* All-American weekend spent on da beach dunes of Lake Michigan...mah favorite lake (da presence of an ocean, but still da freshwater taste). Hiked past da scorching dunes, half a mile down da beach, and camped illegally right on da beach. Absolute seclusion from any tourists or human life, Alex and ah enjoyed a quiet, relaxin' weekend lying out and gettin' some color. We built a beach campfire wit da abundance of drift wood, played some football on da beach, attempted to bodysurf only to end up doing lots of wave jumps, hiked and explored da seaside dune bluffs, watched da sun descend behind da horizon of water, and slept underneath da starry night sky with da lulling sound of waves crashing ashore. Ah will post pictures soon...
(Not sexy---ah got a speeding ticket driving dere)
* Went out to Club Menjo's wit Derek and Abe in da shady part of Detroit, although its still no Southwest. Booming techno beats pulsated while ah was still in da parking lot. All da gays were super primped and super pretty in their tight, ripped-in-all-da-right-places jeans, popped collars, highlights and condescending stares. Ah was super relaxed partly because ah suffer from high self-esteem, but then so did everyone else there. Ah navigated through da crowds, reflecting all da stares coming mah way, and settled at da bar. Two long islands and four walks circling da club later, ah'm way more drunk than ah have ever been busting a move on da dance floor...where dere was apparently no such thing as being too slutty or too under dressed. Well when in rome...no ah'm just kidding, ah'm proud to say ah kept mah shirt on. Ah remembered little else of da night except Derek kept on trying to take mah shirt off. Ah threw up for da first time in Abe's bathroom, and passed out on Derek's couch.
* Ah had a hangover da next day which was not good considering dat ah was getting paid to take a bunch of international students canoe'ing on Huron River. Four hours under da afternoon sun later...damn those are some slow ass canoe'rs.
* Ah've received five secondaries already. Sigh. So much to do before ah leave.
