Music - Winding Road, by Bonnie Somerville

You know what gives me a private giggle? When people say they know how to use computers, then turn around and show how obviously wrong they are. My roomie says she knows how to use computers, and uses it quite a bit for her schoolwork. She claims that the NYU internet hookup gave her computer a virus. She said, and I quote, "My computer was fine until I hooked it up to the NYU network. It must be the cable, it gave my computer a virus." I just smiled and said "Oh, really?" but inside I was DYING. I heard her talking on the phone to one of her friends and she said, "I don't know why, but my computer display is suddenly so TINY. I mean, it used to fill up the whole screen and now it's so small. Like, the computer said it was safe mode, but why does MSN messenger pop up every time I sign on?" I must have wasted 3 whole brain cells trying to figure out what she said. Hilarious.

It's been crazy busy these past few days. I'm so exhausted right now, and I'm hoping that classes tomorrow will be easy on me.

• Saturday - I had work all day. After work I went to Penn Station to pick up Will, who had come into the city to visit. We ended up at a party hosted by the NYU chapter of his frat.
• Sunday - Work all day again. I felt bad making Will wait for me while I was at work, but it can't be helped. Losing the money for that day would've been much worse. After work I took him around to do stuff, saw Hero, walked around Chinatown, had bubble tea, watched him play DDR, played chess in Washington Square Park, etc. Before we knew it, it was kinda late and he had missed the last train back to Rutgers. Under normal circumstances I would've invited him over to my place, he'd sleep on my bed and I on the chair, and we'd have no problems. However, my roomie is a prude and won't let guys sleep over in our place. She doesn't even want them staying in the chair in the kitchen overnight. So the only solution (I didn't have the money to arrange a hotel for him) was to walk around the city. The. Whole. Night.
• Monday - So you can imagine I was pooped when I sent Will to Penn station on Monday morning. After sending him off, I got about 2 hours of sleep, then woke up for class. Classes all day, and I spent all evening catching up on the work that I put off during the weekend. And finally, some sleep, thank goodness.
• Tuesday - Woke up at 6 to go to class. Of course, classes all day. After classes, went home and prepared to go to New Brunswick. Arrived in the evening, met some new people, ate sushi, did NO homework T.T
• Wednesday - By my own laziness, I woke up late and didn't make the train to go back to New York. I went straight from Penn Station to Chelsea Piers, but I was still 40 minutes late. Good thing they don't care that much. After work, I came home and started homework. And now, writing this up.

It's not so much that the activities are exhausting, but that the scheduling is mad tight. Everything is all packed together and I feel like I'm always running from one activity to the next. I'm fuckin terrified of what'll happen to me when Livingston Mock Trial starts, and when NYU Mock Trial starts. Oh man.

At least my less-than-brilliant roomie gave me a good laugh.

Music - Such Great Heights, by Postal Service

Stolen from the ever adorable Lauren, this quizzy thingy is not like the rest. According to her interpretation, you make 10 vague statements about 10 people and let them figure it out. I've picked people that I think read my blog, and there's no significance to the order that they're listed. If somebody can guess a good number of them, there's definitely some amazing prize in store. Maybe even some MEAT. So? Here goes!

1. You are the last person I talked to online. Please, don't give out my address, I wanna live until I get the JEW stuff.
2. You ought to have let me know about your secret-but-not-secret girlfriend earlier! Oh, and you need a haircut.
3. I think you're such a little boy. It's quite unbecoming to have such a CHILD inside your big body. But still, call me whenever your mom and brother are not using the phone line.
4. I dunno if you read my blog regularly, but I know you've read it at least once. I remember that you said, "Time to update myself on Nully's blog!" You are an indiscriminate chocolate fiend, and you never, ever call me Cherry. Always Nully.
5. You invited me to your house once to watch Star Wars with you. You made popcorn and your fluffy white puppy watched with us. It was a lovely memory.
6. You are my dear lover-girl! Your stories are the best, and your cute girlish charms are simply irresistible.
7. You are a workaholic. Even though you talk about slacking off and getting complacent, I know you won't let yourself relax much. But hey, if you end up going to school near me like I hope you will, then I can take you to play chess at Washington Square all the time.
8. You like to read my blog, then pretend that you didn't read it. The last time that I asked you "How did you know that?" you said "God told me." You are never at a loss for funny things to say and never short of tight pants.
9. You are goofy but know how to have fun. You are the only person I know who still had never eaten a strawberry up until college. We had some good times, like that New Year's Eve and that time at Hillside. Too bad that when you came into the city last year, I was busy.
10. I'm not sure if you still read my blog, but I still read yours. We don't talk anymore and you've probably changed since I last knew you. You were always the person who laughed the loudest and was friends with all the girls. You were so fond of your charming doggy, but not so fond of your brother.

Leave your comments if you know who you are! And now, off to watch the Law & Order Labor Day marathon. You KNOW that just makes my day.
