The longest weekend ever...
Ok, sooooo...
Friday night, I went with Rachel to reform services, not my cup of tea, but its good that I went because I meant to go all semester and never made an excuse, and matt played and sang beautifully and it was definately an experience.
Went to chabad and had to make a speach. I shouldn't be allowed to make speaches.
Skipped a frat party, saw a movie on the great lawn, cuddled, then passed out in my bed
Saturday morning, Jed (my cousin ----> Grad student at BU) came in and we had lunch, went to springfest, saw Pharcyde, the edition, the Jazz Mandolin Project, (all amazing, but i had to leave to go to bemco practice right before The Presidents of the United States came on and played an apparently really fun set. Tear. But somebody sent me a great video of my friends Lior and Ethan on stage: http://people.brandeis.edu/~leahb/stagedive.AVI
Final practice was good, did assessments with my instructor who is the scariest mofo to test under in the country. Then I skipped a million parties and such and slept early for my test.
Steve woke me up at 5 am. Slept again.
Woke up at 7, showered, shaved, got ready for my test.
Exam was interesting. If you fail one station, you get a chance to retake it that day, if you fail two, you fail the whole test and don't find out for a few days, if you pass them all you still don't know for days. So I wasn't called back, so I either passed and can sigh like a mofo, or failed and I will never be an emt because i can't take the other tests on saturdays, (deis is the only sunday test in the state) and this whole semester's 140 hours was wasted. 19 hours a week. so much time. I really hope I passed
So i was sooo hyper after getting out. I played 5 hours of frisbee today, checked out sex olympics, had dinner. then we were in naftali, adam, amanda, jojo, martha, maria/walter's suite drinking and making music when the fireworks went off and we ran. We just kept running until we were close enough to the fireworks
People just kept joining our running. it was so amazing. Fireworks going off and all of us just running as fast as we could, laughing and jumping and gasping until we were right under them and we just lay in the grass laughing and joking until they finished. Then more frisbee, more music and a little studying for my arabic final tommorow. Shit. Arabic final tommorow. Gotta go.
Much Love.
