:: Purposeful Death Overhead ::

Thank you paul for helping organize the astronomy night! Twas wonderful!
...for once there were wonderfully clear skies (along of course with below freezing temperatures.) Fun around around though. There was so much you could see....M37, the Orian Nebula(phenomenal!)Beetlegeuse (home of ford prefect!) It was quite gorgous and between star gazing there was much of the monopoly and hot chocolate/cider. Such a wonderfully geeky night.
At about 11:30 the group of bi-valves plus me and Ethan begin singing TMBG's "the sun is a mass of incandescent gas" at the top of our lungs...
Ended up at Paul's apt watching Harry potter :)
...and while i was driving back along the umcp campus

...i got mooned by a van of drunk college jocks.

how do you respond to something like that?
I was amused.

Friday was also filled with shopping. arg - I thought I like shoes. I got dragged across lakeforest mall several times by Jill (twas all in good fun) to go look at shoes. And boots. :D
...speaking of which i now how knee high black leather boots, i.e. my dream boots.

...yeah i sound like a ditzy blonde, i realize.

Having left the mall ( you don't believe i how ecstatic i was) i was dragged to safeway, where having found what she'd been searching for, Jill began exclaiming : "I have darth tater, I have darth tater!" I.e. she'd aquired the last Mr. potato head dressed as darth vador...

...what could I say to that?


P.s. The Risk game began last night...:D

...Ethan is going down.
...and Stefan will follow suit

...i plan to sweet and innocently take over the world:)

Happy thanksgiving everyone who reads my blog...to everyone else, i wish you a day of misery.
:p
...nah


im not bitter today. Nope. I'm actually quite happy, seeing as I pwn3d the html screwing up the blog. It looks quite decent now, which makes me joyously wanting to post.

Yipee! You, the reader have the glorious opportunity to hear me whine more often :)


Tuesday I dropped Ethan off at his Dad's in n. Va and ended up staying for quite an enlighting conversation. Props to european dinner schedules; from 7 pm to whenever the conversation ends.

Anyhoo, wednesday dropped in to RM to see a few folks. What awkwardness! Kimmy was ecstatic - the girl jumped on me as soon as i walked into the room. Saw Hendel and Maddie and Berger and a few others. I dunno - awkward hellos all around? I saw Correll the other day, which was awesome; might do something this weekend, and I haven't seen Gittel or Jill or Emily or Sharon or the people I actually LIKED at RM. Saw the teachers. The IB ladies were so glad to see me - they're so sweet. Saw Frezzo. I wanted to tell him everything - Opera, the works; " Ha, I don't have pitch problems, you're an idiot" In so many words... I feel strange realizing I'm beyond Frezzo now. He no longer decides whether I'm good or can't sing or going to be a madrigal. A few of the teachers were also sweet, but there were a few awkward moments. I realize now how apathetic they really were to me. I'm not the best student, truthfully. 'Twas very tense. Hmm.

Astronomy night is happening!
Tomorrow!

im emotionally confused.

:: Alina 11:23 PM

58 degrees and rain
perceptions change
but I am still the same

I am such a pig emotionally, I really am.
everything un-natural, everything because I want it to be so.

Arg...
I'm so vague when blogging, but I'm scared of posting out my true thoughts. There I said it.Maybe it has something with my education and upbringing and fear of becoming the "emo" child within me. If you're a good writer bitching becomes poetry, and when you're not it simply becomes pathetic.

Have you ever sat down and read an entire Livejournal or blog of someone you vaguely know?
If it's a good one you will find out everything. And its facinating, because people, though most having tendancies toward repetition and redundancy (as I often find myself) may possess a certain je-ne-sais-quoi ... that spark that illuminates the light to the careful yet casual observer.
Have as Livejournal ever changed your perspective about someone?
I just stayed up reading a journal for 2 hours. Just reading and marvelling. And I thought I was eloquent. Nope. The first few entries were intrusion; I was invading their thoughts. And now I no longer invade, and can only smile.

*smile*
