I suppose an upsate is in order. But there's no way to explain what this weekend was at all.
Thursday: Study all day. Pick up Mason at 10. Mason and Bonus go to Freezer. Both come back trashed. Mason crashes in my bed. I study all night.
Friday: Take two tests. Do okay on chem. Fail math. Come back, Mason gets ready, and we go to lunch with a bunch of people. After lunch we meet up with Turner, Jena, and my Love. We all go down to ackerman, and they eat, while Mason and I get cups and chasers. After they eat, we come back get Trinh, Zak and a few other people, and drink a few rounds. We play gamecube until Brian gets off of work. He comes over and we drink some more. We're hanging out on the floor, with a bunch of people now. We leave to go eat dinner. Turner gets sick in the dining hall, but maintains his cool. We come back and the party is on again. Music drinking, and muchas personas. We party most of the night. Watch some swingers, it fails. Play more game cube. Mason and I go for a late night on-campus walk, which we may be turning into a tradition. Come back and hang out with the two people closest to me, one in my arms, and the other sitting next to me, and I kicked their asses some more at Super Smash Brothers. Crash earlier than wanted to due to much drinking.
Saturday: Wake up late. Everyone gets ready, and goes to breakfast. Come back, pack, and with a car full of very good company (i.e. Bonus, Mason, and my Love), we are off to SD. Too bad there's horrible traffic and it takes like four hours. We get into SD, go to Katie's house, play video games while we wait for Bonus' mom. Me, Mason, and Katie go to Nico's, and then to PL to see Zeiger show. It was alright, highlights being gay sailors and like the five people I knew. Afterwards we went to In'n'Out, and there was a nice little group of us hanging out. We go back to Katie's and Mason schools everyone in video games. Then we all go to sleep in the den.
Sunday: Wake up at 12 instead of the planned 9. Get ready and meet my parents. THis takes longer than needed. Then we go to Nico's. Grab food and meet people at La Jolla shores. We eat and hang out with everyone, then over awkward goodbyes Maosn and I leave to come back to LA. We speak much of love, life, and the future. We stop by temple on the way. We get here and eat our second set of burritos, and we watch School of Rock. Then we watch scrubs, and go to sleep.
Today: We wake up early and get ready. We go to starbucks and have some breakfast. Then I take my best friend to the airport and a good hug with a quick farewell, I have to leave, fuck LA and it's rush with everything. Mason is safely in Monterey. I am sick. I miss him, and Katie.
In fact I miss everyone, being home with Mason and Katie, and just being with them all weekend made me realize that no matter what happens I will always feel homesick. Mason will never be back home to stay for the next 5 years. The person who can make me forget all my worries just by hanging out with me. He'll never be here long enough for me to stop worrying, for a long time. And Katie is my home. She's the person I feel satisfied and complete with. And when I have had all of this all weekend, along with old friends, new friends, and old friends rediscovered I realized how tired I have become this year, how stressed, and how jaded. And this will last another good many years as well. Sometimes all I want to do is be hanging out with my girlfriend and my best friends, eating burritos, watching movies, and telling stories of all the dumb stuff we've done. But in the end, I realize that it is not going to be like that for too long.
I wish I had my best friend a phone call away from meeting me to rent a movie, because that's the only way to bury the worst.
I wish I could put my arm around my Love and curl up behind her every night because that's the only way I can sleep soundly.
I wish I didn't have to feel like wishing any more. Because all too much life has become that for me. One big wish that won't be granted.
Man this quickly turned in to the buzzdeath after a really good high. Let's leave it.
