the best is yet to come.
i haven't heard back from the summer conference bureau yet. i was supposed to know by yesterday at the latest if i'd have a job with them over the summer, but i didn't get an e-mail either way. i called the office yesterday at 4:30 and found out that they still have "positions open," which i don't understand, and that i would be e-mailed even if i didn't get the job. so what the hell is going on?! i think it's pretty unprofessional to leave me hanging like this.
until i hear from them, i can't make any housing arrangements for the summer because the conference bureau job offers subsidized housing on-campus, which would be awesome. worst comes to worse, i'll have to work for aaa (my interview is on wednesday) and i'll have to sublet from elisa. i really, really wanted to sublet dave's room since he'll be in berlin for the summer, but he's already promised it to his friend jon. oh well. we'll see what happens...but if i don't update this thing over the summer, it's probably because i'm homeless. :(
last night was the last coffeehouse music night, this time with jesse dee. boy, advertising was a bust. i don't know what happened. i sent out an e-mail to every RA and RD on campus and a few to south hall and a few to my residents in particular, put an ad on tuftslife, and put flyers up around campus. but when 10:00 rolled around, not a single person showed up. not one. just max, nate, me, jeff and dave. we found out that the gospel choir concert was just letting out across the street, so we went over and solicited people as they left. miraculously enough, it worked. about fifty people got turned on by the sound of free coffee and more soul music, so they made the event a success after all.
it's just a shame that more people didn't get to hear jesse. what a voice.
after the gig, i went back to max's with nate and dave and the four of us played a drunken game of scrabble. well, i played a drunken game of scrabble.
then, today, max and i met up with evan, julie, dave classic, and their friend liza to get sushi at bluefin. man oh man, i love me some surf clam. afterwards, julie interviewed all of us about our ipods and iphones for a thesis she's writing about the sociology of music/ipods or something...i don't really know her argument but she said that my answers helped her out a lot. probably because i'm so weird.
it was absolutely beautiful out this morning and this afternoon but it started raining at around 3 and has only gotten worse since. i hate lightening storms. they scare me. i kind of don't feel like going out, but max's friend ally is having a going-away party tonight so i think i'm gonna go to that. or maybe i can convince him to just stay home at eat ice cream and drink with me.
oh! horrible, horrible news: rocky and hayley got kicked off "i know my kid's a star." my theory is that danny bonaduce was jealous of rocky stealing the spotlight in every episode, but max thinks that there's some reason we don't know about, like maybe rocky's an alcoholic or something. i don't know--all i know is that i'm going to miss that horse-faced, alexis cox look-alike and her adorable future trainwreck of a daughter. good luck, hayley, wherever you are. you're gonna need it.
1. having the cutest, most wonderful boyfriend in the entire world
2. not having any homework to do this weekend, except for a practice LSAT!
3. the first songwriting group meeting tomorrow
