Thanksgiving is Almost Here

November 16, 2009
During Spanish, I bomb a “quiz.” However, I think we have like 10 quizzes and it’s only like 5% of the classes grade. This mystery novel is so fucking annoying. After that, I have to figure stuff for the ACLU club. After that, I drop over to the post office. I packed up the cupcakes last night and had them frozen. Pack that shit up with some silica packets and get some mad scrap paper to make sure that it doesn’t shift around and get crushed. I’m also pretty excited for this Christmas because I’m planning to do some shopping for people. Just feel like being nice this year even though karma ain’t real.

I’m mad fuckin’ exhausted today because I didn’t get sleep over the weekend. I have a midterm tomorrow and I need to get shit studying done. However, I’m sort of an expert on this Constitution stuff already, but I still need to somehow find time to study. This fuckin’ Spanish novel has been taking so much time. I spend my entire commutes reading through only 1-2 chapters and answering the questions. Even then, I don’t comprehend and I do shit on the daily in class quizzes. 10 quizzes count up to 5% of the grade, so they count for nothing. I hit a 50% on one of the multiple choice because this stuff is BS hard. Doesn’t count for the grade, but professor pulled be aside because I’m a B+ student in the class. I say it’s not a big deal because I did score an 80% on the quiz of the day.
After classes, I have my ACLU meeting with a speaker from NYCLU. It goes late until 9:30. Fuck and that’s with the commute. Then again, we have catered sandwiches, which are darn ridiculous good. I take the LIRR this time so I can get home quick and my mom gives me a ride back.

I have my Constitution midterm at 6:20. I wake up to be productive and get my workout going. Been a week since I’ve done anything since I visited Bing and I’ve been super tired trying to recover some sleep. I’m relatively prepared for the midterm because a lot of this stuff is repetition of the stuff that I’ve already taken.
It goes pretty well with me basically using up an entire Blue Book though I have gone past one before. It truly feels like an accomplishment when you do that amount of marathon writing, but it does kill my hand. I also get really annoyed to see that this one guy gets to write on his laptop. I guess he has some BS excuse. Dude, if I had a laptop, I would literally write like 10 pages, straight up. I don’t let it bother me though because it’s not my business.
After this, I take the F down the Lower East Side. I saw some Michigan themed Yelp event and Katie pushed me to go. Rocking my MSU shirt that she got me, I go down there to my first Yelp event. I get there by 8:00ish and meet some pretty awesome people. It’s nice to see that the Yelp community is loaded with good peeps.
Some drinking, some talking and shmozin.’ I tell people about my trip to Michigan and it’s fun getting into the conversations about reminiscing about the Midwest connection. We eventually get a game of Kings going. I like one of the cards where you pour a little bit of your beer into an empty cup and the last person drinks it. We ended the game early and I ended up chugging that drink. Heyo, no drink goes undrunken.
Everyone ends up dispersing before 11:00. I take the train to Penn Station. It’s boring without my iPod, which is dead and having issues randomly. Good times, I’ll definitely have to hit up the Yelp event on Friday.

I wake up not really hungover. The ride is mad boring because of the lack of an iPod. Class is boring and I skip my 4:55 class. I wake to 4 hours and there is no final so why do I need class? Hell, I don’t even need to do the readings. I get home to update my Yelp account. I have to work up those reviews. I also get some RateMyProfessor going. It’s important to get my important opinions out there. People need my advice.
I don’t end up doing anything and just chill. I end up going to Panera for dinner with Kenny. I get some awesome food actually. I haven’t eaten anything all day. The food ain’t cheap, but it’s nom nom good. I drink mad unlimited ice tea and ice coffee. Stay until 10:20ish and then I drop him off and go back home. A chill day, though I’m looking forward to tomorrow because of the Yelp event and open bar. Lets party party this weekend kids.

No one wants to go to the Yelp Event other than Miah. I pick up Miah and we go to my house. I eat some fried dumplings that grandma made. The last of the Chinese food in the house because grandma is over at Aunt’s and I have to fend for myself. We both have a little bit of gin and then walk over to the LIRR. We get to the event early. You can read about the rest on my review.
I leave with a few of the people that I met at the first Yelp event that I went to. Miah is real slow and I tell him where to catch up with us since we’re going to a wine bar in the East Village. I get to the place and he should be right behind us. I find out that literally only moved 2-3 blocks because he was throwing up. Fuckk.
I awkwardly tell people that I’ll be back and run over to find him. I’m sobering up a bit by now and I’m not too happy about running 4-5 blocks across the East Village to find him. I sprint all way while I’m on the phone sort of shouting at him. He’s just drunk and lost. People casually walking around at 10:00ish probably have no clue what’s happening when an Asian man is running top speed while cursing his brains out. I think people make a few comments. I end up finding him and I get him some water.
He was vomiting shit. We walk over back to the wine bar and he can’t go in because he doesn’t feel good. He said he can’t hold down food since sometimes that helps me. He just needs to drink loads of water and chill out to sober up. I go inside for a bit. Liz has to go end up leaving because of work. I want to make it to the other bar where I won a raffle for an open bar. I say Bye to people and Miah and I go.
I need to get him another water and get to the bar. It’s way fucking crowded and after waiting around, I find out that it’s too late to cash in on my open bar. Fuckkkk. I’m sober by now. Evan said that he might come. Without notice, he randomly shows up with Sam, Doug, and Josh. Apparently Doug is back in town for a bit. It’s good that I ran into them and get to chill with them for a bit. Evan and I check up on Miah and he’s still bleh. Doug, Miah, and I want to catch the 1:19 train. We don’t have enough time to take the subway. We have a hard time finding a cab, but end up getting one with this random guy that I also needs to get to Penn. He ends up paying for the cab, nice. We take the train back and Jeremiah comes back to my place. I heat up an entire frozen pizza and eat it myself. I’m such a fuckin’ pig. Jeremiah doesn’t want to eat nor does he want to stay when I ask. He says he’s fine to walk back, so okay.

I wake up a bit hungover, but I’m okay a few hours in. I find out from Lauren that she hasn’t heard from Miah and I get freaked out that he didn’t get home safe. Oh shit. For all I know, he could’ve walked home and passed out on someone’s lawn. However, I later find out he’s okay.
For dinner, I meet up with Kerri, Candace, and Kim at Panera. We then go to a bakery and then we hang at Candace’s watching some TV. We watch this silly thing about drunk people and police tapes of their antics. Jonah shows up at 10-11:00 from dinner at Flushing. We decide to play Mall Madness, which has the most ridiculous set up ever. So much labor is needed. In the end, it’s basically like Monopoly, but actually ends instead of going on and on. Kerri has to go and the remaining four of us play Scattergories. We go through all twenty lists until 3-4:00AM. I end up losing. I had a lead at first, but I’m not the best at the game and I got tired and start blanking out.

I wake up not wanting to go to class. I’m pretty fuckin’ tired and not in the mood to step into the cold. I compensate, on campus, I get two eggs on a roll, which isn’t too unhealthy. Spanish class is just writing, but we have a really annoying test next week. I get to the library and I realize I don’t have my headphones. I’m not sitting here for 6 hours waiting for class without headphones. I want to go back, but I decide I should get work done and borrow a mouse and headphones from the library.
Brah, this shit is mad annoying.
