“I’m from Austin, Texas.”

I’m so glad most of my presentations are done. Now all I have to do is every other fucking group project. ugh. At least I have 3 more weeks to procrastinate.

Thursday’s Dell presentation was just awful. I told my group members that I was the last person that should be trusted with speaking about the most important subject matter, but somehow I got stuck with it and totally fucked up. I am just an aboslute train wreck when it comes to public speaking. Oh well. I hate school anyway.

Halloween was a lot of fun this year. We went to Hollywood for the first time and it was crazy. The traffic was so bad it took us over 2 hours to get to the ‘haunted’ Geisha House. I think it was worth it though. I’m glad we were there for the exchange students’ first Halloween experience. Alex as a frenchman was hilarious. “Everything is in the baguette!” What is even funnier is his accent as he tried to pretend to be American. Or his accent when he tried to say ‘disturbia.’ I randomly saw my coworkers at a pizza place across the street. They were so pretty, but not trashy. Jime was still the best sailor of the night. I looked disgusting (and cute) as a cavewoman with dreads laced with twigs and leaves. I almost didn’t go out because I was upset earlier, but I’m so glad I paid in advance haha.

Last night I went with Jime to her cousin’s birthday. We were feeling anti-social, so we played with puppy, who is HUGE now, and watched A Walk to Remember which always makes me cry. Her family must have thought there was something wrong with me because I was fucking bawling. I suck at life.

Jime and I decided we need to take more inconspicous videos of our lives because they’re hilarious. I also want to make like a video/picture movie set to music for all of my friends when we graduate…I can’t forget to do this!

Oh, and I’ve started listening to Christmas songs again. love it.

slow it down.

The bus ride home was extremely crowded today. The driver had to keep pulling up to stops, hoping people would exit, then have to tell everyone outside they would have to wait for the next bus. When I finally made it to my stop (which I almost missed because no one would let me off…) I heard all this yelling. I looked towards the intersection and there was a crazy woman standing in front of the bus, not letting it pass. She was upset because she thought the bus was going to leave without her (she was probably right) and it was already incredibly late (fuck LA traffic). She literally stood with one hand on her hip and the other out in front of her, palm faced towards the bus in the universal stop sign. Even though the driver promised to let her on, she still wasn’t convinced and made him follow her across the street when the light turned green again. WTF Los Angeles?

School is driving me crazy. Too many presentations, too little time, and of course, no one even cares anymore. We’re seniors. Come on.

I bought the second book in the Twilight saga, but still haven’t read it. I wrapped it up in the bag so I can’t see it and be tempted to read it before the week is over.

Wednesday we went out to the Standard again. I hardly drank but still managed to get sick and throw up. I was hungover the next day and skipped class. Again. I need to stop going out on weeknights, but where’s the fun in that?

Friday was the first Halloween party. The boys downstairs had a party, so we all dressed up and went for a bit. I was a policewoman, Jime a sailor, Lindsay was Carmen San Diego, and Claire was Sarah Palin. A very diverse collection of costumes, right? We left that party because it was too crowded and went off in search of another party. We heard TKE’s Halloween party was that night, so Jime and I walked all the way to the row, only to find out they were at capacity. Ugh. ZBT was still open, so we joined the pajama party in Halloween apparel. The party was pretty lame. Saw some people I knew. Found a shoe. Put it on. Threw it away. Met some g’s. Made fun of sorority girls getting dry humped on the wall. Took a lot of pictures. Drank a lot and wasn’t hungover. Crazy.

Saturday was an adventure. I finally went to the vegan place, Pure Luck, off Vermont and Melrose. Amazing. The grilled tofu and pesto sandwich was one of the best things I’ve eaten all semester. We also went to Target to find a movie to watch slash buy useless stuff. Some random asian walked by me, then scared me half to death by abruptly asking, “Are you part asian?” “Yes.” “What kind?” “Half Japanese.” “You’re fucking adorable!” Ugh. I was not fucking adorable that day. I was broke down and wearing glasses. Creeper.

Jime and I stayed in that night and watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s. I adore it. I can’t believe I’ve never seen it before. It makes me want to go to New York. Or anywhere. Or have a day where I do things I’ve never done before. Or change my name and adopt another persona. Maybe I can do that after I graduate. hmm…

Random dream from a few nights ago: I was turned into a vampire and the other vampires convinced me to get a tattoo. When I looked in the mirror to see what they drew, I saw a sheep with a best buy tag on my fucking neck. I was so fucking upset when I woke up because I thought it really happened. Thank god it was just a dream. I think it’s a sign NOT to get a tattoo.

oh. and he called the other night to tell me not to go out with anyone because it will make him mad. he wants me to wait for him in case things don’t work out with her. ya.
