so my roommate has been gone for about 30 hours now. i didn’t even get to say goodbye to her, because i left yesterday morning at about 6:30am and didn’t return until around 6pm. it’s times like right now i wish i had an MSU boyfriend because we could’ve been DOIN IT every night this week, haha. but we don’t always get what we want.
journalism exam was mega easy. i 4.0′d the class for sure. french wasn’t too bad either, although the passe composé vs. imparfait vs. plus-que parfait section was a NIGHTMARE. but i had a 94% going into the exam so i am not too worried. bio, oh goodness. i finally said screw it and didn’t study for the exam at ALL. not one bit. terri said, “kristen, you are either my hero, or my anti-hero.” well, i was glad i didn’t study … because as i was taking the final, i was thinking, dude, i wouldn’t have known these answers even if i HAD studied. so at least i didn’t waste my time.
i took my books back to ned’s last night (well, all but my theatre book since my exam is tomorrow). i got about $115 back for 9 books. not shabby at all. so i headed over to splash of color to treat myself. i had my septum piercing stretched and i now have a beautiful 12G 3/8″ circular barbell in it. and it doesn’t make the inside of my nose burn like my cheap green circular. i’d hope not, because this high quality piece cost me $38, bringing my total expenditure at splash of color for the year to a grand total of $250. yikes.
so i’ve been under the needle (both piercing AND tattoo) and now i think it’s time to go under the punch. i think i am going to let the newish piercing guy at splash dermal punch my inner conch at 10G. that would be sweet as hell. YAY OR NAY?
i applied for two summer jobs today. both involve digital publishing. cross your fingers for me.
this room is so sad. there are no rugs, no shelves, no plants, no purple futon cover, no curtains, no rugs, no windowseat … only my still-full bulletin board and chili pepper lights. i keep thinking,
the last time the futon was there…
or
man, i remember when the beds were still bunked at the very beginning of the year…
and it makes me feel funny. like time passes so quickly now. even this week! it’s already tuesday night. i only have three more nights here. tonight will be spent studying, tomorrow night at drew & eric’s, and thursday kelly has invited me to “dance party in the quad”, which sounds like it would be a good time. maybe i can pre-drink before with brian & joe??? i don’t know how i am ever going to see everyone i want to see before it’s time to go home.

i’m feeling kinda down now.
oh, and i will now post my letter from eric.
kristen byers,
WHAT HAPPENED….IN YOUR HAND? well, we got to hang out with you at the end, but we were able to condense a lot of fun retardedness into that period of time. i got to see you completely belligerent the same night that nathaniel helped you worship the porcelain god, we got to witness all that is derek being REALLY drunk (along with nathaniel being substantially belligerent), got to have great times at a beach party that was seriously bigger than anything else i’d ever seen, and then to top it all off you got to sleep on my futon as i took care of a nearly dead from alcohol poisoning roommate. but whatever, you got my bus pass out of the action. wait, you still have my bus pass, i’m gonna get that shit back from you cuz…well i don’t really need it anymore, but…it’s the principle of the matter.
don’t forget you’re still in charge of passing out by the pool,
eric
[[p.s. i did return his bus pass.]]

Kristen, a dermal punch sounds so painful. What if you just got another tattoo??
a dermal punch would be mega cool, but can you say OUCH!? sounds awful. anyway, the cinco de mayo dance party in the quad is going to KICK ASS, so i suggest you attend. time does fly so quickly. it seems like the older you get the faster time passes. i think the reason is because as you grow older you have more fun, and we all know that time flies when you’re having fun! anyway, i hope to see you on thursday night!
yeah, Cinco de Mayo will be a blast….It’s gonna be like $5 for margaritas/beer….so feel free to drop by! i think i might even buy a sombrero! 2 nights left! Oh my God!
DERMAL PUNCH?!?!?!?!
Are you fucking insane? Just have it pierced at ten, not dermal punched!
dude, my cartilage is tough as shit. shove a ten gauge needle through that? NO WAY. a dermal punch would heal soooooo much more nicely. and quickly.
what time are these festivities commencing?
Have fun with that PERMANENT hole in your ear. I think shoving a hypodermic needle through your ear would be a whole hell of a lot easier that a BIG FUCKING METAL STRAW.
oh come on, it’ll be fun!!!
i say go with the punch. the needle would probably hurt quite a bit more.
