The morning after

10 points if you know who these people are!

Yesterday, all most of the Kin froshees agreed to wear their frosh shirts today.  And so a good chunk of my Kin 190 lecture came to class sporting a black and green shirt, making them instantly recognizable to all.  Obviously, all of us that went to frosh felt the solidarity that comes from a shared experience.  Frosh makes best buddies, right?

Well.

I couldn’t remember anyone’s name!  I recognized faces, but there were only a handful of people I could put names to.  Or sometimes it was the other way around, and I heard names but I couldn’t connect them to a face.  So today, I settled for awkward little waves and re-introductions.  At least I didn’t try to (wrongly) guess someone’s name.
