Another ten days slip by

Well, let's see.

I got a parking ticket from BSU. The usual $10 for parking in the meters overnight. Oops. I had forgotten it there after dropping off the groceries for the big Tiki party on Monday night.

Which, in fact, went fantastically. We had the usual dorks (guys mostly) that decided talking about safer sex and alcohol was the damndest, funniest thing in the world. All sorts of inappropriateness - however, I was a bitch and MADE them get the Human Bingo card filled out before they could get ANY snacks or punch. MUHAHAH the power. Most cheated, I'm sure. But, still- tough for them whent hey reached out for a cup and I asked to see their sticker. Heheh fun.

The condoms were also being grabbed at with no discretion. I put up a sign for them to take only 1 or 2 at max so all could get some, but of course, I forgot to place someone there to watch over it and they started disappearing quite quickly by the handfulls. /sigh. I can't remember evberything!

Aspen came over to help and she was the stamper and listened in on the safer sex talks - which mostly went well. Interesting questions.

Uhmmm.. today we finally got Assassins out to the residents. The sock tossing is about to start!

I have also started crocheting a scarf for D - he was hoping to find one in the store for ski'ing but I told him I could make one exectly how he wanted it - so we took a long time to choose his yarn and I went through a few stitches, but he liked my usual because of the small stitch holes and the thickness. I would say I am about 1/4 of the way done.

here's my to do:

• Signs for HC Meeting
• Meeting thursday at 3pm for Haunted House
• Signs for volunteers
• Look for sign-ups for my GRE test
• Look up the colleges that I would like to apply to
• work on my abstract for my thesis
• any German homework due next Monday
• Begin paper thesis for Tolkien class - Silmarillion

Aww, a compliment!

I had a feeling this guy was hitting on me a week or two ago. He kept coming to talk to me and complimented me on my smile and how it was nice to see someone so happy. I thought he was just being nice - not thinking that he was trying to tell me something.

I started talking to him today about life as a Graduate - he is a foreign exchange student working on his masters as well and hadn't met any others because most of us are so busy with our classes, jobs, and lives. Well, he started asking me if he could see me when I wasn't busy and I had to tell him right out I was taken, and he smiled and explained to me that D was a lucky man and that he wanted me to know that he liked seeing my face and that he had liked it the moment he walked in and first saw me. Awwww. That's quite an ego boost for me.

Now, I just want to go home and snuggle up with D and watch reruns of Stargate.

What Your Sleeping Position Says

You are calm and rational. You are also giving and kind - a great friend. You are easy going and trusting. However, you are too sensible to fall for mind games.

What Does Your Sleeping Position Say About You?

Already tired

I've only been working one hour so far and I'm already seeing spots and feeling like a nap.

The basketball players just came walking in. They were being loud as usual as they walked past me and into the elevator. Seriously - what makes them SO weak as to not be able to walk up or down ONE flight of stairs? They sure seem healthy enough. Even I (who am not in the best of shape) go up and down those stairs. I feel silly when I use the elevator like this.

Uh... one of them just snuck out. Hehehe, made a showing and getting away. Funny. They seem to believe they own everything - a bit too arrogant for me. And one day, one of them kept saying "holla Back Girl" to me and of course, I ignored them as usual - hehe having been an RA, it gives you the right choices to make when you feel threatened or annoyed by people - you know how to react. Well, I finally looked up the meaning and here it is:

• NOUN: A girl that is willing to be treated like a doormat or booty call. She is a girl that will allow guys to do whatever they want with her and will just wait for them to 'holla back' at them.
• VERB: a member of a cheerleading squad who repeats – hollers back - words that the squad leader shouts out to them.
• Gwen Stefani uses the term brilliantly in her song "Hollaback Girl", both as a simile and a metaphor. She’s letting the guys know that she ain’t a booty call and that she’s not gonna be sitting around waiting for them to “holla back”. She’s “been around the track a few times” so it’s not gonna happen again. She uses the cheerleading terminology as a metaphor, she’s a “squad” leader not a follower.

Well, I guess it was good that I am not one of those girls that constantly get called "shorty" by them. These girls walk by and start giggling as soon as one gets even a teensy bit of attention. Gah, I'd rather have my tongue pierced than spend one hour near them. There are a few exceptions, however, but few needs to be looked at in earnest.

Ah cripes, foot and leg just fell asleep on my left. /sigh
