Midterms, My Celebrity Roommate, and More
So, as great as college is, midterms suck. It becomes such a hectic time because you try to catch up on all the readings that pile up and do tons of last-minute studying. Plus, the rest of the world doesn't slow down for you...prioritizing becomes essential. Yuck, not worth talking about. So, my roommate John was so ecstatic today. Apparently, he's been chosen to appear in the MTV Reality T.V. show called "Wanna Come In?". The way he described it to me he was going to have this huge part in it. He told me he was going to be this shy guy and that he went on dates with different girls with the goal of getting each one to invite him into her place at the end of the date. Some friends later told me that this was just a cheesy little dating show where people win stuff if the others invite them into their place. Once I thought about this, it seemed weird. I know John would like to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and loves acting and singing, but is being a contestant on a MTV dating show really the way to jump-start your career? Furthermore, John is gay...so why is he going on a heterosexual dating show? I guess he just hasn't told the producers about his true sexuality. He told he that he was approached on campus by a recruiter and then went through a couple of interviews. Whatever...the episode will film in November. By the way, I should be featured in an upcoming episode of the Discovery Channel's show called "Big". They make huge appliances and machines (blenders, treadmills) and do outrageous yet pointless stuff. A couple weeks ago, I was walking to Oceanography and saw a random 12-foot Cappucino Machine. A crowd was gathering and a television crew crowded the area. Later in the day when I returned, I ended up in the front row of the crowd as they turned the coffee maker on and it started spewing. Everyone got free coffee, everyone. I've never seen so much fucking coffee in my life. But, yeah, I actually got a good amount of face time from what I could tell, but we'll have to see how they edit it. Don't worry...If I become an instant celebrity due to this appearance, I will still remain friends with everyone! God, I haven't smoked any pot in like two whole months. It's crazy. And I almost never ever get mind-altered out here in Los Angeles. I guess this is cool as long as I'm having fun. I miss everyone: Stacy, Lily, Corley, Anyone Else who reads this! Sorry if this entry was completely random.
