Start of Spring Break

March 12, 2009
It’s the last day of class. I have my Midterm, which I think I do fine on, but it’s all based on how rough it’s graded. I spit out lots of information, but I don’t know if I hit what they want.
I start getting tired and have a bad headache at night. I feel a bit of an attack coming, so I’m too out of it so I sleep at 11:00. I set my alarm for 12:00 so I can wake up have a night. I usually sleep by 4:00ish. However, I end up waking at 6:00AM instead because I set my alarm wrong. That’s the earliest I’ve ever slept in years. It’s so strange waking up like that. However, it turns out that Corinne’s online. She’s in Tokyo, Japan for the week on vacation. I speak to her for a bit and stay up because I can’t sleep. I sleep from 11:00AM to 3:00PM though.

I walk over to Chinatown at 6:00ish. I get a Banh Mi. If you don’t know, it’s a Vietnamese sandwich. It’s has yummy grilled pork, salami, pickled carrots, and cucumber on a French baguette. I then go food shopping.
Onions, peppers, carrots, snap peas, and chicken for an Asian stir-fry. Guacamole for my hot dogs. Honey for my pomegranate green tea. (Tea bags in a bottle, water, honey, let it sit in the fridge.) Lean cuisines are on sale, so I get Swedish meatballs and Mac n’ cheese.
I get back and figure some plans with CNF and Bolanos. CNF arrives here by 10:30ish, Bolanos shortly after. We drink a bunch and leave by 11:40. We walk around for a bit trying to find a place, but we end up going to Sidebar. A place I’ve been to a couple times for NYU shindigs. We meet Stefan there and see Atron’s cousin, Ellyse. It’s a bit of a cockfest, so we leave after a beer. CNF and Bolanos are hungry, so they stop at Papaya Dog. Jonah meets up with us because he’s near. I feel bad for walking the bunch of us like idiots trying to find a place near Union Square.
We go to the place that I went two weeks ago. By then it’s 2:00ish and the place is a bit dead, but at least it’s a nice place. Stefan shows up at this place too, but we eventually leave because Stefan wants to go to Artichoke. It’s a long line because it’s a popular pizza and it’s late. It’s famous for their Artichoke pizza.
Stefan, CNF, and Bolanos order a pie. It takes almost an hour waiting. While waiting, Bolanos shows that he has Adderall on him and he puts one on his hand. I randomly grab it and swallow. He says that it’s 20mg and that’s a lot for me. He gives me symptoms, not being able to sleep, dry mouth, and lack of appetite. He says it will hit in 30 minutes, but he doesn’t. They take a cab back to BK and Bolanos is staying at CNF’s. I start walking at 4:00ish and try to find a bar for a beer. Everything’s closed though and I get back at 4:20ish.
I stay up a bit, but before 6:00, it finally hits me. I don’t want to sleep. I’m thirsty, though that could be from the drinking. I should be hungry by now, but I’m not. Then there’s also a rush of energy. It’s not something that feels drug enhanced. We all know how I can turn up my Type A personality and just zone and act batshit fast doing stuff.
I decide to listen/read the oral arguments for Hamdi v. Rumsfeld. It’s for class and I enjoy doing it, so it’s fun. I also stay on Stickam for a while. I hang out with Corinne a while until she has to go out for the night. Even though I should’ve slept earlier, I end up sleeping at 10:30.
