I am currently sitting in my dorm room at 9:11pm on a Saturday night on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. When it comes down to it, it's just pathetic. I have a list of things I want to do, you know, but no one to do them with! It's a Jewish holiday, and since I go to a school that is somewhere around 60% Jewish... it's hard to find someone who isn't going to services.
As for school goes, today was the first day that I really wanted to just go home and hug all of my friends back home. I had an overwhelming feeling of loneliness when I hung up the phone with Becca and knew that I wasn't going to see them for another four months.
I went ahead and tried to get David Letterman tickets for when Ryan Adams is going to be on. It works out nicely because that day would be a Wednesday, and I have class until 1 and then I am free. Letterman tapes around 4pm so if I am indeed able to go, I would have plenty of time to catch the train down to the Ed Sullivan Theater. The best part, though, would be that it would be free! I only requested one ticket hoping that I would have a better chance.. who knows what the parents will think about me attending Letterman by myself, but that's ok. It's for Ryan Adams. heh. He has a concert at the Beacon Theater (yes, THAT Beacon Theater) the following day. It's $35. Now, if this were last year, Tara and I would be hitting that up in a flash, but it's this year... and I have no money... no one to go with... "maybe someday" as a lyric says.
Well, I am sadly in for the rest of the night, although it's probably better this way. It is 9 o'clock and the only thing I could go to now would be another person's dorm room to "hang." How inviting. So, I think I'll stick to myself and chit-chat with Danielle until she's gotta start Anatomy. You know. Peace.
