end-of-year celebrations

How’s everyone doing? I can’t believe school is over in just two short weeks – I’m almost not ready to let go of junior year. Last week I reflected on the year, but today, I wanted to share with y’all the crazy events I’ve been attending! I don’t think I’ve ever been invited to so many cool things in such a short period amount of time; they’re mostly end-of-the-year banquets held by student organizations, but it still gives me and excuse to dress up. The weather’s been absolutely lovely too (that photo above is from my run to Gasworks Park!!).

Two weeks ago, I attended a spotlight dinner held by my business school: it’s where we highlight faculty, students, and the organizations for the year. It was a pretty nice event! I’m wearing my grey dress from Banana Republic (old) with a huge bow in the back. This was the perfect event to wear it to!

Last week, my business school held a Pub Crawl and I went mostly in part because my student group was running it, but also because I’ve never been on a pub crawl! I showed up late because I was at a scholarship reception in Bellevue, but for the time I was at the pub crawl, I had a great time meeting new people and catching up with old friends.

The next day, I was invited to a social for one of the accounting firms and y’all, it was at the Columbia Tower Club!! I’ve been to the Skyview Observatory (way cheaper than the Space Needle, and it has a view of the Space Needle itself), but the club is two floors higher and has an event space. Before attending, I had heard to visit the women’s restroom – like it was a must. Curious, I went, and indeed, I see why:

Is that a view or what?!

Later that night, I went to my good accounting friend’s sorority formal and danced the night away in Capitol Hill. The next day, I went to a business fraternity banquet with one of my close friends in my sorority. It was so fun! I wasn’t able to get good pictures at the venue in South Lake Union, but I did take a mirror selfie before I left the house:

Spring quarter is never-ending with the banquets and celebrations – in fact, I’m going to another one tonight, lol. Looking at my calendar, it looks like tonight’s is my last one, but I will be heading to a gala in a few weeks (eep, that means long dresses!!). Thank goodness though because it’s definitely time to buckle up and study for finals for the next two weeks.

What have you been celebrating these past few weeks? As always, thanks for reading!
