Back to the streets where we began

Today is an incredibly bizarre day. Let's bullet point!

  • I went to bed at 4:30 because I just couldn't stop watching all the VMA videos of our wretched, precious boys. UGH SO MANY HEARTS.
  • My body then proceeded to wake me up at 9 AM with a horrifically sore throat. That's right, 4.5 hours of sleep. BUT I'M NOT TIRED. It's so bizarre. I drank like a gallon of orange juice and my throat no longer hurts, which is good.
  • The gynecologist called - pap smear was negative, but urine culture showed a urinary tract infection. My first one! Oh joy! *makes face*
  • Karyn Convey from the international office at F&M called to tell me that she'd spoken to the Butler people, who run a study abroad program at Trinity (you may recognize the name from the list of study abroad programs that got subpoenaed after the recent New York Times article :P) and THEY HAVE A FREE SPOT IN THEIR HOUSING!!!! She didn't know many details, so I called the Butler person and he got me the specifics, and OH MY GOD this is fucking IDEAL. It's a gorgeous new-ish apartment complex in the heart of Dublin (Click! IT'S GORGEOUS!!!!), a ten minute walk from Trinity. I'd have a double room in a mini-suite with one other double, so three suitemates total. It has a kitchen and a lounge. The price Butler's charging is *so* much less than anything I could get in Dublin (about $1000 a month) and it's this amazing building with fitness facilities and a quiet area away from the bustle of Dublin proper, and it's just. A DREAM COME TRUE. The only drawback (and it's a kind of big one) is that the building doesn't have internet (?!? I do not understand) soooo, you know. However, being so close to Trinity's campus, with its wireless network, I don't think that will be a terrible hardship. It's certainly not worth passing up this opportunity and spending like a million dollars more on something not nearly as awesome. SO. I HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE OMG YAAAAAAAAY.


God that is such an incredible weight off. The main reason I was getting nervous was because of the uncertainty of where I was gonna lay my head. But then this happened! YAYE x A MILLION.

I'm STILL all about the VMA vids. A-MAZ-ING. <3333

WEEIIRRD. And exciting! Place to live! Yay!

And um, where can I find a vid of Rihanna feat. Fall Out Boy? That is just too amazing sounding not to listen to.

Speaking of up-and-down and exciting, my new close friend Cloie and I are taking the boy I like into Columbus-- it's about an hour-long ride. I'm going to molest him on the way there because Cloie doesn't want to drive back alone. I *was* going to work on my paper for my American Poetry After Modernism class, but I don't think it's going to happen. This icon is the closest thing I have to "EEEEE!"

Yay indeed! I'm so relieved.

*laughs* EEEEE indeed! Enjoy that honey, confined space for an extended period of time! ;)

Man those apartments are gorgeous. And being without internet will suck, but yeah, it's not worth a much more expensive, less awesome place. :)

Also? THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE VID LINKS. \o/

Cutest boyses evar, for serious. :)

Aren't they?? I'm kind of boggling that they're using them for student housing, and for so cheap too! AMAZING. I mean, the internet's important to me, but I'm trying to pretend like I'm not actually addicted and can make rational decisions, LOL.

You're welcome!!! I'm STILL watching them, SO MUCH AMAZING I CANT TAKE IT. Now where are the pictures???

Okay, still totally freaking out over the VMAs, but DUDE, AWESOME HOUSING! YOU FTW! \o/ No internet, okay /o\ but still, those apartments look AMAZING.

Thanks for the download link, I'll be able to carry their preciousness everywhere. HOW SO ADORABLE, DECAYDANCE FAMILY?

I'm so confused about the lack of internet, I mean, who builds a building in 2003 and doesn't put in internet? But still it's GORGEOUS and eeee *flail* I'll be living it UP, man! \o/

UGH THEY'RE SO DARLING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM <3333 You're welcome sweetie!
