So Andy already posted a bit of the video, but here is a formal re-cap of the night.

First off, thanks to Stormhoek for the free wine.

The night started off with a great vegetarian chili dinner provided by the host, which went incredibly well with the wine. I’d have to think this was planned, all that Top Chef that we’ve been watching finally paid off.

The rest of the night consisted of the talent show, with talents provided by the guests in attendance.

The talents started off with Nate and Nicole’s re-enactment of one of the student films that we worked on this past year. Their rendition of “Move Me” was something to be witnessed.

Up next, Andy performed an illusion that left all of us baffled to this day. Somehow he managed to tie his shoes without his hands. Incredible.

This exceptional trick was followed by the recorder stylings of Elyse, which provided for the funniest moment I’ve experienced in recent memory. After playing “When the Saints Go Marching In”. She also did a tarot card reading for a few people which gave us all a glimpse into the future.

The video portion of the night was to follow as we watched childhood videos from Celeste and Nate, and an awesome Star Wars parody from Andy. True geekiness was exhibited in this portion of the night as Celeste played a ring leader, Nate was a Piano teacher on crack, and Andy played a Jedi warrior.

We then moved back to the performances outside as Nathan read some amazing poetry that he had written himself, which was recieved exceptionally well by everyone in attendance.

Jonny then had the group in an all out sing along to Third Eye Blind’s “Jumper” which brought everyone together in a Geeky embrace.

The capper of the talent portion of the night was Jennifer’s amazing cheer that she did in praise of all of us who had recently graduated.

Or so we thought…turns out the Stormhoek wine did its job and got most people pretty intoxicated which led to impromptu talents throughout the rest of the night, mostly at the hands of Nate, who performed an interpretive dance that he had done for a high school talent show.

The night was full of laughs and total geekiness. Here’s a little video we made.

…and some pictures.

Thanks again to Stormhoek.
