"Welcome to California"

Feb 05, 2004 15:38

I was gonna wait till I got the internet in my place goin to update yall niggas but I got some time to kill between classes at the library so I'm gonna give it a shot. Things are going well over here in the lovely University and community of Chico, CA. I live in a "Cluster" village sorta thing, I got 3 other roommates we all got our own room and we share a kitchen. The first one I met, Kyle, has a pretty serious mohawk complemented by a foresty chin beard. When I say mo-hawk, we're talking 7 12 inch erect spikes gelled up right through the middle of his head lol. You really can't make these things up. The kids alright tho. Dan is another roommate, he's always bangin his g/f. If he's not doin that he's usually at her house or what not. He's got a guitar and he's teachin me a few things, all I really ask is to learn crash or stairway to heaven just so i can have that goin for me. The other roommate scott is a frat guy and is usually sleepin or out doin frat stuff. Pre!
tty cool kid tho, we're hittin up his frat party this weekend so we can meet his cartell n what not.
On the other hand Don was not so fortunate w/ his roommates. I met a couple of em; one couldn't be torn away from his computer game to have a conversation with me, the other one has a super neat collection of assorted cereal boxes in his room (a real cereal killa) and joked about that being where he spends all his college money. But maybe I shouldn't judge cereal by it's cover or maybe I should go with my gut instincts on this one (inside joke), either way don says it doesn't seem like they do much. Who knows actually, he's always hangin w/ us and for all we know he could be living with 3 Van Wilders.

The parties out here are pretty phat. The entire set up of the town is completely different actually. It's like an actual town and not a farm. I'd say it's like a Worcester with palm trees, but just throw in a like a bunch of blocks with one story houses, with the exception of a few frat houses here n there. Every party we go to the people accept us with open arms, and some of the houses are actually big enough where u can party inside. Which I really can't imagine doing at UConn, just going to random parties- even small ones- and just crashing in like we have and the ppl bein cool w/ us there. But usually it's not really an outside, freeze ur nuts off party. A few have been but it really isn't that cold up here. At night it's in the low 40's, day 50's or high 50's. The concept of snow is foreign to the people of chico so that's pretty cool. They say things really get goin in about a month or so when it gets warm and the skirts start comin out. If this past weeken!
d was any indication of whats to come I'd say we picked the right school.
Nothing really crazy-stupid has happened thus far other than some jaw dropping panty droppers and nights of inebriation. Well.. actually
one nigth me n don are takin the mile treck back to our place when hear Brittany Spears bumpin in this house. Drunken Heat is in love with Spears and thinks OBVIOUSLY if the girls playin her shit gotta be hot shit too. So we go knock on the door, they let us in, it's like 3 of em in their pajamas. They call a cab for us. Don was pretty much makin no sense to them. And I'm just chillin tryin to make conversation,
"So what's your story, sweetheart?"
This hungry hippo smiled, and came over
"That's the second time ya did it. Call me sweetheart again and I'll punch your face in!"
My jaw just dropped, "WOOOOKAYY, Don I think it's time we'll be leaving now," and just dragged him out. Tough crowd eh?

I'm glad to see you all enjoyed the commercial. Liz Filardi was a pleasure to work with. I gotta say it wasn't an easy job selecting her out of the 2000 tapes sent in, friendships came to an end, feelings were hurt, eating disorders were developed... but hey the end product speeks for itself. I look at the few w/ disorders as casualties of perfection. Ya wanna make an omelet, ya gotta break a few eggs. But the recent success of the commercial has got me thinkin. And I'm with Sturg 110%, we're gonna make this DVD this summer and it's gonna be action packed. Think of the commercial as a single from the album. It's time we start embracing our Bottom Line roots. And me and sturg can't do it alone, we need you, yes you girl. And as you can see of course it's a lot of fun (except for when ya just have to tell a kid with a good heart 'NO'). I got a ton of ideas, and I'm gonna start puting my sketches up on the private LJ's. It'll be our way of effeciently conducting business from coast to coast. Good talk, see ya out there.
