Europe is not really a continent, it's just the stub of Asia

So despite everyone telling me that everything was going to be ok and even with my department being behind me one hundred percent, I have lost my three month battle with the administration. I'll have to take an overload just to take one of my languages. I'm feeling rather down at the moment, so if anyone can do that silly little post memory ( Read more... )

I remember you tucked up in the bed on Skye, clutching a fifth of whisky. I remember all the times you did the Katie Dance at the bop. Haha, I remember creating all those hot new dance moves in the Cellar with you and Kenny and Richard and Alison - the Chest Press, the Plumber, Stirring the Bowl. I remember crying together in your room over the thought of leaving. I remember you running about in your undies at the bonfire - even though I didn't realise it at the time. I remember singing "they'll stone you hunh hunh hunh hunh hunh hunh etc" with you. And sneaking people in and out through your window. And talking about love and life with you. And the day we went to the clinic at the union and ended up laughing hysterically at those hideous girls. And the truly terrible muffins. And snickering in the back of social anthropology over the classic comments that the professor would make. And the day that we were doing that identity art project and you stuffed all the scraps of the clippings under your shirt and looked at me and ( ... )

Aww thank you! That really did cheer me up a lot! Haa haa....BABIES EVERYWHERE! I can't believe I did that in class. I lost all self control and couldn't help myself. It was as if I were possessed by that commercial. That's marketing for ya...

May Dip! You were on absolute fine form that morning.

I was absolutely wasted that morning.

Well, I only met you on a handful of occasions so I have few real-life memories to pick from. None bad though. I guess that's something. :)

I do remember your apparent alarm when you thought I was talking about bestiality in The Sinner chatroom, and my subsequent policy of talking about each time you came in the room. Hehehe.

I had forgotten about that....I was just playin' with ya ;)

Oh where to begin.... being crazy on Skye is a high point as was traipsing around at the Aquarium during the ball and at the Castle Ceidilh. Umm..your fabulous story about Prince William at the May Ball. You waking Sleigh up the night before the May Dip. You at the May Dip. Singing and dancing crazy in the bop. I misss you!

katiembear February 5 2005, 22:06:26 UTC

I misss you too!

I remember laughing with you a lot. I remember kissing you (you're definitely one of the best kissers I know). Less than a lot, but more than a little. I remember Skye! That remains my happiest drinking memory ever! And I remember the block of cheese--and the bottle of whiskey. I remember pinching people's bums with you, and bringing hugs and sunshine into many a Brit's life through our touchy-feely shocking women's college ways--particularly Sleigh. I remember walking you home from the Union not long after our arrival in Scotland, and you rambling most of the way. I remember trying to put your nose piercing back in . . . that's not such a good one really. You were laughing (halfheartedly), crying and trembling all at once. I vaguely remember exchanging back massages at girlie night . . . without shirts on. That one is definitely hazy. I remember worrying about you. I remember sitting on beds and talking about life and love and relationships and some theology ( ... )

The problem is, I've decided not to go into the workforce next year but to graduate school. As such, this whole situation is rather devastating for me.

hmm memories....haa haa...I think both you and I did shock a number of people with our antics. Funny thing is, none of it would have been shocking at our own colleges. Good times.

Oh dear. Yeah, I suppose I'm sort of doing that too--but creative writing somehow doesn't seem quite so . . . worklike, I guess. And I'll be working as well. Good luck my dear! You're brave. But you'll get it over with sooner. I'm sorta jealous you know what you want to do. Hang in there anyways--you at least get a summer at the end.
