schlepping around the keyboard

yah, so i thought maybe i could be cool and trendy and have a journal online too, like all the cool kids! oh baby got back. so tonight was fun, i spent about 4 or 5 hours working on my portfolio for english composition. yippy. every time i thought i was done, i remembered ONE MORE thing that had to be included. it was such a blast and a half...not so much. and meredith was working on it to. oh man, we even got in a fight. it was so dumb, i say we never have to do homework that makes you fight with your roommate. thats a good rule of thumb. i like my thumbs. theyre so lil and cutesy. awwww. pretty lil thummys. ok. hee hee. SHUT UP.

matt arnold said "no doi" to me today. i got excited, doi is such a cool word and its just been so freaking long. i told meredith and she got excited too. then she told me she used to say that word ALL the TIME. meredith musta been some sort of freak. i just cant handle that she used to say doi. its just not your typical meredith activity. its just not, people! get over it!

so at the carmin christmas party last night we found out who our secret sisters were, and mine was ashley-that-i-know-through-joe-the-boy! its just so cool and random! she gave me these sweet action fudge oreos, God bless her, and a picture frame that has butterflies under it and says "friends" on it in beads...its cute. so i have this really awesome and dear picture in it. there was this evening....some guy friends o' mine came over...the one pictured...well, we'll call him "Matt A." no--thats too obvious--"M. Arnold." this "M. Arnold" borrowed some feminine clothing from girls in my unit (HES BEEN IN MY SUITEMATES SKIRT) and adorned himself with it. the costume was completed by stuffing his spaghetti-strap tanktop (over a tshirt, of course, gotta be IWU appropriate) with some of my balled up socks. in this photograph, the area from his chestal...or do i mean breastal?...section to his wee waist are picture, and his hands are grabbing my beloved innocent roommate's hands and forcing her hands to touch his sockish breasts! ahhh! coz you know, thats what friends are for.

man i love iwu! at 11:30ish a ton o' hodson guys (i saw you nick the jew!) came barrelling into our lobby, dressed in boxers, tshirts, and hats and scarves, and belted out a few xmas tunes. iwu rocks like none other! see, at any other campus, it wouldnt be as many guys, they'd be in only underwear (no shirts, no hats n scarves) and they'd be drop dead drunk! so sad. here, theyre just weird. but fun!

so Jesus is so awesome. woohoo! yesterday in a mad-dash to buy Secret Sister xmas gifts, mere and i rushed over to the dollar tree (where yes, everything truly IS a dollar, not one of those gay dollar stores where stuff is anywhere from .50 to $10), and cruising down one aisle we spotted these sweet action cheap0 white plastic Jesus and Mother Mary night lights! i bought Jesus! he's holding a sheep (lost sheep...you know) but it looks like a big ol bunch of grapes. its the kind of night light where its a cheap plastic form that you can pull right off. and it has an on/off switch! yay! so i guess this will be our "This Can't Be Kosher" replacement in lieu of the death of the Gyrating Statue of Liberty. (note to reader: never let your friends duct-tape your Gyrating Statue of Liberty to your ceiling...it shall fall down and die).

well yeah, got class in a few hours, better get down to business and sleep or something.

word.
