So... most epic night... ever? Hahahahaa.
So me, Lindz and Mike all went to the mall via shuttle to go Christmas shopping. So we head over to the mall at around 730 and walk around for a while making our random purchases. We have our fun times and laughs. Then we decide that it's time to leave. And we go to where the shuttle picks us up and wait. And wait. And wait. And wait. Hahaha. So we decide... yeah. The shuttle's not coming.
What do we decide to do? We decide to walk. It's not that bad of a walk, right? And Mike, you know the way right?
Wrong.
So we begin our epic adventure by walking through the parking lot in order to get back to the street. We gaze at the fence which we for some reason find to be absolutely majestic. We go on a little trail, find some beautiful Christmas trees, laugh about dragging them all the way back to school, and then get onto the main road. We walk down the street and turn left and start walking down the road. We walk past the Merrit and then we realize. We have no idea where the fuck we are.
We laugh for a minute and then we get concerned. Uhh, how are we getting back to school? Then I find my phone which has GPS in it. I plug in shu's address and it gives us the street way to get back to school. And it tells us to turn around. And get on the Merrit. Lindsay's freaking out because of the cars and we're all walking through the snow and the leaves and sinking into the ground. It's so cold and we just want t navigate our way back to school.
So we then get onto the Merrit. We're walking alongside the highway and it's a bit scary being so close to the cars, and then we remember how all of us always laugh at the people that are doing exactly what we were doing. We see a sign for exit 47, Park Ave. Where our school is. 1 Mile. Okay, we can do this! We can get back :)
So this is when we start enjoying ourselves. We try to walk on the outside of the guardrail and run into all sorts of grass and brush and other random crap, all covered in snow and going now up to our mid calves. Battling our way through, we then decide to step back to the outside. Even though it's more dangerous, we decide it's better than battling through the underbrush. Hahaha. We're wandering, then, of course, burst into song! Build Me Up, Buttercup, All Star, Bohemian Rhaspsody, The National Anthem, Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades, 500 Miles and many more as we wandered. Until we go to the signs saying Park Ave 1/2 Mile and Park Ave Exit: Univ. of Bridgeport and Sacred Heart University. I wanted pictures in front to the signs but we didn't have a camera :(.
So then we found a mini trail that lead to what looked like a regular road right before Park Ave. So we decide to go through the little bit of woods to go through the hole we found in the fence. Mike leads the way.... and gets caught in a thorn bush. Haha. He detangles himself and holds back the bush for me and Lindsay. We go uphill to the fence, get on top of it and then jump over some more thorns, to get us to a road... which was a court. Only thing we could think 'Fuck me'. So I look at my GPS again and apparently they think our car magically jumped off the Merrit and onto this random court in the middle of nowhere. Amazing. Hahaha. So it gives us the directions to get to shu. Only 2 mins (driving) away. And we're near Old Town Road! A road that leads straight tooooo....PARK AVE! YAY! WE CAN GET BACK!
So then we start singing again. This time Soco Ameretto Lime. THE. PERFECT. SONG. At least for this event.
Passed out on the overpass,
Sunday best and broken glass.
Broken down from the bikes and bars.
Suspended like spirits over speeding cars.
We were going over an overpass, with cars on the Merrit doing like 80, hahah
You and me were kings over the parkway tonight.
going over a parkway!
And tonight will go on forever while we,
Walk around this town like we own the streets,
We def. were walking like we owned this place.
And stay awake through summer like we own the heat.
Singing..
Everybody wake up.
(Wake up.)
It's time to get down.
(Everybody, everybody wake up, it's time to get down.)
And when I pass the bottle back to Pete,
On the overpass tonight, I bet we laugh.
I'm gonna stay eighteen forever,
We're all 18!
(Cut me open.)
So we can stay like this forever.
(Sun poisoned.)
And we'll never miss a party,
'Cause we keep them going constantly.
(This offer stands forever.)
And we'll never have to listen,
(New haircut.)
To anyone about anything,
(New bracelet.)
'Cause it's all been done and it's all been said.
(Eyeliner.)
We're the coolest kids and we take what we can get.
Hell Yeah. To all of that!
(Wait forever.)
The hell out of this town,
Find some conversation.
The low fuel light's been on for days.
It doesn't mean anything.
I've got another 500,
'Nother 500 miles,
Before we shut this engine down.
Walking for 500 milessssssss
We shut it down.
We shut you down.
Chorus
(You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.)
Eighteen forever.
(Your stomach's filled up but you're starved for conversation.)
So we can stay like this forever.
(You're spending all your nights growing old in your bed.)
And we'll never miss a party,
(And your tearin up your photos 'cause you wanna forget... it's over.)
'Cause we keep them going constantly.
(You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.)
And we'll never have to listen,
(Your stomachs filled up but you're starved for conversation.)
To anyone about anything.
'Cause it's all been done,
(You're spending all your nights growing old in your bed.)
And it's all been said.
(And your tearin' up your photos cause you wanna forget... it's over.)
We're the coolest kids and we take what we can get.
You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.
You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.
You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.
You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.
You're just jealous cause we're young and in love.
You're just jealous....
Me and Mike <3
So then we continue our walk towards Old Town Road, singing Blink 182. Get to Old Town singing more and laughing and just being crazy and running. Until finally.....
PARK AVE!
Omg, we're SOOOO effing happy when we finally get there. We start screaming and yelling about seeing North, and the rest of our campus. We take pictures with mike's camera phone and the snow with me and Lindz. We';re happy and dancing and continuing to sing and laugh. We almost start a dance battle with some random guys from Roncalli. Hahaha. Then we finally reach Roncalli... home.. at last. We go inside and go straigh to my room, relish the warmth and pee. All is wonderful. Next is fooding, then chilling in my room and watching Superbad while I write this epic entry :).
Amazing times with the mad chill shu kids <333.
