let me tell you about my friday:
i got approved by the cdo for my praxis internship! score. searched for more summer housing online. still hopeful.
had my last screen comedy class, and it ended on a such a nice note, with jefferson hunter telling us a metaphor that the meaning of screen comedy was the uncatchable road runner, while we create all of these theories and studying mechanisms to understand it, but we like the coyote always fail. and then of course we watched "beep beep" a 1951 chuck jones warner brothers clip.
after lunch elaine and i went to birdocks which will be closing at the end of the month to get some yummy hot chocolate and iced chai, and a miniscule chocolate mouse that really wasn't worth 2.50. then we walked around smith and layed out in the sun for over an hour just talking and reflecting on our college careers so far. it was really good talking to her, because it restored faith in myself that i actually can carry on a conversation with someone for an extended period of time.
then i went with sara and nikki beck to enjoy the sikos spring improv show on the science quad and they were actually funny. and i got to reminisce about my stab at improv comedy. then we headed back up to chapin lawn to enjoy midday madness. ate pizza, cotton candy, snow slushies, and jousted the lovely miss allison tinney, which despite some hard hits to made head (so hard that i thought my mouth was bleeding) i pulled out victorious. on the way back to lamont i convinced danni to go to catie curtis with me. dinner was awesome and danni and soon headed out.
the concert reminded me (in case anyone can forget) how seriously gay northampton is. it was so cute and we sat at a table with these cute older lesbians (i'm assuming) and had a pretty awesome time. she played on three songs i knew (including the emotional magnolia street, to which i almost cried because it reminds me of a certain someone) but the rest of the songs were enjoyable and i've been inspired to get the rest of her cds. when leaving the concert i ran into my sort of ta from my tennis class last semester, kerri, whom i love, and chatted with her about the good old days of me missing the last day of class for no reason last semester and some other things too. it was really cool to see her. i want to be friends with her.
after the concert it was time for drinking and "truth or dare" jenga in the triple. i lost my hicky virginity (giving not getting) and proceed to practice that the rest of the night. sorry to nora, ais, and ais's friend on the rugby team, and alana who started it off. yes, i took some body shots, danced crazily, fell down a couple of times, lost my shoes, tried to hit on this girl miriam, consoled this girl i didn't really know that wanted to hook up w/ the infamously unattainable cole taylor, party fouled numerous times, found my shoes, got upset when miriam left, danced w/ my fabulous suiteheartmate lise (that's code for suitemate), and came home to eat some annie's mac and cheese and to be left on the floor of the triple. well not entirely on the floor, my feet were up on a chair. people thought i had passed out. first time i was drunk enough to even simulate being passed out. pretty sweet overall!
woke up this morning sans hangover and a craving for orange chicken. (i'm such a bad vegetarian!)
today i woke up at quarter to 7 (a.m.) facebooked, ate food, reminisced about last night, talked to anthony, got a carepackage, facebooked, got intimidated at northampton pride, didn't see girlyman at pride (which was my reason for going in the first place) watched kung fu hustle (which to my surprise i thoroughly enjoyed),for a class, facebooked a hell of a lot more, and got burned by coffee ON MY BACK due to the shinanigans of others. so overall today not as good as yesterday, but still pretty damn good! everyday can't be perfect i suppose.
i'm actually going to attempt to write some japanese essays now. we'll see how well that goes.
