saturday i pledged... they blindfolded all of the pledges with our own ties and we walked into a room... i don't think i am permitted to elaborate any more... so after the pledging we went to eat at an italian restaurant and after that we partied... most of the pledges drank champaign, though there were a suprisingly large amount of people who didn't drink... the frat is very restrained and responsible, atleast compared to the sotries i ahve heard from other frats... when it was my turn i just snapped the bottle upright and drank... unfortunately this caused the bottle to fountain and it was a mess... i went out later with two other people... the two of them were tripping while i only drank... the boy i was with was very naseus so he stayed in his room while i walked around wiht the girl till six in the morning... the streets were empty ad the expeirence was very dream like... i think being around people who are tripping rubs off on you... the scene at six int he morning was most memorable... we sat were in the penn campus talking about here past boyfriends sitting under a lamp light... while the conversation was interesting, it was the atmosphere that most stongly stayed with me... i wouldn't even know how to begin to describe it...
sunday i went clubbing... i went with a bunch of people to shampoo... at first things were slow, and no one was dancing... but me and one of the boys (well actually the only boy who came... i think he was the one who organised the whole thing) just danced anyway... the music at first was mediocre remixed disco, but then it became like hard house and it was a lot of fun... the dream machine was turned on and even though i didn't drink or take anything i really got into it... there were lot's of interesting looking people there who i wish i could have talked to, but i was sober so i didn't dare to... we left the club early (at like 1:30) because it was a school night... after a while standing on the corner, we took a taxi back, and i realised i had a 400 word essay due for 'university 101', which somehow slipped my mind... i was so sore after the club and i was feeling a little naseus so even sitting down to do the thing was a feet of selfdiscipline... what is worse is that the essay had to be submitted online by 7 am, so i stayed up, reread a story and wrote the essay... everything worked out well though because the professor guarantees an 'A' as long as you submit it on time and, because i still got my 9 hours of sleep...
