Hmmm

Boyfriend coming into town for one night and one night only.

It is the anniversary of the release of Star Wars.

I have Star Wars on VHS.

Movie night, yes?

Yes.

So the GPAs have come out, but no grades yet, and it’s looking like I probably have two Bs and two B-.

Technically, if this is true, it means that I have made my goal of all Bs and my parents will be letting me go to London. I’m not letting myself get too excited yet, but It’s looking hopeful.

I’m fairly certain that it’s not 3 Bs and a C because my Film teacher already told me that I have a B-.

Gah this is nervewracking. I find out tomorrow. Also tomorrow I go to lunch with the people I will be working for/with this summer so that’s also kind of scary.

Today I’ll just hide away and watch The Emperor’s New Groove on VHS. Beware of the liveblogging that will occur.

Well, I’m home from Nashville and back in Asheville for the summer.

Nashville was so much fun, as expected. Nate and I had a pretty great weekend which consisted of watching Thor while eating takeout, going to see The Avengers, a bit of, what I would call successful, sexual experimentation, playing a SHITTON of Super Mario Brothers Wii, and really just a good deal of fun all around. Heads up, I am WAY better than Nate at Super Mario Brothers Wii.

We worked for his dad for three pretty crazy hours on Saturday. His dad runs Middle Tennessee Icee and we ran a Icee booth for a local middle school festival. We worked literally non stop for three hours, just the two of us taking orders and filling Icees. It was crazy tiring work, but I made 30 dollars so that was good.

Now I’m back at home and getting my dad and sister to watch Mean Girls with me. All-in-all, a good start to the summer.

Update: DONE BITCHES

Hey everyone. I’m done with my sophomore year of college.

I’m at my friend Jack’s house now and I’ll be heading to Nashville today to see Nate.

I always feel awkward about being in someone elses house for the first time, especially if I’m sleeping there. I never know the social protocol of the house. I’m a very LNT* house guest just because I’m always nervous that I’m gonna mess something up.

Anyway, I’m excited to go to Nashville today. I just need to figure out the least awkward way to ask Jack’s mom if it’s cool if I take a quick shower. I think Jack is still asleep.

*LNT=Leave No Trace. We took LNT courses in mountaineering and it’s all about how when you’re camping you should always make sure to leave the place better than how you found it. I like to apply the same principle when I’m someone’s house guest…Making the bed when I wake up, wiping off the sink if I spray water on it, making sure I leave no toothpaste residue after brushing my teeth, etc.

Sorry for the giant block of text! Love you all!

Trying to do my front elevations for scenic design but I’m super sleepy. I’m thinking that maybe I could finish this one building and then go take a nap and finish the rest of the exteriors after dinner? That’s probably what I’m gonna do.

I just gotta keep myself awake and not drool on what I have so far.

My Only Two Visits To The Frats: A Study in Contrast

The first time I ever went to the frat houses, I was 18. It was the first weekend they were open of my freshman year and my roommate made me go.

I didn’t have fun. I stood outside awkwardly with a random group of people and talked to this drunk guy who couldn’t figure out how a bike worked.

I left very early.

Tonight was the second time I had ever been to the frat houses. I had a rough day, but it was the annual foam party, and Jack and Sarah insisted that I go, and that I would feel better. I went. We danced around, had fun, and I was kind of getting tired and thinking about leaving when ALL of our friends showed up at the same time. The fun started all over again. My guy friends picked me up and carried me under the bubble stream until I was soaked, we all danced together and messed with each other, I got pulled up on the tables by other friends. We stayed until the Phi Taus chanted their “Get Out” song.

This weekend has been one of the best weekends of my time at Centre and it’s all thanks to the fact that I have literally the best friends. I love all of you <3 :)

Gah.

Ok. I’m gonna try to write a draft of my philosophy paper like…today. I dunno how well that’s gonna work, but I’m gonna try to do it. Especially since I don’t have anything actually due for tomorrow. I’m gonna get a draft of my philosophy paper and figure out my topic for my film paper which I’ll try to get a draft of done this weekend.

I’m trying to get the two smaller papers out of the way before I start my huge paper. I’m not sure if that’s smart or not, but that’s what I’m doing. Gah. I’m spiraling you guys. SPIRALING .

Really, Walmart?

So I went to Walmart today because I needed basic food stuffs and also socks.

While there I realized: “Damn. I really have to go to the bathroom all of a sudden and very much.”

I looked around for the bathroom when I realized that I had never seen a bathroom in a Walmart. The Walmart Supercenter I was in had a Subway, an optometrist’s office, a pharmacy, a photography studio, along with everything else you find in a normal Walmart…but no public restroom.

I was forced to rush through my shopping (leaving Walmart with less of my money than they would have had if they had a place for me to go to the bathroom and thus giving me more time to shop), and then run across the street to the Dairy Queen where I relieved myself, and then when I left some creepy guy kept staring and waving at me.

Walmart, because you don’t have a bathroom, you forced me to be subjected to a creeper.

Lack of restrooms causes uncomfortableness in more ways than one, in this case.

There’s a single stall male bathroom behind me in my dorm’s lobby and this guy went in…

and when he came out it took him like a full 30 seconds to figure out how to open the door

like he forgot it was locked or something? idk

Anyway, I was staring at this door and when he comes out we make eye contact and I’m sure my expression said something like “wtf. yr dumb.”

and he just sort of quickly walked back onto the hall.

yeahhhh
cool story bro.

Wraslin’ fool.

So my friends Jack and Chris and Greg taught me and Hallie2 how to wrestle today.

They apparently get together like several times a week and wrestle and it’s actually a lot of fun.

I’m probably gonna be doing it a lot so WATCH OUT. I’ll SO be able to take you

Teacher you can not tell me I am too messy and then scribble all over my hard work saying that I’m being a “slave to the square” and that I need to try to “not use straight edges” for earlier drafts.

Stop telling me to not be messy and then telling me to be messy.
I try to clean up my work and then you get frustrated at me for trying to.

It’s all very conflicting and it confuses me.

Almost done with this essay. I might actually have time to shower today.

Okay. I’m sad it’s back to the worst part of a long distance relationship - the distance part.

However, I do have things to do to keep me busy today and tomorrow before I have to drive back to Centre. Dad got the whole family tickets to see the Hunger Games tomorrow (SO EXCITED) and mom says we can go to my favorite Greek restaurant sometime.

I do have a lot of work to do though seeing as I got NONE done on this trip, as I pretty much expected.

Whatever. I still miss Nate. I’m gonna gorge on airport junk food and shit now.
