Summer is hot. I never really realized how meaningful that statement was until I came here where there is no air conditioning. The soft pits of my body are always drenched in sweat. I get migraines when it's humid. Why must warm air rise? Thank goodness for this fan. Robin says I complain too much (which I totally do) but she is a heifer, lol. I'm really glad she's here though, even if we bring out the worst in each other. She is always yelling "Boo" at people Riley-Escobar-style, which is hilarious but exceedingly immature. My future roommate is only here occasionally, and she's never here on weekends. Amlan leaves on weekends too, but I suspect we are barely friends at this point. My current roommate is usually not around and she keeps asking me to move out. I think she's joking but I'm uncertain whether she likes me or not. I guess I should try harder not to be too weird around her. She thinks I listen to bad music :[
This past weekend was alumni weekend, so there were all these ex-swatties running around campus. I hesitate to speak ill of my elders on here, but... I don't think I would come back to my college reunion, especially a 2-year one. The way some of them were behaving was pretty embarrassing. Making out with random alumni when you are in a committed relationship, grinding all up ons, playing beer pong constantly, hitting on current students when you are married with two kids? I think I shall pass. And why bring a newborn baby ("who can fit in a 'margarEEN' tub" according to Chenge) here when you know there is no air conditioning. That's just bad parenting. But it was cool to see different people around campus and look into the future. Plus a lot of cool people came up to work the weekend including Nabta who spent the night and my lezzy crush who recently graduated. She has a girlfriend though. Boo! Adrian Jewett look a like is here too, and we are working in the same department so I see him every day. Plus the guy who works at the library is so cute. Basically this means I can survive this summer. No, just kidding. My happiness is not defined by cute boyz and girlz, thanks very much. Anyway I'm saving myself for Paul Pierce.
Just kidding. He's only cute when he's in uniform. I've been watching the NBA finals. They're like superfun except Robin and I annoy everyone who's trying to watch the games. My professor came to watch it with us and it was super awkward. Especially since he didn't have anything nice to say in his review of my final paper for his class. Everyone who watches with us is rooting for the Celtics. Sure Kobe's ~the best player on the planet~ but Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce are badass and Rajon Rondo and Leon Powe were performing magic out there. Like Rondo was literally apparating around the court. Plus Kobe looks like a pigeon. Not a good look.
I guess the plan for this summer is to do my work diligently and on time, read all those books I rented from the library, go museum hopping with Nabta and Robin, get off the internet, and try not to annoy and creep out too many people along the way. Oh, and to be a better friend. Sounds good to me.
Golly, this post is all over the place like the Celtics' defense tonight. I'll leave you with a Rain's new song:

PS: I'm kind of excited for Ninja Assassin. Naomie Harris is going to be in it! And I anxiously await the Princess and the Frog. I will not be surprised if they fuck it up, but we'll see. Also, Strawberry Kiwi Lemonade is maybe the best drink ever.
