my loooong weekend, by michael petracca
second to last weekend at school. awesome. monday we drank wine. tuesday was a "day off." wednesday we went to TKE, it was alrite... greg was there so he smoked us up. thursday we went to Sig Nu of course. it was pretty typical but fun and they played semi-charmed life and kelly clarkson over and over. yay! haha.
friday was going to be a night of rest because this weekend is all day and night partys. so we decided to go to the movies last night, we saw "alot like love" it was a chick flick but a good one at that. afterwards i went to becky's house to drink (so much for the night off), listen to music, and play darts. then we went to the bar (again, so much for taking the night off) and i saw some people there i knew, danced some, etc. after that we went to mia's and then arethusa afterhours (...so much for the night off...), and i spent the night. it was a very great night... saw alot of daga people i hadn't really hung out with in a while, partied a little, and chilled at bethie's house.
saturday (today) we went to GFR for breakfast, then i hung out at daga for a little while. i was really excited for today... the idea was to go to omega and party during the day, then go to spring fest, then back out to party. (spring fest is a day where they have bands, food, and most importantly, inflatable toys... such as a boxing ring, gladiators, sumo wrestling, a jumping house thingy, and an obstacle course). so around 2pm we went to Omega, but the band wasn't there because they got in a car accident. we played beer pong and pound, and i was so drunk at like 4 in the afternoon. i couln't stop laughing i was having the best time. there should be some really good pictures once i get them loaded from my camera to my computer. after we were done at omega we headed back to campus for spring fest, which was inside cuz it was raining, unfortunately. me and chris murphy had been planning on boxing each other for days, so we both were trashed from Omega and pumped up to fight. we got in the ring, put on the gigantic gloves, and went at it. we toppled over the net thing and out of the ring, onto the ground, and kept fighting. needless to say, the workers got pissed. they wouldn't let us play anymore, and to make a long story short, we argued with them alot, and they still wouldn't let us back on. they were teenagers working for an INFLATABLE TOY COMPANY yet they were still anal and power-tripping. they were like "we can't let you back on this, you're not sober and you didn't follow the rules." they ended up threatening to call UP and blah blah blah. so instead we went on the inflatable obstacle course thing, where the workers actually let us participate-- basically you raced against someone, and each person had their own entrance. you had to climb up a little wall thing, squeeze through a little space, go through this curvey tunnel thing, climb a wall, and go down a slide... it was actually pretty sweet... only it was hard to do it drunk. when i raced bethie we stopped in the middle where the two paths crossed and we had some "fun"... the workers got mad and told us to hurry up and get out. then i raced chris murphy and i was totally kicking his ass. i was at the last part, which is where you had to climp up the wall thing and then go down the slide (feet-first according to the RULES)... but chris CHEATED and crossed over to my side, and before i could go down and win, he grabbed onto me and held me back. we ended up rolling, tumbling, and summer-sulting (is that how you spell it?) down the slide and he crawled to the finish and "won"... but needless to say our antics didn't make the workers happy and they ESCORTED us out after some more arguing. we were PISSED. i wanted to fight chris murphy in inflatable boxing so bad, and these stupid power-tripping loser asshole inflatable toy company employees had to be stupid about everything, and they didn't let us have a rematch. i was just like "CHILL OUT! HAVE SOME FUN! WE JUST WANT TO HAVE A GOOD TIME! WHO GIVES A SHIT IF WE'RE TRASHED! JUST LET US FIGHT!" so after getting kicked out, we went to joel's room and watched 3 Ninjas. then we went back to Omega where the party was happening, played some beer pong, etc. sin was there, and so were megan and nicole, and also brian tree, bakes, jon and mike. after omega me, joel and bakes went to Mia's. then we went to Arethusa afterhours, and we played "Drink if..." which is a game that i made up today (haha), fuck the dealer, and my personal favorite, Kings. now it's 5:45am, the sun is comin gup, and i'm finally back for some MUCH NEEDED sleep! the weekend isn't over yet though... tomorrow (sunday), Sig Tau is having their Squid Stock party... beer, bands, and burgers/hotdogs all day and night. unfortunatley, i have a dress rehearsal at 6:30 for percussion ensemble, cuz our show is monday... i don't think Tiller (the conductor/professor/whatever you want to call him) is gonna be happy AT ALL when i show up for rehearsal trashed! oh well!
So anyways, this weekend (which basically started on wednesday) is non-stop, on-the-go, partying, drinking all day and night, absolute craziness, and i am having an amazing time. i've seen so many friends, had such a good time, laughed my ass off, partied my ass off, spent time with so many great people, and i just want to stay here with everybody all summer. only i also can't wait to see friends from back home, but i'm going to miss everybody here so much. i am so happy here. everywhere i go, there's so many people i know. i love when i walk into a party and people yell "EMOOOOOOO!!!" or "MIKEY!!!" or "PETRACAAAAAA!!!" i guess that kind of sounds cocky, but hey, this is my journal, and i'm just writing down the fact that it makes me feel great inside to know that i have so many awesome friends who are making my life incredible. fucking awesome man.
