I am a champ, or incredibly stupid.

  I believe I'm officially a college student now, having drunk to excess last night and made out with my (female) friend Sam. Three times. Was walked in on twice, the first time by one of our classmates. We're cool, though--Sam and I. But my major is tiny and incestuously close--"incestuous" is really the only word for it; dating is unofficially frowned upon and almost always ends badly--and gossip travels fast, and everyone knows.

I've been hungover all day and I have work in an hour. It's getting better now, though.

This is interesting!


And hooray, Christmas break starts tomorrow! I have an exam at 9AM, and then lab clean-up right afterward, but then I'm leaving for home~ My roommate got a job as an RA in a different building, so she should be packing up to move soon.

My room is an end-of-the-semester mess.


I cracked and signed up for the "Apocalypse/Dystopia" issue of [info]imaginarybeasts. Here's to me only being able to write one kind of character dynamic.

  Well, good news! Good news~~ *sings* My scores this semester are all either A's or B's or unknown as of yet. ^o^ Which means I get to relax and play video games until I go back next month. Whoo! Yay for Kingdom Hearts wholesome goodness. :3

Oh, and I love Lady Gaga's song "Teeth." Random note. Makes me want to wiggle since that's about the extent of my curent dancing skills with techno songs...lol. ^ ^

  - Read the latest issue of Gastronomica that the library has on the shelf. It's like the National Geographic of food in that the articles are smart, internationally-minded, and always, always well-written. (Art Culinaire is better for sexy food porn huff huff photographs.)

- Went on the meme, briefly.

- Posted to tumblr.

- Wrote a paragraph of my paper for American Cuisine, which is supposed to be a three-page reflection on American Cuisine and on an article the teacher gave us about it. Trying to do schoolwork at the library on a weekend is a negative feedback loop of fail: there's nothing to do, and you don't want to do anything because there's nothing to do.

- Went on Facebook.

- Told my mother in no uncertain terms that I do not want a box of wine for my twenty-first birthday. You can get a perfectly good bottle for $7, thank you.

- Got the most powerful, maddening craving for kielbasa. It reminds me of home, okay? Kielbasa is home.

  I have made a crucial and fantastic discovery over the past week.

Wine is awesome.

That will be all.

It's especially awesome when you and like six of your classmates are out in the dining room sneaking glasses of it while cleaning up after your event. Oh yeah.

  ☆ Post about something that made you happy today even if it's just a small thing.
☆☆ Do this everyday for eight days without fail.
☆☆☆ Tag eight of your friends to do the same.

1. My one friend's existence. His name is Josh Coons and he is whimsical and dilettantish and completely bizarre, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in the whole class who likes him. We will be doing lunch--"lucy"--next Tuesday.

2. Having dinner with and hanging out with my friend Jimmy. I can be vulgar, explicit, and poorly behaved around him, because I know he'll give it right back to me.

3. My teacher told me I got an A- on my Catering manager's report~! Awesome!

4. The semester is almost over, and that means actual time to write. (I signed up for Imaginary Beasts, sob. The theme was apocalyptic fiction! I couldn't help myself!)

...and I skipped yesterday too, bawwww, but I didn't have any internet access!

SATURDAY: I went to Boston with my club! (Student Pastry Arts, not Photo.) It was rainy and crappy, but our hotel was amazing. We ended up going to the Quincy Market, and then the New England Aquarium.

The aquarium. My god. The first thing I did when we got there was go to their special jellyfish exhibit, and I swear I spent a half hour, forty-five minutes up there. It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Then, I surfaced to go to the bathroom, went back down, and dozed off watching the Australian spotted jellyfish.

When I went up, I ignored the penguins and walked around the big fishtank. I swear, every third window was dads with their kids, and the dads were so excited! It was the cutest thing ever!


SUNDAY: Outlet mall. Perfume store. 212 by Carolina Herrera; The Beat by Burberry. Did not buy any, but I know what I want. (Was terribly appalled when the salesgirl suggested Ed Hardy perfume to my friend.)

Then we went to the Crossgates Mall, and I was dragged lingerie shopping by the president and secretary, who are practically my big sisters--the president delights in scarring me--and the teacher.

AAAAAAAH SO HORRIFYING I MEAN I MEAN VICTORIA'S SECRET WITH CHEF WAS AAAAAH EMBARRASSING AND THEN FREDERICK'S OF HOLLYWOOD AND MEGAN THE PRESIDENT MADE A COMMENT TO THE SALESGIRL ABOUT MY BIG CHEST AND AAAAAH.

Still! I bought four pairs of cute underwear at JCPenney under their guidance. I've never bought cute underwear. It was an education.

SON I AM DISAPPOINT

  Ah, now that Mia has defriended me without so much as an email, I don't have to bite my tongue and play mediator anymore. She burns through friends like they'd been pre-soaked in gasoline, so it doesn't come as a surprise. Her current team of cronies (a job with a higher turnover rate than McDonalds demanding roughly the same intellectual capacity) seem willing to defend her history of lying and manipulation. I wonder if they're aware that she's left previous roommates saddled with major debts. I wonder if they know she's used money donated by friends for the purpose of buying enough food to live to buy a Wacom drawing tablet. I wonder if they know that she collected $800/month in unemployment benefits plus money from her father plus credit from the card she recently maxed out, but somehow never managed to scrape together enough money to pay rent. Regardless of what her friends think, I'm tired of seeing her insult my friends.

Whenever threatened by responsibility, Mia flees. The same person who so often casts herself as the no-nonsense hero or the long-suffering heroine has revealed her true character. She lacks even the pride to be a villain: stripped of the online chats and self-pitying Livejournal posts she uses to establish an identity for herself, she's nothing more than a coward.
