I killed my cell phone. It must have fallen out of my pocket a few nights ago (I was sober.), and spent the night out in the rain. Someone put it in my mailbox the next day. Now the front screen is broken, and it won't stay on when it's plugged in, and it won't even turn on when it's not. *is sad* Damn my dependency on technology.
In other news:
I'm now a Sponge! This weekend was amazing. I've been thinking about joining the Sponges since the beginning of freshman year, and I'm really glad that I finally did. I was worried about certain reactions I might get, but fuck it! I'm a senior, and you only live once (in my estimation), so I decided to go for it. I am really happy. This year, and especially this semester, has been amazing, and I plan on graduating free of regrets when the time comes. So there. Only problem: Sponge love and boyfriends don't mix. But they're both so much fun! Damn the luck. Hopefully, everything will be fine.
Also, I can't help but throw in my two cents worth here: Part of being a good friend is taking care of each other. The Sponges are not to blame for certain recent events. Case in point: I bought a box of wine. I brought it home. I invited a friend over to share it with me. I failed said friend by not paying enough attention to him. I know that it isn't completely my fault, but a better friend would have been watching out a little more. Some people blame the Sponges. Now, I understand exactly how they came to this conclusion, I really do. But it's just plain fucking wrong. Neither of us were Sponges at the time. We both drank long before Repro. We both, on occasion, drank too much way before Repro. It's called an individual decision. It's got very little to do with being a part of a group. I don't mean any of this in a negative way towards anyone. I'm fairly certain that most people I'm referring to have the best of intentions. I just think that they don't see the entire situation because it's so much easier to cast blame when hurt and worried. So there it is.
I'm not going to throw a jab at other drama because I know that I don't know most of the situation, and I know it wouldn't help. I just wanted to clarify my view on something I was actually a part of because we have a few too many opinions from people who weren't there.
PS-the light on my cell phone just switched from red to green... but it still won't let me call my mommy :( clearly--the light is meaningless and only exists to mock me.
