On some border...

I went to visit my good friend Christine for this New Year's Eve, so the night before we got to rock the suburbs outside Boston accompanied by Charlie. Since the suburbs can be kind of lame, we ended up going out to dinner and then watching a bunch of episodes of Pete and Pete, followed by some Tenacious D and finally Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. So yeah, like I said, completely rockin night (oh, and we looked up Danny Tamberelli (little Pete) and the kids who were on some episode of Guts on facebook. No way are you living that down people)
Anyway, when we went out we were condemned to a 50 to 60 minute wait...(suburbs!) and forced to wander across the large road to the "mall," so called I suppose because of its 4 or so stores. But it did have a sporting goods store, and that made for some good times. We not only had a great photo op, but we got to hit each other with kickboxing equipment and buy "wacky carpets" (sheets of slippery plastic with no handles pour la neige, le sable, ou l'herbe!--meaning they think you can ride these things on snow, sand, or grass, instead of what I think, which is that you are gonna fuckin kill yourself if you try to ride them at all. But hey, what do you expect for 3.99)

Wait for it....

Oh Charlie, no....I have to live with her!

That's exactly what I picture when I hear the words, "Monster Balls"

But finally, our mall adventure was over, and we prepared for a new transformative journey, the "On the Border" mexican restaurant. I said that it reminded me of "Casa Bonita," the mexican restaurant that Cartman fakes Butters' kidnapping in order to enjoy in a classic South Park. Oh, and Christine's dad gave us $25 just for drinks, so I ordered this, and was happy

Christine, with a look of pure ecstasy as she takes in the wonder that is, chain mexican restaurant large margarita.

Charlie...not so much with the happy. Maybe it's because of his PUNY margarita. Or maybe its because he's already starting to regret following Christine's pizza-buttering dad's advice and ordering the "Ranchiladas"

Happy Holidays! (That's Right, Fuck you Bill O'Reilly)

Christine: goodnight and may christ's blessing shine on you from high
Me: ha thanks...
Christine: for to-morrow is the day of His wondrous birth
Me: right....
Christine: the star of bethlehem is shining its holy light over the blessed manger

If You Ever Want To See Your Magazine Again....


We tried to ransom Christine's "Glamour" but she didn't check her phone to get the picture message we sent until she was home.
We later decided we'd still rather just burn it for the fun of it.

Alex left her glasses lying around. Mistake...

Yeah...

Amos played by making his partner do all the drinking...

Beirut at the Seegers'


Oh, NOW what biaaaatch??? That's what she's saying

I'm not sure what that yellow thing is that Jayme's waving so fast you can't see it....

Worship the sugar and caffeine Christine! Bow to its glory!!!! (by the way, munchkins and donuts TOTALLY taste the exact same. Fuck you guys)

We got iced lattes. I guess cause we wanted caffeine. You can't really tell from this picture, but Christine's is like 8 times the size of mine. Hello ulcers....

I thought it was weird that Rachel wanted a picture with the icicle, until it was pointed out to me that its probably like the second one she's ever seen. Damn you for being from Hawaii, Rachel. Damn you.

Pomelo! We saw this at the supermarket and were so fascinated by its ridiculous size and total unfamiliarity that we bought it without any knowledge of what it was.

Delicious. Actually, not really. They weren't as juicy as a grapefruit, and Kenny didn't even eat his half.

You Won't Get This

The point is, Kenny and I have the stupidest arguments. I, however, am always right.

"Red states show the core of the Midwest, states shown as pink may or may not be included in the Midwest, and thus their inclusion or exclusion varies from source to source" Note: Pennsylvania is completely white

My voice recital. It was completely terrifying

Mr. Skidmore


So this weekend we were totally "those seniors" that still went to the campus event, but, of course, brought beer. In a paper bag no less.

It was perfect precisely because it was the sketchiest thing ever

The Asian guy played the violin. I'm hoping it was a joke

Victorian Streetwalk

Yeah, I know it sounds like old-fashioned prostitution, but it's actually this Christmas thing Saratoga does downtown. I feel like it was more fun in past years, but there were still quite a few highlights this time.

Its not exactly the tree in Rockafeller Center, but it's still nice, right?

We have no idea why there was a newspaper mascot, but of course Charlie wanted a picture with it

Yes. These people are performing in a bank.

I'm not sure what these little girls were getting ready for, but I'm sure it was gonna be cute. And exploitative

Not llamas?

Reindeer! There were also Alpacas, which are apparently different animals from llamas? I had no idea about this and still don't fully believe it...

Carolers. Unfortunately you can't see their nikes in this picture

This thing was really scary. I don't care what Charlie says

I'm an elf : )

My apologies for having no life

I'm sorry for being remiss in posting for anyone who may read this (meaning me in a couple months). It seems that....nothing is going on in my life. Thanksgiving came and went, it was boring, as usual. We did have a dinner at the house, that was nice for about 10 minutes until we all realized we were stuffed to the point of begging for death and still had about 6 pounds of ham and 20 pounds of other assorted fat-laden fare covering our table. Anyway, when I'm home for break I pretty much just sit around and/or be on aim. So I figured I'd just keep a few of the more interesting aim memories alive for later generations. I.e. me in a couple months.

On math and a cappella:
fairylights315: why do breaks suck so hard
fairylights315: even my email sucks
fairylights315: i got announcements for an a capella show and a math lecture
fairylights315: that could hardly blow more
im ln 719: mathcapella
im ln 719
: that would be sweet
im ln 719:
singing about math... way funny
im ln 719:
well
im ln 719:
actually not true
im ln 719:
it'd probably be lame

On pants and walmart:
chudgasm: ed and i are bored and probably going to walmart
chudgasm: sadly this means i must put on outdoor pants.
fairylights315: have you seen what people wear at walmart?

On life after graduation:
leeens: i want to work at starbucks
leeens: they didnt' accept me when i was in high school
leeens: maybe now that i have that degree....

On laptops and women:
im ln 719: laptops are le suck
im ln 7 19: they're like women
im ln 719: if i were a man
fairylights315
: because they break?
im ln 719: because i need it and i want it but goddd it's soooooo annoyinggggg
im ln 719:
me, personally
im ln 719:
i kick ass
im ln 719: but women in general...
im ln 719: LE SUCK

Holy crap

"Oh my God Lauren. We're graduating....

I feel like we need to have a cathartic, Greek tragedy-esque session of falling to our knees and screaming to the heavens..."

Weekend o' Brain Reformatting

It was a good weekend. Christine's friend John from her Japan semester visited, and they were sober for all of an hour. That hour was spent mainly in two person dance party form. They then spent the next eight or so hours on our blue couch, giggling, eating Esperantos, and watching "The Neverending Story"

Verdict from the rest of the house:
John coming totally ruled

Yay! everything's funny when you're stoned

If you look at these two pictures quickly in sucession it's like they're animated.... that's cause these guys never left the couch all day

White russian with a curvy straw. Allll right.

Jesse's Birthday

There was a medieval party at 91 Adams for Jesse's birthday. Craziness ensued.

Verdict:
91 Adams + Party = Unmitigated Regret
(not so much on my part this time, thank god)

As you can see, the Medieval themed party was really more....Simon and his housemates dressing up and getting so drunk that everyone could laugh at them all night

Hijacking a perfectly good picture

I was getting all into my man sandwich but then simon got distracted. And i dont know whats going on with jesse in this picture

And Rich did this. No clue why. there was probably an explanation

Simon really started to go downhill....

Christine's gonna get medieval on your ass

Paul asked Simon to make him a grilled cheese. It ended in a pot being thrown at Charlie's junk

It seems to be a moment of truth...but trust me, it's not

I don't know why Charlie decided to wear this coat. He just came out and it was on, and it was a photo.

Yeah. That's my underwear. Thanks drunk Simon

Christine looks really scared, but Paul was getting Simon back. I was laying on the floor recovering at first but then I joined in and gave him a hefty heave

Be Warned As Registration Nears.....

As you probably know, I'm graduating and don't get to register for Spring semester...but those of you who do should know something. Nancy Jo, the class study of voice teacher, is ScAry. I mean it. Scary. Today alone:
She said: "Nothing like demoralizing students"
And whacked me on the head with her sheet music when I asked "If there's no key signature (by which I meant nothing written where the key signature usually is) does that mean it's in C?"

Scary

My friends are such good people (by which i mean Christine)

Christine: "I see so many people on this campus and I just want to give them plastic surgery"

Kenny, discussing how he overheard people talking about their trust funds and how tasteless that was:
I have a trust fund
Christine:
Kenny's rich! Let's bang

Halloween Party at Russell's

Halloween Party Quotes:

....OR we could use FIREWORKS
-Amos, determining the best way to dispose of the rotten pumpkin

Are those......condoms? Cause that would be gross
-Kenny, speculating on the origins of Russell's costume

Rufio is HOT! Let's hump
-Christine, appreciating Charlie's costume

Guess what I had for dinner tonight?
What?
I don't remember, but it filled me up!
-Paul, establishing an excuse to flash me his package stuffed into a thong

MOTHERFUCKERS!!! That's how you know I'm drunk, cause I just yelled fucke.....hellllo police....
-Drunk Charlie leaving Russell's and yelling just as the cops pulled up to report a noise complaint

WHO is Christine making out with??
-Kenny, noticing Christine and the Elvis guy

This Halloween I decided to go as Carmen Sandiego. There were lots of great costumes at the party though, and the cast of characters included:

Kenny, as "The Man in the Big Yellow Hat" ...I know the hat doesn't look yellow, that's cause he only spray painted the top of it

Amos, as "Inspector Gadget"--or gay flasher
