I'd have to say this has been one of the most diverse weekend's i've ever had, even though i spent almost all of it with Josh and Alex. Thursday afternoon i went to see a dance performance that had my friend from work in it. From this, i figured out that almost every woman in the world is in a dance class, and almost no guys are. That night josh and i partied across the courtyard with a bunch of girls who... well, they gave me a strong sense of what it's like to live in a small town somehow. Smoked hookah with my kuwaitie friend after that, so i learned a little bit about what it's like to live in kuwait as a woman (she would be considered a whore there if men knew that she smoked hookah).
Friday started off a little rough considering i'd gone to bed at 4 am and had to get up at 7 to study for my final at 10 am (on a side note, despite having only gotten to sleep at 4 am, i woke up twice in my sleep from dreams i'd had, which is weird cuz i almost never wake up in my sleep). But i think i did pretty well on it. Went to my other classes that day for once, but they were no help as usual. Rushed the afternoon cramming a paper out of my ass instead of going to work, but w/e, i'm done with that job now. Went home on a spur of the moment decision because all of my friends were busy. That was a little strange, but it helped solidify how things are going to be when i go back. Basically, it put my mind at ease in a few key respects. Once again, did not get to sleep until past 4 am, and i got up at 9 to do hw due at noon.
Saterday was a trip. Drove back just in time to get to my 4.5 hour shift, last day at work. For some reason, i did not sleep after this. The gang and i just chilled out on the lawn for hours, and then josh and i headed out to see alex and cassy in the rocky horror picture show. This time we volunteered for the virgin treatment, and sat in the front row as per Cassy's advice. This was a good idea, but first, the virgin treatment. Josh and i got split up, (what a surprise), he got to eat a twinkie off of a girls clothed crotch, and i ate gummie bears off of a hairy fellow's chest, who was wearing a dark green bra. We both won our competitions, so i guess hawthorne hall raises some people with good suction ability. The show was a little different this time. Smaller room, lots more virgins, a lot more shouting and lap dances. Basically, Alex, Cassy, and their really really cute friend Clair all came up from behind me during one scene and landed on my lap. No warning whatsoever. And there was this guy yelling at the top of his lungs the entire time, who wasnt even in the cast.
Afterwards we got invited to the cast party, but of me and my boys, i was the only one with the energy to make it. Let me say, that having a car is a very nice luxury. It's just so relaxing, ya know? The cast party was another real experience. Everyone there was more sexually charged than even jennifer, which was a bit of a shock to me. I had to take care of Cassy for the second part of the night, due to her trying to drink as much as she could as fast as she could. We took her up to one of the host's room, who later came in with a friend and started talking about whether or not it would be cool to fool around with Cassy passed out on the bed, and myself on the floor next to it. I decided they could take care of her at that point, and rejoined the party. I dont know if they had sex next to her or not.
Ended up at breakfast with a bunch of dramafreak/perverts in IHOP at 6:30 in the morning of all things. They were actually all pretty nice, which i guess goes to show you that the more strange a person's tastes, the more accepting and kind they usually are. Got home around 8 am, and proceeded to sleep until noon.
Oh, and i've figured out that i cant get drunk anymore. I had 7 drinks thursday night, no effect, 6 on saterday, ditto. Woe is me.
Today involved getting closer to some of my best friends here and going to a study session and passing out in the front row, about 5 feet from my TA in a crowded lecture hall meant for 200 people. Oh, and did i mention, Alex, Josh and I floated down the rapids of the willamette? That was pretty sweet despite loosing a sandal and inbibing a couple gulps of river water. Plus, after swimming out to this island, Alex and i got swept downstream to another 'path', which turned out to be the most physically painful thing that's happened to me this year, including cutting my hand open. I was in nothing but swimtrunks, no shoes, no shirt, no socks, nothing. And we had to climb our way out through about 100 feet of blackberry bushes. There was some blood involved. Finished up the weekend listening to these two english major's babble about linguistics for an hour, and now i'm here, about to pull an all nighter studying for philosophy, and contemplating how i'm still awake after a full week with less than 5 hours of sleep a night.
Sorry about the length, hey, i only post once a month, so i figure its just one page you have to scroll down.
