When your
children go to university, you guess where it will lead them, try to envisage
what kind of career will engage them.
But wasn’t one of the arguments for sending them in the first place that
it would broaden their horizons and offer them new opportunities. A few weeks ago, somebody I know put up a
surprised post connected to a YouTube video of her daughter (amongst others at
Lancaster Uni) dancing the Harlem Shake with a plastic colander on her
head. You go, girl!
My own
surprised moment came last week when my oldest son sent me a video entitled me doing the KUJAWIAK.
Turns out it was a practice run for the UEA Go Global
party – the Polish dance team was short a member and asked Pascoe to fill in
with the courtship dance. Since he is
neither Polish nor a folk-dancer, I’m not sure how this happened, (unless,
horrors, he is famed for courtship) but the seemingly surreal appearance of
this emphasises to me that in his three years at university, Pascoe has built
his own life beyond my knowing. That’s
what I call success.
What videos will Perran and Carenza send back – the Harlem
Shake is already old hat, or should I say old colander.
