okay, it’s time for my real update of the weekend.
friday after work i went home. i was very upset that no one seemed to want to go to the mall but kc ended up going with me. i exchanged a pair of jeans that mom bought dad for their anniversary (in march!) and mom let me keep the money to marshall field’s so i bought a pair of … i don’t know what they are called. these black floaty capri things that are so loose they almost look like a skirt. someone help me out here. i also bought a pair of (nicer) black flip flops and two shirts.
thennnnnn matthew came over and we went to meijer’s up on hill road at 10:30pm. we bought candy, pop. makeup, toiletries, and other “necessities”. the nail polish in itself is a story for another time.
the entirety of saturday rocked. matt and i awoke early to head out to east lansing. first we ate breakfast at panera bread and hit up the ATMs in silver parkway. then i drove us to EL where we went to drew & eric’s (well, i guess it is drew & brandon’s house now .. but eric was there, and i’d say he still lives at 544 gunson in spirit). so many cool people. so much beer (PBR). so much strawberry hookah. so much food to grill. SO MUCH 180 PROOF STOLEN BRANDY. the stuff made me feel like i had strep throat. i played beer pong twice and lost horribly both times. a bunch of us walked over to the folk festival downtown. i used the bathroom in beaner’s and i have to admit that was the first time i’ve been in beaner’s. then i took a 3-hour nap on drew’s couch. when i awoke, everyone was much drunker. except me since i had just slept most of my buzz off. i was chillin’ with eric and derek on the couch while matt was running around informing everyone he had only had “two shots”. yeah, right. matt was so drunk he wasn’t hungry (how can you be drunk and not hungry???? i couldn’t talk the kid into walking up to grand river to get food!). so some nice boys from western walked to jimmy john’s with me. then mike called to ask how far it was to indy and informed me he would be home the following day (sunday). which made me realize that summer is … well, pretty much over.
when i got back to drew’s, matt was calling me to find out where i was even though i had told him where i was going. and then i went to QD and the same thing happened.
“kristen! where are you???”
“matt, i told you i am going to QD with some people.”
“……QD?”
“quality dairy?”
“but why???”
“because they want cigarettes.”
“oh. are you going home now though?”
“not yet, matt.”
good times.
oh, and i had my first sober cigarette. drew gave me a kamel red. don’t do it, kids. nastiness.
so sunday was slow & relaxing compared to saturday. i ate dinner with my family + my grandparents. kathy and i went to k-mart (she drove…isn’t that weird?!) and i vaccuumed out my car. then i packed up my car with college crap, listed a bunch of stuff on eBay, and stayed up entirely too late.
yesterday joe blocked me on AIM for saying “jigga-what”. i have since been forgiven, but i am now forbidden to use aforementioned phrase in joe’s presence. i don’t blame him; that was rather lame of me.
ashley is arriving this afternoon and debauchery of some sort is sure to be had. but first i’ve got to get through my second to last WRA 202 class. and tomorrow’s my french oral exam. yiiiiikes. WHY DO I STILL HAVE CLASS THIS WEEK?!
