i totally feel as if it's the weekend already.. well which it kind of is.. because it's 4pm on friday... but i feel like if the weekend's already over.. most likely because i have been playing all week.. it is my vacation. but i guess i deserve it.. hahah.. well as long as i pass my quiz.. and finish this class. shooot. so yea... last tuesday.. after my class i packed and left for berzerkley... sakura dropped me off at the airport, which was pretty empty.. yay.. and i got a good sead. whoo hoo.. and slept on the whole plane ride. much needed sleep.

got to angelee's, we ate dinner and tried to find a movie to watch, but ended just walking around the streets a little bit, walked into a bar that was way crowded, and then hung out a bit at the chia frat which is dan's frat house (theta delta chi) and saw brendan too. it's fun to see old high school friends. then we went back to ben's (angelee's bf) and chilled and ate cookies and ice cream.. mmmm... we spent the night there because we were all so wiped, and the next day went to La Note for breakfast/brunch. it was pretty good.. it was like this french breakfast place.. it was a bit pricey. but they had good desserts, which made it all worth it.. i got profiteroles.. mmmm. we got back to ben's and watched some tv, and we all took naps... it was kind of embarassing for me cuz i fell asleep on their couch and when i woke up both of the roomies were sitting there.. oops.. sorry. i just felt bad that this strange girl was sleeping on their couch and they couldn't watch tv .. although i'm sure i would have slept through it. that night one of ben's friends came into town and we went to this irish pub place called beckett's which was complete with a transgender singer and her gay saxaphone playing companion named "clarity" she/he did a bunch of cover songs and we watched for a bit after we finished our food. went to thalassa for some drinks and video games/pinball. all really chill stuff. i think the highlight of the night was when this guy was hitting on angelee, and asked her for her number, and she was like.. oh sorry.. i'm with my boyfriend. and then he was like.. "oh it's cool.. i have a girlfriend.. ya know..." (riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight) and then when she went to the bathroom.. he asks me.. "so what's the deal with bianca.. does she really have boyfriend.. or did she just say that?" and i was all like.. "umm you mean angelee?" and he's like.. "uh.. yea" right.. smooth guy. what a loser. but it was a good story. that night i stayed at angelee's sorority house. we had to drag a mattress up a flight of stairs for me to sleep.. yuk. but i'm sure it was much more comfortable than the hardwood floor.. so i guess it was all right. next day angelee's family came and we all trekked over to the greek theater for her graduation. my shoes did not like the walking and the hills much and i have two huge blisters to prove it. but it was alright.. i got a good sun tan.. and it was sooo hot, and a little boring (when they were reading the 400 some odd names) but i think the most uncomfortable part was the hard jagged rock/concrete seats. definitely not fun. but it was cute.. because when you write your name of the card.. they gotta read what you write.. so most of the names were pretty normal, some cute ones came in.. like jane "i love you mom" doe... that was cute. some guys tried to be funny and did like kyle boller, or george walker bush. made heads turn, esp. for the kyle boller one. and the cutest of them all was this guy who was like james "marry me patty" johnson (i don't know if the guy's name is right).. but it was so cute to have your proposal in your grad ceremony.. in front of all those people.. not super romantic because there was no like down on one knee (i'm sure it came later).. but the girl in front of him start spazzin out..so we think it was her.. it was way cute. i want to know if she accepted though. hahaha.. it would have be interesting (in that sad car wreck kind of way) if she rejected him in front of all those people .. like went through the line again and was like patty "no i will not marry you" piers.. or something like that.. (the last name is made up).. so yea.. that was the most interesting parts of the graduation, second to angelee's name being called of course. a little reception afterwards at the base of the campanile, punch and cookies :) and then dinner at this really nice froofy fancy italian place called oliveto's. dessert was to die for. i got strawberry shortcake.. it was goooood. definitely worth it. mmm.. that night hung out a bit.. rested our stuffed stomachs and then just hung out at ben's apt and then at his frat house.

today while angelee is packing.. i get to hang out with alice. hehe.. i'm on her computer while she's watching korean soap operas. haha.. we ate deep dish pizza at zachary's (my world is so centered around food) and came back to just chill. it's too hot to do anything outside.. esp since going to the beach isn't an option.. boo. alice is trying to convince me to go to a stripclub tonight.. and female stripclub.. riiiiiight. we'll see.. hahah.. but that's my exciting berkeley trip. i'm leaving tomorrow... which i was thinking maybe i should leave later, like hitch a ride with beth and ryan, but i should probably go back early so i can at least get some work done.. since i played all week. boo.. i'm missing a big bbq tomorrow though. crappy. dah well. i'll see how things work out. but it's been nice to get away from the craphole that is my apt. hehehe.
