Stage 1: The Countdown
Spring weekend is supposed to be the best weekend of the year, right? Day drinking, frolicking on Martyrs and free food! Weâve been looking forward to this since Halloween festivities ended. What could possibly go wrong?
Â
Stage 2: The Disappointment
Cartel? Really, CAB? When I saw this announcement I felt like Leo after he realized he didnât win an Oscar⊠again. Just disappointed and betrayed by my peers.
Â
Stage 3: The Prep
Our livers have been preparing for this all semester, people. Puking is not an option. And if you do puke, you better be prepared to rally.
Â
Stage 4: Kegs ân Eggs
Did you know, kegs ân eggs is actually latin for, âlet’s drink an excessive amount of beer before 10 a.m. and find the nearest bacon, egg and cheese?â Look it up.
Â
Stage 5: The Darty
Spring Weekend darties are the James Franco of day parties. Sunshine, tons of drinks, and we get to temporarily forget about our our plummeting GPA’s! Rage on, fellow Rams.
Â
Stage 6: The Concert
The concert can be fun if you: A) actually like the bands perfoming (cricketsâŠ) B) are too drunk to care about (or realize) whatâs going on OR C) want to enjoy the plethora of free food. Which brings me to my next stageâŠ.
Â
Stage 7: The Hunger
Food, people. Free. Food. Food=Happiness. Happiness is the ultimate goal in life, right? Therefore, Pizza is life. I donât make the rules.
Â
Stage 8: The Nap
Spring weekend is basically 48 hours of excessive partying. So, in order to remain alive, you should take at least one nap. But, this nap should be followed by copious amounts of Red Bull. Make that vodka Red Bulls.
Â
Stage 9: The Under the Tent Dance
This may be your only time to show off your dance moves to the entire Fordham community. Donât be a wallflower. Twerk, moonwalk, whip out the Carlton. Get jiggy with it, my friends.
Â
Stage 10: The Blur
Whether you end up at a house party or the bars, the rest of the night is pretty much a blur from that point on. Make sure you always have a buddy to keep from getting lost. And by buddy, I mean the guy you’re going home with.
Â
Stage 11: The Hangover
Sunday after spring weekend might possibly be one of the worst hangovers youâve ever encountered. Prepare your nightstand with water and Gatorade to help save your decomposing body. And if that doesnât help, hereâs the number for Peteâs delivery: (718) 733-7416.
Â
Stage 12: The Pride
Whether itâs your first or final spring weekend, youâve lived to tell the tale. So go ahead and post those Instagram pictures and tell everyone your pointless drunken memories. Fordham spring weekend outshines all other schoolsâ, even if our bands do suck. Rejoice, fellow Rams. Rejoice.
