It’s been a long week from work and the weekend isn’t bad. We play poker at Scott’s and I split with Bolanos in the end. There’s also lots of gin drinking and smoking.
For the next day, we go to Alon’s and there’s more drinking done until some late night Burger King.
I want to move back today, Sunday, so that I have a full day in the apartment to myself. However, that’s not happening so I have to figure it out for tomorrow. I really do have lots of stuff to move, but I did most of the packing already.

It’s a long day because I have three classes. 9:30-10:45, but then break until my 12:30. Then a 1:30-2:45. I then go shopping and make some balsamic chicken to work me for the week. The classes so far are alright except fuckin’ mandatory Spanish, which is so gonna be a bitch.

STORY TIME: Sept/Oct, 2006
I wanted to write this story for how epic and crazy it is. It’s Freshman year and I had just found out that Atron lives a few floors above me in my dorm. Although I’ve met him before, but I haven’t gone out with him yet so tonight introduces that. Bolanos and I meet him at the Union where Bolanos and Atron have a lot of tequila in Coke.
We then take the cab out to Apes, which is a frat house. Well not really a frat house because the school does not recognize them, but it’s a three-story mansion that is all partytime. It’s a cool place despite being a bit grimy. I just love how it’s such a place that is so stereotypical, like what you’d see on TV or films. We get there and Atron walks in knowing so many people. Bolanos and I are behind him. We slowly realize that he doesn’t know any of these people, but he’s just introducing himself, having small talk, and just walking away. It’s a really weird dynamic. He even makes up lies like where he’s from and what year he is, living closer to the stranger or being older than he is.
After a while, we decide to go to Bolanos’ cousin’s frat house. By now, Atron’s darn drunk and tells the cab driver about how the cops walked on him and a girl in his bed. Apparently, his shady roommate deals weed or something and the cops had to deal with it. It’s a really dumb story, but he’s so drunk that he tells it anyway. Michael Weiss also comes with us to the frat.
When we get there, there’s a lot of drinking going on. I’m really drunk at one point, but not like a few others. Bolanos and Atron go with some of the frat people to “downtown” or the bar crawl. It’s a whiles away walking. Weiss and I somehow end up staying. However, we get locked out. Weiss also randomly starts throwing up outside. He’s not wearing a belt for some reason, so his pants are falling down slowly. We find a few people that were at the party and they need to go back too. I call a bunch of cabs, but the frat house is outside of downtown so they don’t want to help us out.
Instead, we have to walk almost a mile to downtown. Two guys are side by side of Weiss and one holds his pants up. How awkward. We eventually get back.
I see a few of those guys that helped him around in campus. There’s like an awkward exchange of nods. Atron also knocks on my door on Tuesday, which is days away from Saturday. He says he still has alcohol poisoning from that night. Drama queen.
January 22, 2008
Bolanos decides to come in because he’s going back to Binghamton on Saturday. It’s a Thursday and Josh and Bolanos come to the apartment after we hit the large warehouse liquor store and grab two liter bottles of vodka for $6.99 each. We start pre-gaming there early. Eventually, CNF joins. Then Evan and Jonah get here. And then Stefan. We hang for a while and then they get food while Bolanos and I wait for them.
By then, I’m darn drunks at we get out by 10:00ish. We walk to a bar on Avenue B. People start sporting out and only CNF, Stefan, Bolanos, and I are around and we get a pitcher of Yuengling Black and Tan. Then CNF and Stefan decide to get going for some reason. Bolanos and I end up going to Crif Dogs.
We walk to go the “secret” bar in Crif Dogs, PDT (Please Don’t Tell). However, it’s getting towards 2:00 and the guy working there said it’s closing. It’s a Thursday night, meh. There isn’t much to go to because Bolanos needs to catch the 3:19. It was supposed to be a great bar crawl night, but I guess people left early and we didn’t sport out early enough. We also needed to plan it a lot better.
January 23, 2008
I go with Evan at 8:30ish to Five Guys. It’s a decent burger, but I’m about getting the amazing toppings. I get grilled mushrooms, grilled onions, mayo, steak sauce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered a bacon burger, but I don’t realize that the bacon isn’t there. Well actually, I forget it’s supposed to be a bacon burger. It’s really hard to forget that the bacon is missing.
We go back to our respective places and get ready for the night. We don’t get sporting out until 11:00ish. We get to Coral and there’s a so-so sized gathering at Boris’ and Karthik’s. I sit around there having some beers and stuff. They’re playing pong and stuff and I watch around sitting and stuff. I end up meeting Evan’s friend Shani, who he’s speaking to all night. For some reason, I’m asked if I’m gay. Oh c’mon, this is now the second time that I’ve been asked. I don’t know why this has happened.
Anyway, people end up leaving to go to Still and Evan and I stop there for a few minutes. I grab a beer and then we end up going back.

Break Coming to An End
January 13, 2009
I come into the city on Friday because Corinne driving her sis’ bf down to NYC. I stay in the city for the weekend. Dinner and Fat Cat on Friday. Dim sum, midtown, Hard Rock, and comedy show on Saturday. She gives me a ride back to GN on Sunday.

End of School, Part of Break
December 19, 2008
It’s been a long week of two finals and a paper.
As for a Stickam update. Tanya’s been gone for the semester and says she’s probably not getting back on no more. I’ve been speaking to Elin more. Law School Hannah and I still keep in touch through Facebook. Jema has gotten rid of her account. Athena randomly went on, but I don’t know if she’ll be on anymore. Cali Stephi’s been around.
December 25, 2008
So back home. One night we went to Astoria. Another night we went to CNF’s place. Tha’ts the same day I opened by gift from Nikki. It was 4 little vodka shots, .75L of rum, candy, inside joke of Mondo’s and gum inside joke. I rarely get gifts and it’s exciting when I do. It was so cool.
Last night, we sat around at Spamps’. I find out that I’m doing Christmas cooking, which turned out amazing. The pineapple honey glazed ham was soo moist. I usually hate ham for being so salty, but I loved this. Then there’s a baked vegetable rice pilaf. It’s a bit dry, I should’ve covered it. The mashed sweet potato with toast marshmallow is simple and delicious. The lemon zest green beans are a bit sour.
December 28, 2008
Another Tork shindig. I’m at the mall so I have to walk there myself. Before I go, I have a few shots. I get there and people are taking shots. Fuck em, they’re pussying around with salt and limes. I pour myself a shot, down it fast.
I end up taking 3+ shots of Jose throughout the night. The rest of it is loaded with beer, Blue Moon, BB Pennant, and Sam Adams. Loads of people are there, Josh, Bolanos, Kenny, Spamps, Tork’s bro, Matt, Rachel his girlfriend, Caroline, Tork, Jonah, CNF, Stefan. Trebach makes a showing with some random people. At the end of the party, Jenn makes a drop by and we haven’t seen her in forever.
I stay pretty safe and I don’t have so much that I’m shitfaced. I end up walking back with Caroline and Spamps at 2:30. A really fun night.
December 31, 2008
This New Years sets a change in pace for things. It’s not at Hasan’s or Scott’s. Instead, Tork is opening up his place again. It just feels like a shift from the homogeny that once was our nostalgic New Years.
Tork is supplying beer, so Bolanos and I go to the liquor store near Spamps’. I front almost $50 for Seagram’s, Svedka, and some soda/tonic. Miah ends up backing out because Lauren doesn’t want to come. Kenny is sick. Spamps ends up driving so I have a ride there and get there by 9:20.
I work on G&Ts very quickly. While I thought that I was the only one bringing liquor and there wasn’t going to be as much beer, I was expecting to be compensated for the liquor. Instead, they don’t end up getting finished and no one really gets me back. Meh, it’s not a big deal.
Within the hour, I think I’m about six drinks deep. I think it’s also the first time I see the Evan and Sam duo. How cute.
Lets list some people: Bolanos, me, Josh, Spamps, CNF (who leaves before 12:00 for Bayside and Candice’s sister…), Matt, Rachel, Erica Kaplan, Doug, Chrissy, TA, Jenn (shows up lateish), Tork, lil Tork, Ben Simon, Mike Jones (from basketball).
Funny story, Bolanos brings up that Mike Jones from basketball is there. We walk to the other room to tell TA. We all have a laugh about it. Ben Simon walks in and says that him and Mike Jones can hear us chatting about it, despite our whispers.
There’s weird stuff with Josh and Rosie (or The Beak) going upstairs and doing whatever. Past midnight, apparently Bolanos is really drunk and goes upstairs after Josh is done. I don’t know whatever happened.
Jenn says that she wants to go to Jasper’s. Spamps gives us two a ride there. By the time I arrive, I’m really shitfaced. Spamps ends up leaving. It’s probably very awkward around the Asians or just people that I don’t really know, but I’m drunk, so who cares. TA ends up dropping off Bolanos. For some reason, I end up drinking more which isn’t good. I end up breaking a bottle by dropping it. Bad idea and I cut myself trying to clean it. Then they bring McDonalds and I chomp a McChicken and cheeseburger. For some reason, I’m so drunk that I pocket one of the burgers.
Jenn’s dad ends up giving Bolanos and I a ride back. I actually tell him to pass my house for some reason, how awkward. I’m really tired/drunk by the time I get back. (Bolanos later tells me that I was back at 6:30ish. We left Tork’s at like 1:30ish. I don’t remember being at Jasper’s so long. Bolanos said I passed out in a chair at one point. I don’t remember that….)
January 1, 2009
What a horrible day. I wake up at 6:00 with a ridiculous hangover and I’m also sick. It was cold and I didn’t bother suiting myself and the combo is baaadd. I brought a highlighter that night to mark my hand for drinks. Turns out that I had like 19 drinks. That’s quite a record for me, who usually goes like 8 drinks for a night and I’m good.
January 5, 2009
I start work again at the doctor’s office that I worked before. I wish I had contacted her earlier, but she didn’t want to hire me last summer, so I wasn’t sure about this winter. She says she wants me to work full time and it’s a really tiring day. Spamps has left for LA.
Stickam: Emma is back on these days and speaking to her a lot. Mariela from Germany another addition to the crew. Lots of issues with Nikki being shady and missing, still have to figure that out. Corinne should be coming to NYC this weekend, bomb!
