Rough start

(01/18/11 10:45pm)

Our tenting group's first weekend in K-Ville was about as smooth as the FSU game (too soon?). On Friday, our first night, I felt the full effects of sleeping amongst an eleven-person mass inside our six-person tent. One of the member's of the group then failed to show for tent check the following evening, meaning we could not miss another for the next few weeks. Naturally, we missed the very next tent check as well, pushing our group into the waiting list. Oh, and I managed to catch a fever too.



Matt and Kim Interview Post-K-Ville Performance

Topics ranged from their recently banned video "5K" to Matt's back brace to their "Lessons Learned" from stripping down in Times Square and to their upcoming tour in Europe. Enjoy:

That must be what it looked like, anyway. That was certainly how it appeared when we watched the class above ours graduate. But for many of us newly minted Duke alumni—and particularly the premedical kind—this “happily ever after” has a name: the gap year.
