Homework and Trivial Pursuit

I pretty much did nothing but homework today. After Desperate Housewives I went over to Kyle's to work on our midterm project proposal. It's so hard to do work with Cory, Matt and Lauren in the room. We kept getting distracted by Cory playing music and then Matt decided he was going to read Trivial Pursuit questions. Cory has Trivial Pursuit the 80s, 90s and Pop Culture edition. It was a lot of fun actually. He'd read a question and we'd tried to guess it. The 80s one was really hard. We finally finished our proposal and I decided to hang around. I was having a lot of fun just chilling out and answering questions. We ended up hanging around until 2ish answering questions and watching youtube videos. Cory showed this one video of a guy screaming at cats that had me crying because I was laughing so hard.



On a side note -- I love doing nothing with my friends.

The Great Escape

Britt and I didn't wake up until 1ish and then we met up with Darci and headed to the dhall for the hangover meal. Dhall is so great after a night of drinking. I had a pretty amazing omelet. Britt couldn't stay the whole weekend so we dropped her off at the train station. Darci and I went to the mall to look for a Halloween costume for her, but found out that the Galleria mall doesn't have a costume store this year. It was freezing out today. I hate the cold.

Later on I hung out with Jon, his friends Bennett and Matt, and Lauren. We just hung out and did a whole lot of nothing. It was pretty fun. Bennett and I matched. He had on a plaid shirt and I was wearing my purple plaid dress. I had wanted to take a picture cause we matched, but I forgot. I hung out with them pretty late. I got back to my room around 2am. I was watching the tv guide channel and found out that The Great Escape was playing at 230. It's one of the greatest and saddest movies ever! It's based on a true story and takes place in WWII. It stars Steve McQueen, who is just awesome. It's about a bunch of pows that try escaping and their time in the German prison. Go watch it. Now. I know Kyle loves it so I called him and asked if he wanted to watch it. I went over and watched it together and it was so awesome, but it was super creepy walking back to my dorm at 5am. I'll never get tired of watching that movie.

On a side note -- I really want to go on a road trip.

Brittney's Visit!!

Today was amazing! Brittney came to visit. She transferred to Oswego for education :( and she hasn't been able to visit until now. It was so great to see her again. I really miss her. I miss living with her, Jenn, and Darci. I like living with Kaitlyn, but I really miss living with them too.

We went to Friendly's and the service wasn't that great, but
the food was pretty good. We had a really shitty waitress. We partied pretty hard Friday night. It made me remember the times we partied last year. Haha it was really awesome. Sadly Jenn couldn't stay as long, because she had to drive back home and get up early for a camping trip. Darci had to get up early for work too so she didn't stay out that late. Britt and I didn't get back till late. She was staying in my room since Kaitlyn left for the weekend. I had so much fun even though it was really hot and humid.

Britt and Me. Last picture of a great night.


On a side note -- My camera, the olympus one that I take out on weekends, really sucks. I wish I had a better point and shoot, but it's useless to buy one since I have a DSLR, but I'm not taking that one out when I go drinking. I don't trust myself.

Pin-up Girls and White Rabbits

I came home for the weekend for the dentist again. I'm so sick of going to him because I always have to wait like 2 hours before I get to see him. There's no reason that I need to wait that long, but because the dumb people in the office schedule appointments for every 15 minutes, which is dumb at a dentist office. Anyway I went to Forest Hills and met up with Kriztille. We had tea and then walked over to the new costume shop that was on 71st. It was pretty cool. They had a lot of costumes that I want, but I eventually decided on the Pin-up girl costume. I want to curl my hair for the outfit on Halloween and I already have the cutest shoes to go with it.




We had some yummy ice cream after and then made our way to Barnes and Nobles like we always do. I bought a new book. It's part of the Masters of Time series, which I'm caught up on it. It felt good. I haven't bought a new book in a long time. It was a good day despite the long wait at the dentist and the rain, but I got to see Kriztille. It makes me happy when I get to see her when I come home.

On a side note -- I need to learn to walk in heels before Halloween.

I feel the scream crawling out of my throat.

I'm transfering. Or hopefully I am if Purchase College ever gets their fucking shit together. They wont give me a copy of my transcript. I'm not even asking them to send it to Hunter for me. I just asked if I could get an officially sealed to student transcript so that I can send it to Hunter myself. I don't trust this school to mail it or do anything. And obviously I'm right to not do so since they won't even give me my own fucking transcript. I used to love this school, but right now it's frustrating me so much that I can't stand to be here. I want to scream so loudly, but I can't because the stupid dorm I'm in has courtesy hours, which basically means I have to be quiet all the time.

I think I'm just going to print out my own transcript and send it to Hunter and I'm hoping they'll take it even if it's an unofficial one. If I can't get into Hunter because they won't give me an official transcript then I'm not going to school. I refuse to stay here any longer and pay $15,000 for a shitty school that can't do anything right. I'm paying for shitty, unhealthy food, a campus full of construction, an incompetent mail room, workers who don't know how to do their job. It's so frustrating and I can't take it anymore. I feel like I'm being punished and I don't know why. I might as well be a college dropout.

Raindrops on Roses

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things


The dentist is NOT one of my favorite things, my best friend is. I came home this weekend because I had a 930 dentist appointment. The dentist is ALWAY late and it annoys the hell out of me. He didn't see me until almost noon. Finally we started and he pulled that crap where the needle won't hurt, but it always does. I felt so shitty and number after wards that I needed to take a nap.


I woke up around 2 and helped my mom around the house for a bit before helping her start dinner. We made sloppy joes for me and lobster tails for her and my dad. My mom made me try it because I've never tried it before. I don't like it, which I knew would happen because I'm not a fish or seafood person. I like shrimp, but that's about it.


After dinner I met up with Kriztille in Forest Hills at Crepe and Tearia. We sat and talked for quite awhile before going over to Barnes and Noble. The weather was so crappy this weekend, and I didn't pack the right clothes or shoes for it, haha. We spent a lot of time perusing through the books, but ended up not buying anything. Books are so expensive now. Most of the books I found were like 15 dollars. They had quite a bit of marvel stuff because it's Marvel's 70th year. They had a lot of X-men books, which I love, but they were like 25 dollars. I'm too poor, haha. It was so great spending time with Kriztille, I'm really glad we got to meet up.

On a side note -- I don't know if i like clams. I like Manhattan clam chowder, but I've never really had clams outside of the chowder. So I don't know if that means I like them or not, haha. I guess I'll just have to try clams that aren't in chowder one day.
