I just returned from my meeting at the beautiful Sage Bistro on campus. It's the locale for our Friday night banquet that's happening during Orientation Week and my favourite lunch spot on campus (when my dad is paying). It got me really excited for Orientation Week which is less than two weeks away! Besides the rolling mountain landscape and the Pacific backdrop, I could picture all the connections that are going to be made in that room shortly. Some of the people that I met during Orientation Week have become some of my closest friends and I'm excited for all of you to meet one another and have the same experience over fresh spaghetti bolognese, four cheese ravioli and tiramasu! (Yes, I just finalized the menu...)
Another event that's been in the forefront of my mind lately (and not because it's hard to plan) is "The First Lecture with Anne Giardini". Besides being the president of Weyerhaeuser, an active member of her community and mother of three children, she's a best-selling author. I bought her latest novel "Advice for Italian Boys" last week-end and have been enjoying reading it while picturing her hectic life as she wrote it and worked full-time. If you need a good read before school starts, I definitely recommend it or perhaps her other novel "The Sad Truth about Happiness" which I haven't had the pleasure of reading...yet!
If you have any questions about any of the Orientation activities/events/schedule or pasta give me a call (604) 827-3552 or email: orientation@law.ubc.ca
