If you’re really invested you start early in the week
Although the formal kick-off is Brunswick Quad on Friday, where everyone will compliment each other on their sundresses
You’ll probably meet a visiting guy with cool stories about life at a big university
But you’ll draw a hard line if he tries to follow you and your girls around
After dinner and a nap, somebody might suggest heading over to 3LAU—but if it’s only 9:30
If you get cornered by a tipsy senior at brunch the next day, just smile and nod
After brunch everyone will head over to Whittier Field, and Guster fans crowd near the stage
Hoodie Allen comes on and you start dancing with your friends
Then realize you are dancing by yourself
But it’s fine because you know where to find your girls: on the picnic blanket having a heart to heart
Dining sets up the barbecue and you wait until the line dies down to grab a cheeseburger
Which turns out to be a bad idea but there’s always pasta salad
Pine Street is a lot of this; however, you go anyway for the sake of tradition
Because come Monday you’re gonna feel like this when you remember that essay you put off
But until then, you know what to do if someone so much as mentions the word “homework”
