I soooooo want to see Honey

Jessica Alba is soooooo hot. 

These were taken at the pond by my apartment during a nice post-dinner stroll amongst empty promises of future visits.  Sadly, those promises were compromised by sleep inducing textbooks, exhausting work conditions and cold cold weather.  I have yet to take another trip to the pond...and it's literally across the street...I hate that.  I hate being a student and not having money to buy things even my meager research assistant salary could afford.  I hate being in Boston and having to count down the hours until their public transportation stops running.  I hate having a good professor replaced with a bad one just because the prior refused to make his mind stimulating exams a regurgitation exam.  I hate the idiotic kid in my class who raised his hand and demanded from the professor an explanation regarding the relevance of our biochem class to our future profession as pharmacists.  I hate having to read about friends' parties on blog pages instead of being the drunken ass that's being blogged about...not that I get drunk or anything. 

I hate not being in New York.

A REAL LIVE swan!!!

I stayed up til 1:30 last night to try to win this on ebay.  until 1:29, there was only one other bidder...during that last minute, SIX people were bidding for it.  I LOST with 2 seconds left.  I was PISSED. 

Today, there was another pair for sale...and the same people were bidding for it.  but this time i refreshed the page EVERY second, to make sure i was on top...and i WON. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA. MUAHAHAHAHA.  It's so exciting to bid on ebay...my heart was pumping the 5 minutes leading up to the auction battle. 

So, now I am the proud owner of a pair of Nike Shox NZ in red and white.  And now I can go running....when it gets warmer!! tee hee.....

(it is SO cold here...i'm talking mid twenties in the morning. AAAAAAAH!)

So i went to this Hip Hop and Jazz class on campus...and it was actually like a class/ meeting for the Dance Club (which i signed up for, and they never contacted me).  Anyhow, i get there with my two whole friends and we notice that the rest of the girls there are the SORORITY girls and we were like OH NO.  And i guess they're all part of the dance club, cuz they were all standing around in a circle talking about the upcoming raffle that they're holding.  They were totally being exclusive and they acknoledged us with a few GLARES. Yeah, they were totally staring at us.  I was like WHAT you ain't never seen YELLOW before?

So anyway class starts...and the teacher is actually one of the sorority girls.  ANd so she and like half the class start to put on their DANCE sneakers...like the black ones with a split sole.  I'm like are you KIDDING me.  you do NOT need jazz shoes to do hip hop.  but anyhow, we do the warm up, during which the girls start like doing to booty dance (they did it rather badly might I add...typical white girl dancing)...and during the hip flex excercise (looks kinda scandalous to begin with...the one where you're on your back with your legs bent and you push your hip up), the girls start like THRUSTING like crazy and laughing....i was like COME ON....finkin HO BAGS.

So we start learning the routine...and it's NOT HIP HOP.  It's like PURE jazz...like broadway style jazz.  Apparently, they're putting on a show sometime, and these gym classes are their rehearsal time for the show.  SO they're doing it to Cell Block Tango from Chicago.  The teacher is actually pretty good...you can tell she took jazz class as a kid.  But the rest of the class is HORRIBLE...and they got put in the front just cuz they're FRIENDS with the teacher.  The moves are pretty basics...even my friends who've never danced before got it pretty easily...but the white girls, who've been taking this class for years were SOOO bad. SOOOOOOOOOOO bad.

So i think i'll continue going...cuz the dance is kinda cute...and because I'm a big ham and i wanna perform on stage. hahahahahaha.  but let's see how long i can stand these girls......we were there for over an hour and not one came over to say hi to us.  SNOBS.
