I went to Ricardo's house yesterday at the ripe hour 5:30 am to spend the day with him while my dad was at work, while we were all in the car going to lunch, and Ricardo's mom was on the phone, and I heard her say something to the per...[Read Full Post] Thu, 24 Dec 2009 19:48:02 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/680944 I haven't been on a computer for a whole week, but a lot has been happening and it's been FUN. I got through my final and my two papers without too much sleep deprivation.. well, that's a lie, there WAS a lot of sleep deprivation. But I survived it. On Wednesday, to celebrate the completion of the quarter's work, there was a Storyt...[Read Full Post] Thu, 17 Dec 2009 17:05:05 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/680239 Sunday and Monday, I was isolated from the world cranking out my ten page paper. I turned it in yesterday, 10 minutes before it was due, right after a printer failure (that ALWAYS happens), with enough time to see the AMAZING sunset on east field, with bright pink and orange clouds, and one large, wind-blown super cloud over the ocean, which you could t...[Read Full Post] Tue, 08 Dec 2009 18:34:17 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/679208 It would have been a perfect night, had not the drama unfolded. I took a long, hard nap today, and woke up when Toro arrived at my place - I hadn't expected him to come over. We waited a while then called Ricardo who happened to be in Kresge at the time, and we all walked over to the dining hall, where we spent the better part of two hours talking ...[Read Full Post] Sun, 06 Dec 2009 05:06:50 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/678871 I was in a very odd sort of funk tonight that led to strange moments, some of them boring and sleepy, others surreal and cold, and many more that were extremely silly. For much of the night last night, I was very excited, and almost couldn't fall asleep for excitement (much like Ricardo - he says he hasn't been sleeping well in excitement over h...[Read Full Post] Sat, 05 Dec 2009 07:19:35 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/678777 For me personally, as a sexual, and for many other sexuals I know, romance and sexual attraction are interwoven. I have to be sexually attracted to a person to want to be in a romantic situation/relationship with them. I know some asexuals are aromantic, but for those who DO desire romance, I find it interesting that it is separate from sexual attract...[Read Full Post] Fri, 04 Dec 2009 05:41:10 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/678647 Success! I knew Ricardo could do it. I only saw him for a few minutes today - he called up and asked to come over right as we were both leaving for class, so I only got to talk to him in the 30 minutes it took to travel to class. But I soon discovered why he was so eager to see me - he wanted to tell me his good news! He finally made a move with Kevi...[Read Full Post] Thu, 03 Dec 2009 03:30:59 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/678502 Yesterday, I battled with a spider - a huge wolf spider that I found in my room, right next to my pillow on my bed. It was FREAKY! It was about the size of my palm. I'll attach a picture for you. But anyways, it was fortunate that Imani had over a friend who was brave enough to take it outside because otherwise I'm sure I wouldn't have ha...[Read Full Post] Tue, 01 Dec 2009 06:03:00 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/678260 Ricardo called this morning after work - apparently he hadn't just been calling to say thanks last night, but he'd wanted to run an idea by me: he thought maybe that he could get a ride home with me and then stay the night at my house before going home to Pasadena the next day. That way he'd get to hang out with me and he wouldn't have t...[Read Full Post] Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:11:14 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677684 Awwwww.... I love Ricardo. He says the nicest things. He invited me over, and I spent a couple of hours with him tonight as a last goodbye before he got on the bus to go home for thanksgiving. We spent those hours talking and listening to his favorite trance songs. He told me some very personal things and about how he likes Kevin (the other Kevin I&#...[Read Full Post] Wed, 25 Nov 2009 05:22:23 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677563 I signed up for most of next quarter's classes the other day. I was going to sign up for Intro to Jazz Dance, but it was closed already, so I went with Modern II/III, the sequel to the class that I took with Ricardo last quarter. Ricardo is currently in this class, so I'll have to ask him what the instructor's like. From what he's told...[Read Full Post] Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:04:40 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677061 Tonight, after work, I was at home reading. I had decided to get in a few chapters before the pajama dance, thinking that Ricardo would probably call me before. However, an hour before the dance, I was surprised when a knock came at the door, and... there was Ricardo! He even brought his pajamas with him. Apparently, we're good enough friends now tha...[Read Full Post] Sat, 14 Nov 2009 05:10:11 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/676109 My weekend went fairly well. I slept in, and then Heather came over and we made cake. We decided to dye it purple, but didn't have enough red, so it ended up blue. The bottom layer was square and the top was round (those are the only shaped pans I had), and we decorated the top in the shape of a banana slug with yellow M&M's, almonds, and chocolate chips...[Read Full Post] Wed, 11 Nov 2009 22:47:43 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/675822 Yesterday was the last day of kayaking. I nearly missed out on it after looking out the window and being discouraged by the clouds, wanting to go back to sleep... but then I looked up the weather on the ocean, and it was actually a very nice day, 2-5 foot swells at a 12-second period, not much wind at all... very nice day. And it wasn't very cold out, either....[Read Full Post] Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:13:46 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/675140 Twas an excellent weekend. Indeed it was. In fact, life has been excellent in general lately. I haven't had a low in weeks, even when I was sleep deprived. And now the hard work is over and I get a break between papers and midterms, and it's very nice. This Halloween was a perfect one - it just happened to be close to a full moon, and the sky was c...[Read Full Post] Tue, 03 Nov 2009 03:33:57 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/674489 Today, my body aches and hair is stiff and laced with salt. But despite being in a steady state of pain, this has probably been the best Thursday of the quarter. 1) I got sufficient sleep. 2) I'm caught up with my work. 3) It's almost Friday, and therefore, almost time to relax, and almost time to have fun... and Halloween, of course! And 4)...[Read Full Post] Fri, 30 Oct 2009 03:16:22 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/673846 Today - today today today!!! I'm super hyper, super happy, and I can't seem to shut up, so brace yourself. This happiness stems from a simple full night of sleep (9 hours), and possibly from the fact that I no longer like anyone and thus, no longer have anything to worry about, and feel FREE!!! Free to be me! I don't have to love any...[Read Full Post] Fri, 23 Oct 2009 05:21:48 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672949 I've just been reading and reading and reading, and writing and writing and writing. I find it hard to believe that the day went by so fast. I would've thought that it would've gone slowly, since I woke up at 8am, but it seems to be on fast forward, and now night has already fallen. I woke up early today to write a 5-page essay that was du...[Read Full Post] Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:36:56 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672536 Today was a pretty nice day: the afternoon was beautiful. It was sunny, with large fluffy clouds floating overhead, and those clouds, so innocent-looking at first, actually started to drizzle water on my head as I was walking back from the gym today. At first, I thought maybe it had just been a bird dropping... I never would've expected those whisp...[Read Full Post] Tue, 20 Oct 2009 02:37:13 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672359 I do feel uncomfortable associating with Kevin, but not because of what happened last week with the mistake text. It's not the fact that he knows I think he's awkward that makes me uncomfortable, it's just... well... he is awkward, and I find it very awkward to be around him. I never know what to say because he doesn't say...[Read Full Post] Sun, 18 Oct 2009 05:25:07 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672239
