2:58PM - HOME

just got back from PA last night and it was so great to be home

I got a wedding dress, steph and ava decided on bridesmaid dresses that we all liked, met with 4 caterers, and lots of other wedding stuff.
In addition, got to buy lots of clothes for my outdated winter wardrobe (see junior year, high school) and christmas presents.
Got to see steph, toria, (and their men and new dogs) beth, and the fam.

ps we had a lovely chocolate detective man at our house saturday night, ava went to delta (mistake #1) and had her phone stolen (mistake #2). trooper cooley was awesome!

becky, cant wait till you come!!!

otherwise, good luck on finals everybody, we are almost done

2:14AM - nyc public transit

for those of you who aren't aware...the new york city public transportation association has updated its rules and regulations concerning behavior of night time travelers. It is now acceptable to:
1) vomit anywhere on the train, especially in a crowded car, try to eat beforehand so it looks extra yummy
2) pee in your pants while waiting for the staten island ferry
3) note: the previous rule for walking in on a stranger in a public bathroom used to be: apologize profusely and close the door. this has been changed to: state that the person being walked in on is a ''cunt bag'' and slam the door in their face, thus you may literally add insult to injury.

thank you for viewing the updated transportation rules, have a nice day and thank you for riding the staten island ferry



I love friday nights

4:50PM - PENIS

ok so the trip home was freakin awesome.
it was like 24/7 becky liscious, also throw in a little steph and toria to make it even more fun, and throw in the babcocks playing beer pong on thanksgiving, to give it a complete fun time. although i did absolutely no homework, that's definately a good thing.
I am sad i'm not going home for christmas, but who passes up a month of sex and sleep to go live in the office with mom? haha. anyways i had fun with all you ladies, and i can't wait to see you all again. (court i'm sorry we miss each other yet AGAIN)

i'm going to romania from dec 13 until jan 17 (petrus was denied a tourist visa because he's a student, so here i go).

THE IMPALA DIED! i just spent half an hour crying with my sister about it...there's been a death in the family. rest in peace dear beloved impala, you were greatly loved

Current mood: depressed

Current music: Iris - Claudio Baglione

11:32PM - my bio book is boring

i guess i'm going to romania for christmas...petrus got denied a tourist visa to come here (because he's a student...its kinda ironic that only old people are allowed to travel, but those are the least likely to actually travel). so i'll be spending another christmas out of the country, i hope none of my grandparents die that'll be really really depressing. They'll be fine.
also i'm going to dc this weekend, anti-occupation in iraq. I've been to that march like for the past 3 years, it is always the one i can attend for some reason.
toria's coming up next weekend, and steph sometime after that. visitors rock. just not when its my mom :-). becky come down! ummm yeah that's about all i have to say except
i saved a mouse in lab yesterday. it was like ET! except he didn't go free he'll be dissected another day, but we ran out of time and he'll get cut open next week. such is a bio major's life i guess.
at baskin robbins they have dollar scoop tuesday nights 6-10pm. mint chocolate chip rocks

Current mood: bored

Current music: moody blues

2:11PM - fig newtons

soooo i'm back from romania and back in new york (steph the italians in milan where i changed airports stole my cell and i tried to call you blah blah sorry i'll see you soon). my classes are HARD! i'm back at work in times square, back to routine.
romania was AWESOME and i dont know how to put pictures on lj but they're very nice. roses + candles = romance.
i missed new york so much while i was gone, and now that i'm back on the island it just dosn't compare to brooklyn, it sucks taking the boat. I'll never live in the suburbs, city or farm, no middle. anyways i dont have much else to say...i'll miss beth in africa, come visit anybody if you want!
dale has a house in philly...do i smell animal house babcock style?
i have coke, and i want to trade it for pot...they should have a store for that

Current mood: but not that fat, bubble man
