Thoughts, purging

Jan 29, 2010 00:12

I went to a Lecture by Josh Viertel, president of Slow Food USA. That was great. It was inspiring and revamped my already serious interest in the topic. It was just what I needed. Especially since it gave me a lot of ideas of what I want to focus on this semester. Great.

I got in a lot of great conversations, with people from community partnerships at SLC, with Josh (the speaker), with the person who sat next to me, other people milling around, and finally this senior I had met in passing before, who is much cooler than I thought. We went to go get food at an Irish diner that I absolutely must go back to sometime, but its a little far to drive. Maybe bike? We were both hungry and Bates was closed by the time we finally wanted to wander out of there (which, if you know me, you would know was pretty much after everyone else had left. The best conversations are with the stragglers, cause those are usually the most passionate, dedicated, or involved).

OMG the Irish diner was delisious. I got corned beef hash, and potatoes with gravy. Perhaps not the most environmentally friendly, but it is community friendly, being a very local diner.

When Jake dropped me back off, we exchanged numbers and I went into Hill house, where my classmate opened the door for me and told me I looked absolutely beautiful today, which made me feel great. I gave him a hug. He said I always look beautiful, but especially today. I was just wearing a tanktop and my winter skirt I've worn every day this week. It might be because I looked happy.

Then I got to spend a little time with my housemate Michelle, while organizing my to do list.

I'm in an ok mood, but worn a little thin. I need to relax. I want a long bath but I need to clean my bathroom, and homework trumps that.

Saturday? Can I relax Saturday? Please?
