hello blog!!!!
sorry about not having posted in ages! i feel guilty because i check other people's blogs regularly, yet never post myself. shame on me.
well,
life has been spectacular lately. i don't even know where to begin!

in fact, it's a little overwhelming thinking of how to recap that past couple of weeks on here. so i'll try to get the most important parts.

Jia moved out. she didn't tell me, or the RA, or anyone for that matter. one sunday i came home from the gym, and all her stuff was packed. all she said was "i'm moving."
it was a strange goodbye.

so i invited olimpija to be my roommate. she was having major issues with her last roommate and she's pretty much my bestie over here, so i figured, what the heck!? i knew if i were having problems with my roommate, she would do the same thing.
inviting her to my room was a wise move!
EVERYTHING is happy now! she brings flowers home that she picks around school and puts them on the desk. we dance to fun Balkan music and get dressed up to go out now. we chat. we watch sex and the city and eat ice cream. we study. i looooooove having her as a roomie! it's amazing.

and our room is the most adorable thing ever now! it has SO MUCH MORE character. look at our desks:


isn't it adorable?! i love it!
i love coming home now. i actually call this dorm a home now. haha sillyz.

umm...okay so there was that.
OH!
my cousin came to town this weekend too! i looove her.
I HAD ONE OF THE BEST WEEKENDS OF MY FREAKING LIFE.
i don't want to say everything that happened. i've told basically everyone that reads this blog already and i don't want to get others jealous. :P

but seriously, you should envy my coolness.
listen to pink martini: (this is a big hint of my weekend)
do you like them? i do! (i sort of fell in love with martin, one of the purcussionists this weekend. lol he's cute and tiny and HILARIOUS. if anything, i'd like to become his bestie.)
i don't know how to post youtube videos so hopefully this works:

that's one of my least favorite songs by them, but there ya go.

oh! and oli and i got a FREE HOTEL ROOM. downtown!!!!
so awesome. i went to bed at 5 am. we felt so cool. it was a deluxe sweet. no big deal or anything.





hmmm WHAT ELSE!
oh i'm in love!
also no big deal.
the fates have been working out for me and today, after almost five months of seeing him seemingly EVERYWHERE (!!!) i got him to laugh. that's a big step.

the next time i see him somewhere in this city maybe i'll even talk to him. :P
but don't you think it's strange that i keep running into him throughout different parts of the city? i do!


classes have been going well too!


OH AND OAXACA.


i forgot about that too!
this fall, i am applying to study in oaxaca mexico. it's not official yet, but omg, pray that they accept me!


ahhhh MAN THE SWEET LIFE.

now to go watch glee, read ts eliot, and work out.
strange combinations are the story of my life.
