weekend blitz

Well.... this weekend has been interesting. First of all, how come my weekends never seem to last very long? Seriously... its like Satuday just FLEW right on by. Thats horrid.

Anyways, Friday was pretty chill. I got a lot of reading done during the day. I went running with Brandon and I felt like a person again. Nothing like stretching out the old leg and lung muscles. Lashaun came over and we watched 28 Days Later. Um... I hate zombie movies. I don't even know why I wanted to watch it. Ugh. Zombies freak me out no matter how good or badly made the movie. Thats just so unnatural. Anyways, after the movie Lashaun and I went down to the Alpha's Sleepout for the Homeless. That was amusing. Everyone was just sorta chillin and loitering around out on the Morrison basketball courts.

Black people, my people. Ha... there was a neverending spades came going on that I didn't even want to get involved in. Plus, Atrayus had that old school Street Fighter on his computer. I wasted half my life on that came... really. It was all about some Chun-Li though. She was/is my girl. I beat Joe and that made me happy, but then he beat me and then he was beat by Nick. It was crazy. I got to see Daniel who is always beyond ghost, he's like poltergeist as I was telling someone else. Anyways, eventually Brandon showed up with Angelia so I chatted with them. Brandon and I kept going back and forth to his room so he could get a lil drink of something I like to call "Strength Juice". Then we would come back down and mingle.

Anyways eventually we sorta got tired of that. Brandon and I went back upstairs and bothered Angelia for a while. Apparently, she lost her passport, which is bad. She looked for it for a while, but decided it was either in her car or that she left it in Lauren's office in the Underground. Not much to be done that night basically. Anyways, Brandon was in sorta a pissy mood so we left Angelia's room. So I was gonna go back to my room, but of course I ended up following Brandon back to his room. Where we discussed what was upsetting him among other things. Then his roommate returned so I was like "Come with me to my room."

Haha... of course when we get there, my roommate is back and she's fast asleep. However, this does not faze us as we take a quick U-turn to one of the lounges on my floor. And why did we really take it back to freshman year and talk for like three hours. I feel like we got ot the lounge at like 1:30 am and we didn't leave til like 3:30 am?!?!?! Thats that good friendship! But on the real, he really needed to get some things off his chest. Sometimes, it scary how similar our lives are, but I guess thats why we're such good friends. I mean from just family, to stuff we feel about people on campus, to thinking about whats going to happen after we graduated. Its odd... but hey life is odd. Anyways, after he left I went to my room and got a few hours of sleep because......

I had to go to work the next morning. I finally returned to the basketroom after a month of absence. I saw my co-worker Shelly for like the first time in a month and that was cool. She also works at the SRC and she's just really energized. Ha... its cute, but kinda annoying. She's also '06 and its just weird to meet people from my class i've never seen before. As Brandon said, its like where have you been? Anyways, I finished up my reading for my classes on Monday and then continued to read through articles for my paper. I really need to start this paper today by the way.

Anyways, work was INCREDIBLY slow, but the hours went by fast. Once I got back to my room, I had to quickly get dressed b/c I was suppose to meet Derwin for dinner. That was cool. We started off at Cosmic, but the line was crazy so we went over to Pizza and Pasta. Derwin is always a great dinner companion and we have good, but crazy conversation. Basically its a great stress reliever. If you don't know, please go and get some Derwin Dubose in your life. Catch him quick, he's only got one more year here! Anyways, he dropped me back off and my dorm. For some reason I was exhausted. I wanted to wash my clothes, but clearly that didn't go down. I just layed on my bed and watched tv. While I was wasting time, Bernard called and he wanted to know what I was doing. I said that I was saying in b/c a) i'm poor and b) i was tired. He called me wack and said he was coming over anyways.

So Bernard (aka Papi aka my ex-husband) came over and we chilled for a while. He got on IM and talked to some people, then I got on IM and talked to some people. He made plans to go to Legends and he also showed me the new boy that might possibily be in his life. Go Bernard. So he left and I cleaned up my room. Then I got drawn into a billion (not really) IM conversations. Brandon called and I proceeded to BREAK MY PINK PHONE!!!!! What the fuck? I mean really I was talking to him and then I leaned back on a pillow and SNAP! The flip part broke off. I thought I was going to cry. The pink phone is a legend in its own right, everyone loves the pink phone? I just couldn't understand it? Anyways, thought I can still manage for the next two weeks.... or more like i'll have to managed. I'm appalled really.

Anyways, Tracey also dropped by for a visit. We chatted about a "friend" of hers who was annoying her. I suggest that perhaps he thinks he can become more than a friend. She rejected this and it appears she is in a classic ladder theory situation. So.... that sucks for the guy. Clearly, he thought he was going to jump ladders and got kicked in the head and is in real danger of falling into that abyss. If you don't know what i'm talking about then go and google "ladder theory" and read up.

Anyways, this morning I spent an hour calling us cellular trying to get my phone activated. Tell me why there is no US Cellular retailer ANYWHERE in the triangle apparently???? At least not according to their website. What the fuck is that? How do you not have a US Cellular retailer in the triange? I mean, what the fuck? Seriously... i'm pissed. I'll try again Monday and just look it up in the yellow pages or something. But damn.

Anyways, now I must work from 1-8... or really 1-2:30 and then 6:30 to 8:00 b/c i have some volunteering to do inbetween there. Wish me luck as I go and work the health fair for latinos at St. Tomas More.

post MCAT unnecessariness

Well..... the MCATS are over. That was a mess. That physical science section raped me over and over again. And it enjoyed it. I wanted to cry, but I kept it inside. Verbal was fine, my essays were crazy but I think that went well, biology also was as expected. Oh but I shall definately be taking it again. Joy, joy in my heart.

Actually bitterness and anger and fear in my heart. And that actually leads me into the more amusing/upsetting part of the evening. And so without further adieu......

So... Saturday afternoon I got back and tried to get my life together. Everything was so surreal and I couldn't even concentrate on anything. Anyways I got various calls and IMs and was reminded of the four way bday party for folks that was taking place in Mill Creek. So i'm like... ok i'm down with that and I think "I can get drunk there."

YES I DID GO OUT WITH THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF GETTIN FUCKED UP!! I TOOK THE FUCKING MCAT BITCHES.... I DESERVED TO DESTROY LIVER/BRAIN CELLS!!!

Anyways so I get my life right and get dressed to go to the party. However, I am STARVING!! Thankfully Brandon and I are on the same wavelength so he calls and says he's hungry as well. So I go to his room and after fighting with his cancer ridden computer we order chinese. While waiting i'm like "I need to drink Brandon." And he pulls out his handle of smirnoff. So i'm drinking and i'm drinking and i'm starting to fill the buzz already. So I stop. Ok... our food comes and Brandon goes to get it.... next thing I know i'm drinking ANOTHER drink while he's gone and it was definately more vodka than orange juice. That would later prove to be a mistake.

Anyways I eat and then Bernard calls my cell and says he's downstairs. So... Brandon helps me down there. On that way for some reason we decide to stop by Angelia's room. Well lo and behold not only is she there to see my increasingly drunken state... but Dimia, Bernard (another one), and Ben are there too. Delovely... so i'm sure we'll be discussing that later. Anyways I get in the car and we're off.

We get there and please believe I am GONE! Oh yes... I fell up the stairs to the porch and on the porch as well. A short time later, I was taken back to the car and my stilettos were exchanged for flipflops I had in my bag. Then I was returned to the party. Well I remember circling around and saying hey to people and then I was on the couch. I remember Craig and Tony forcing me to drink water. Then I black out... next thing I know I'm being taken up the stairs and i'm throwing up in a corner somewhere. They put me on a bed and I black out again and then I wake up and throw up again.

I was glad to be taken care of, but I felt sorta bad. People kept leaving the party to come up and talk to me. I can't even remember everyone who was there. I just know people were in a out like I was on display. But thats what happens when you are mind numbingly drunk. Ugh. Anyways at some point I apparently started convulsing and hyperventilating and crying. I was a mess. My life is still not right as a result of last night.

So I get back downstairs and the party is going strong. Somehow it went from 11:00 pm to 3:30 am the blink of an eye. Like it was ridiculous. Anyways Bernard was upset and he carried Julian and Garrett and Chris back to campus. Then... honestly I don't even know what happened btw that time and him coming back. But I know I took another tour around the room and maybe even out onto the porch. I saw people I knew everywhere and apparently talked to them accordng to reports I got today.

Anyways Bernard took me and a couple other peeps home. Ridiculous... he was so pissed and bitter. But I was in no state to do anything about it. We talked about it today.... i'm a little upset at the conversation, but I was out of line last night so i'm going to let it go. Anyways now I must concentrate on the lab final I have tomarrow.

Got to get my life right.

oh my god... what the fuck?

So.... this is the story of why I didn't finish all my work and why i'm up at 3 am on a Monday morning.

I was working quietly away when I recieved a call from Bernard. He informed me that he and Son (Garrett) were coming to visit. I hadn't seen them since Friday. So anyways they get here and it just gets crazy.

Garrett somehow manages to once again get into everything. This boy washes his face with my stuff and then puts on makeup! Ha... he looked like a straight whore. Quote with that outfit: "Now hold on here chief. Imma need you give us 50 feet... and get me a bottled water." Haha... then Bernard followed suit, but he decided to make his makeup look like he had been domestically abused. Why? Because thats Bernard.

Then we start watching tv and shit comes on that just makes no sense. MTV 2 late at night on Sunday is crazy. Please watch SIC'EM on MTV. It is bananas. The night just continued to spin crazily out of control for the rest of the night. Ok then we started to just watch random shows, but we were hungry. So we ordered a pizza from Gumbys... why did that bitch take like an hour to fucking deliver???? We ordered at like 1:30 in the morning. NOONE ELSE IS FUCKING ORDERING PIZZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways then Garrett and Bernard are eating and we discover a fucking hair in the pizza? Oh hells no. Thats it for me and Gumbys I will sign the divorce papers in the morning. This is of course after I finish writing my spanish paper, cover letter, and personal statement. Ha... I absolutely love it.

Anyways though, then Garrett was doing his cheerleading dance (and I saw this coming) knocked over his glass of juice and spilled it on my rug. That rug has been faithful to me for three years and only water has ever been dropped on it. I'm so sad. But its all good.

Now we're just chillin on bed like whoa. Now you may be thinking: "where is your roommate?" Well Arthi left to study before the boys showed up; supposedly anyways. We are so well matched Arthi and I. We have similar study habits and we're both excellent students, we just procrastinate. Its all gonna come back to haunt me one day. Horrible, horrible, horrible of us. Anyways i'm going to go and play with the boys somemore.

weekend madness.... GO HEELS!!!!

This weekend was bananas.

UNC is once again were it belongs... THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME... and soon we'll be where we were destined to be: NCAA CHAMPIONS!!!!

I am too hype about that.

Anyways on Friday I took a trip over to the Union for the QB. That was delovely. Of course alcohol always helps things right on along. It was fun... we did a lil pregaming in my room. A whole big group of us. I'm sure my roommate was quite amused.

Anyways so we get there and i'm looking crazy (in a good way) thanks to Bernard. And we're dancing. And i'm running around. Its delovely. The food was good... don't know who did it, but kudos to them. Those lil wrap things were delovely. Who all was there? Well the important people were Bernard, Justin, Sam, Garrett, Julian, Brittany, Pooja, others. Point is it was a nice little get together. Everyone looked nice and/or hot. Go UNC and go random people who came also. Of course there was the afterparty at Garrett Hall's. That was bananas... I don't think Garrett's apartment was ready. All I know is my feet weren't ready; my shoes were killing me. Just say no to stilletos. That will be my motto for the rest of this year. TRUST!!!

Anyways Saturday I was hungover, but I had mad work to do. So I squared myself away and did get alot done actually. Not enough though because there is plenty left to do today. The bright spot from Satuday was the game. Oh thank you oh basketball gods Sean, Jawad, Raymond, Rashad, Marvin! Thank you oh great Coach Williams!!!!! Ok enough blatant paganism. Lets move on.

Today I took a practice MCATS. Ugh... I hate physical science. But its all gravy. Now i'm home wasting time when I should be working. The updated, multicultural version of Cinderella with Brandy and Whitney Houston is on. So i'm watching that. I"m hungry too so i'm about to order food.
