Multicultural Celebration Weekend

<p>I’m staying with a student too!</p>

<p>lol, @skimmy92, its the facebook group event for those going to the MultiCultural Weekend Celebration. It was made by merrymelodys.</p>

<p>lol ok I thought I was missing something hah I joined too:)</p>

<p>Just RSVPed. I’m also staying with a current student. Sooo excited to meet everyone:)</p>

<p>Yay sleeping bags??</p>

<p>Wooh uncomfy floors (taste my sarcasm :/) But I guess it’s pretty epic for being free haha</p>

<p>I was all ready to come to Celebration weekend. I had my flights booked and the weekend cleared off on my calendar…</p>

<p>Then today I found out I have been named a regional finalist in a research competition and I have been invited to DC to present and compete for national finalist… and that weekend is the same as Multicult weekend.</p>

<p>Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely ecstatic about my achievement, but it’s just a shame that the two events have to conflict.</p>

<p>Oh well… hopefully they’ll excuse the cancellation fees on the plane tickets since it’s a completely legitimate reason.</p>

<p>Ohh Matcat, that’s really unfortunate. Yeah, I just signed up for the Multicultural event and really hope that that won’t end up happening to me…</p>

<p>Pretty darn apprehensive about signing up for a flight that is pretty much going to require me to make two stops in the middle of the night in order to get to St. Louis (Alaska sucks).</p>

<p>Ahh, I’m so pumped for this!
I’m a little nervous about staying overnight with a student though. I’ve heard some horror stories about overnight stays :confused:
But I guess there’s a first time for everything!</p>

<p>I went to about 4 or 5 overnight diversity programs in the fall, so I hope I get a good student host! looking forward to meeting everyone :D</p>

<p>Are most of you going by yourselves or with parents/siblings? Rooming with a current student would be fun, but I think my parents also want to come along. (I’m guessing that WashU doesn’t pay for their tickets lol)</p>

<p>I’m going by myself</p>

<p>I’m going by myself as well</p>

<p>By myself as well</p>

<p>By my self.</p>

<p>How am I going to lug a sleeping bag on the plane? O_o</p>

<p>Hmm, I’m thinking what if WashU invites you guys for the WILD weekend…</p>

<p>When is WILD? what happens</p>

<p>Going by myself too.</p>

<p>WILD is on April 29th. </p>

<p>WILD is a concert event held in the Brookings Quadrangle twice a year. It’s probably one of the biggest social events on campus. Last WILD we had Wale and Major Lazer. Couple of years ago, we had Black-Eyed Peas. This coming WILD Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros will come.</p>

<p>Generally speaking, Spring WILD is not as big as Fall WILD, but it’s still a great event to attend</p>

<p>Anyone else get the itinerary? The schedule looks like soooo much fun. Can’t wait:)</p>

<p>Soooo much opportunity for food! I will be in heaven :D.</p>
