wow so I haven't posted in mad long. Lots of shit happening, Florence happened, that was great. Coming back to Bing was surprisingly great, I was pretty distracted in Florence(obviously) so I didn't realize how much I missed everyone until I got here and saw them. Been chillin and shit...no idea how to even describe what's been going on. Too much, I am a bad blogger...the purpose of this blog is to keep you up on my life and I have been letting you all fall horribly behind. Then, when I finally attempt to update you, I have let so much time go by that I don't even know where to start. I will tell you all that I am going to Cali this summer. MAD EXCITED! This is exhausting, I hate writing this shit, so I am not going to write right now. 

Goodbye

ugh to posting...

lots going on lately...too much to even describe...one thing I can definitely remember is getting the flu....the actual flu...not just flu-like symptoms...but literal influenza. It was horrible, I couldn't even move. I was sick with that for a week, and now I have the sniffles but am basically okay.

Spring in CIW is starting...its been a crazy 30 degrees and people are already outside playing frisbee and football. Im SO excited. 

I'm going home this weekend, mainly to see Arwen. She is having a birthday party for her dog so I will be attending that. We are also planning for the Caymans so I am glad. I love planning trips with Arwen because it mainly consists of..."lets just go". Ahh spontaneity!!

31 days until opening day at Yankee stadium and 22 days until I leave for Florence :)

I'm sorry this post sucks...but I don't have the time or energy to write everything that goes onnnn lol, its so muchhh. I feel kind of sad because all this new stuff is happening to me, soooo many new people and new experiences, and you guys are going to come home and not understand any of it. It's the stuff that doesn't translate through blog that matters, which sucks, because I feel like you aren't really up to date on my life. It is going to be sooo different next semester! I am going to have to split my time between you and all my friends now. Even little things, like eating dinner together every night, aren't going to happen anymore. It is just very odd. Whenever you guys come up in conversations my friends are always like "OH! I forgot you had friends abroad!" I obviously haven't forgotten you, I miss you soooo much but it is like I have a whole new life here and I don't know how to mix my new life at Bing with my old one for when you come back. I feel like I am going to be phased out a little bit :(. We all know that if you miss dinner ONE night you have also missed 80 million inside jokes. I am going to be missing so much to spend time with all these amazing people I have met and I just feel like I won't be able to keep up, like I won't really be part of the group, and you won't really be part of my life, not like you used to anyway. There is going to be this whole other side of me that you guys aren't really clued in on, not completely...and that will just be very very very very different. 

Anyway sorry for the ranting in the post...it is the only way to talk to all of you and I just kind of write how I feel (megan...feel what you feel). Also sorry for the bad grammar, I'm sure there are many run-on sentences and a serious lack of apostrophes but I don't really care about grammar LoL.


To Scotty--> I met a boy I feel that you should be best friends with. He might love the Beatles more than you, and is an all around awesome person. I think you would enjoy him, he reminds me of you...only not as good of course.

heyyyy

what is good my friends...lots has happened since I last posted, and because of that(although this blog is intended to prevent things like this) I am likely to forget a lot of important stuff that will confuse you later when I assume that you know it. ANYYYWAY let me start with the furthest back I remember, which is last weekend.

Friday night we went to Sherri's birthday bash...yes Meg, your old roomie(BYE BABE!). It was pretty whack but I had fun anyway because I was with Kourtney, Sarah, and Amy, who are becoming my best friends. Well, actually, we are already in love and already best friends, the 'becoming' part is over and now we just 'are'. Ok so we went there and just chilled for a little bit,then came back mad early, which wasn't a problem bc someone drove so it wasn't a waste of cab money. We decided we were really hungry so we went to the diner, which was SOO ghetto....the waitress was so old she was about to fall apart, literally. There were also these loud obnoxious old ass people sitting at the table behind us. They must have been in their 70s-80s and they were screaming about how so and so dances with 7 different women in one night! And then some old guy screams out "Fuck me in the ass on the table!!"...SOOOOOO WEIRD!!!

Saturday we vaped (got high using a vaporizer) with the boys next door. It's pretty amazing...there isn't like any smoke...well there is...but you just like breathe in from the tube like you would normally and then all of the sudden, after a few hits, its like WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM(haha Alli, Welcome Back). Like I said it doesn't really have smoke so you can't smell anything...so we just did it in their room. It was beautiful. After we vaped we watched Across the Universe, which was okay, wasn't anything very special to me. 

Then the week happened, which was not without special events, but I don't remember them. Thursday was Valentine's Day, and we all just chilled. That brings us to Friday! Yesterday!

Went to class, came back took a nap, went to the mall with Amy, Sarah, and Santa(yes a nickname, one you will be hearing often). We then started getting ready to go out. We pregamed in the Q and then went to Kyle's suite in Mview to pregame again. There were sooo many people in the suite it was like a little frat party. Anyway so we went to that mini-party but then we wanted to go out, and it was 11:00, but we found out open bar at Mad Moose didn't start until 12. We really didn't want to wait so we went to the Rat first. OMG the Rat has never been more amazing(except maybe for my 18th birthday). It was so unbelievably fun! Oh we also got in free because it was Aryssa's birthday. Anyway we had a blasty-blast there and then went to Mad Moose. Very cool place, with a totally different atmosphere from SB and the Rat. It was very chill..pool tables, live band playing amazing things like Stevie Wonder songs mixed in with some Jay-Z, and a HUGE bar. It was so great. Anyway so we just chilled the whole night it was pretty amazing. We came back and went to sleep and here I am, writing.

OH!! On Valentine's Day Arwen was on the radio for an hour!!! She had an hour long interview and they played 5 of her songs!! I got a shoutout of COURSE...it was so amazing. I cried, my best friends dreams are coming true!! AHHH!!!

Ok Kourtney, Amy, Sarah, and Kerrin...and me...are going to eat. 


Love Love Love 

p.s. this was written in a rush so Im very very sorry if it doesn't make a lot of sense :) :).

forgot to add this, Romney is also out of the race, and now ignorant conservatives don't know who to vote for, because McCain isn't assholish enough for them. 
Hello Hello.
I have been reading everyone's posts and I must say I am sad to hear most of you aren't intensely happy in your respective places. :( :( This may be a weird/bitchy/insensitive segue...but I couldn't be happier. I went for a job interview on Wednesday to be an aide for an autistic child named Ben, who I can tell will be my life if I get the job. The job pays 13.50/hour, with no taxes taken out, and an option to make more money as a babysitter(different than aide because an aide works with them to get them used to/acquainted with 'normal' interactions...is more of a 'life' teacher). At the very least, I would be making 202.50 a week for 3 days of work :) :). Which would help with the bills/my drinking. I am also thinking at applying at the gym, where I would just be an office assistant...only thing with that is, you apply for the following semester, so it wouldn't be instant income. 

My classes are getting harder and harder, although two of them are also getting more interesting. This next bit has nothing to do with anything, but the boys next door just screamed, CUM IN MY FACE!, which I thought was interesting. Anyway...

So remember Jeff? The old RA? He came to visit, and brought alcohol for me, Cailin, and Lauren. We found out afterwards that it was his birthday, and that he didn't celebrate with anyone. He also became a cop and gets shot at every night...? He stayed for hours and hours...we think he looks at us as his friends and came to chill on his birthday...which is sad and weird and slightly annoying all at once.

Our friendship with the boys next door(haha, girls next door, can I be the hefner equivalent?) is progressing...and by that I mean we are totally biffed. It's awesome.

Oh, I got a zebra-print blanket that is as soft as...intense softness

Strange Coincidences
1) Kourtney knows and is going to the birthday party of Sherri, Meg's old roomie, although she is not crazy incredibly fond of her. 
2) Kourtney's friend is in Florence and has met Megan
3) Kourtney knows Patrick O'Maley and JareBear and has made fun of both on many occasion, just from looking at them in the gym together.
4) You all already know this, but Kourtney is friends with the current residents of 198 West End, and goes to their house every Thursday.

Also, Arwen is makin moves...she will be on the radio Valentine's Day, if you are near a computer and your internet isn't being gay (it seems they have very homosexual internet there) then you can listen online...will post the site once I verify what it is.

1st week back!

So my first week back as been sort of an adventure. I started off lonely and sad, but thanks to Kourtney who is my saviour, I am back to my jolly self. Kourtney is really fun, as are her two friends Sarah and Amy who I am becoming friends with. It seems very strange that I have only known her a week, because it seems like we have been friends much longer than that. I am happy to be branching out more and I am loving all the new people I am meeting. I kind of forgot Bing was so big and that there were so many people I didn't know already. I've met soo many people both through Kourtney and on my own. There is a cute boy that I met...will keep you all posted on that :). The other day we went to AC Moore and got felt/velvet posters to color in and they are now decorating the Q. When we went we got 50% off coupons for Tuesday and Wednesday so we are going back to get paint-by-number things. 

Classes have been way intense, I can't believe how much work I have already. It is insanely hard but I am keeping up with it thank the good Lord. Speaking of the good Lord, He has blessed me this year. I am taking a class called Psychotherapy and the professor of that class also deals in forensic psychology!! WAAA! My dream!! I am going to email him and bother him with endless amounts of questions. I hope to get close with him, because applying to school as a forensic psyc major will be a lot easier with a recommendation from someone who is a forensic psychologist...at least I hope. More good news, my history class has a LXC option which I am going to participate in, and for the psychotherapy class, you have the ability to earn up to 12 points onto your FINAL AVERAGE! I'll say that again, you can earn up to 12, that's right, 12 points onto your final average. So, if I have a 78 (C+) I can turn that into a 90 (A-). Please just think about that for a second. The extra credit consists of doing psyc experiments (Alli you remember those from Psyc111) and they really suck, but they are well worth it. 

Megan has informed me that the internet sucks so much there that she sometimes falls behind on American news, so if for some reason you have time only to check my blog and not CNN(my blog is way more important) I am going to outline a few things for  you. Both Edwards and Guiliani have dropped out. Guiliani is supporting McCain while Edwards hasn't officially given his support to either Hil or Bama. Bush wants to spend another 3.1 TRILLION dollars on Iraq, which would of course add to the deficit, seeing as we dont have that money and he doesn't want to raise taxes. Being abroad I'm sure you haven't heard this next bit of news...Bush is stupid. Hannah Montana is being sued because her song sounds exactly like another song (I've got my sights set on you-->I wear my sunglasses at night). Interest rates have been cut and the movie The Eye is getting rave reviews. 

The Superbowl was on Sunday(Sunday? Big surprise) and the Giants won!! The boys in the suite next to us went crazy and they put their passed out friend in the garbage room. He is cute, I went and looked. 

I am coming to Italy in 46 days and will be able to drink a lot because I don't have to spend money on a hostel. 

P.S. Kourtney is friends with everyone that is in Rep Co, and I am meeting all of them, jealous?

Love Love Love all of you and miss you slightly...thats a myth....miss you like crazy!! I will talk to all of you soon and will be posting more when I get the chance. 

MWAAAHHHH

Yeah, I did it

Since most of you are creating blogs to keep people informed about your lives I figured I would do the same. Just because I am still at Bing doesn't mean my life isn't continuing. Therefore, new things are still happening, which I am assuming, as my best friends, you retain an interest in. Well, I hope. New things have already happened before I started this bloggy so I'm just going to get right into it. 

So I moved in (which took me hours) January 26th. The drive up was actually nice. It didn't seem to take very long and since I was alone I got to sing at the top of my voice in the car without embarrassment.  Now, you all know about my speed twin, and I think that they found me on that car ride up. Someone kept switching lanes whenever I did, following me the whole way until I got off at the lovely 70S exit. At first I was worried, but then only joyous, for my speed twin had found me. Anyway so I get here, start lugging shit up to the Q, and moments later who walks in but Kourtney with a K. AHHH so nervous! It was actually pleasant, and has been pleasant ever since. She is awesome, very chill, and extremely funny. There is no awkwardness between us at all, and it feels like we have been living together for months. She is extremely considerate, has interesting stories, and is very easy to talk to. We already have inside jokes, about Patrick O'Maley (who she knows all about), and lots of other little things. I have to say I am happy.

Classes are good, although I can tell this is going to be a really hard semester. Things have been SO awkward with youknowwho (not Voldemort) when I have class with this anonymous person, but whatever, I'm over it. 

Anyway I miss you all terribly, but unlike the first couple of days here (during which I was miserable) I am starting to have fun. So far Jaash has been the only one to videochat with me, and I hope you all don't stay too starry-eyed to come inside once and awhile and turn on the computer. 

So Au revoir, Arrivederci, Adios, Do videnja (that's croatian(croatin) for Josh) until tomorrow when I write again.

P.S. classes were cancelled today because they fear a deathly ice-storm...I don't think I'll be able to walk safely for weeks.
