The Life of Diana: Advanced Student's Dinner

Orginially from Ohio, I went to the big city of New York for about 5 years (mainly for school), and now I am working towards my masters at Cambridge in England. I hope this website gives everyone a taste of what my life is like here... and if nothing else I think you will find it fun and entertaining!!

Advanced Student's Dinner

Tonight was the advanced student's dinner at Churchill... so here are some fun pictures!! I got a gown tonight, so be sure to check out my cool gown in the pictures. Also, if you want to print any of the pictures out, let me know and I will send you the good quality versions, these ones are reduced quality so that people with dialup can view them in a reasonable amount of time too.

Alex and Tim enjoying the wine. A new thing I learned today is when an invitation says 7.00 for 7.30 they mean wine is served at 7 and dinner at 7.30

Me and Lucy looking gooorgeous.

Colin and Dan were BOTH sporting giraffe ties tonight. Notice that Dan's has yellow giraffes which he nicely matched with a smart yellow shirt, and Colin has blue giraffes on his tie which beautifully match his blue shirt. Way to go guys!! You both get the official Diana fashion award for the evening.

Serena and me after dinner... I missed you... dinner was sooo long!!!! hehe my arm is still in the "dinner hole" of the gown. I find it really funny that there are two arm holes... one for normal wear, and one for when you are eating... because of course it is so totally normal to eat dinner in gowns... actually at Cambridge it really is normal.

Shoop and Ramsees.... I love this picture.... so many pretty colors in it :) I LOOOVE your dress Shoop!!!

Alex and Joannah (YAY got the spelling right this time I think).

Awww what a cute italian couple.... sniff sniff :( .... it brings tears to my eyes!!

Lucy and me... hehe we can never manage a good photo together Lucy!!

Lucy and me... notice my arms are in the non-eating hole now hehe compare it to the hold from before.

Mateo had on a black velvet blazer (all the way on the right)... poor Mateo lost his voice, feel better!!!

Nice silky blue tie!! I love everyones fashion sense in Cambridge!!!

Serena trying on my gown... or should we call her bat woman??

Our cool bartender tonight was Simon!! YAAAY!!!

Tim and Stephanie.... closeup and personal! :)

I was trying to get a candid shot of Lucy and David, but Lucy saw me!!

Overall photo of the MCR bar... I have never seen it this packed before!! So many new exciting people!!! I hope all of these people keep coming around all year.
