i ind this funny because i completely agree. julia and i are the only ones i know to vocalize our want to go to senior week. im not saying that i promise i will go to senior and have fun without drinking the whole time. not happening but i agree with the part abut hanging out. one time on the way to bagel bin with rob and nij they said something funny. they went through our friends and said who was "straight" or "lesbo". not in a bad way though. straight meant that ur up for anything and just want to have a good time no matter what. and i just thought that this reminded my of that. anyways good post and SCREW THE CRUISE. it wont happen. they wont be allowed to.

yeah but

It's not as much, if or if not it will work, but the mentality that they want to segregate themselves from everything else that bothers me. I, personally don't think it will work, but they honestly believe it will. That's what I don't like, that they want go period.

very nice rant danny, i agree with everything. many people have had this same or similar discussions, especially involving the prudeness aspect, multiple times. one thing that seems slightly annoying is the fact that the cruise people are planning on going on the cruise, and ditching many of their close friends who would do the normal senior week. seems like they dont really care about these friends, and just want to do what they want to do with no compromise whatsoever.

Re: yeah but

I agree, but who is being greedy? The friends who want to go and enjoy themselves(regardless of what their other friends want), or the friends who want their friends to stay so they can have fun(regardless of whether or not their friends will have fun)?

not quite sure......but i do know that a lot of ppl fully intend to keep the cruise thing going. and its not talking about things like shows where u need to plan. but things like we are bored and want to hang out but then everyone says no tonight is GIRLS NIGHT ONLY! thats annoying

Re: Cheyenne

[robinhoodlum22]

I can't honestly say I've ever heard "GIRLS NIGHT ONLY!", but thats the sentiment I get a lot of times. And yes, Aimee is right, a lot of people do fully intend to keep the cruise going.

why are we talking about senior week?! we are freaking sophomores!!! it was just an idea, not something to get all worked up about!

enh

[robinhoodlum22]

It's not about senior week. If you read my post, it's about the seperation in our group of friends. The whole cruise idea is a derivation and an example of whats wrong with our group of friends.

It was merely an example of why I am upset. When I want to hang out, I can't just hang with the girls, because that't never how we operate. Its either guys only/girls only or a rare mix.

umm

[fritzheartsyou]

maybe fritzheartsyou is not an adequate username right now. cause fritz is actually quite ticked off.
if what you're trying to say in this post is that you want to hang out with girls and guys, welll, hey so do i. i have a large family. my parents run all over columbia like every day getting us places, and always like to know where i am. last minute, hey wanna chill with some people in an hour? things don't really work for me. if you're trying to make a case that its cause some girls are prude that they don't wanna hang out with guys, you're WAY off base.
on the cruise.. whoever said it was just an idea, is totally right. an idea. i don't think your original intention was to start a senior week debate. but since it semi-turned into that, please (this goes for nearly everyone who commented about senior week) don't bash people who don't freaking want to get drunk. attacking peoples morals and values is beyond rude.
the end.

Re: umm

[robinhoodlum22]

I'm NOT attacking prudeness, that would be ridiculously hypocritical. Considering I DON'T want those things myself. So, NO, I'm not bashing you because if I did that I would be bashing myself too.

And look, I'm not the only guy, who feels this way. All I'm saying is that the guys hang out with the guys and the girls hang out with the girls. Thats just how it is about 90% of the time. And it bothers me.

It's not as if my parents don't bug me about where I am and when I get picked up all the time as well. I just get rides, and don't get them angry.

So i took what danny was saying as girls can just call up their girlfriends and hang out. Same with guys. What happened to calling someone up and making plans a few days before, next weekend? whatever. I feel like sometimes hanging out with a small group of close friends-both sexes, is more fun than say a mixed party or something a little bigger planned way ahead. idk. maybe thats just me.

And just my opinion, i don't think plans should be dropped just because of a boy-girl ratio. If your all friends, it shouldn't really matter...

[aimz04]

ok so this comment confused me but the whole dropping plans thing isnt because i want to drop them.....and thats why it sucks. i can never just hang out with ppl because a lot of my girl friends never join us. and the whole ratio thing is a rule of my parents. so thats why i said that but maybe i shouldnt have because it doesnt make sense

[anonymous]

ahh ya, that makes sense now, i agree.

[robinhoodlum22]

I don't know who posted this, but yeah, I agree. But I'm saying i just want to change the current boy-girl ratio.
