* Both my initiations - into Sigma Iota Phi and later into AEPhi
* Going to IHOP after pref and seeing people gawk as a group of beautiful women in black formal dresses and heels and full makeup and hair took over a few tables and proceeded to wolf down pancakes and coffee
* Meeting my husband. The funny thing is, I didn't go to college for my MRS degree, it was just an added bonus
* Singing with my a cappella group
* Hacking, including Orange Tours and sodium drops
* Drinking games and beer bashes on Burton Third
* Hosting July 4 parties - when we were grad students (and engaged) DH and I landed an awesome apartment in married-student housing that had a perfect view of the Charles River fireworks
* That random night when I got together with the Indian women who lived on my floor, and we cooked a feast - kheema, dhal, basmati rice, aloo gobi...
* And the other random night when I prepared a similar meal for my sorority sisters, none of whom was familiar with Indian food (but they liked it)
* The time my floormate from Trinidad came in one afternoon all excited for his first "snowstorm" - which was actually a flurry. (That's the closest I can get to a snow day experience.)
* Graduation and turning my brass rat around! (It took a while to get used to putting it on the other way.)
