the tale of a forty-five year-old hen occupying the body of a twelve year-old boy
Cindy: Mrs. Bennett
Millie: Jane Bennett

…which makes Justin Mr. Collins! Ha! Who else can be assigned a convenient role? Hm. I’ll have to think on this. That’s okay. I should be constructing a quiz for my children, anyway.

Me: The problem is that a lot of these things leave me with no shape.

So what up yall. I want to say that life has been pretty boring. Well, I went to Davis for Picnic Day and told my parents it was for a biology field trip. That was pretty fun. It is mostly a blur because for picnic day you get wasted, absolutely trashed. Thats what I exactly did. And boy did I have the time of my life. Not only did i get to witness 1000s of other drunk college students, but I got to see India, yes the India of UCDavis. Cindy knows about this community at Berkeley because that is who i hang out with all the damn time.
Drunk indians are quite humorous, Cindy has seen this with me multiple times. I tend to um make mistakes. But its ok none of them are hardcore…. yet.
But I made no mistakes in Davis, it was great. Cindy talked too much and fell asleep on teh ride back to pleasanton. it was depressing because then I coudlnt talk to cindy.
Anyways, back to India. I talk about India in this blog as a community, not the country. India and I have a love hate relationship. Drama and gossip prevails and it is the ideals that every indian dude and chicks stick by.
I hate drama and gossip, but then again who do i hang out with berkeley… indians. makes me the biggest hypercrite.
but its alrite because im indian.
and yes i can use that as excuse. stupid cindy is going to judge.
Ok we need to study. and cindy is hungry. she is a fattie horse. she came over TO study and what does she do. we gossip and talk about drama. yeah she is indian.
haha

…it’ll bite you in the ass. Not like what happened on The Real World: Paris, in the season premiere, which is probably a good thing. Funny, isn’t it, how the only episode I’ve ever watched of TRW is that one? And that the only description of that particular moment that I could find on the Internet was on a Parents Television Council website? (Believe me, I racked up all sorts of PATRIOT ACT points trying to find a video clip.)
Anyway, last weekend, I went up to Davis for Picnic Day. I somehow managed to have a higher tolerance than Allie’s entire apartment + the tall former Mormon from next door. There wasn’t too much gloating on my part, but there was some playful jesting. Well, here comes karma to bite me in the ass. This weekend saw the advent of Sigma Pi Galaxy and Fuck la Niña con la Piña. I’m not sure what screwed up my body chemistry to the point of a lowered tolerance. Thoughts of the Sketchy Pinky (who I was supposed to see the next day) could’ve been what did it. For whatever reason, I became intimately acquainted with the bathroom floor. &c.
Here’s what Allie requests that I broadcast to the world. Er, the very limited world that reads this. Which, I mean, is Mik, who will understand, and Stephe, who was there only other time it’s happened. (Thanks, Stephe and Katie!) Because she is my BEST FRIEND, all caps, and because she’s sad that people know she talks on the phone while urinating, what follows is my acquiescence to her request.
Brittany, Joyce, and I went to Fat Apple’s for brunch. I figured soup would be good. I was dead on my feet for much of the time…and then I excused myself to go to the bathroom. The good news: unlike how pancakes would’ve tasted, the veggie soup? Tasted much the same coming up as it did going down. Yes. Now, here’s what turned Allie’s stomach. I rinsed out my mouth, went back outside, and finished my meal. Including the leftover soup. What is so wrong with that?
Karma Points, as they stand:
+1,000,000 to Joyce
+2 to the sexiled roommate who had to get rid of me before he could get some action of his own…let’s hope he finally scored, huh?
+500 to Brittany (and Joyce, again) for having to watch my green gills for most of brunch
+20 to Melita for reminding me that I’m a small Asian girl
-40 billion to Small Asian Girls.

…Not Carma, though, because it’s not like I was driving or anything.
I recently poked fun at Wes for losing his composure on the El. While I did not lose my composure, I did sleep past Downtown Berkeley today, and had to switch to the reverse train at the North Berkeley BART station. Serves me right for making fun of Wes. Even if he deserves it, and won’t let me talk to his mom about her thoughts on Golden Rice.
Speaking of poke, and get your minds out of the gutter, kids, ’cause there’s only room enough for mine…
Via text:
Me: I can’t believe you’re still up! Poke Allie for me!
Millie: I know! I’ll poke her literally and Facebookly.
One last thing: Note how all the tags today start with ‘B.’ B is for Berkeley. GO BEARS 
(And Buckeyes, which also starts with ‘B.’)

This should be the last post of the night/morn. I told Mik I’d be on Skype until 1:00, and here it’s 1:46 already…
My genetics/genomics professor is causing some worry in my pocket of the lecture hall. When she first started lecturing, she was very direct and very speedy. The speed has slowed (ha!), perhaps in response to our request via the GSI, but she has also become a bit scattered. Sometimes, she’ll lose her train of thought in the middle of lecture. Also, today, she talked to us about her cold sores. Granted, it had to do with viruses, our current topic, but the manner in which it was presented seemed a bit overly-personal. I am hopeful that she is okay.
And now, without further ado, a little punny micro interaction!
Sebastian: Why are we learning this? What could possibly motivate me to remember this?
Me: Uh. It could enhance your social life.
Sebastian: Oh, right. Hey, you’re CI, and I’m CIII. Let me stabilize you!
Me: No thanks, I can turn myself on.
That was pretty nerdy. Wiki might help.

Joyce, I know you’ll read this eventually. So, surprise! You won’t like what I have to say, but…
Allie and I think you’re cute
In a slightly related matter, I just realized that I have used both “best friend” and “bff” as tags. Oops. Instead of rectifying (lacking the “um” and the “ify”) my incongruity, however, I am simply going to specify. Allie = best friend, because that’s how I referred to her before. Wes = bff, because it’s extremely close to “buff,” and, HELLO!?
