Obama, Jean Theft, Fuzzy Pet, Blasianess, Weekend Home and Bay State Happenings

Okay, so I've been meaning to post for awhile now, and fearing that I would forget things to write, I wrote a handy dandy little purple sticky note, which I have right here next to me as I type. So, there's a lot of little bullet notes (it goes onto the back of the note) so I better get started. 

I will start with a couple dreams I've had (this is for you H): 

Dream 1 (yes, I'm going to number them):
For some reason, me and my friends were going around trying to raise money for Obama... I'm not exactly sure what the money was for but yeah... And as we're going around collecting cash from people, who happens to walk by, but President Obama himself! So what do we do? We hand him the cash and strike up conversation. Apparently he's been stressing because America is on the brink of war! It looks like there's about to be a world war 3. So we're all chilling with Obama, and somehow he finds out that I've got the amazing ability of telepathy. That's right people, I can move things with my mind. So now me and Obama are like tight (crossing fingers to show just how tight) and even in my dream I know it's because he wants to use me in the up coming war- Maxine, the secret weapon. So me and my friends go to this big fancy dinner that Obama is holding (for some reason I think it's being held in the Tower's dinning hall). And my dear friend H is there sitting at one of the tables- in my dream, she's also my roommate, sorry Teresa. Here's where it gets foggy, and sorta turns into Dream 2...

Dream 2: For some reason I must have left the fancy dinner. I go up to my room and something seems suspicious. You see, earlier I had seen these too black girls in the room across from mine, and it looked like they were stealing stuff, but I didn't want to go around accusing cause I wasn't sure, I mean, I don't want to be called a racist or anything (also I was preoccupied with being America's new secret weapon and all...) Anyways, I get into my room (which is unlocked! How stupid of me, to leave it unlocked when I went to eat dinner with Obama..) and I find my wallet, but nothing is missing... weird right? So I check around my room, and when I open my closet, I find out that those bitches fucking stole my cloths!!! I've got like nothing left in my closet, except for this hideous pair of bright velvet pants that I have never seen in my life! So I rush out of my room and can hear them in the echoey stairwell and chase after those bitches. I catch them outside getting ready to load their getaway car (it's pouring rain also) and yell out to them as I see one girl putting my jeans in a bag, "You stole my jeans! Give me back my fucking jeans!" and I'm all up in their faces- it's Hockey Maxine- and they're getting nervous so she gives me back me jeans. But then I see the other bitch packing my skirts away, and I start freaking out again. Eventually a cop comes and I explain everything before getting a glimpse of my purses which really sets me off. Like even I'm a little afraid of Angry Dream Maxine. And I'm talking to the police telling him everything, and he's disgusted by this theft, he's all "They stole your purses?" in a 'how dare they' voice, and I'm like uh-huh. I woke up though, but I have a feeling I got all my stuff back. 

Wow, this is a long post, but read it all. Read it. (shakes fist)

Dream 3 (this one is short): 
I was in the pet store, and they were selling is really cute orange fuzz ball things that swim in water... they were so cute, and I wanted one so bad... They were literally like a little fuzz ball, about the size of my hand, swimming around (I think they could walk on land too). They were so adorable, like you have no idea. And when I woke up I was all like awww, but then I realized they don't exist, and then I was impressed by my ability to make up such an adorable creature. 

That's the end of my dreams, but not the end of my sticky note bullets... sorry, hang in there?

Okay, so I thought up a new Blasian idea, that sounds kind of weird to me now, but i'll just say it, what if I came up with a Blasian Afrasian nationality anthem? Also, I've thought up the BAU like in Criminal Minds (Behavioral Analysis Unit) but instead it's the Blasian Afrasian Union. What what?! 

Also, is Kobe Bryan Blasian? Somebody told me he was, he's not on the wiki list of Blasians, and I tried looking it up but failed. Anybody know??

Okay, I'm going to try and hurry things along... I went home two weekends ago because I was on crutches cause I have tendinitis in my foot. I will never go home again for a weekend, only for holidays where the dorms close. Anyways, when I was watching TV in the living room I saw movement out of the corner of my eye and looked and guess what I fucking saw? A fucking chipmunk! In the fucking house! (excuse my language). But seriously?? My mom was eventually able to chase it down to the basement where it died overnight I guess... sad I know, even though it was in my house, it was still kind of cute... I asked my mom how the hell it got in the house and she said she had left the downstairs (all of them) open to air out the basement, and she didn't think anything would come into the house... Sigh.. 

Okay, hockey has started up again, really happy about that. 

And last thing!
I've started seeing some weird happenings on Bay State. First, one morning I saw a guy unicycling down Bay State to class... It was a very odd sight, and I liked how everybody was staring at him. Especially the cop standing in the street, the cop literally like turned his head around to keep looking at the kid, and he just kept staring, and didn't stop until the kid was out of sight. The look on his face... 

Also, on the way back from class, I saw that guy who rides his bike and has a little boom box bungey corded to the back blasting music. I saw him slowly riding down the street with one hand on the handle bar all cool. I admit, although I could hold back the laughter, I could not hold back that little grin at the sight... 

Okay, that's all I have to say, I've got to hit the gym now, which I am not looking forward to. 

Sleepy, 
     Maxine 

P.S. If somebody actually read through all of this, I will be very proud of you. If not... the disappointment is there...

Glee, LL Cool J, Alternate Elephant Universes and Quote of the Post

I am currently watching Glee. And sitting in my big comfy blue chair. Teresa just came back in. She says we now have a TV show to watch on Weds at 9pm. And I must inform her that Criminal Minds comes on then...

Anyways, on to some different news... it has been confirmed. By me. That there will indeed be an NCIS: Los Angeles. Starring LL Cool J. Well, I'm not sure if he's actually star of it, but he's definitely in it. A step up from Deep Blue Sea? Who knows. I'm also not sure how I feel about an NCIS LA... NCIS is on its way to becoming the next CSI... Miami *gasp*! What do you think about this LL Cool J NCIS LA?? And if you were wondering the show will premiere on September 22. Thought: is LL Cool J supposed to be the LA version of Morgan?? Hmm? Something to think about...

Glee just made me laugh. If you were wondering. 

So a few nights ago I had an interesting dream. First of all you should know that it was an alternate universe. Where global warming was affecting elephants in the wild. And where elephants lived in extremely hot climates that were located right next to freezing cold ones. So one second an elephant is walking in the dessert and the next they're trekking through the snow. But like in our universe, the ice caps are melting! Except in my dream universe, the elephants are drowning, not the polar bears! (which is interesting because I had a polar bear dream last week...) So the elephants are drowning and fleeing. And somehow I get a pet elephant (that was abused by his previous owner) though I didn't think of him as a pet, more like a friend... Anyways, to speed up the story, through a series of unfortunate events, and through no fault of my elephant (he was provoked by mean people) he ended up trampling me in his stall... But really, I don't blame him at all. It's the mean people I blame. 

So that was a recent dream I had...

I'm not really sure- okay I totally got distracted by Glee and looked back at my computer and read that sentence I had started and had no clue where I was headed with that... Thought went right out of my head. 

So I'll just end this post at that. Oh wait no, I'm going to end it with the Quote of the Post: "OCD, I'm thinking more like OMG" - Derek Morgan, Criminal Minds

Also, Glee just make me wish I could sing,

history of s'mores, more NCIS, and pies!

So, curious about who invented s'mores?? I sure was, which is why I wikied it! And then googled it. Here's what I found:
1. S'mores comes from the phrase "some more", as in give me some more of those delicious treats! Wiki says "its meaning hints at the desires of campers who are not satisfied by just one s'more"
2. Couldn't find where s'mores come from, but a bunch of sources say the first recipe for s'mores can be found in the Girl Scout Handbook of 1927. 
3. Apparently s'mores are very american and also canadian (or popular in those places)
4. S'mores have become so popular that Pop-Tarts produced a s'mores flavor (which I have seen, but have not tried)
5. More on where they came from. All the ingredients were "readily available" to americans by the late 19th century (so says some random s'mores site). Evidence shows these ingredients were used on a regular basis, but does not tell us when they were invented or by whom. So where did the idea come from? Victorian cookbooks have recipes for "sandwich cookies" while american cookbooks in the early 20th century contain recipes for chocolate sandwiches and marshmallow sandwiches. Finally, apparently american food companies were combining these three ingredients in the 1920s, such as mallomars and moon pies. 

That's as far as I got before I got bored... We may never know where these wonderful delights came from, but does it really matter? Let us just enjoy the pure genius of them- no need to understand them or their history. 


Now, I am currently watching NCIS- it's a particularly funny one... it's the halloween episode where some little girl is kidnapped... anyways, yesterday I went to Preeya's house and we threw a frisbee around in her yard for a bit then made a PIE. An apple blueberry pie. It was delicious. 

Oh! I have a short story to tell. A few days ago I went out to lunch with my mom and I was telling her about what my dream house would be like- I was describing the bay windows in my library- and when I paused to get some feedback from her she looked at me and said "your eyebrows are getting thick" so yeah... I'm not even sure if she was listening...

Also, we're cleaning up the house- getting it ready to move and all... and guess what? Not only did they rearrange a bunch of our furniture, but they also gave us a plant to put in our living room! it's green and makes the room look nicer... They did not bring the painting they said they would bring tho... 

Anyways, I'm hoping to go to a red sox game this week, but it's going to rain so it might be rained out... I'm hoping for the best though... 

There was definitely something else I wanted to discuss, but I can't seem to remember... Oh well. 


Time for more NCIS!

bad cable, romantic cold case, wet rain and s'mores

I believe it is time for another fabulous post by yours truly. So today there was an NCIS marathon going from 11 to 8, it was wild. I started watching at 12, but then the cable went out at 1, so I got to watch one episode. Then the cable came back at about 1:05 and I got all excited before it went out again five minutes later. That's the worst, when they let you watch a little- just enough to really get into it- and then take it away from you. I called the customer services people and they couldn't help me fix it over the phone so a cable guy is coming tomorrow or something to fix it. I was very upset, but whenever I talk to customer service people I try not to show them that I'm upset because it's not their fault my cable isn't working and they must get a lot of angry people calling them (like my mom) to deal with so I don't want to add to that. It must be a very stressful job having to deal with all these angry people. So I play nice and we get along and everything is happy. I've even made one customer service guy laugh- well... it was more of a chuckle. Anyways, I went out to lunch with my mom came back and tried the tv and it worked! I have this theory that the cable only works in the afternoon. Anyways, I was able to watch like 4 or 5 more episodes. I was really sad at the end of the marathon though because Law&Order came on and it was just criminal intent so I flipped around and found an episode of cold case to watch (I know, good night for tv right?). The episode was about a guy from the marines who was killed (I think the marines are way cool btw) and I when I found this out I actually said out loud "This is a job for NCIS!" and half expected to see Gibbs & Co. show up (they didn't). Anyways, it was a really good episode of cold case, it was one of the ones where it's got that romantic love story background to it that ends up being really sad... but before it gets sad you see how absolutely wonderful it was and how perfect they were together and stuff (very mushy I know). Seriously though, it was one of those cold case love stories where you just go 'awww' and then at the end when you see the old woman all alone without the love of her life you go 'whyyyy????!!' Anyways, very good tv watching tonight. 

So, I'm thinking about going to Ankara sometime soon (I really want my mom to try their pizza), I'd really like to get a calzone cuz the one AP got looked really good... and maybe some fro-yo too. mmmm.... 

In the beginning of this week I went camping with some friends. It was really fun even though it rained and we ended up leaving a day early. And that we (well I sat in the middle of the canoe so not really me) had to canoe in the rain for about an hour and a half and it was freezing cold (I only had flip flops on - should have brought the rain boots). And when we got to the checkpoint where the canoe people were suppose to pick us up they wouldn't pick up the phone (apparently the guy had gone to lunch), so we had to stand in the cold rain for an hour wet until he finally came and got us. We even tried hitchhiking at one point, but failed.... yeah, but once we got back to our cars we stopped at a mexican restaurant and ate lunch/dinner (delicious!). But yeah, the trip was still very much fun and very much worth it. 

Okay, talking about camping reminds me of my newest obsession, s'mores! They are so absolutely delicious and wonderful. I still marvel at whoever thought up this amazing creation (note to self, wiki that shit), the perfect combination of marshmallow, chocolate and tasty graham cracker... mmmm.... i've started making them almost every night at home over the oven... my mom doesn't like this- she says I can't be eating all this sugar... and she can tell when I make it too cuz it makes the whole house smell all sugary and delicious. Just talking about them makes me happy... I could go on and on about how wonderful they are (just ask my mom). It's kind of funny because most people gain weight at school while I gain weight at home... is this happening to anyone else? I've decided to go to the gym tomorrow (lets see if that works out).

Okay it's almost midnight so I've got to get to bed so I can wake up and go to work *sigh*

Miss everyone I haven't seen in awhile (determine for yourself if that's you),

Blasian out.


p.s. I so want to become an NCIS agent... seriously considering that as a career option...

strawberry shortcake, gossip girl, mosquitos and cars

Dear Life, 
I am enjoying summer very much. I haven't really done all that much so far- perhaps that's the reason I'm enjoying myself so much, you know, getting to do absolutely nothing. Yesterday I checked out a condo my mom is thinking about buying and I really loved it, but my mom isn't sure if she wants to get it because it doesn't come with a parking space. Earlier today I make strawberry shortcake. I was going to make a blueberry pie or some fancy cake from martha stewart's website but I didn't have all of the ingredients I needed and was too lazy to drive to the market place (yes, I call it a market place), so I made strawberry shortcake and used milk instead of heavy cream (whatever that is). I hope that was an okay substitute- it came out okay. Then I watched some of the office (season 2). I was planning on going into Boston to go shopping with my mom but then realized right before I got on the highway that Gossip Girl was --
Oh, My, God. Right as I was typing that I realized (again) that Gossip Girl was on at 8 and it was 8:05pm! Sorry, minor freak out, now that I have the tv turned on everything is okay. Wow, that really would have sucked if I had forgotten to watch Gossip Girl just because I was typing a blog post. Anyways, there was a minor incident on the drive back from the highway. As I was driving, I noticed there was a mosquito in the corner of my car. I just had a very minor freak out. My mom did not enjoy it. When we got back to the house and she had killed it she looked at me and said very seriously "I'm not sure if you should drive again Maxine," she was very very upset. I thought it was pretty funny though. That totally would have been good material for my reality tv show (if I had one), you know, with me swerving down the street and trying to swat at the mosquito with one hand while driving with the other hand... haha... anyways, hopefully she'll forget about the whole matter and I'll be driving tomorrow. 
Also, I've been looking around for stables that give horseback riding lessons so that I can prep for the equestrian team try-outs. Also I signed up for the COM intro class for summer 2. So that's the update on my life- I'm very proud of myself for actually signing up for the COM class and looking for riding lessons, finally I'm organizing my life. 

Anyways, better give my full attention to Gossip Girl, 
The Organized Maxine

finished, sunglasses, NCIS, the middle ages and summer!

I have officially finished freshman year. Had my last final today (mandarin), and it just feels so good to be done. Now I can just relax until Saturday when I leave. I've found something to occupy my time until then too. I'm going to call kiss108 every hour to try and win tickets to kiss concert. So far it's a lot harder than I thought it would be... Anyways, for the next few days I'm going to try to send stuff home- there's a lot of stuff. Ever since my double turned into a single I've completely taken over the room, it's a little ridiculous. Also, just noticed I have about 10 library books sitting in my room that I still need to return- not looking forward to carrying those all to the library... You know what's going to be really weird? Seeing my room empty. Oh and I have to remember to clear out my fridge and unplug it and melt all the ice in the freezer. 
Oh, so I came up with this new genius idea. Whenever I use my laptop right before bed and I have the lights turned off, my computer screen is always really bright even though I turn the brightness down all the way. So, a few nights ago I looked over on my desk and saw my sunglasses sitting there and wondered... I put them on and suddenly my computer screen was nice and dim. So from now on I will wear my sunglasses when I'm using my computer late at night. This is for two reasons. 1.) the screen is really bright and 2.) because the light from the screen can keep you up long cuz your body doesn't register it's time to sleep or something... so, it has not only one, but two positives. 
So, I just turned on the TV to see what's on and it looks like there is an NCIS marathon on that I'll watch until the office. I'm starting to get tired so I don't think I'm going to write much more- also because I finished writing my post but lost internet connection and lost half of the post so now I've got to write another one- and I hate doing that because the second one is never as good as the first. I'll quickly sum up what I had written though... 
I talked about how I'm reading a book that is set around the Middle Ages or something so people in the book talk a little differently and have weird phrases. So whenever I read this book before I go to bed, everybody in my dreams talk in this old speak and I even think in it. It's really weird, for example instead of calling the bathroom a well bathroom, it'll be called a privy in my dream. It's weird... also because it's like street folk talk (lower class and all) so it's even weirder... but yeah, like I said, I think in it too. But I finished the book so that didn't happen last night. 
Okay whatever, I'm not going to spend more time trying to write this post again, I'll just try to remember to save my posts in the future so they don't get lost like it did today. Just want to mention that I'll be updating my  blog hopefully more frequently during the summer so look out for new posts!

Enjoy your summers everyone, and i'll miss all you BU people, and I look forward to seeing all you Lex people. 

Bye, 
Maxine

Life with out H, stupid squirrels, the godfather and terrier hockey oh my!

So, I'll write a quick post before I go to bed tonight (this one is for you H)... 

First off I will tell you all about my embarrassing I think it was Friday. I woke up, got ready for class like any other Monday, Wednesday, Friday, except this Friday, H had gone home so I didn't have anybody to walk with to class (which was very sad). I started to worry because I was afraid I was going to be late and it can take awhile to take the elevator to the 5th floor because so many people try to take it at the same time. When I got to the elevator in CAS, nobody was there! Amazing! This has never happened before- it was kind of weird. I got in the elevator, and again, nobody! Two times amazing! Got to the classroom and there are only about 15 kids in it- weird again right? So I figure maybe it's an optional day or something and I just didn't get the memo? But oh wait, that is so not my teacher up there talking... So I look at my clock and realize I'M AN HOUR EARLY TO CLASS. I woke up and HOUR early, got ready, and went to class. See last time this happened, H told me before I ended up going to class- this was not the case. 

Anyways, most people have already heard that story, thought I'd tell it again. 

Okay, so a little more repeating. Here's the crazy thought I had while having insomnia a few days ago, as written on an index card, "It's a natural instinct to freeze up when we sense danger. We see squirrels do it all the time and think to ourselves 'stupid squirrel, I can still see you...'". So there it is for all your laughing pleasure- me making absolutely no sense. 

So this weekend I watched the Godfather for the very first time and I plan to add it to my favorite movie list. Hopefully I will get to watch the Godfather II this upcoming weekend. Also this weekend I hope to go to a par-tay. Still trying to find a good one though... So I'm excited about that. Also this weekend there is class registration- not looking forward to that since I know I'm not getting the classes I want and that I'll be getting crappy times (unlike this year when my earliest class is at 12). This weekend is also the Boston Marathon and I'll be volunteering for it with a bunch of very cool people. 

Today was the hockey parade. The hockey team rode down comm ave on duck boats and then there was a rally as AP called it at Marsh Plaza. It was very official like with the mayor showing up and giving a speech. A little over done perhaps? Then there was confetti that shot out- which was pretty cool. There was a ton of that stuff too... I don't really understand why it was red, white and BLUE though. Maybe to be patriotic? Cuz our colors are just red and white. Scarlet red might I add... anyways, it was really cool because the hockey team did AMAZING this year. We won every single tournament and title we possible could have- how many teams do you know that do that? So overall, very good hockey year- arguably one of the best.

Okay, I know I had a bunch of other stuff to write about and I know everything I wrote about isn't new info for a bunch of people, but the sleeping meds are beginning to kick in and soon the stuff I write will start to sound loopy and all that JAZZ. 

So night all,
Sleepy Girl aka SG


P.S. GO TERRIERS!!!!!

19 years of life, free movie theatre popcorn, fro-yo, meet lily and butts

Hello All, 

So yesterday was my b-day, I turned 19. At first I was not having that great of a day because I try not to get too excited about my b-day because it always seems to end in disappointment. But by the end of the night I was embracing my 19th year of life. The night started off early with a dinner with my mom and the cousins at Stephanie's on Newbury (only the bestest restaurant ever). Then I went out to the dorms with some of the coolest people at BU- we saw Sunshine Cleaning, which was absolutely wonderful! It made me happy. At one point, it made me sad, but then it made me happy again (twice as happy!) so everything was okay. My birthday really got better after Teresa used my coupon (buy any size drink get a small popcorn FREE!) and gave me the popcorn. Note that the coupon was EXPIRED! I had been wanting to use this coupon for awhile, it got to the point where I was having reoccurring dreams about going to the movies to use it. I was double excited about the popcorn because a. it was movie theatre popcorn and b. because it was FREE. So that's why I was double excited. But as we were walking into the theatre I realized I had forgotten my glasses (thanks a lot AP)!!!! Normally this would have made me very upset and put a damper on the movie, but as I held my free movie theatre popcorn in my hands, I was incapable of feeling something other than happiness. So it was no biggie. Then when me and Teresa sat down with everybody else I realized my seat was at a funky angle and I found this very unpleasant and wanted to move to a closer seat. Luckily Teresa was willing to move with me and after trying the seat in the third or fourth row- but we felt that was a little too close and moved back to one of those comfy intimate two seater (you know, the ones where a handicap person can roll right into the spot next to it?) well, let me tell you, that was the best seat in the house! It was an amazingly new discovery. Also, when I had just gotten to the movies, I called Katherine because we've got a little tradition going on- you know my birthday chatroom I have every year that only Katherine showed up to last year? And yes, I'm still bitter about that- and since I couldn't be on the internet this year because I was en route to the movies, I decided to communicate with Katherine via cellular phone. It worked out very nicely, I turned 19 while riding the escalator up. It was very nice. I enjoyed it lots. Thank you Katherine lots. 
Okay so after the movies, we went for some FRO-YO (aka frozen yogurt) from Ankara- I got raspberry and white chocolate. Then we walked back to the dorms and I danced down Bay State. I think I had a sugar high by this point... anyways, back at the dorms, I couldn't finish my fro-yo, it was very very big, like huge, so LILY finished it for me which was good because then I didn't have to feel bad about not finishing it and being a food waster. Meet Lily- she lives down the hall in 701. She is very insightful, and makes me laugh, oh, and she's got some pretty sick dance moves. She's from all the way on the west coast and I'm so very happy we became friends here at BU and will be so very sad when she leaves me- I will also be very sad when H leaves me... why must everybody leave me?? why arn't I good enough?!?! WHYYYY??!?! Anyways, then we all danced around and made a lot of noise... I can't really remember much else about last night... it's all kind of fuzzy... 
Right now Lily is showing H how to do an INTENSE but work out. "Fuck, it does hurt a little bit..." says H... "ow, it hurts the other one- the other cheek.." to which Lily replies, "yeah it does..." and H says "ow... butt... feel like I need to stretch it out..." 

Peace to life, 
Maxine

back by 'popular' demand, first times, scented candles, lots of thinking and other pointless rambles

Devoted Blobe Readers, 

I have decided to write a new post due to popular demand. And my popular demand I mean 2 people. But still, that's pretty significant (at least I think so). Since I don't have a particularly embarrassing or funny story to tell, or a weird random thought to share, I'll start off with summarizing my spring break and go from there... with me you never know where my rambles will take you... anyways...

So the first thing I did when I got back home was change into this sexy black dress and hit the clubs. I partied hard, you should have been there.  Then I smoked weed for the very first time (oh wait no, that was somebody else.... the weed part that is). Oh and no I didn't go clubbing. But, Naomi, Preeya and even Cynthia a bit got me to seriously consider going to a.... party. Wow, I sound so lame... (now I can never post my blog site on facebook in case non friends read this and are like 'wow, good thing I stayed away from her in high school' or 'I'll make sure to avoid her in the dorms' etc). Anyways, what was I talking about? Oh yeah, party.. there's actually more to this plan, but I don't really feel like discussing details here... What else did I do this weekend.... I went to the movies with Tara and saw Confessions of a Shopaholic- it was better than I thought it was going to be. I just got back from Liz's house and we baked a cake to celebrate our birthdays (Fun Fact: Me and Liz (Liz and I?) were born on the exact same day, at the exact same hospital).

Okay, my life is boring... see? This is what happens when I don't write posts out of inspiration. 

Hold on, my mom wants me to smell a candle... 

Wow, smells good. Now she's telling me how she leaves it on her nightstand without lighting it because it smells nice and is relaxing. She thinks I should take it to BU with me... but I just realized we're not allowed to have candles in the dorms... 

Okay, let me try to think of something mildly interesting.... thinking... thinking... ... ... ugh, my mom wants me to go to bed- and it's only 12:36! and she wants me to call her cell when I turn off my light to go to bed... oh, speaking of my mother, I'm planning on writing a BOOK. A book on my family. My crazy crazy family.. it's going to be awesome... I already have a title and everything. I can't share the title with you guys though because it's top secret, but ask me about it and if I really like you I might tell you... 

Back to thinking... I'll talk about NY until I think of something else... I went to NYC during spring break and saw an opera and the lion king musical thingy. I also saw Adwoa, Teresa and Livy and we had lunch *does hand motion*. It was very sophisticated. I ordered a pepperoni pizza that was way too big for one person to eat and had to take leftovers to the hotel. My mom tried the pizza and thought it was too salty. I didn't notice if it was salty or not. 

Okay, since I can't seem to think of anything thrilling to talk about I'll just end with a list of things that I'll miss when I'm back at school and then a list of things I miss while I'm at home: 

What I'll miss when I'm back at school:
- showers with no flip flops (as H always points out)
- being extra lazy (including doing nothing all day and having no hw)
- seeing high school friends
- not having insomnia (it's weird, I haven't had it since I've been home)
- lexington take out
- driving w/ the radio

What I miss while I'm at home:
- cable (this means no law&order, NCIS, CSI, criminal minds, cold case, etc reruns)
- BU friends b/c suddenly it's so lonely (ex: can't just go down the hall to bother someone)
- waffles
- yeah this list is really short, mainly because when I get back to school I have a midterm and a paper due.. bleh


That's all I'm going to say, sorry if this post was a little dull, hopefully the next one will be wonderful and colorful, because I like color, it's good... I'm especially thinking reds and yellows, maybe with a splash of green? maybe just a drop of green... 

I'll be seeing BU people tomorrow!

P.S. BU IS #1 FOR HOCKEY EAST (NU can suck it! BC too) (if you didn't know that already) WHICH MEANS WE'RE GOING TO NCAA TOURNAMENT !!!!!!! GO TERRIERS!!!
