CONversion

How does one go from a WASP to a WCC?  The transition isn’t really that hard.

1. Both are accustomed to bland food

WASP:  Thanks to Mum’s lack of cooking skills (in contrast to her shopping skills!)

WCC: Courtesy of the “cooks” in CDR

2.  Khakis are a wardrobe staple

WASP: Do I really need to elaborate?  From your first school uniform to your Beach Club staple with blue blazer

WCC:  The brands may be different (Polo vs Dickie’s) but the look is the same

3.  Passion for sports

WASP:  You may have grown up on tennis, croquet and polo but you enjoy any competitive sport

WCC:  Fancy a game of soccer?  Baseball?  Badminton?  Even card games become fierce at Camp

4. Who doesn’t enjoy a good party?

WASP: Entertaining is in your blood since your first recital as a child to your epic rush parties as social chair

WCC:  Now you channel your skills into pot luck bruncheons and supper parties as well as weekend movie nights with all of the trimmings

5.  You love your spa time

WASP:  Weekly facials, massages and pedicures…ahhhhhhh

WCC:  It may not be the same luxurious lavender scented environment but you definitely can maintain your beauty glow with regular scrubs, masks, threading and mani/pedis

6.  You like conversing in many tongues

WASP:  Who can forget their semester abroad and the delights of speaking the language of romance?

WCC: Brush off your High School Spanish and College French and practice with the women/men in your midst as well as learning a new language (or two) to maximize your sabbatical
