I’m bored and broke. What to do? Hmm… sounds like posting time!
Woke up at 5:30 on Saturday because Kinko’s opens at 6, and I was going to get ready for my day and then go over there to print out my project. Peggy S wasn’t done with hers, though, despite the fact that she had stayed up until 5 AM working on it and passed out unwillingly. She was supposed to take Ian R to the airport, too, but I made her take a nap before Thuong T’s graduation, and took him myself, instead.
Got back and made sure everyone in my car was going to be ready, then Diana Pai came over, and we picked up Amber W and Peggy S and headed to campus. The ceremony was… eh. Speakers could have been better. But we can’t all get Wear Sunscreen. Thanks again to Kitty K for the ticket! Congrats to Jeremy J, Linh N, Keegan K, Thuong T, Jenny L, Bao N, Alice W… I’m sure I’m forgetting a bunch of folks. It was the first graduation I had actually gone to this year, and it made me sad to see so many friends leaving. Especially folks I knew from high school and the dorms. Oh well. Next year. Or maybe the year after…
After the obligatory picture taking for days outside, went to Thuong T’s graduation lunch at Davis Noodle City. We seriously took over the place… I think APhiO had every seat in the house. The food, though… I think I could have made it better myself. And that’s saying a lot. But hey, I tried a new place in town, and now I know. After that, headed over to Chaparral for Alice W’s BBQ. I was pretty full, so only had a slice of cheesecake. And then a slice of the raspberry chocolate mousse cake that Jen L, TJ Y, and Aywon N got for Thuong T. Played ball in the street with Mike O for a bit, but it was windy. And I hit a car. (The balls are foam, so nothing happened, though.)
Was kinda sleepy, so I went home and took a nap. Talked online for days after that. Wrote a couple of posts in between distracting Peggy S from finishing her project. She mocked my non-existant love life that I mentioned in my bitter post. And made random racist comments -
“My back hurts. I wasn’t sitting right, I guess.”
- Peggy S.
“Aw… you need a back brace or something.”
- Me.
“Ew, no! That’s what my dad uses. And the Mexicans that work at Home Depot.”
- Peggy S.
“Why you gotta be racist? Everyone who works at Home Depot has a weight belt.”
- Me.
“And the Mexicans have it more!”
- Peggy S.
I still don’t get what she means by that. That girl… :shakes head:
Anyways, passed out around 3:30.
