Haven't Posted in a While

February 13, 2009
While walking to meet up the guys, I get a call from Danielle. Two days ago, she told me on Stickam that she’s running away from home to Michigan and she’s only 17. I tell Atron that she’s going to do that because he’s known her better than I do for a while. Earlier today, I get a call from Atron that his mother and the police called him about it. He ends up giving my number because he thinks that I know more.
I miss the police’s call and call them back. I give information that I don’t really know anything. He asked for some personal info like last name, address, and DOB. I didn’t really care since I wasn’t involved and I’ve never even met her. Anyway, the call from Danielle. She says that she’s home and that everything’s better/okay. She apologizes that I had to get involved or what not.
I meet CNF, Josh, and Evan at San Loco. We walk to a nearby bar where Stefan is with friends. I suddenly realize that there is a bunch of Prague people there. I say Hi to them. We depart quickly because Stefan is meeting his new girlfriend. Yes, surprised and great for him!
It’s interesting that a few of the people don’t even notice me. I guess it’s a bit of a compliment towards the new DWeez 2.0. Josh and Evan decide to bitch out for the night. CNF and I go to the crowded Ace Bar that we’ve never been to. It’s crowded, but they have Miller High Life for $3. We stand around for a bit and CNF me a bit about familial restraints on dating and stuff. Though I tell it to him straight that he should worry about getting relationship first and that it’s not an issue until that occurs.
We then go back an unnamed bar on the same block that we’ve been to a few times to sit around and grab a Yuengling. CNF is hungry and we go to vegetarian Indian place where he gets two dosas. He then goes home and I go home for a bit more drinking before I go to McDonald’s for the second night a row. I get a Big Mac meal, but drop a large portion of the fries. I then get another hamburger and small fries. You gotta put those fries INTO the sandwich.

February 14, 2009
Jonah and CNF get dinner and they end up heading to Josh’s at 11:00ish. I go too. Before I leave, I’m pretty shitfaced from pregaming. By the time I get to Josh’s, drinking has pretty much halted to a stop. You gotta check yourself before you wreck yourself.
Josh has two small joints that Jonah surprisingly joins in on. I planned on only taking 1 hit, but I end up taking 2-3. The drunk is really easy to control if you have experience like me. Even at the most shitfaced, I’m quite the eloquent orator. However, the weed just throws it into overdrive and I just slump into a mess. I have my head down for most of the night and end up leaving with CNF.
By the time I get back, I’m not too bad, but I’m hungry again so I go to get a $5 footlong. I go for a refill and after I get one, I find out that it costs $.50. Wow, I never knew fountain drinks could charge on refills. That’s so bullshit.

February 19, 2009
CNF says that he’s going to cook dinner for people. I suggest a lot of stuff to add to it, but he doesn’t say much about it. I go over to his place at 5:00ish and Atron’s older sister, Ellyse, and Stefan are there. I help CNF cook the chili. It turns out fine with brown rice.
Then again, that personally as one person takes me an hour to make with prep. I would’ve way more crazy with things. We also grab a few beers with dinner. Stefan and Ellyse leave by 9:00-10:00. Candice and her b/f then come and Josh, CNF, and them two smoke some weed. I’m fine and only take a small puff. Josh and I then go to get beer. Jonah by then shows up. I then have to look for cigarettes which is a real bitch and I eventually find a Duane Reade that takes too long because them Brooklyn peoples cause issues.
When I get back, it turns out that CNF is throwing up in the bathroom. He comes out in a bit and talks to us for a bit then runs back into the bathroom. He literally onto had three beers and some chili, so I guess it was eating too much and the weed. It sucks and I feel bad for him. We eventually leave before 12:00 because I do have class tomorrow at 9:30.

February 20, 2009
CNF comes in. We go to this very dim lit, datey place for coffee. I guess that’s a bit awkward, it’s near NYU campus. There are other couples there and then there’s him and me at a table. What the fuck…We then have nothing to do and go to Fat Cat again, grab a few beers. We there a bit, then go back home.

February 21, 2009
There’s an NYU Facebook event thingy. It’s at Sidebar, which is near Union Square, only a 10ish minute walk. I go myself because no one else wants to go. I’ve done this before. Am I going to be an idiot and just sit home myself? Nah, fuck it, I go. Last night I went, it was pretty awkward, but it’s still good to see people and such. It’s way crowded and the “ratio” is amazing. I see Courtney and Danielle from Prague. I also speak to Liz from Prague for a bit. She notices that I look different because I guess from the dress and the contacts. I guess I take it as a compliment.
I then run into a girl from my Spanish class who’s drunk and too happy to see me. A lot of the night is walking through the crowd and trying to find people that I have some contact with so I can say Hi. There’s an awkward gay situation where I’m trying to walk through this area and a guy from behind grabs my waist for a second. I’m too bored and non-confrontational to do or say anything. How weird. I run through three beers through the night for $15.
There’s another strange situation that girl grabs my arm while she’s walking through the crowd. I guess it’s my amazing confidence that I pull my hand away, assume she was trying to bring her friend through the crowd, and just walk away. I also recognize this girl from two semesters ago when my roommate had a party. My roommate, his friend, and I all mentioned her that day as “hot Hispanic dress girl.”
The last time I did something like this I left pretty quickly, but I ended up staying till 2-3:00ish.

February 22, 2009
Evan wants to do stuff tonight. He says that people might be at Sidebar again tonight. Back to back. However, we don’t really know people there so we end up leaving. We go to the store and get a cider and Magic Hat Raspberry beer. The cider is really delicious. It really tastes like actual apple juice, but it’s 5.5% (high) alcohol. The magic Hat smells really strong of raspberry and it’s great. We go to his place to have it while watching some YouTube basketball highlights. I end up leaving by 2:00ish.

Part of a Week

February 6, 2009
I find out that Evan’s going to be around tonight. Jenn takes a train into the city. I meet up with Jenn and we go to Evan’s by 11:00ish. Jonah comes over too and we end up meeting CNF and Josh outside. By now, there’s been drinking flowing. Jenn starts talking about all these guys she’s texting and stuff, but wouldn’t do anything about it. A tease, horrible. We go to Ace Bar, which is in the East Village. We went there last time people were in the city. You don’t need ID to get in and it’s $4 Black and Tans.
We stay there for a while until we find out that Jenn missed her 3:19 train. We sit around at Evan’s common room for a while. There, I interrogate Jenn about her being a friend to CNF. I actually don’t get much out of her that she wouldn’t say Yes to if she asked him out. Evan and Jonah get furious at me for being an amazing interviewer, but that’s their loss. She takes the 5:00 something train, we all depart. A good night.

February 7, 2009
I find out in the afternoon Bolanos and Tim are coming down to Brooklyn because there’s a tribute show for J-Dilla. I start pre-gaming at 8:00ish. I leave by 9:00ish. I take the subway uptown so I can take the L down to Williamsburg. My pregame was really good and I meet them by 10:00ish. It’s only $5 to get in and my ID clears. Perfect record so far.
I grab a beer for $5. Then I get one of the deals, bourbon and a Bud for $7. It’s not really a concert really, but more of a bar/club/venue thingy. They play his music and a few guys on stage just rep the stage to keep it entertaining. I get well drunk. Tim decides to get back to Binghamton instead of staying in Staten Island like they planned. I get dropped off blocks away from me, which is good because then I don’t need to take an hour subway ride back. I speak to Spamps for a while on the phone. I end up sleeping by 5:00 AM I think.

February 12, 2009
CNF and I are bored so he comes into the city. We meet up at my place and go to Fat Cat. We both have a couple beers and decide to leave. He goes to Tuck Shop and he ends up leaving early. It’s a good night going out since I don’t have class on Friday.
I end up walking to McDonald’s late at night because I’m starved. Starved + drinking = Fiending.
I’m eating fast and I realized that I should’ve gotten a drink too. I go to get a drink, then I turn around and find out that the person there had thrown out the rest of my food. Fuckin hell. I walk out in a storm and email McDonalds. I’m too drunk to complain to the guy.

Superbowl Weekend

January 24, 2009
While, I looked forward to my Con Law; Age of Terror class, I could tell that it isn’t heading the right direction by the first class. The entire class is taken up by a silly exercise of asking people what they personally feel about torture. Obviously, people have to have their own little opinions and it just become a mess of nothingness. An appropriate question would be, “What is the international/federal law on torture? How has it changed throughout time? How has it been applied recently in this age of terrorism?” Asking, “What do you personally feel about torture?” is absolute Bullwinkle.
The next class involves another one of these questions, “What if hypothetically, Guiliani dccided to shut off all of Manhattan right after 9/11?” We do touch a bit on the issues of federalism and constitutional rights about this issue, but then it goes onto another guessing fest. Then the class after goes into personal opinions on war, whether people supported aggression, pacifism, whatever rules of law, etc. So far, this class really has had little objective learning and almost all useless heresy of people’s opinions that I could care less about.

January 30, 2009
I’m told that people are going to Josh’s early, which is good. I get there by 9:00ish to start an early night. I’ve pregamed and work on a bit of vodka and ice water there. We sit around hang out with CNF, Josh, Jonah, and Stefan. Jonah tells me about the almost $600 meal he had with Stefan at Momofuku.
Stefan ends up leaving early because he’s tired. We watch an episode of Flight of the Concords, which is decent, but not something I really want to do when hanging out with people. We then go out for a food/beer run. Only beer for me please.
I get a large bottle of Sam Adams.

January 31, 2009
I wake up by 11:00ish to get some Magic business done. I randomly see two good Magic friends that I know from Flushing there. It’s not far, only in the 20s Ave. I get back home, slack off and starting drinking. I call around and nothing really is happening, so it’s a night by myself. At 1:00ish, I end up going to Slainte across the block because I want some beer. I get a Bud Lite for $5. I then try to class it up with a Yuengling, turns out that’s also $5. Why the fuck did I get a Bud? And why are they priced the same?
I then go back to the apartment and sit around a bit. Near 4:00, I get a call from Stefan that he’s in the East Village. I go out to meet with him. We find out that nothing’s open by now. We then go to the store to get some tallboys. We get back and speak for a while with the beers. He leaves after an hour or so. I realize by 5:30 that I need to stop drinking. I sleep by 7:00.

February 1, 2009
Wake up in the afternoon. Don’t want the Superbowl. Don’t do anything all day.

End of Break and First School Week

January 18, 2008
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.

January 20, 2008
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.

January 21, 2008
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.

January 18, 2008
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.

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!

lots

November 7, 2008
I go with Evan to grab some food. We go to the big liquor store near NYU where he gets me two handles because they’re so cheap. I get one that’s cherry Georgi, which turns out to be disgusting.
I find out that Evan’s busy and doesn’t want to go to the bar party and we’re invited too. Derrick, who was Gianfranco’s friend that visited Prague, is having a shindig. I was invited through Facebook. I’m gonna be seeing lots of people that I haven’t seen in a while like Gianfranco.
I get there past 12:00, the thing starts at 11:00. There’s a lot of drifting around for me. I say Hi to a lot of people, but it’s mostly short convos and awkwardly floating around. Gianfranco eventually comes and I take a shot with him. Someone else buys me a shot and I buy two beers through the night. By the end of the night, I’m pretty shitfaced.
In the end, it’s really great seeing people again, but I don’t feel I established links well enough, so I’m not really optimistic that I might be seeing these people again or hanging out with them. It’s quite a hit to be seeing all the people from Prague.
I end up leaving by 2:20 and get KFC on the walk back. Hopefully tomorrow is fun.

November 17, 2008
It was a slow weekend since no one was around. Didn’t really do anything, though a lot of time on Stickam speaking to Nikki, who again I’ve been speaking to more than anyone else I know.
At least I’ve been reading about of a lot Constitutional Law stuff like the cases dealing with Guantanamo, free speech for class, and religion clauses for a paper.
I have an ALCU meeting, which is the second to last. I speak to some random people about the Politics classes and there’s just some food next time, that’s about it. Hopefully I’ll become better involved next semester.
I find out that I get into the NYU Law Shadowing program. I get to speak to a NYU Law (Top 5 law school in the country) student and attend one of his classes. It’s an amazing opportunity.

November 21, 2008
So it turns out that the first year Con. Law class that I get to go too is pretty cool. I spent hours before it reading Roe and Griswold. The professor is a great lecturer. Doesn’t stumble when speaking, prepared, and quick. I don’t know if that’s a good thing, but I like fast speakers.
The class actually turns out to be a lot like my Civil Liberties class. She gives a lecture on the thinking of the Court when deciding the case and allows people to give their opinions. From their opinions and how many people are taking notes/paying attention, it seems that I would really hold my own if I was in that class. Then again, I can’t really dig on them because they got into the school, something that I will not be doing…
Anyway speaking about that, I’ve had a great fire this semester of reading cases along with what my class asks for. Here’s some stuff that I’ve just spent hours and hours reading. And listening through podcasts.

Free Exercise Clause
Establishment Clause
Eminent Domain
Free Speech
Incorporation
Administrative law, Chevron deference, legislative veto
Lochner era, striking down of it
Substantive due process, Roe, Griswold, Carhart
Gitmo cases, Boumedeine, Rasul, Hamdi, Hamdan (watching ALCU movie)
Campain Reform/Spending
4th Amendment, exclusionary rule
Judicial jurisprudence

Evan said earlier that we should be doing stuff tonight. Lets see if that happens.
We end up going to the bar near us. We know the bartender and he makes up a deal of two Miller High Life for $5. I take that while Evan goes four gin and tonics deep. We then take a cab to Still, a popular NYU place. The place is poppin’ and loaded with people.
I get another beer since I’m taking it not too harshly. However, Evan gets two gin and tonics. I try to get him to work the shit and he actually shmoozes it up a bit with a really cute asian girl. However, he doesn’t follow it up and he loses her to another guy. I try to get him to wing with me otherwise, but that doesn’t work out since he ends up superdrunk. We go to Karthik’s place, stand around for a bit, he’s drunk, we leave, we get food, take a cab back, and end of night.
Although the game wasn’t thrown down hard, we were out and Evan finally got drunk. A great night in context.

November 30, 2008
Lots of people want to go to Dino, but there are issues. It’s an over an hour trip for me. It’s a long subway ride from 1st Ave to 131st. There’s also walking. They also don’t have ressies, so what’s that! I don’t really trust the fact that they might not get in or it will be an hour wait or something.
Turns out that they do get in, but they don’t do anything for the night, what a good plan for the night….
At 2:30ish, I go to this place I found on Sunny and Annie’s from Yelp. This is the review I wrote.
I just walked back from Sunny and Annie’s. It’s by far the best I’ve had in the East Village. I walk in and ask for the Monalisa. The guy throws in a breaded chicken cutlet in the microwave. The Korean guy that runs the place shouts at the people in the bathroom that they shouldn’t be using it and how he spent $700 in fixing it.
The guy flattened my roll and I’m confused why he’s doing it. It’s toasted. Then loads of roasted peppers are thrown on. Then at least 4-5 leaves of fresh basil. Then multiple slices of fresh mozzarella. If you guys care of about food, yes, FRESH mozzarella is put on. Then a load of balsamic. Then on with the cutlet. It costs $5.50.
I walk away eating it and I might’ve ejaculated in my pants. The sandwich is so big that it makes sense that the roll was flattened. After eating it, I realized in my bag that there’s a pickle in aluminum foil. A nice finishing to the best sandwich I’ve had. Go there, it’s so good.

The day is slow. I do a Psych study that is really boring and annoying. I just stare a boring screen and get shocked. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s annoying to sit there still for 30 minutes. So annoying.
Anyway, Stickam update.
I’ve been speaking to Corinne actually a lot. She calls me during her work breaks and we speak on AIM a lot during the weekend. She’s been recently going live, so I spend a lot of time there. She’s apparently coming to NYC in January.
It’s strange that so many people have disappeared off of Stickam. Then again, I guess people have lives.

It’s Boris’ birthday and I start drinking at night. We only go out at 12:00. Before that, I go to the Russain liquor store to pick up a bottle of JD because Evan thinks we should get a gift for him.
It’s at an apartment very close to us. It’s a pretty busy party, but Boris leave immediately and we go outside to stand around with Karthik, who’s pretty drunk. We stand around like idiots for a while and I tell Evan, we gotta move and do something. We have to either go back into the party or follow people who are leaving for a bar. Instead, we stand around for a while and try following the people.
We end up losing them and it turns to be a cock fest of a few drunk doods. Karthik’s drunk and wanders off. The other doods end up losing themselves or whatever. A waste of a party.

I’m invited on Facebook to this bar thing because Jenn, one of the girls I knew from Prague is moving back to LA. This again is like the thing I was invited too with Derek and Gianfranco. It’s going to be Prague people that I haven’t seen or talked to, but what am I going to do? Stay in and be a weirdo instead of going out and try to feel shit out?
Evan and I go to Five Guys for a bit. While I only needed 1 handle, I forgot to tell him. He got me two and there’s only 1 week of school left. Also, the night before, Brian was at Evan’s. He apparently also watches Pick Up and we have a paralleled conversation over it. It’s interesting because he’s used it to success and he’s also watch the episodes like me. We speak a lot about it and exchange ideas about it.
I pregame really hard and also find out that Evan isn’t coming with me. Socially anxiety is a killer and pregaming really hard does a good work on that. When I get there, I grab a beer. I see a lot of the peoples and they’re pretty darn nice to me. Charlotte is pretty and for some reason playing with my hair and stuff. Liz and I speak about Gossip Girl for a while. I hang with Allyse and her brother, Brendan for most of the night with his two cops friends. They joke that they have to get me more Irish and get a double shot of Jameson. I was already really shitfaced when I got there. The beer pushes me, the double shot really shoves me. I need a break and go outside for a “cig.” Instead, I’m super drunk and go over to the pizza and grab a drunk slice.
I get back and all inhibitions are dropped by then. They’ve ordered by another double shot and I take it. I’m so shitfaced that even the bartender notices by giving me a glass of water. That’s fuckin so embarrassing. We then go outside for a bit and the bouncer tells Brendan that I can’t go back in. I was planning to leave anyway because I was so drunk. I end up shamefully leaving and having to take someone’s number so I text when I get home safely.
