Isn't it funny how one bad incident can ruin a perfectly good night?
The formal was amazing. The cabins were great, and I had so much fun with my sisters. Danielle, Amie, and I woke up early Saturday and went exploring, and I think I've officially decided that if i don't live in Kentucky, I wanna live in Tennessee. I've never been anywhere in TN that I thought was ugly. In fact, I think everything I've seen in TN has been beautiful!
Okay, so Friday was a bonfire. It was a lot of fun, but there really isn't much to it. We didn't drink because our alchohol policy was that we had to wait until after the formal on Saturday. Anyway, so saturday we go explore, get cleaned up and dolled up (see fb pictures) and go to the dance. Leah did a really great job with everything- I was so proud of her. Robert and I danced a ton, and had a lot of fun.
THEN (this is the bad part) I start drinking, get completely fucked over by a couple of drinking games, and get a little worse than I meant to be. during one of these drinking games, Lindsey walks up to me and goes "Why is roberto smoking?" So instantly, I'm like "WHAT!?!?!?" and stand up to go chew his ass out. Its not so much that he smoked, you guys, it's just that he's an x-smoker, first of all, and second of all I didn't know where he was and he just left me there without saying "hey i'll be back in a minute" or anything, and it pissed me off because he had been hanging out with dudes all day and I honestly felt like i havne't seen him all day except the formal, and apparently his damn cigarrettes were more important than me.
So he comes back in (lindsey and danielle made me sit down and not make a scene, so I just kept playing the game), and I go "You smell bad. Like cigarette smoke. Did you smoke?" and he goes "I had two." So i just shrugged his hand off and walked to the other cabin, OBVIOUSLY very angry. And HE DIDN"T FOLLOW ME for a good thirty minutes, and it epically pissed me off. So then he finally shows up an we go outside to talk and by this point i was even madder because he didn't follow me and it was just bullshit, so i ripped him a new one. I know this might seem stupid to you guys, but here is what I was/am mad about, besides the simple fact that he smoked.
- He left me all by myself without saying brb or anything.
- He didn't follow me when I left, obviously angry.
- He told me that he knew BEFORE he started smoking that I would be angry about it.
- He knew how important this weekend was to me and us as a couple, because I wanted my sorority to finally see us together, as a couple.
K, so we talk it out, and the way I am is that I don't instantly get over things. I have to really blow up, and then simmer down by myself. SO i'm like "It's okay, whatever, but I don't have anything else to say to you right now so I'm going to go back to my friend's cabin" and I go.
At about this point I start doing straight shots of so co with beer as a chaser (i downed a good 3 bottles of coors in 8 minutes, i shit you not) back to back, and mind you, I was already fucked. Then, I go back to his cabin and somebody else locked it without realizing I wasn't there, so I go sleep by myself on an air matress.
I feel like I got hit by a train, and I'm worried that the fight will make all my formal memories sour. God, why can't things ever be simple?
I'm still not completley happy about this, but I'm getting over it. Hopefully, I'll be fine about this later, but I don't think Rob realizes how I hold on to things, and right now I'm kind of glad he's gone because he was getting on my nreves and he is on very thin ice.
