Friday, May 16, 2008
stripeznstarz50: so that was my last friday of high school
onceandthefuture: so soon?
stripeznstarz50: yep
stripeznstarz50: my school's on a weird schedule so all of the show biz kids can get a bigger summer off
onceandthefuture: I see
stripeznstarz50: so I've got a few empty days next week for the exams I don't have to take since all of my classes were AP
stripeznstarz50: then grad on thursday
onceandthefuture: you feeling okay about it?
stripeznstarz50: just kinda surprised
stripeznstarz50: it sorta sprung up on me y'know?
onceandthefuture: ah yes
stripeznstarz50: sprung up on all of us
onceandthefuture: the last days do that
stripeznstarz50: especially since most of the schools around here don't get out for another few weeks
onceandthefuture: mmhmm
stripeznstarz50: I don't feel ready for the real world xD
onceandthefuture: you never will
stripeznstarz50: :-P
stripeznstarz50: well I do pretend to be other people for a living
stripeznstarz50: although I've been thinking
stripeznstarz50: maybe split log's cancellation was a sign
stripeznstarz50: maybe I need to get out of show business while I still can
onceandthefuture: but isn't the excuse for this gap year to pursue your acting career overseas?
stripeznstarz50: well yeah
stripeznstarz50: but
stripeznstarz50: idk
stripeznstarz50: I'm ready for a break
stripeznstarz50: wanna go find a cabin in the woods and be hermits?
onceandthefuture: oh that sounds lovely
onceandthefuture: where?
stripeznstarz50: deep woods far far away
stripeznstarz50: maybe matt knows a place
onceandthefuture: mmmmm
onceandthefuture: as long as we have a massive fireplace
stripeznstarz50: of course
onceandthefuture: make vodka in the bathtub
stripeznstarz50: shoot deer for dinner
onceandthefuture: precisely
stripeznstarz50: go into town about once a month for supplies and read all day
onceandthefuture: have five dogs and some chickens
stripeznstarz50: as long as it's not cows
stripeznstarz50: I hate cows
onceandthefuture: okay no cows
onceandthefuture: I have no problem with that
stripeznstarz50: yay!
stripeznstarz50: we would live so well together
onceandthefuture: mmm
onceandthefuture: as long as I never let you bring sugar in the house
stripeznstarz50: yeah well I'd neer let you bring rum in the house either
onceandthefuture: prick
stripeznstarz50: :-P
onceandthefuture: well that's what the vodka in the bathtub is for
stripeznstarz50: touche
stripeznstarz50: no internet
stripeznstarz50: just a satellite TV
onceandthefuture: and books
onceandthefuture: lots and lots of book
onceandthefuture: s
stripeznstarz50: totally
stripeznstarz50: I'd teach you how to beat mario bros
onceandthefuture: I would ban video games from the house
stripeznstarz50: awwww
onceandthefuture: there are more sophisticated means of distraction available
stripeznstarz50: one day I'm going to figure out your average character per word ratio in a convo
stripeznstarz50: and it will be massive
onceandthefuture: you are impossible
stripeznstarz50: but you love me
onceandthefuture: lord only knows why
stripeznstarz50: :-)
onceandthefuture: oh
onceandthefuture: I found out something scarring today
stripeznstarz50: really now
onceandthefuture: so scarring
onceandthefuture: so I was studying with kiku in my coffeeshop between classes
onceandthefuture: normal everyday stuff
stripeznstarz50: mmhm
onceandthefuture: when out of nowhere my crazy classics prof walks up
stripeznstarz50: freaky
onceandthefuture: that's not the best part
onceandthefuture: he walks right up to kiku and says
onceandthefuture: and I wuote
onceandthefuture: quote*
onceandthefuture: 'we're dating now, aren't we?'
stripeznstarz50: lolwhat
onceandthefuture: and kiku just smiles and nods
onceandthefuture: meanwhile I am staring and shellshocked
stripeznstarz50: well obviously
onceandthefuture: and then he walks off like nothing happened
onceandthefuture: and so I ask kiku what the fuck was that about
onceandthefuture: apparently they've been dating for months
stripeznstarz50: how did you never know this
onceandthefuture: he just never had a reason to tell me
onceandthefuture: or ANYONE
onceandthefuture: you have never met kiku
onceandthefuture: he is the most closed-up human being in the world
onceandthefuture: he'll talk about books and anime and homework all day long
onceandthefuture: but when it gets to personal interests he clams up
onceandthefuture: I thought I'd worked around that
onceandthefuture: but apparently not
stripeznstarz50: dude
stripeznstarz50: he didn't even tell you he had a boyfriend?
onceandthefuture: never even gave me a hint
stripeznstarz50: maybe he's a spy or something
stripeznstarz50: or a ninja
onceandthefuture: well he is Japanese
onceandthefuture: I know that much about him
stripeznstarz50: xD
stripeznstarz50: excellent
stripeznstarz50: a shadow in the night!
stripeznstarz50: now I have to meet him
onceandthefuture: I'll put on the webcam next time we study together
onceandthefuture: we'll get nothing done I'm sure
stripeznstarz50: so totally worth it
onceandthefuture: hehehe
onceandthefuture: just
onceandthefuture: that one little encounter
onceandthefuture: turned what I thought about my life on its head
stripeznstarz50: I can see that xD
stripeznstarz50: what's the age difference anyway?
onceandthefuture: not too bad I think
onceandthefuture: kiku's a third year
onceandthefuture: I dunno how old weird prof is, but I know he's still a grad student
stripeznstarz50: oh okay
stripeznstarz50: so it's not like
stripeznstarz50: pervy old creepy guy or anything
onceandthefuture: no no
onceandthefuture: he's quite young
onceandthefuture: and kiku's what my aunt calls an old soul
stripeznstarz50: aaah
stripeznstarz50: so it kind of makes sense?
onceandthefuture: except for the fact that my prof is an absolute nutter
onceandthefuture: and kiku is the sanest most rational person I know
stripeznstarz50: xD
stripeznstarz50: well everyone needs a balance I guess
onceandthefuture: hmmph
onceandthefuture: still fucking barmy
stripeznstarz50: xD
onceandthefuture: also the fact that apparently it took crazy prof this long to realize they were dating
onceandthefuture: how do you do that
stripeznstarz50: by being blissfully oblivious to the real world
onceandthefuture: if whoever I was dating didn't know we were dating while I knew we were dating
onceandthefuture: I would kick them so hard
stripeznstarz50: sounds to me like kiku thinks its cute or endearing or something like that
onceandthefuture: shit
onceandthefuture: he would
stripeznstarz50: :-P
onceandthefuture: it's sad when you can read my friends better than me
onceandthefuture: and you've never met them
stripeznstarz50: hehehehehe
stripeznstarz50: I guess it's just a gift
stripeznstarz50: brb walking peaches
onceandthefuture: don't let her loose, she might terrorize the city
stripeznstarz50: ha ha very funny
stripeznstarz50: and back
onceandthefuture: so I can see
onceandthefuture: by the by
onceandthefuture: if you bring that thing with you here
onceandthefuture: I will make you fly it back home yourself
stripeznstarz50: meanie!
onceandthefuture: and will only pack you marmite to eat on the way home
stripeznstarz50: what's that
onceandthefuture: I like it
onceandthefuture: but you would hate it
stripeznstarz50: that did not answer my question
onceandthefuture: beer leftovers
stripeznstarz50: eeeeeeeeeew
stripeznstarz50: you would like that
onceandthefuture: it doesn't really taste like beer
stripeznstarz50: still eeew
stripeznstarz50: did you have to phrase it like that
onceandthefuture: yes
onceandthefuture: because yeast extracts sounds worse
stripeznstarz50: oh god you're right
stripeznstarz50: still
stripeznstarz50: sounds better than your cooking
onceandthefuture: shut the fuck up you've never had my cooking you wouldn't know
stripeznstarz50: I don't have to know
stripeznstarz50: I have a sixth sense
onceandthefuture: who has been talking to you this time
stripeznstarz50: mathy is very good at sneaking on your sn while you're away
onceandthefuture: fuck him with something hard and sandpapery
stripeznstarz50: hehehehehehehe
onceandthefuture: excuse me I need to find my sword so I can kill him
