I thought I had a room.

But I just got an email saying that the girl actually wants to have an upperclassman room with her, perhaps somone who was abroad this semester.

Damn it.

So, I'm planning to spend the next few weeks on the floor of my friend Amanda's room.

I just can't take living with someone who has a total disregard for my feelings and no respect for herself or me anymore.

I should start writing my paper now, but I thought that y'all should know what's going down.

[It turns out, Jackie was sympathetic to my plight, and let me stay in her room after all. Yay!]

I love Canadians. It's official.

When can we move there?

I want public service announcements like this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP7_CsMiWW4&mode=related&search=

Let's GO!

GGGGGGRRRRRRAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!


Okay, last night I was in a rather sickeningly good mood, because I'd spent 10 hours talking, both electronically and in person, with one of the nicest guys I've ever met. I was basking in the fact that none of our conversation had been awkward, and that we have a lot in common. I was bouncing around in my little shell of joy, and getting ready for bed, when my roommate comes and informs me that she has invited a young gentleman that she had just met to spend the night in our room.

Not really cool, I'm thinking, but I say okay, because otherwise he has nowhere else to go. It wasn't hi fault that my neighbor hadn't planned ahead enough so that all of his bajillion guests this weekend could have sleeping space. I was frustrated that she would invite him without consulting me, but whatever, that was another issue.

The young man was named Zach, and Shoshi assures me that he would stay in her bed, WITH HER, but there would be no "hanky-panky," and that I shouldn't worry. This is at 2:30 in the morning.

They then come into my room, and proceed to talk with my buddy Arreon until 4:00 am about Les Mis. They sang their favorite songs. They gushed. I HATE that show, especially at 4am.
I also didn't feel comfortable listening to my sleep mix with a stranger in the room, so it took me a while to go to sleep, but once I fell asleep, I was out like a light. Thank god...

So, this morning, I asked "So, how was your night?"

Shoshi looks at me in terror. "Oh god, were you awake?"

I say "... No... I sleep very soundly..."

She looks relieved. "Oh good, then we weren't too noisy... I didn't want to wake you up, but I really didn't want to go to the woods."

Realization hits me like a frozen frying pan. EWWWWWWWWWWWwwwwww....

I had put in our roommate contract, and Shoshi had agreed, that there would be no sex taking place when both roommates are in the room. It was bad enough when I was in the room and saw her **edit for graphic content** at the beginning of the semester, but this was beyond the pale. I'm kicking her out of the room. She has broken our contract.

At least they couldn't have been having too good a time, if they didn't wake me up. That's my one consolation...

This was my mood before finding out:
Fabrizio:
Vuoi fare una passeggiata con me?

Clara:
Cosa?

Fabrizio:
Do you want to make... to walking, to walking with me... on the road... in a circle?

Clara:
Si.

Fabrizio:
Bene!

Come with me
Walk with me
Waling in my city
Una passeggiata
You and I
See the faces
From the daytime
Talking in the evening
See the churches shining
See the sky

Now is
I am
Happiness
Never
I am
Unhappiness
Now is I am happiness
With you

Walk with me in the place that I know
La passeggiata

Now is
I am
Happiness
Never
I am
Unhappiness
Now is I am happiness
With you

Walk with me in the place that I know
La passeggiata

Ah...
Now is I am happiness with you
Walk with me in the place that I live from a child
The place that I know
La passeggiata

This is my mood now:

Pop, Six, Squish, Uh uh, Cicero, Lipschitz

She had it coming
She had it coming
She only had herself to blame
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

Pop, Six, Squish, Uh uh, Cicero, Lipschitz.

So, yeah. Talked to my RA about Shoshi and room changes and she was very sympathetic. I was telling people on the hall, and though many were surprised that things weren't going well, my friend Liza said "Well, Margaret, you did kind of live in the hall. I'm not surprised to hear there was a problem." Everyone is offering to help me move boxes.
I should go to bed...More tomorrow.

I just got called back for 4 out of the 7 student-directed one acts, so I have to go to them all, see what I get, and then I have to pick one. hmmm...

Weekend

Shoshi was in NY for Rosh Hoshonna, so Saturday I hung out in the hallway with Max and another guy on our hall named Mike, and we put a sofa together. Max's first sofa (refured to as the "Grunka-lunka") got busted when Shoshi body-slammed it, so he went to Ikea and got a new one. As first he wouldn't let me help, but they were having a hard time lining up the pre-drilled holes, so I stepped in. The old, broken Grunka-lunka now is living in the hall, where it leans against the wall and people sit on it. I think it will have to move, but in the meantime it makes a very nice "park bench."
That evening I watched "The Dead Poet's Society," and found it thouroughly depressing.
Sunday, Shoshi barged in to the room with her parents while I was still in bed, but I was too sick to be really annoyed, espeacially when they took Shoshi, Arreon, Jess, and me out to lunch at a Chinese place near campus. Very nice food. At around 2, I went ice skating at an indoor rink with Lindsay, Max, and some of their sophmore friends. Really fun, and we think it might turn into a semi-weekly thing (could my skates be brought to me? Both kinds?)
I had a meeting at 5 with a group of students in my Math class: we're doing a project on the Electoral College. The nice thing about it is that My part of the project is all research about spesific elections when the Electoral College changed the outcome of the election. (You guys should look up the election of 1876. CRaZy. It made me So MAD!!!)
Had dinner, then I fixed my English paper so I can hand it in with a smile tomorrow. I'm rather proud of it.
Lurve you all,
~M

Hole in me nose!
It doesn't hurt, which is very nice, as I though it would be on a par with my ear, which hurts like the dickens whenever I bonk it.

Luckily, none of my piercings have gotten infected. Poor Shoshi, her ears don't look too good. I think it has to do with the fact that I actually Get Ready For Bed, so cleaning stuff is just a part of the routine, whereas she "takes a nap, and then she'll do her work," and then she doesn't wake up. ah well...

Well gosh. I've started a blog. yawzah.
Now I'm gonna make it all purdy.
