Golden Apple Fun





This Saturday Bob and I were able to get out, relax, and have a little fun at Creighton University's Medical School Golden Apple Awards. This event takes place every year, where they recognize students and faculty for outstanding service to their community and students. The night started out with cocktail hour (2 free drink tickets) and then onto dinner. The food was just okay and the service was very odd. You needed to hold on to your glass so they wouldn't take it off the table, even if there was clearly plenty left. One of the waiters even filled up Angela's half full wine glass with water-wasn't that nice of him? The dessert was horrible. It didn't taste bad, but nobody could figure out what it was. The evening continued on to the awards where a 4th year stood and talked for way way too long. The program was so long that we were all sitting for 3 full hours, with no glasses on our table to even sip water. Then the night turned in to much fun of drinking and dancing. They even had a photo booth where you could get free pics taken.
This event was lots of fun, besides the speaker & food. The friends made it all the better. I am so glad they had this for the Med students, especially the M2s that came. We are under a month left until boards and the studying is just crazy, they all needed a little break. And you know their significant others needed one too!
