Holy crap, I have so many photos to post.
I hope you enjoyed the wasabi story!!!!

WHERE TO START? IT'S BEEN TOO LONG!

Friends:

Ryan and I have been conferring via snail mail since I arrived in SF! It's pretty awesome. He uses the typewriter I got for his bday, and I use stationary I have. We've gotten about 200% closer since I moved, which is crazy!

Gunner and I are about the same closeness, so that's good. we chat on the phone every now and again.

Rachael and I....it's weird, we haven't chatted in about two weeks. It's both our faults, really. She's super busy all the time, with hw and her sister being engaged! It's one of those situations where I'm busy when she's not visa versa. Eek! But I don't think it's affecting out friendship in the sense that I know when we will talk next we'll blabber on no problema.

Leah and I haven't spoken since I left except for occasional messages via facebook. Grr.

Nathaniel and I chat ALOT via MSN. Isn't that crazy?!

Alex is driving me absolutely bonkers. I really don't have feelings for him anymore but he obviously does for me. It's awkward and I really should tell him straight but I feel like it would be mean. yuck. He and I definetly not as close as before. Want to hear something crazy? Since he got to college he's now a partier AND he's a pledge in the fraternity Sigma Nu. I was really suprised.

College Friends:

Liz and I have gotten pretty close. Most of the time I like her more than Amanda, but she has some character flaws that really piss me off. It's easier for me to talk to her than Amanda too, and we're more into the same activities. She's super smart too.

Amanda is so effing emotional. It drives me crazy. She reminds me of Courtney in the way that she's like "I'm going to be like THIS from now on" but of course there's no follow through. and she's so messy. but she's super sweet and funny.

Samantha is hilarious! She's super fun and great to be around. I think if I lived with her I'd find plenty of flaws like I have with Amanda and Liz though.



Me, Sebastian and Samantha! at like 2am one night.

Sebastian. I'm not so sure I'd call him a friend. He's more on "buddy" level. I donno. He's super cool tho.
SEVEN FEET TALL. HOLY CRAP.

Adam doesn't make any sense. I think I did something to really annoy him because he doesn't talk to me like he used to. but whatever, he's adorable.

Steve is actually a friend of Liz's, but I'm slowly working on seducing him. He's super duper funny. and cute. eeek!

School:

Fashion Illustration. I'm definelty improving in that class! I just need to schedule my time better!

Visual Merchandising. I am PWNING this class. Except for quizzes. Fucking hell, I hate hate hate tests. They mess up my grade hardcore. I did really well on my midterm project presentation, I know that! Not so sure how I did on the midterm exam tho :(

Intro to Fabrics is PWNING me. I really suck.

Intro to Fashion Business is ok. The teacher doesn't really know how to teach. eek!

In general, I'm not applying myself fully therefore only doing OK.

Other FUN Stuff!

Besides the Wasabi story, the most interesting that has happened was ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. I went to a midnight showing last saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was sooo much fun.
We've been planning it for awhile, and it really all came together nicely! :)
Most of us dressed up as specific characters wooo!

PHOTOSTORYTIMESam and Samantha came to Amanda, Liz and my dorm around 8pm.
The game plan:

1. Meet Steve and some of Liz's friends outside the Pine St Dorm at 8:30
2. Walk to Steve's sister's apartment, get dressed and do makeup there.
3. Leave to go to Clay Theatre at 10:30
4. ROCKYHORRORTIME

What actually happened:
Sam and Samantha show up at 8:15. We're running late, of course! haha! We all decide to get mostly dressed in our outfits, minus makeup. I put on my tights, skirt and bodice. I put my Tower of Terror shirt on over my bodice because I thought it was halloween-y :). I put on flats to walk around in, and put makeup, satin black gloves and my heels in my purse. Samantha got decked out in her maid outfit minus makeup and heels. Amanda got decked out as well but minus makeup, but wore her boots. Liz wore everything but makeup. Sam really only had these cool glasses that he got when he, Amanda and I saw Nightmare before Christmas 3D! woo!



Sam being nerdy :)


Samantha gettin purdy

We didn't end up leaving the dorm until about 8:45. Steve and Liz's friends weren't there yet grr.



Liz and I killing time. That pic didn't come out.

Then Liz's friends showed up. They were 3 girls, none of them very social with us at all. but whatever! Steve finally came down as well, and said we ought to meet up with some of his friends down the street. We got to the corner of Pine and Leavenworth, where we were to meet them, at about 9:00. They didn't show up until about 9:20. We all walked to Steve's sister's and she was super nice! Some of the kids started drinking, rum and cokes and cheap beer mostly.
Then the chicas started to get ready!



Me, Samantha and Liz


Nick and another of Steve's friends playin guitar :)

Have you ever heard the song "Business Time" by Flight of the Conchords? It is hilarious! I convinced Steve and Nick to perform it. I was grinning like an idiot, it was so funny!

Here are some lyrics, so you can get a feel for the song:
Girl, tonight we're gonna make love.
You know how I know, baby?
'Cause it's Wednesday.
And Wednesday night is the night that we make love.
Tuesday night�'s the night that we go and visit your mother, but Wednesday night is the night that we make love.
'Cause everything is just right conditions are perfect.
There's nothing good on TV.
Conditions are perfect.
You lean in close and say something sexy like,
"I might go to bed I've got work in the morning."
I know what you're trying to say baby.
You're trying to say,
Oh, yeah. It's business time.
It's business time.

(Your father must be appaled by your choice of friend. JUST WAIT UNTIL HE SCROLLS DOWN AND SEES MY COSTUME!
hahahahaha
My sister saw these pictures and asked if I was trying to give our dad a heartattack.
whoops!)

Then on the walk to the theatre....Liz's friends were pretty drunk as well as Steve. Then they started blazin' which was interesting haha.
At one point Steve asked me to hold some of his stuff in my purse, and dropped half of it, missing my HUGE purse completely. So we got left behind a bit. He asked me "Am I wasting my time with Liz?"
I was really glad he asked this question. It has been super obvious that he was pursuing Liz, and Liz was not interested AT ALL. And she was sending pretty clear signals too! I knew she was becoming annoyed with him. So I told him, "Yes, yes you are." And he was like, "Alright. Thanks."
The other reason I was glad he asked was because I've got the hots for him, even though I've tried really, really hard not to. I never understood why Liz wasn't interested in Steve, because I think he's a pretty cool dude! But whatever.

We made it to the theatre at about 11:20, ten minutes before they started selling tickets. Not alot of people were there, suprisingly. So at 11:30 we got our student-priced tickets and got an AWESOME place in line, right at the corner of the building. The the pictures began. These are only a few. Samantha and I took about a total of 60 pictures the whole night, from my dorm to the theatre.



WOOOOOOOOOOOOO YEAH!


Liz and I

Amanda kissed me on the cheek ^_^

At one point in the night these two guys, one dressed as Rocky and the other as Dr. Scott, asked our section of line "Who HAS NOT seen Rocky Horror at Midnight?". And me, being the honest fool I am, raised my hand. The Rocky grabbed my wrist and told me, "Ooooh, you shouldn't have raised your hand." And I was really perplexed, and simply asked, "....What?"
Rocky (and it turns out he was the Rocky of the cast! haha!) said to me, "Don't worry, we're just going to draw all over you."
Oh god.
The Dr. Scott walked over to me and shook my hand and asked if I had seen RHPS before, and I said no. Then he pulled out a lipstick and said to me, "I think you need a bit more" and I was like, "No, I'm good," turned my head and showed him the cheek imprint from Amanda, "I'm got some riiight here."
He laughed and said, "Let me emphasize it a bit." And drew a V for (Rocky Horror Picture Show) Virgin on my cheek!



Rockin the V ;)

Overall it was a pretty awesome night, and definitely the time when I was most out of my shell!

So, to summarize:
