X Homecoming '05
I found myself before 9am chasing my peanut butter on toast with a Smirnoff Ice. I'd finished my 4 pack by 10:00 and had started on my Malibu. Tipsy by 11 and then down for brunch at 11:30. Didn't think I was hungry but judging by how fast I ate my food, I have to think otherwise. Next, I somehow made my way down to Chuggles to meet my Dad and brother who had just arrived. Watched them eat lunch however I could not manage anything else in my system. They dropped off my nice huge suitcase care package of the stuff that I could not live without for another week (when I could bring it back myself). Showed the lil bro around the res, drank a little more and then headed down to the football game. Don't think sitting in the intense sun was such a good idea. Wish I could have headed back for a nice afternoon nap but had to take advantage of the parental unit being in town to go out for some serious food shopping (would have done that Sunday if we actually had Sunday shopping). Then it was off to dinner...REAL FOOD!!! Never tasted anything so good as my fish and chips (was it actually the best fish and chips ever or just great compared to mealhall food???) By this point I had sobered myself up and returned to my res to drink some more with the girls. After spending forever debating plans (take the Trews tickets I won from intramural football, or hang out around) my roommate finally convinced me to go to the Pub with her. What a horrible idea. We stood in line forever and then everyone we met up with decided to head over to Pats (including my bro) while I stayed back with Emily to try our luck at getting into Pub. We were right at the front and they started letting in the football team and bar staff (VIP? WTF???) The hour and a half in line wasn't so bad in comparison to being squished against the bars beside me. I couln't breath, it was ridiculous. I thought I was going to have bruises along my stomach the next day. I don't know why Emily and I didn't leave earlier but finally around 12 we went back to Chillis. In a bad mood, I tried to drink my sorrows away (haha, like what I had left would do anything for me). Chilled with some of the girls down the hall and went back to my room around 2:30 to find this guy from macneil (who is sort of creepy and totally drunk) chattin with my brother. When I finally got him out of my room so I could go to bed, he wished me a great nite and a sober and hangover free morning (if I was to wake up hungover the next morning I would have been amazed). All in all, I have to admit, as much as the day wasn't as good as it was talked up to be, I still did enjoy myself! (and I got my dad and brother's leftover beers which is KEY! anyway to save money!!!)
