been a while, eh?
saturday was actually quite eventful. i enjoyed it! in the morn, nate and i went to go watch a pussy sport, otherwise known as "Polo." It was my first game of polo to watch, so i was a little bit sore afterwards and it really didn't feel all that good. they say it gets better the more you do it. i hope they're right. we missed the first quarter, watched the second, player with "horses" the third (and you know what i mean by 'horses' *wink wink*), and watched the last quarter, leaving 2 seconds early after we realized Yale was going to lose to UConn. Polo is quite beautiful to watch, but it is really golf on a horse with a bigger ball. you don't have to run--thats what the horses are for. they follow the balls for you. all you have to do is use the mallet to hit the ball towards a wall. yes. a wall. there's no goalie or moving object, just a wall that you have to hit. you could hit it from all the way down the field and have it barely touch the wall, and you would score. it's pretty lame.
but, i support nate and his decision to play.
anywhoo, we took a trip through the ghettos of new haven, which was SO lovely that we decided to hail a taxi. went to Bottega, a really expensive euro-trash boutique, and tried on clothes like I could afford it (i'm sure that he could've...). afterwards, took a trip back to OC (old campus), sat around, did fatty things like watch TV, until he had to go to the Phantom Planet concert, and Bookie and i went to go get dinner. and by "go get dinner" i mean that she went to Au Bon Pain, got soup in a bowl of bread, i stole a thing of Thai Peanut dressing, and we both went into the Saybrook dining hall, i got a salad and ate while she inhaled her soup bowl.
i didn't actually get ready for the screw until about 9:15 so i was a bit late to pick up my date, Lydia. i was really exhausted, not only from the day, but because LAST week, i had just gotten all ready for Casino night. most people, in fact, weren't all that hyped for the "007 Bond-Age Screw". so, lemme explain what the screw is:
Screw 101:
your roommate hooks you up with some person to go on a screw date. he, in essence, "screws" you with someone and you, in turn, get "screwed." getting "screwed", however, can be a good thing, like "Dammit. i got screwed!" or "woo hoo! i got screwed (as in laid)." since you aren't supposed to know your screw date, the people hooking you and your date up are supposed to make you do silly shit so that you can distinguish who your date is, e.g. "look for the guy who is naked and shouting 'I'm Gay!'" to "look for the girl dressed in a fencing suit fighting the wind." luckily, sportscenter just made me meet Li at the Branford swing.
so, we met up, i was all dressed up in my gray, bling blingin' Cariter suit!, hung out at some pregaming parties, went to the screw, danced to the good music, went to yorkside, went to her place and talked about chinese shit (how nostalgic!), and i went home, where i ended up talking to "Gangsta" Ollie about being black, since he's so black and all. anyways, it was a good screw and a good night. i'm glad that i went!
by the way, i received a prank phone call from someone who knew i was asian and that i went to Yale. he called me "oscar" and wanted to know where his 4,000 dollar dog was. i fucked around with him, and i was like "well, i raped the dog and put him to sleep, threw him in the oven and ate him b/c he was barking too much." and the guy got all pissy and we bitched at each other for about 10 minutes. good fun...good times. afterwards, i called back the number and looked it up on the white pages, to find that it was the Steak'N'Shake in Old Hickory in Nashville. pretty weird, eh? the person knew my name and everything. freaky. i bet it was some trashy dumbass--but what does it matter? its not like he fooled anyone.
the people in nashville weren't known for being the brightest crayons in the box (*cough cough* dane...*cough cough* tyler...). highschool was a bad dream. i can't wait until they're pumping my gas.
so anyway, i still haev some graphic design HW to do, and a movie "Seven," to watch at nine. let's hope i don't shit in my pants like i did last nite...wait, that didn't happen.
best scene of last nite: Stef's asian-invasion-slut-bag, yoonis, falling off of a wall because she was so plastered. "all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put yoonis together again." by the way--who the fuck names their kid "Yoonis." it sounds like a part of a reproductive organ.
