Wherein I overuse the word “impress”
April 30, 2006
We had a sorority picnic yesterday. Two picnics in a row. I’m a lucky girl.
I was quite excited to finally be able to bring my grandfather to school. He was impressed with campus. And the fact that he was impressed impresses me. Because he’s rarely impressed. And campus isn’t very impressive.
Yeah.
But it was interesting merging my home and college life together for the day. Of course there were numerous new names thrown about, and the forgetting thereafter, but it was nice having a bunch of my favorite people together in the same place. And the weather was beautiful.
Most of the sorority was there, including my greek big brother. My grandfather was understandably perplexed.
One more week of classes.

Wow, I could never bring either of my grandfathers to visit college. I’m so incredibly distant from my extended family. But luckily I can blame my parents for moving us from Massachusetts to Tennessee for that one!

Hahaha, how neat! Did he enjoy the picnic? Like Emma, I could never bring my extended family anywhere… I barely know them. Which is a shame, really…

Haha, yes. He had a wonderful time. Awww, that is a shame! I’m not really close with most of my extended family, but I’ve always had a good relationship with my grandfather.

How sweet of your to being your grandfather to school! He must have had a great time! I would love to bring my grandparents, both maternal and paternal to visit my school. But my maternal grand dad has passed away, and the other one’s wheelchair bound so there’s the problem of moving around. :(

I bet your grandfather won that starring contest!
