what nasty nasty week. feel like i haven't done anything productive....read human stain again (made me feel inferior, like it tends to do), did some (probably ineffectual) teaching, some jogging/laxing/walking (mostly walking, naturally)....i just up and ditched the last week of classes since i was just shopping Union Square 6 hrs a week anyway...
well.....thurs i finally saw italian job w/ angela & charlene, those cars are SO hot & mark wahlberg's not bad either...then to bed, bath & beyond where angela went gaga over the 'portable egg poacher' & i knocked over their multicolored towels in their 'towel room' (shit, ikea doesn't even have a towel room)
then fri, went to class, then an office party w/ dad (he wanted to 'show me off'....do all parents do this? it was awful! i had to sit on a sketching bench in a white pleated miniskirt w/out smearing charcoal all over it)...then, cuz dear ol' dad wanted me to look presentable, i stomp down six blocks of ugly san francisco road in freaking 4 inch stilettos, and up into his office, where his team members (all women; isn't dad a lucky bastard?) are bragging about being ex-homecoming queens/cheerleaders/pageant winners/julia roberts look-alikes...great.
sat went to SF & partied hearty (yeah right - it was dad & auntie tessie's joint b-day)....nah, we just pigged out & had an 8 hr movie-marathon...that was cool
today, went down to berk to get my ID card, since i was too lazy to do it during CalSO...ran into alex (2nd time in a MONTH!), and chatted about how i'm too neurotic for my own good. thas what big church brothers are for, right? heh. well we started a new week @ institute, and now his highness andy swan is here. brilliant. well, roy also showed up (you know, since there's this secret conspiracy among the LD team to come invade my class one by one and overthrow me...good luck suckers! and u know y that'll never happen? because my room is protected by the good grace of Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku wa za Banga, "The all-powerful warrior who, because of his endurance and inflexible will to win, will go from conquest to conquest leaving fire in his wake", as well as Kabila, whose ruthless murderous tendencies automatically don't matter since he's so goddamn hot.) yah. roy is tight. that's all for today.

damn i'm addicted already. someone stop me or i'll be uding like 20x a day. i've just realized how many ppl i still need to say goodbye to (ack!).....you're all leavin so frikkin early!!! i seriously haven't realized till now how completely awful it'll be w/out being able to be silly w/ y'all, cuz i can't really act lesbonic around ppl i'm not like sisters with, right? and if i can't do that, well, there's really no fun in life.......but really, i'm sitting here talking to people and realizing that there cant be as many ppl as quite as amazing as u in berk, AND IT'S SO AGONIZING!!!!!
so i gave that infuriating topic up, and went jogging again....since the clasps on my blades mysteriously cracked.....naturally, once elvira showed up, i gave up on running and just talked for an hour (bad influence!!!! but a fun bad influence!!!)......tim's cute lacrosse buddy never showed (no strange looks, alright? he goes to connecticut college or university..whatever.....) and now i'm getting just a tiny bit sleepy....so i'm going to go to sleep....and miss the samurai jack episodes i've been strangely fixated on lately.....and pass on my mother's 4 DVD marathon...speaking of which i finally saw the pianist, and it felt so indescribably strange to be adoring adrien brody while he's suffering through the holocaust onscreen, but hell, i did it anyway cuz i just can't help it....it's so bad that when the little 30 sec blurb for it comes on the TV guide channel, i just sit there fixated and watch him.......wow.....i reeeeeeeeeeeeeelly need sleep

1st blog baby! i start everything late....e-mail frosh year, AIM senior year, now this. let's see how well i keep track of this...so lately, i've had an interesting summer....skanky little party w/a pack of juniors instead of graduation....someone was SO sexy (u know who u are =)....massive shopping sprees w/ Ma (long live Haight St & Stop the Clock!!! friggin $26 for BEAUTIFUL pumps.... got thisclose to going to paris (PARIS!!!) w/ my french freak, but noooooo, i've gotta move into STERN of all places on the 17th........hmmm...CalSO was cool, met cool ppl, like Christina, Alexis, Evelyn, Sonja, Lehan, Sanjay (GO BEARS!! AND ENGLISH MAJORS!!)...had a really quirky counselor...signed up for classes (moooooaaaaannnn)....checked out stern....now my beloved MV speech team can room in my dorm @ the gazillion Berk tournies next year!!!
so i'm takin classes @ academy of art (figure drawing = getting charcoal under my nails while staring at ugly old nekkid ppl who glared @ me for 40 min stretches; motion pics = while teacher flirts with the editing room clerk, we ditch class & go union square shopping....hail to the evil vuitton ladies who look down their noses at us lousy, dirty teenagers....but hey! emily & i tried on our future wedding rings @ tiffany's!! (i'll avoid the obvious joke there, the horror the horror).....we also discovered the 'fur salon' @ saks, where u can, just in case u have, like, a $400,000 mink coat lying around, get it altered to a more flattering shape (wtf??))
....ummm....i'm also teachin @ institute (nerdiness is a tough habit to break, unfortunately) , where will & ray have essentially overthrown me & taken over my coaching duties (but hey, they're brilliant, if a bit obsessed with mobugatu whats his name, so what am i complaining about?)...the kids are actually REALLY nice this time, no more lame cracks about threesomes from horny azn preteens, thank GOD.....also, gratitude to Dieu for letting Lise & Lauren also be there, cuz otherwise i'd DIE of seclusion from the rest of (normal, oh wait, extempers don't count =p) society......
let's see....i actually DO have a social life, believe it or not.....saw a slew of awesome movies w/ awesome ppl.....finding nemo w/ kev, russel & elaine (oh, what an AMAZING movie, lemme just say that the turtles were SO cool & now i wanna work for pixar)....legally blonde w/ elaine (kinda choppy, & the fashion didn't live up. damn. but elaine did hehehe)...uhhh....double decker w/ my gorgeous yi tai tai...charlie's angels (yes! EXCELLENT clothing. and demi moore needs to die. no one deserves to look that good when they're 40. except my mother, naturally) & T3 (BEST terminator yet. the moment when he looks up in those shades is so classic)....sadly, jen was half asleep, and then our brothers decided to 'get lost' and we spent an hour afterwards lookin for them (damn children...grrrrrr)......then, LXG w/ jen, again, but this time w/ jeff.....had an interesting reaction, cuz stuart townsend was SO beautiful, and so was shane west, and i want to be peta wilson....but none of them could act.....and sean connery kept klunking around drooling over his ridiculously irritating accent....gah! but we DID see an EXCELLENT preview for the Order, and if i may say so, heath ledger looks friggin delicious in a trenchcoat.....i was SO tempted to steal that 20 ft movie poster.....
escaped the suburbs on sat w/ elvira & lise.....went shoppin @ great mall like the deprived danville children we are.....found this gloriously slutty pleated miniskirt that i really really really wanted, but my good honest pals luckily told me the folds didn't fall right (or r u not quite ready to see my tan-lined legs hee hee hee....)
ANYWAY......i will hopefully update obsessively for the next week, and then forget this blog exists. Ta ta!
