A Week and A Half Later...
So a week and a half later a lot of stuff has happened, I mean, I think it has if I can remember it. Last Friday was Valentine's Day and instead of going home, I did the thing I thought would be better for me, I stayed at school with my friends. First, I woke up and did the Chem lab thing, then came home and got stoned, then went out with Raluca to he DMV, then got food, then got stoned again, then went to see a movie in the Campus Center ("Heavenly Creatures," gotta rent it because I missed the middle), then came home, got stoned and had some vodka. Basically, I tried to completely block out Valentine's Day. I hate it, I do, I actually hate it. I hate it because I resent the people I love because they have valentines, and I don't and I want one. So, Saturday I drove home with Raluca and a bunch of people, and long story short, I peed on the West Side Highway. I really, really had to go and it had to be done. I mean, I wasn't about to pee in Raluca's car, and that's what it would have come to. When we got to the city, I had lunch with my mom at Ollie's and then ran around a bit. We went to dinner at Docks, which was delicious, but I didn't want to be there with my mom and grandma and Barbara. I wanted to be there with my friends, I wanted to have a real birthday dinner...oh, well. Sunday my mom drove me back and we went to lunch with Cate in Red Hook before taking a trip to the Super Stop and Shop to buy beer and snacks for my party. After my mom left, I realized that I had left my wallet in the car. There was a lovely little tantrum moment that occurred when my mom refused to drive the 10 minutes back. I mean, 10 fucking minutes, we even offered to meet her. I needed my wallet!!!! We ended up out the money situation and went back to the Super Stop and Shop to buy more beer. Sunday night was my birthday party. Kelly came and gave me the sweetest present. She gave me a bag full of Orange Tootsie Pops, my favorite! Thing was, she knew it was my favorite, but I couldn't remember ever telling her. She knew because once, about a month ago I mentioned that they were my favorite in a conversation about doctors. She remembered and went through a whole bunch to get enough, they never have enough ORANGE. She's the sweetest thing and I'm glad that I told her, even though my heart is a little broken. In my mind, I want to say it brought us closer because I was honest, but I'm probably just making that up. Anyways, my party was a lot of fun and Monday was my 19th Birthday!!!! It snowed, sooo much snow, SOOOOOO MUCH SNOW!!!! But of course, none of my classes were cancelled. My birthday was just like any oher day except for the fact that I got stoned and I'm not so big on that during the week. Cate and I were supposed to go to see the Indigo Girls on Tuesday, we were so excited!!!! I couldn't imagine anything more wonderful for a birthday present to myself than a Indigo Girls concert. It was cancelled due to snow fall in Wilmington, which is where the concert was going to be. Instead, I went out with Manny and Kelly to the Eveready (?) Diner and then watched "The Birdcage" in Manny's room. I love hanging out with them. They're so fun and happy, and they just make me want to smile and laugh all the time. Wednesday I had classes, but my knee was horribly swollen and painful. I think it was from making a snowman. Oh! That's also what I did on Tuesday. I rolled around in the snow and helped to make a snowman, it was like every dream I ever had as a child. It was amazing. So, back to Wednesday, Queer Alliance was good. I then came home and did work. Thursday, what happened? I went to my classes and then came home. Nothing exciting. No! That's a lie. Thursday I had a presentation to do for ISROP which was so scary. I couldn't remember what I was saying and got all flustered and Meg was being so quiet. It went well in the end, but so very scary. Afterwards, Nina took pictures of me for her photo class and I went home. Now we're up to Friday, but I don't have the energy. Later...
