back at Tufts...weird
Monday-
So yeah, I didn't sleep really at all. And then I spent the entire day watching Law and Order. So I felt even shittier from being so inactive. I called my aunt and uncle to thank them for their very generous graduation gift. And I called my grandma to thank her also. The gym was closed but I definitely did attempt to go. So I get points for that, right? But I didn't go out simply bc I couldn't really move. Tomorrow has to be better than today, right?
Tuesday-
Rob called me in the morning just to chat and then he called me back a little while later to say he GOT INTO THE MD/PhD PROGRAM AT TUFTS MED SCHOOL!!!!! I started crying when he told me. Haha. It is HUGE. Not only do they pay for med school but he gets a stipend and it is really a big deal. I am so amazingly proud of him. It is the best news possible. So I cried. I felt really sick all day I think bc of my messed up sleeping schedule. My ear was pounding and I was really dizzy from it. But my mom dragged me to Ikea anyway. And I seriously mean DRAGGED. I shuffled through the store unable to really think clearly. My mom made me latkas for dinner. And a veggie burger. Exactly what I requested and soup also! My mom is so good. I talked to Kim for a bit, Adam left today. But I really went to bed at 11pm. What a sad life.
Wednesday-
I am feeling better today. I went to Border's with my mom and spent $40 on random books I wanted. 1776. And Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants. And also a fold out map of Boston. If I am going to be living there I better get to know the city! Then we went to Macy's. When we got home we ate dinner and then I went for coffee with Dan. Angela got home from Italy today and Sarah got home from London! YAYAY!!!! So after coffee I drove out to Stony Brook and met up with Kim and Ang at the university. Rob called so I talked to him in the parking lot while I waited for them. Then we drove down Port and went to a bar where the beers were $1. I only had one thought. The cops are out in full force and a DUI is the last thing I need. I am so paranoid. So after that I drove Kim home and went to bed by 1. A pretty early evening.
Thursday-
Talked to Ryan! I miss him lots. Talked to Sarah! I miss her lots ALSO. Gym. Hair cut. They moved next door which was kind of confusing. Haha. Shopping with my mom. She tortures me. I hate buying adult clothing. BAH! Diner for dinner. Of course. Pea soup night, what else? My mom spilled her iced tea on me so THAT was fun. Haha. Then we went to the Hallmark store and I bought a card for Father's Day but I didn't see any Fresh Ink cards I had to buy. Hehe. I didn't go out again tonight. I started packing and just didn't feel like leaving my house at 11:30 like the boys do. Boo. So I went to bed by 1.
Friday-
Last day on Long Island for lord knows how long. I wanted to come home for the 4th of July but now I realize that it won't work. Argh. So I went to the gym. Kim came over. I did laundry and finished packing. We had Shabbat dinner and a mini-party for Kim with Carvel cake and presents. I got her a pink beach hat, a fun bag for the beach, a cool canopy thing to go over her bed that is so her, and I gave her these closet drawer things from Ikea that I told her about. Hehe. Then we went to Macy's and I bought not one but TWO new wallets. I have been in need of small going out type wallets. So I found two that I loved. Yay. And I bought a present for Sarah. Then we called Ang but she was on her way to Boston to see her cousin's dance show. Oh well. And so we just went to Chris' to hang out and do nothing. We watched Law and Order and chilled until my mom came to get me after Coffee Clotch. Overall a very chill day/night. Good bye New York!
Saturday-
I took the 9am ferry to Bridgeport. Then an 11:12 train to Boston. Rob, Ryan, and Kaelyn met me at Back Bay. Greatest story ever. Some guy came up to Rob while they were waiting for me and was like "I could afford you" and Rob was like uhm...excuse me? So the guy repeated it. And Rob was like no, I don't understand what you mean. So the guy said he would pay Rob to let him give him a Japanese massage or something. So then Ryan was like, just out of curiosity, how much would you pay? So the guy said he had $50 on him but if Rob came back tomorrow he would bring more. Who does that! Then Rob came inside to get me and the guy came over to us! I was very confused until the beginning of the story was explained to me. Man! So I had told Rob to bring his car bc my stuff was weigh heavy and not easy to carry. He didn't believe me and about halfway to his house he gave up and went to get the car. So I stood on Dartmouth St waiting for him to come with his car. I fed Dagwood water from my Nalgene and he filled it with dirt and grossness. Then we went to T's to get my stuff from her that she had taken back from LI for me. And Rob drank from my Nalgene! Oh my! Hahah. So we got my stuff, went back to Copley to give Kaelyn her stuff cuz she is here for the weekend for her cousin's grad party or something. Then we said bye to Ryan and Kaelyn and went to Tufts to move me in. We went to the UHaul and emptied the storage room and filled up a UHaul van. Then we brought it all to Teele and moved it into my room. I didn't want to unpack any of it but we both really needed to shower. So Rob went home and we both showered and whatever. Then Justin and I drove downtown to Rob and Ryan's to have dinner and hang out. We got pizza from a place near them that they like but I forget the name of. And we drank a lot of wine. Then we somehow were taken to an irish pub by a girl named Sarah whose mom lives in Wilkes. It was quite random. And some Irish guy sat with us and was like "Y'all flamers?" which was hysterical. Then we left there after I had a white russian and was sufficiently wrecked. We made our way to Club Cafe which was funny. I just talked to everybody who would talk to me. We left there around 12:30 I think. Not too late. And Justin drove us home so I am assuming he was pretty sober. Ha. Yay for a fun first night back at Tufts. I drunken dialed some people and it was overall a good time.
Sunday-
It is somehow quite depressing to be back here. Last summer was amazing and I just know that this summer will be entirely different and probably no where near as good. I spent 10 hours unpacking (from about 8am-6pm) and then went to the gym. It was weird to walk through campus and realize that nothing is how it was for the last 4 yrs. I was seriously depressed and freaking out. Especially bc I lacked any sort of human interaction for the entire day. I talked to my mom for about 5 seconds and that was all. I left Rob and Justin voicemails telling them to please please call me so I could have a conversation with someone. Justin finally did. Bless his soul. So after I went to the gym I showered and then went for food with Justin. I was going to go to Telly's to watch HBO with him and Tim but I was running too late for that. So instead Tim came over afterwards and we sat and talked for a while. He left around 12 and I went to sleep. It was a pretty long day.
Monday-
I tried to convince myself to not be so unhappy and things seem slightly better. Daphne had work all day so I was very alone in the house but the time went by quickly. She is my only other housemate who is around so far. In case you were confused. I went to the gym at 12. Then I wasted time reading and rearranging things all day waiting for Justin to get home. I went to the post office. And talked to Natalie on the phone. Justin ended up working all friggin day so I had no one to entertain me. Finally Lewis and Jonah called me at night and asked if I wanted to meet up with them and michelle, deanna, and andy for ice cream. So we went to JP Lick's and hung out for a while. After that I walked back to where Jonah had left his car and they drove me home. I missed them! They were in Oregon for a few days for Jonah's mom's wedding. Fun times. So I went to bed around 12. At least I saw human beings and didn't freak out at all today. Ha.
Yesterday, Tuesday, I visited Liz at OSA. I hadn't seen her yet so it was good to go there. Then I had lunch with Rob and Jonah. I filled out paperwork for my job but I have to call at some point this week to ask a few questions. I talked to Justin and we went to the gym. Then we went to the supermarket. And after bringing our stuff back quickly we went to see Crash with Talita. She got lost so we mapped her location on Justin's GPS and found her. And then she followed us back. I don't know what we would have done without that fantastic system in his car. I love it! Crash was really good but I want to download it so I can find out what happened in the first 15 minutes that we missed. It didn't seem crucial but maybe a little bit so. We shall see. After the movie T left and me and Justin GPSed our way to Wendy's bc Justin was starving. He then got Tiger for me from his apt and drove me home. Yay. A much better day than yesterday. I read a little bit more of my latest book and went to bed around 2.
It is now Wednesday, June 8th and I am moved into my summer sublet. It is Kim's birthday! And I am dog sitting. Rob has to teach a lab and Dag is sick and so somehow I came into custody of him. He keeps nearly puking. Please don't puke dog. I just want him to nap. I know he wants to do it. Please dog, nap! I had lunch with Lewis and Jonah and then went to the comp sci building with Jonah for a bit. Dagwood refused to walk so I dragged him like a mop down the polished hallways. Haha. It was actually quite cute. I wanted to go to Target today but it doesn't look like that will happen. I called and they said no dogs allowed. Boo. I really need a mattress pad so that my bed isn't so uncomfortable. Grrr. But somehow Rob will work that out for me bc I am watching his dog so he owes me a visit to Target. Hehe. So the dog is sleeping now. And I am playing Josh Groban to remind him of home and keep him sleeping. I think Rob should be done in about an hour and then he can take back his dog. And maybe we can go back to Boston and go to the Target down by him. And then maybe Justin will come downtown later tonight and I can transfer my purchases to his car and he can take me home. Hmm, wouldn't that be ideal? And that is why it won't happen. Haha. Okay, journal you are officially updated. Now I have to go figure out something else to do for an hour.
