modern art and a haircut
today i went to the museum of modern art with this girl laura who's in my italian conversational class. the same girl who ate thanksgiving dinner with me too. it was really cool. the art was just amazing and reminded me of y i love design. there were pieces there that really took me back to my design foundations classes. i loved it. laura and i talked about stuff and it was nice to be able to connect with someone who understood, well understood better than anyone here, my point of view and how i like to do things. then laura and i decided that we wanted to do something on the spur of the moment. we got our hair cut. we went to this place that had bright orange walls and yes the people there spoke english. it was wonderful. the guy did a good job with my hair. so far it looks really nice, but i havent washed it or styled it myself yet. im debating getting gelati tonight or not. i dont think i will. kim, lauren and kims family are all going and i kinda want to have some peace and quiet here while theyre gone. even thought gelati with a chocolate shell ontop sounds good, so does a brownie with pb and chocolate ontop. ill go tomorrow night i think for gelati. blah. my roommates are pissing me off to now end right now. i was woken up this morning to "omg theres chocolate all over the place!" this was in response to my chocolate melting to for the brownies i made. i thought i had claened it all up, but apparently i didnt do a perfect job for miss perfect lauren. so then they proceed to talk loudly about me being messy. ok, there could not have been that much chocolate there b/c i think i woul dhave noticed giant globs of chocolate on the washing machine or something. secondly, i clean up my messes in the kitchen from cooking all the time, and usually i do it right after i eat. i dont wanna hear about me being messy in the kitchen. lauren washes the countertop(which we use like a cutting board pretty much) with the same sponge we use to wash the dishes. that is not santiary at all! i wash it off with papertowels and soap and water. and now 3rdly, who the hell do they think they are talking and treating me that way? that is so rude and the only people i know who act that way are the old farts at hum v. im sry that i am not perfect, once again, and that i didnt get all the chocolate up. its not mold, or nasty leftover seafood or something, its chocolate for pete's sake. god, i was so infuriated. then i thought ok linds, take a deep breathe and be the bigger person and go in there and just say your sorry about missing a few spots. lauren was such a fucking bitch about it. just they way she said things to me, so rude. then i got my haircut today and its noticable b/c my layers are soo much shorter. i walk in and they barely said hi to me and said nothing about my hair either. damn bitches. they treat this apartment like its only theirs and im a visiter. well, i have work to do tonight and i NEED the table and quiet. they need to respect that and go somewhere else. i would do it for them, so they need to start working around me too. also, tonight theyre discussing religion at the dinner table (which they took over andl eft no room for me so i ate in front of the computer like an outcast). they said somethings that i know are their opinions and should not affect me, but they were slightly offensive for someone who was raised religious and still has some religious beliefs. they were saying how all religion is made up but not talking about it like oh its just my opinion though. they talked about it in a way that was saying theyre right and that everyone else is brainwashed by religion. i should not take offense b/c it is their opinion, but i do b/c it is saying that i am a dub brainwashed person b/c i believe there is a higher being and purpose other than myslef in this world. theyre also saying how we cant tell others that theyre wrong b/c theyre beliefs are diff. this is very true, but theyre saying it in a way that we cannot tell the muslims that theyre wrong for treating the women like shit, b/c thats their beliefs. i am sorry, i feel that we can tell certain people their system is wrong when it hurts others greatly. i am very peeved today and not happy with the behavior of my roommates at all. if they did what they do now and talk in the volume they do now in my house my mom would have kicked their asses. one good thing about my mom right there, i was raised to respect others and always be aware of how i am behaving. thank you and this ends my journal update. i may have to vent more later, but for now i want some damn brownies. ciao ragazzi.
