all eyes
yesterday we went to the great mall of the great plains in olathe… i bought new jeans at aeropostale for 12.49 as well as a new pair of pj pants. the pajamas say “whale of a good time” and have whales all over them and are therefore awesome. i love them. its such a beautiful inside joke that i had to buy them right away. and luckily the girl working there couldn’t ring up anything right and rang them up as 9.99 with 50% off instead of 14.99 with 50% off. so $5 for something that’s so funny is a pretty good deal. when you get right down to it. stephanie and lacey and i were the only ones that went and we had a blast hanging out and driving there. even if lacey always seems to drive to far and we never make it there on the first attempt without turning around. for that matter, she almost missed the exit coming home. good thing steph was paying attention. cos i sure as hell wasn’t.
we didn’t get back until around 5 or so and then lacey and i hung out in her dorm with steph for a little while then we ate and came back here until the “Daze of WU” which was a fun chance at 7 to tye-dye tshirts. my hands are still so fucking stained from all of the dye. i guess that’s alright though. its fun to be blue every once in a while.
lacey’s suitemate kristen is really hella cool and fun to hang out with so she was with us for dinner and the daze.. then josh came over to the dorms and svd stopped in for a little while. it was a nice time. after that we went out because i wanted/want a mirror and some other things (its crazy how much you don’t realize that you’ll need when you’re moving out! ) but we ended up just driving around after i bought silverware and josh/lacey bought some other things for themselves. so josh played this song by this one band.. sanctus real maybe? idk. they’re god-rock. and it was called “Say Goodbye” and we all cried. but mostly just me. because im going to miss josh so incredibly much and i just don’t know how i’ll handle it without him. i know i’m making new friends and hanging out with tons of people and sometimes i don’t feel like i have enough time for the people that im really good friends with from high school and stuff but i’ll always wish josh were around.
i also kind of feel like i’m spending too much time away from my dorm and not enough time getting to know people on my floor and in the hall and the building. svd says that it’ll get better once classes start and i’m talking to people in there more often and i assume she must be right. plus, its only been like a day and i totally don’t have a roommate (still). dammit.
i did break out of the topeka loop and hang out with daniel/marcus from about 11 pm till about 4 am last night. yikes. it was fun. we had a lot of conversation spanning from politics to dating to learning about and from girls to sex. it was nice. daniel is such a nice kid. he’s kinda funny sometimes… by way of he just tries to hard to be a nice guy… and he’s just so genuinely nice that i wish he could just see that he is actually nice and doesnt need to try to impress anyone. i was incredibly impressed the first time i met him and that was well before he had read any books about dating. lol.
we all broke out (and steph came too!) to go to the Sex, Slides, and Suriving the College Years. Some went for the free condoms. Some went for the gross slides. I went because I wanted to bitch about how they don’t talk about protected lesbian sex. lol. i’ll raise it as an issue at a later date. because honestly: its such an unknown ground and i don’t think much of anyone thinks about anything along the lines of safe sex for girls. and really i think there are a few more precautions and ideas for safe sex for guys that everyone could benefit from. the room was terribly funny as the ratio of girls to guys was like 30:daniel. lol. and there were a couple of the people who head up the whole event. it was pretty informative really though. when you get right down to it.
i need to let my batter callibrate for a while.. not to mention i need to go down to financial aid and argue my bill. motherfuckers. getting it wrong? what!
