Chelsey's Birthday (not the last hurrah!)

The last couple of weeks at Bread Loaf are hard, not so much because of the work, but because it is when everyone is finally comfortable in the place and with the people. It becomes a critical time when, in addition to studying and getting good grades, everyone is interested in the last hurrah!

Chelsey’s birthday was the perfect occasion. So we went all out and decided to get away from the Lincoln College campus, eat at a posh restaurant and meet people for drinks afterwards. Chelsey, Nichole, Martha, Tara and I walked to the Brasserie Blanc in Jericho, where we shared appetizers, main dishes and deserts along with two bottles of wine (one white and one red) and incredible conversation.

Afterwards, we met the rest of the students at the Duke of Cambridge, a very trendy (but expensive) bar located about five blocks from the restaurant. Before we were all broke, we decided to leave and meet at a pub where we concluded the night with pitchers of Pimms and English ales.

It was a great birthday but (hopefully) not the last hurrah!
