This evening was the meet and greet dinner for our Chicago cohort. Even
though we had already been acquainted through our dinner at One Market, I
was looking forward to getting to talk to our cohort in a more relaxed
setting. Unfortunately, Jae-An was unable to join us because of a
concert, but the rest of the cohort-Brandon, Aisha, myself and our
chaperone Alana Scott-all met at Fat Apple's restaurant in El Cerrito.
Dinner was a pleasant affair, with good food and comfortable
conversation. We talked about a variety of topics, including our trip to
Chicago this summer, movie interests, and places that we've traveled. I
learned that Aisha grew up in Pakistan, that Brandon likes comedy
movies, and that Alana's mother is an elementary school teacher. Alana
also informed us of the other colleges we'll be visiting on our trip:
Washington University in St. Louis, Northwestern, and Notre Dame. I
don't know much about any of these schools, so it will certainly be
interesting to visit them. I really enjoy the company of my fellow
cohort members and had a great time getting to know them better. I can
tell we are all very excited for our trip to Chicago this summer!
Our meet and greet dinner was a fun, sociable event. Thank you to the ILC and Alana for organizing it!
