LDOC (el-doc): noun
1. Translates in college to "Last day of class".
2. Otherwise known for its general mayhem on an idle weekday in the last week of April.
3. It's the day students celebrate by tossing papers and beers to commemorate a semester of hard work (or for some, hardly working).
4. See figure 1

As you well know, I've already had mine, but it's a celebration that I can't help but participate in. As with most events, I never really make it over to celebrate at Duke because my friends in The Dirty (i.e. Durham) don't have the same appreciation for socialization that I do.
I decided to celebrate with my other townie friends at the Preview show for Fridays on the Front Porch, featuring Big Fat Gap. We then proceeded to a new Irish pub in town, Kildaire's, for dinner and I finally was cool enough to get invited to The Dead Mule for the afterparty with Meg, Shea, Seth, & Mark.
If that was the preview to the summer then I'm going to have a very hard time mustering up the motivation to make it to my next LDOC.

The Dead Mule was the craziest after party EVER.
ReplyDeleteEw. More like epic FAIL. Can't say I'm sad that I don't have an exclusive membership. If I'm going to be a member of an exclusive club, it should be a hippy hipster one... um night out at OCSC anyone?
