i promised id update! so here i am.
lordy do i have a lot of reading to do already... its a little (alot) rediculous, but whatev. one more note before i begin: pics take awhile, so as soon as i have time again, ill put them in. onward...
apparently i left off about a week ago... but wow does it seem like so much more than that. i met eims and lola in the city friday the 7th, and myself and eims went on a rousing tour of the west village, including the necessary stops at tea & sympathy, magnolia for cupcakes, and biography!! where i purchased some welcome distractions for the next semester. we made a stop at 86th to see lola at marymount, and stopped by to see the puppies in the window and such :)
thinking back i fit an awful lot into the last couple days before i went back... saturday i went to julie's for dinner and played with joseph, who is officially potty trained!! (woohoo! not that you need to know.. lol) he calls me all the time just to let me know how hes such a big boyyy lol. oh cutest thing, he called yesterday to tell me about the zoo! and monkeys!! oh complete sentences...
afterwards (well, after a shoe emergency stop at the garden state plaza...) was bunkys kick ass hoedown.. the windows even said yeeeehaw, i loved it. i decided to be the token native american, making full use of the stick horse from my moms classroom and, of course, the warrior playset. the soundtrack was amazing... lol shania twain anddd dueling banjos! and who could forget the country roads remix? and what would a hoedown be without some texas hold em? sweeet.
hmmm sunday i got my nails done with christina, then went over to marys for the lawn cult farewell :( i hate thinking im not going to see anyone again till like may!!! we colored with mrs feighery, which was pretty sweet tho. after i went to amandas and we went to a different mcdonalds (the one on nepperhan) to avoid the weird drive thru guy on yonkers ave... then we watched "bye bye birdie... backstage!" and we wouldve cried if we werent so tired lol... but seriously i miss loyola so muccchhh those were the days! everything was so different.. i cant believe it.
monday myself and amanda decided to meet torie in the city and go to loyola (can we say super emotional??!) oh man, i couldnt take it, just thinking id be going back to "real" school the next day.. ew. torie graduated, too funny, and we went to city market (mmmm) and then back to tories to have another viewing of bye bye birdie. i stood on 86th street and cried when we were leaving, i just couldnt help it... its like far too much emotion to leave behind.
so of course my mom decides this is a good time to finally take me out to mannions for dinner. with grandma and grandpa.. and their awkward questions.. i had to get up and leave the table for awhile because i felt like actually throwing up. after making the neighborhood rounds (anthony, rachel, jenn, christina, and erin.. who cried when she saw the suitcases) i stayed up the entire night packing. terrible. somehow i convinced the airport to not only let me on an earlier flight, but with two more carry ons than is lawful... and i still have a full suitcase waiting to be mailed.
the first night back, tuesday, we decided to go to the georgetown basketball game.. super fun! favorite part: screaming "safety school" at the other team when we won... lol amazing. i really like all my classes so far... theyre reallllly interesting and the profs are super nice. spanish is up in the air though... im not sure which prof im gonna get next. ugh but so much reading! im gonna have to put off dc reads for at least another week.
well the rest of the week was normal... class and such.. west wing on wednesday and the oc on thurs. i feel like one of those nights was when me and lola stole twister's dvd? amazinnggg covert op, i must say. we're getting really good at it. same for stealing the m&ms from leos.. mmm! friday night we watched garden state and went to s street to see everyone in apo.. really fun. saturday though... awful. well it started out okay.. watching dodgeball at dannys with the apo crew and seamus' hottttt swiss friend.. oh man.. couldnt stop staring.. anyway after i was supposed to meet kelly at a bar on wisconsin.. and the asshole took my id because my eyes were the wrong color. i was like, color contacts? and hes like prove it.. so i make the motion of taking out my contacts before im like ew thats unsanitary.. and hes like, thats too bad then and laughs at me... i was beyond pissed... i really dont know what to do! first, my cousin might get in trouble.. and second, now i cant go out at all when i get home. i am soooo irritated.. im still not really done with it yet :/
today though was cool.. me blair heather sally and janet went to the museums.. first to the native american one, and then we split up because me and blair wanted to play in the air and space one but the rest of them wanted to go to the amaerican history.. oh man tho did we have fun.. we took some pics but didnt get a space cookie! oh well. then tonight we attempted to go to see a movie.. in good company.. but it was sold out in gtown and a cab to virginia is wayy to expensive. so we watched the princess diaries in eims and lolas room and got wedding magazines and it was so fun and girly! but then danny called for us to come to s street, and he came down to get us, and somehow sliced his finger open with a pocket knife, so hes currently in the emergency room with blair.. i might go over and check on him soon.. he didnt even feel it he was so drunk! his finger looked sooo grosss tho.
thats all for now.. goodnight everyone! good luck getting back to school!
