SO...there's good news and there's bad news. Good news first. I got a call today from the professor I had this summer for Sex and Society, and she invited me to be on the safezone (Suffolk U's GLBT awareness program) committee. This is especially cool, because until now it has just been faculty, but they asked me to join them to offer a student perspective. This is especially awesome, because I will not only be working along side my super cool teacher, but also my friend and mentor Paul Korn, AND...the director of diversity services at the university. I feel so privileged to be able to do this, since this is what I want to do with my life, but I wasn't sure how to go about getting the experience I needed, and now I've found a way! This is such a great opportunity, and I can't wait to get involved. Yay.

Now the bad news, and this is really bad. Remember that kid that was crazy in love with me, who called all the time? The one who wanted to take me to the Beastie Boys concert, and drive to North Carolina to take me out to dinner? Well, my friend Chris called me and told me that he had hung himself today. I know it's really "hanged", but I don't care about grammar; I think that sounds rather off. Anyway, so this is really terrible. I'm not completely surprised, since most of my school's alumni is capable of doing the same thing, and this boy clearly had some issues. It is really sad, anyway you look at it. There is a slight chance that its not true, since rumors fly like crazy with amongst the people at that school, and yes, even about things as serious as this, but I don't know. This is just terrible.

I'm going to go have dinner...then working tonight. Then tomorrow. Then tomorrow night. Yummy.
