Friday, December 7

Meatballs Aren’t Italian--- I learned that just a few days ago from my roommates. Where have I been?

Dan just asked me to be a “guest write” on this, and I’m bored so I agreed. What else am I doing on a Friday night? Pathetic answer: laundry, browsing other peoples’ itunes chatting with Dan and my cousin via IM. Also it makes sense I was asked to write but Fat Dan should have asked me awhile ago, I mean we talked about what we had for dinner the next day in physics every morning. This whole thing is very reminiscent of xanga but I didn’t really talk about my meals in detail. Here it goes:
Breakfast: Having passed out around 11:45 I woke up nice and early at 7:30. Got dressed, second day in a row I have not even tried. I washed out my coffee cup in the bathroom. The bathroom sinks always have food particles in there. It’s disgusting. I take myself and my freshly clean coffee mug and go. I walk past Ting, who scans my ID, in fear that she’ll yell about me stealing coffee. I make my way over to the bagels, no poppy seed. I grab a plain bagel. Put it in the toaster, and pray to God it doesn’t get stuck and start a fire (again). Get some cream cheese from a giant disgusting tub and some jelly and I’m good to go. I sit there and watch Barry Bonds act like an asshole on Sports Center.
Oh, I also ate a piece of chocolate from my advent calendar. It’s not good but for some reason it makes me happy.
Lunch: Well track coaches don’t seem to understand the importance of food, not even my 300lb throwing coach because they keep me late every damn day. I ate lunch around 1:30 at this place called Jazzman’s. They play ridiculous elevator music and overcharge you for food, but at least it’s not the cafeteria. So a sandwich there for example will cost you $5.75, but you only are given $5.50 for a meal so then they take money from your flex plan. The woman told me I owed her $0.16 and I just stared at her and said I didn’t have it. I’m so intimidating that she took money from on top of the register and put it in the drawer. I ate walking back to my room because I had 30 minutes to eat, shower and make my way to the SET building to tutor people in Biology.
Dinner: After tutoring for an hour I went to the mall with Rob, Chris, Dana and Maddy. We took the shuttle to the parking lot off campus where Chris’s car is. I sat next to Rob, and he loved it. Then we all got in Chris’s mall and off to KOP. Some crazy ass Christmas shoppers honked at Chris the whole time. We walked all over the damn place, in no particular order and about an hour and a half in, we were hungry. Chris wanted Taco Bell and surprise so did I, but Dana in her health conscience way was more hesitant but finally gave in. Chris told us he was not that hungry, and then ordered six tacos. He later told me he normally gets 10. Then I got of course a crunch wrap supreme. Dana got some taco thing I don’t know. And Rob the outcast got Chinese food. Maddy, does not eat dinner, insisting dinner should be at 9. I must admit, we ate at like 4:40. We continued shopping; I got two things, one for me and one for Kate. I am not good at Christmas shopping. Before we left, I got a gelato. Delicious.
Snack: I came back and while Dana and Maddy watched Little Miss Sunshine I went to the lounge. I hate watching movies with other people, unless it’s in a theatre. It was also hot as hell in my room and no one notices. There I decided to eat Crispix, they seemed like a good idea when I bought them, but without milk they suck.

Writing this is just reminding me about how Dana made me sign up for this Weigh To Go thing at our school in which I had to weigh myself in the gym before Thanksgiving and I have to weigh myself after Christmas. If I stay the same or lose weight I get a free t-shirt… I already have enough t-shirts right?
