Am completely blitzed by am writing this anyway and should probably spell most things correctly, because even though i make a lot of typos I also go back and fix them because of my anal nature. Moon in Virgo, or whatever the hell it is. For instance, that one sentence took about five minutes to type. Excellent party tonight because of Winter Carnival. Basically I was really glad to just be out of my room and able to hang out without worrying about midterms hanging over my head. Plus, people are awesome. And I was drunk. So that combination made for wonderful things. Good night, world :)))

Sorry I haven't posted in so long, but college has been kicking my ass with a vengeance lately. I've been either studying for midterms, trying to keep up with the reading, or drinking heavily in the dingy recesses of frat basements, and believe it or not this really has been the time of my life. I've met some amazing people here, thought a lot about my future, and had excellent drunken philosophical conversations, one of which involved a conspiracy of gay men in the fashion industry to turn women into stringy, self-hating, unattractive waifs and so become exponentially more attractive in comparison. It made sense at the time. Basically, I've been in an adjustment period, but it should be getting better and less stressful from here on in. And the moral of the story? Don't be pre-med. Bad idea. Of course, I have no common sense so I'm doing it anyway...

I had to get another mono test done today because the doctor thinks that the one I took on Wednesday might have only turned up negative because I'd only had symptoms for three days. So three more vials of blood later... they still don't know if I have mono. The test came back negative again but supposedly they'll be running more tests to make sure. Honestly, why can't they just figure out if I bloody have mono or not, and just prescribe me some steroids for the swollen tonsil and just have done with it? It sucks not knowing if I can go on my trip or not, and it sucks not knowing if my boyfriend's going to get sick while he's in Japan. I guess missing work today was a plus, but I just want to know, dammit! Fucking doctors. Pffthb. Punk-ass bitches, man.

So, I've got my DOC kayaking trip in about a week, I've got everything all bought and set to go, and we've already sent in the money. Only problem? I might have mono. Yay? Jamie swears he never had it, so I'm really not sure where I got it. The only bottle-sharing I've done recently was a bottle of rum and Coke with my boss on the store trip to Six Flags (which would be a hilarious way to catch mono if it didn't SUCK), but that was only for one sip/chug. That doesn't seem like enough to catch mono, especially since I never caught it from my ex-boyfriend back when we were dating... Whatever, there's nothing I can do about it, really, except rest and eat and hope I'm better in time for my DOC trip. I can always kick my boss's ass if I'm not.

Was laughing so hard at work today because my day was like something out of "Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo". Someone started to skip, randomly, and then we all started making jokes about incorporating breakdancing moves into our ringing-out routines, like doing the robot to pick up the scanner, etc., and then doing the "pass it on" wavy thing to give the customer their movies and receipt. I know that, like all truly great in-jokes, it sounds incredibly stupid if you weren't there, but if you WERE there, you would understand how fucking hilarious it is to thank customers with beatboxing, a head-spin, and a "You got served!"

YEEESSS AWESOME DAY! I got my rooming assignment AND my DOC trip info in the mail today! AND I even got some new bpal scents!I sent an email off right away to my new roommate, which I think was pretty damn responsible of me when you consider I haven't written my homestay sister in, like, three months plus. I'm in substance free next to the Connecticut River (IN A VAAAAN DOWN BY THE RIIIVER!), which would make it hard to get a decent drink except that there's non-substance-free about twenty feet away in Hinman and at least I won't get stuck with a cokehead roomie this way :) I'm still kind of worried I made the right choice putting down for substance free, but I think I'll be okay; I can always get wasted at frat parties, right (um, kind of joking. Kind of). Yay, so excited to have a dorm of my own, yay!!!

1. Grab the nearest book. 2. Open the book to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions. 5. Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.

Well, fuck; the BPAL forums are down and probably will be for at least a while, so I have no way to waste my time anymore. I may have to actually stretch out or practice my viola... Hah, at least I got out of the house today and got to hang out with a couple of friends and friend's friends down at the beach and then show off my NEW PUPPY OMG! We got a pug-doggy yesterday, and we ended up naming her Chili instead of Flea—anyone who can guess where those two names came from gets a gold star—but anyway, soooo cute! She keeps trying to catch her tail and running around in circles until she trips over herself and did I mention she is sooo cute? 'Cause she is. Off to stave off boredom somehow :)

My third day of REAL summer vacation, now that I've graduated! The whole ceremony went pretty well—no one faceplanted on the walk up to the dais and I got a lot of compliments on my speech, so I guess it didn't suck as much as I'd thought—and PGP was just a fucking lot of fun, even if I didn't win anything and there was only soda to drink ;-). Vacation's off to a good start, too, what with a party yesterday and another one in a few days (yes, I'm a total party animal *sarcasm*) and just generally being able to sleep in. It's kind of weird, knowing that I'll never have to go in to school again, but the weirdest part is that my phobias have apparently decided to manifest themselves by giving me panick attacks about things I may or may not have forgotten to do in the past few weeks. Gr, I'm so retarded about that sometimes. I can't find my summer reading book now, so I guess that's God's way of telling me to shirk my educational responsibilities for a little while longer. Plus, it's a beautiful day and the beach is calling, so yeah. :) Off I go.

Ugh. That cold I had two weeks ago? Back with a vengeance and currently keeeeling my lungs. The doctor didn't tell me what was wrong, either, but I got some medicine out of him so I guess it's all good. Seriously, though, I've had enough of being sick and I definitely don't want to be coughing like a tubercular Bohemian during graduation on Tuesday. Plus there's nothing good on TV, just reality-TV weddings and reruns of really bad movies. I thought that at least I'd be able to start reading the book for my Freshman seminar so I don't have to worry about it when I can, you know, actually leave the house, but it's about a doctor and I think I've had enough of that for a while :-P I wish I had something more interesting to say, but really it's incredibly boring being sick.

Did a search for ballet communities, and about half the ones that came up were support groups for people with eating disorders. Damn, am I the only dancer in the world who actually likes to eat? Not that I really consider myself a "real" dancer anymore...I haven't been to a class in over a month, and I haven't been really working at improving for about a year now. It always sucks when stuff like this happens, but at least now I'll have more time to practice my viola and try not to disgrace myself at auditions once I get to college—my current conductor's son conducts the Dartmouth orchestra, and I don't want to suck when I show up and say I was section leader under his dad :-P Think I'm gonna go practice right now...

Corporate's running their dumbass commercials again, but this time it's not just "No More Late Fees!" but also guaranteed in-stock new releases. I swear, every time they do this we get people who don't read the disclaimer at the bottom and just ASSume that they can turn their movies back in whenever they want. Grr. Most of the time I really like my job. I get to help people find movies (which makes me feel like I've done a good deed even though...only kinda), and most of the other people who work there are funny, and good people. It's just the one bitchy customer out of 50 that makes me want to quit and find more rewarding employment, like waitressing *sarcasm*. I just keep telling myself: this is why I'm going to college. It makes me feel surprisingly better :)

I just realized how long it's been since I posted a public entry: almost a week, and even that last entry barely counts because it was pretty much just "I have a cold, woe!". Pathetic. Surely I can waste more time and energy on the internet than that? I've got a bigass mosquito bite on the bottom of my foot from my friend's goodbye party on Saturday, and I know you're not supposed to scratch bug bites but I can't help it because it on the bottom of my foot and it starts itching every time I walk. It may sound like I'm just whining about something stupid, which I guess I am—but it really is the mother of all mosquito bites. Like, I don't know how I missed this thing because the bug that did it must have been the size of a fucking housecat. Unbelievable. At least I have graduation—and graduation parties—to look forward to. And I get to make a speech at graduation, so...cool. Don't know what it's going to be on, but I got a few suggestions I'm taking to committee. The best one right now it to make a very long, boring speech about "my personal role models" and other sycophantic bullshit, then when everyone falls asleep, to yell out "scrotum!" really, really loud (no surprise that that was from a Center kid). But we'll see.

Two weeks left before graduation, and I'm stuck at home with a cold? WTF, God? I thought we discussed this. Anyway, I could probably waste everyone's time by complaining about either Bio or end of year projects (or I could multitask and complain about my bio end of year project), but I'm too sick and not cogent enough to bother. Bleh.

Had a pretty nice skip day today—I got to sleep in, have lunch with friends, finally get my damn debit card (that's a whole different story), go to orchestra rehearsal for a while. Maybe not the most exciting thing to do with my day off, but I didn't really feel like going down to the beach and drinking with a bunch of people I don't really know. Not to sound like an alcoholic, but it sucks having only one friend with any interest in drinking. ANYway. So tomorrow is rehearsal all day, from 9 in the morning until, basically, the concert at 7, with a few breaks in between. My wrist is starting to freak out on me from all the practicing...I'm just hoping it's not the beginnings of tendonitis or anything, because then with my left hand and my left foot I'd have, like, a matched set. I just had to pick hobbies with high chances of join injury, didn't I? :P

Took the day off from school, because class has gotten so riddonkulously boring that I've started slouching down behind friends during lectures so I can read Pride and Prejudice in peace. Between the boredom, the papers for independent health class (SO not kidding), and an upcoming biology test, I figured I'd earned a break, right? Hey, if anyone gets the chance, download/buy some songs from Spamalot, because they're Monty Python and they're funny as hell. I got a few tracks from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) audiography the other day and I just wanted to sing "The Song That Goes Like This" the whole time at work today :). Awesome.
