(no subject)
so, yeah... um, it's saturday night and i'm bored. i would like to go out, see a movie and hang out in boston, but i'm just not in the mood to hassle with taking the bus, the weather (snowing and cold), the t, working with movie times, and trying to find somewhere to eat. i know that sounds really stupid, but honestly, it's just such an ordeal to try and get off campus that it just doesn't seem worth it. plus, i just spent two nights at my aunt's house, so at least i was out for awhile. well, i use the word 'out' in the sense that i got out of my room, because yesterday i didn't leave her house. i cooked, watched tv, did a little homework, did some laundry.
i also bought my plane ticket home for spring break. i was really hoping to go somewhere cool and meet new people and do something different, but that just didn't work out, so i am coming home from march 17-26. at least i get some sun, thank god. it's snowing today and it's making me tired.
i'm trying not to let wellesley get me down. i'm trying to think of things to keep me sane, but since i finished my screenplay, i'm not sure how i'm going to keep myself busy from now on. maybe some art, but i have to get into boston to buy that stuff first. i'm trying to be enthusiastic about the things i'm involved in, but frankly, i couldn't care less how many 'class of 2008' sweatshirts we sell and weather they are dark grey or light grey. i don't CARE. i also have lots of free time and not much work. on wednesday night, i came back from class, sat down at my computer, and realized i didn't have anything i had to do. so i watched a movie, which is nice, but watching movies on a computer through head phones while sitting on a wood chair for a couple hours can get old.
today i talked to dana! we hadn't heard each others' voices in probably two years. i don't know how i've been living without her.
classes are fine, uneventful. i got my first very own credit card in the mail the other day. i have one that's linked to my parents' account, but this is my very own. i now possess the ability to plunge myself into debt. yes! now i can turn 20 feeling self-sufficient. it's kind of like when you're at the edge of a tall building, and you know that you could end your life if you just jumped off, but you don't. it's just the knowing that you possess that kind of power. was that a morbid metaphor? having a credit card is like realizing your ability to commit suicide. ooh, that's a good one.
speaking of turning 20 (wasn't that a great transition?), happy birthday (in 5 hours) to rachel! the 'r' in 'relish,' she puts the 'bling' in 'humbling.' that's right, she's no longer a teenager, so i guess all that sarcasm wasn't just a phase. good thing!
alright, then, i guess i'm off to continue my amazing saturday night here at my desk listening to chinese pop music. there is a society (read: sorority) party on campus tonight. maybe i'll go hang out in a small room filled with drunk sweaty people and music so loud that all tomorrow it will feel as though my ears have been stuffed with socks. mm, yeah, sounds good. get it, sounds good? hahaha, ah, i'm such a loser.
** edit/ update: my room is driving me crazy. ergo, 40 minutes ago i called jessica and in 5 minutes i am leaving to go see syriana with her. look at me being spontaneous. i won't let wellesley get me down!
