"no feelings in general"
to describe the year that just passed, i'd say that things got more and more ridiculous up until the very last day.
-----
i used to live alone. now i don't. that's good.
-----
spring was good, and summer was better, but fall was the best, by far. stress and tension, sure, but friends and good times made it better. there's always drama in college, and shit, you can't avoid it, but you try. to be called insensitive was a highlight. maybe folks just don't get the difference when you know when to react.
-----
had a job, quit the job, got a new one. a better one. this too is good. from tourguiding to designing, it's a step in the right direction if i want to start my own firm.
-----
i was twenty. now i'm twenty-one. this is also very good. here's to more nights i can't remember and pictures i won't forget.
-----
california is a gorgeous state.
-----
the thing is, though, when you wake up tomorrow after the fireworks and the champagne, it's all another day. yo just have to get used to writing a new number after 2-0-0. and it takes a while, and when you're finally used to it, it's time to change it again.
-----
new year, new number. if you want it, email me.

"so there was this guy, right, and he tries to go on our bus for la roadtrip. we're all changing, and all of a sudden he's all, 'hey guys, can i ride on your bus?' and i was like, 'no dude, this is for the band.' so he kept pestering me, this guy, he was really tall. and it looked like he needed to shave, too."

"sexy face, gabi, sexy face!"

long time no see
since i last updated...

thanksgiving was great. my brother, his roommate, and a bunch of our cousins and friends in mountain view were good times all around. on top of cooking a turkey on thanksgiving, the next day, we cooked another turkey. (can you say fatty?)
-----
band awards banquet. my last one, and yes, it was bittersweet, as expected. congratulations to next-comm: allie, heather, hanadi!, david, and ryan... you'll make coming back and visiting that much more fun.
the great part was, really, the election process. aiye. i'd rather knock back like four shots of really bad tequila in a row.
-----
AiR fall show. huge success. we sounded tight, we had our confidence up, and we just plain had fun. the afterparty on saturday was pretty crazy, too, from what i remember and from what every other sober person told me i was going crazy.
if anything, it just adds proof that i'm the biggest kissing slut in the world.
-----
newman-senior potluck. reminiscing about the past three years is crazy because it never really feels like much until it's all over and done with. at the end of it all i wanted to give everyone a huge hug -- to the fourth years because to most of us, we're done and won't have this feeling ever again, and to the newmen, who we're all so jealous of because they've got three more years to make huge mistakes.
nothing but love.
-----
