today i slept late and went to class. the same old same old. I talked to sarah and i told her i heaved in a trash can and she drew a picture of me throwing up it was great.

I went with dora while she got an industrial. She looked like she was gonna pass out. It even made me nervous. After we went to lameo newbury comics on newbury street and they suck a lot. I didnt find anything i wanted. Well we were running through traffic when i slipped on the slippery boston streets and rolled my ankle. Its pretty swollen and gross right now. I was all sprawled out across mass ave.

When we got back Amanda Imed me and I went to Boston market with her and kristin then we got paint and went to her new studio apt. Amanda got her new sofa (my newbed) I plan on usurping that sofa any time there is a show on lansdowne street. Then we painted her hallway and it sucked because there were all these damn tiny suck ass crevaces and it was pretty ridiculous.

So we changed out of painting clothes and went to dunks but they wouldnt toast my baqel the bastards! so i went without. sigh. We walked back home and i think they went to do laundry the weirdos.

Tomorrow is busy i have a lot of things to do. I have to:
clean
do laundry
read a novel
make a bday present
help paint
write an essay
and more that i know i am forgetting!

yargh!

OK! Im so excited about my record purchases I didnt realize how many songs weren't on the discography! SO i was so excited while i was listenning to them. Anyways...

I felt really sick all day today. I came home and fell asleep in my bed. When I woke up amanda asked me if I wanted to go bounce on beds with her in cambridge and I said sure b/c she needs one for the new apt. I started feeling really sick again on the way home from the T and we got off at symphony and went to CVS. When I walked in the smell overpowered me and I ran outside to the trash can and tossed up my intestines. It was great. There were all these people staring as I showed off my stunning stomach pyrotechnics!
After I felt much better though and I am happy now.

Lately Ive ben thinking about being a vegetarian. I cant be one here b/c it is impossible to be a real vegetarian and eat in the dining hall. The cross contamination is vile. Ive been really aware of all the meat ive been eating lately and I dont feel good about it. I never used to think "ew this is flesh" but i do all the time now. I think ill wait till next year when I have a kitchen then I think i definitely will.

Tomorrow is the midnight madness sale at true value I CANT WAIT!!!!

I have been writing essays and today I listened to records! I really like it when Liz isn't around because I can listen to my records. I dont have headphones long enough to listen to records on my bed. SO I can only listen to them outloud and I don't feel comfortable listening to them when shes around. I feel like im getting in her space. PLUS, she's been driving me nuts lately! She keeps losing things which sucks for her but then she tears around the room and gets all pissed and I don't want to be a jerk and be like well it's your own fault but, you know, it is. And I just can't take how moody she is. I was talking to her last night and she was really leisurely and I said now that it's getting down to the wire I have a lot of work that needs to be done. And she was like oh yeah I have none and i wait till the last minute but I dont really stress about it and i was like yeahhh sure you don't. Lo and Behold today she's having a freakout session because she has a ton to do! She has so much stuff to do now and she was like oh yeah i got nothing to do yesterday which to me is soo bizarre. I really don't care if she gets her work done or not I just hate how upset she gets and drags it into this room with it's awkward small space. Today I was coming up to the room and brian stopped me and asked me if I wanted to go see the Ataris with him and I said no and I knew liz really liked them. So, when I came up to the room I knew she had to work but I told her they were playing anyway. If I miss a show I still want to know that i missed it and she got pissed at me for telling her. I suppose I understand that maybe she would have been happier not knowing but I dont know I would have wanted to know If i was missing a band I really liked.

Im listening to pretty girls make graves and I want to scream like her. alas. I cannot It breaks my <3

Other than my roomate driving me crazy Im good. We had a party today in workstudy and it was great! And in astronomy we learned about crazy dark matter. Margie is such a conspiracy theorist that she was freaking out after class. She was like 95% of our universe is unaccounted for in dark matter! 95%! What a psycho. heh heh. Plus! Im getting better. I am not really sick anymore! I have a test tomorrow so I have to study.

i changed the name to this post.
I am probably going to go to livejournal instead of this blog thing pretty soon when i get the numbers and the time to do so.

I havent posted in a bit because I have been heinously busy writing papers and doing shit. So saturday I saw Jess. She was in Boston visiting Emerson and I guess she really liked it. It might be fun to hang out in the city and what not. Right before we hung out I was feeling pretty shitty and I signed onto my secret IM name that only a couple of people know about and put up an away message saying that I didnt want to talk to anyone. Which was true except for amanda. Well amanda Imed me and my computer sucks so it crashed because I dont have enough memory to run mulitiple programs which is ridiculous. I really need a new computer. But I restarted and asked her to come with me to meet Jess and she said sure b/c she needed to finish flyering for the syndicate. So she came and Im really glad she did b/c we met up with Jess and she spent an eternity in the dressing room so Im glad I had someone to talk to.

Well Jess had to leave at like four so Amanda and I went to dunks and she bought me hot chocoloate b/c It was freezing sleety rain out and because amanda is just the best. We waited for Kristin and went to Cambridge. We went to a bunch of record stores. I bought way more than I could really afford to and i feel great/guilty about my purchases. I basically bought stuff that I already owned in some way. I bought two reversal of man records because although I have the discography on CD I couldnt resist owning ROM on vinyl. I bought a jeromes dream and palatka too. I felt retarded about the palatka record because I never buy two of the same records but I saw it and I just was wondering what color it was. I had the black one at home and this one was red marble and I asked kristin and amanda what they thought and they said BUY IT IT:S COOL! so I really couldn't say no. So after kristin points out that they have all these 7inches hiding in a back room that I had to ask to look at and there was all this great stuff but I didnt have time to look through it all. I ended up getting two policy of three 7 inches that i was pretty happy about. They also had a rites of spring button and all my purchases cost me 40 ridiculous dollars.

We ate at this retro diner that was pretty good but now I owe amanda money b/c i spent all mine at the damn record store.

So after we had to flyer more and we went to Newbury Comics b/c Amanda wanted to pick up some stuff and kristin wanted to see this guy she knew and I was really hoping that paul was working. Well paul wasn't working which saddened me b/c he's really cute and nice and helps me find really good obscure records which is why he is amazing. Kristin's guy was working and she asked me if I thought he was "hott" I said no that he has a receeding hairline and that it was sad that he was that old and still worked at newbury comics but thats b/c Im a jerk. I also saw a ton of records that I wanted but couldnt afford b/c I had already spent all my damn money. So we took the T to central square so Amanda could buy paint. But we were too late. The web page said that it closed at nine in reality it closed at eight and we were just in time to see Pete vacuuming and turning off the lights. Amanda was pissed b/c she needed paint pretty badly and had no other time to get it during the week. So we took the T back to NEU. When I got home I took a shower and climbed into bed witha movie and passed out at like nine. I dozed til around 11 when I fell asleep for real and I slept till one in the afternoon sunday.

Sunday I did nothing useful at all. My roomate, Liz, just kept running aroung insanely losing one thing after another. I told her that there was a gremlin in our room that just stole her stuff. She looked kind of angry b/c i thought it was funny that her things kept disappearing. I read a text I was supposed to read for west civ already and read like half of it and got so annoyed that I just threw it on the floor and said that's It im just gonna write the paper I dont care! I was already annoyed because my friends were having a "sex and the city" night and went out to dinner and I couldnt come b/c I had to write a damn paper. So when they came back I watched like two episodes with them and Halley bought me candy b/c she rules. So then I went back to wirting my paper. I got tired and quit around one. I slept

I woke up at 930 and got dressed and went to breakfast. b.c liz lost her Nu id I smuggled her breakfast out of the cafeteria so she could eat. I saw her in the hallway and gave her the food and I went to stupid psych. BUT! I found out that I have an A- in that class and I never go to lecture or really do much more than read the chapter and cram before the tests so thats pretty excellent. I think the class is really dumb so I really want to get an A so if I study today and tomorrow I think ican bring my average up if I do well on the last two tests. I think I can manage an A.

I wrote my west civ paper after psych before work study. During work study annie and ian helped me with the mail and brennan stopped by which is nice b/c then I have people to talk to. Also tomorrow theres a party for us work study kids so im pretty happy about that b/c i like parties.

In Astronomy we learned about galaxies. I like how my teacher takes things that could be amazingly difficult and calls it science stuff or something equally hilarious and oversimplified. I also found some jokes on a calendar I stole out of one of the journals from workstudy. I read then outloud and they were so terrible and I was so tired i couldnt stop laughing. My favorite one was what do you call a fish with no eyes? a fsh. Pretty terrible huh?

Then in English my bitchy teacher yelled at our class, possibly because she didnt snort enough coke before class. But we started this FANTASTIC documentary! John Cleese narrates it and its all about lemurs. Lemurs are my favorite animal in the whole world and John Cleese makes me laugh so hard. He talks about how the lemurs dont get a movie on their flight and he imitates the lemurs and talks about their stink fights. I cant wait to watch the rest of it in class.

I came back and wrote my paper and now I have to go study some sweet sweet psych.
