The last time I had to dress up this formally was probably my own interviews for school! But rather than a business suit, I got to opt for something prettier and more flattering. It's hard to believe that we were the same messy and wet-looking people from the rodeo a couple hours before! The power of showers is not meant to be underestimated.




The food was good too and I promise I'm being honest! Salmon steak, beef fajitas, and even the salad and vinaigrette were no joke! I found glow sticks strewn on all the tables and quickly formed wristlets for everyone at the table. I was ready to dance! I thought the DJ was great for this event and didn't run into too many songs that weren't meant for dancing. I can probably get by around 4 hours of dancing with heels before I need to take a really long break. Luckily for me, the event wasn't going to last any longer than that! I laughed a lot that night; the silly dance moves and funny faces Ben and I were trading while on the dance floor probably contributed to that.

I noticed a photobooth set up in the side of the ballroom and, given my penchant for taking photos, knew I had to walk away from this formal with photos!




When I look back at the photos I took during Match Week, I'm amazed at all the adventures and interactions I had. Surely these are the moments I should cherish rather than focusing on the changes in the future. These photos will definitely decorate the walls of my new apartment. Good times, good memories.
