life as a Vegan

i'm feeling mad nostalgic about the summer. i keep feeling like this is a short break from the summer and then i shall return to the nothing days of living at a's house and just kind of being like one of those floaty feathery things. thats what the summer reminded me of. being that floating thing and just kind of being warm and lovely. working at beaver camp seems like years in the past. we had an epic summer. one of these days when i dont have a paper and reading to do (like, never any more since school is tomorrow) i think i will recap some of the summer highlights.

but yea, the weather is great here because its been like 60-70s and like some cloud and some sun which is great weather but its just kind of a shock after just coming from like 80-90s, it makes it feel like summer was a long time ago.

yesterday was the welcome back dinner for all the upperclassman (even though most havent even moved in yet) and so they had like a marimba band or somethign play at dinner.

thats them somewhere else. for us they played sllightly more upbeat and so all the freshman had a dance party to it and it was so lanky because there is no way to dance to that without just flailing. that was really fun because we were all dancing and clapping and singing along and it was great.

then i went back to some peoples rooms and played cards until it was time to go to a comedy performance "sex signals" that was like quite funny in the first half then the second half turned awkward and weird because they made a bizarre transition into PEOPLE RAPE YOU AT COLLEGE it was just bizarre. then i went back to watch a movie with some people in the lounge and it was great and i had to not fall asleep but that is all i ever do when i watch movies so it was hard work. but my friend brought some amazing tea from home (shes from montana ... hehehehehe) and it was DELICIOUS.

the night before i went to an open mic night at the student art place and it was really cool except for one guy that like did a 30 minute lecture and demonstration on the fife. it was a little excessive.

today i bought my books (OUTRAGEOUS PRICE DON'T EVEN BOTHER GOING TO COLLEGE BECAUSE THE BOOKS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE) and i cried the entire time because books are expensive.
then i went into portland to do a scavenger hunt with some people. we thought we were last so we didnt even bother moving at a legitimate pace but it turns out we were fifth so we still won the prize of a dozen donuts at this really cool donut place. the donuts were like donuts so i didn't enjoy them that much but the atmosphere of the place was really cool and i would love to work there at some pointttttttt.

tonight im going to an outdoors backpacking thing info session to see about future trips which i think will be fun. then its BINGO! night... where i figure not too many people will go so maybe ill win a lot becuase they give away dorm decorations which would be lovely to have.

when i get back for thanksgiving we're going out to like RIBS MEAT MEAT MEAT restaurant because they only believe is meat a little bit here. and i believe in meat A LOT. so i'm having a difficult relationship with the meatlessness.

you know you want to send me mail
