| You Belong in London | 
You belong in London, but you belong in many cities... Hong Kong, San Francisco, Sidney. You fit in almost anywhere.
And London is diverse and international enough to satisfy many of your tastes. From curry to Shakespeare, London (almost) has it all! |
yesssssssss

new plans for weekend: destroy savings by taking steps to fix life:
best buy - laptop to the geek squad. $60 to figure out what happened + how much to fix. its worth it after everything else ive tried.
give the verizon store a visit. see if they can transfer me over to my bros old phone. not likely. worth the asking.
LASTEST DEVELOPMENT: after visit to verizon store, walk a block or two to lenscrafters. yes thats right, i just stepped on my glasses and snapped the frame.
now you know when you see me without them. try to act like its nothing new, i dont want to explain it. no it isnt funny.
i have rehearsal now. woo BASSIX. olympics after. good thing the couch is close to the tv. |

this is gonna get old real quick, but im not done bitching yet.
its christmas. new years. annually.
every year now, at least since ive left for college ive annually fallen completely to shit. every year come the snow and vacation time all the little trinkets and gadgets that dictate daily life disappear dissolve fuckup shatter shutdown or just fucking suck. wallets keys phones glasses atm cards licenses ids computers. all the little change collected from happy relatives around wreaths, trees and eggnog laden tables goes into that piteous account called 'repairing my shit life'.
dont text me ever. nothing shows up on the fucking screen, it just glows white. i can receive calls, and if i have your number written down on my little fucking notecard-phonebook im creating then i can call you. comment w/ numbers so i can add you to my joyous list. i cant afford a new phone. upgrade is in june.
laptop. whothefuckknows. i havent even started my job and i can see all money is spoken for through probably april. who wants to join me in early january on the 2nd job hunt. itll be fun i swear.
my fucking nose and throat and eyes itch 24/7 from buddy and brownie. i want to shave and plastic wrap them.
cant wait to see all of your shining faces. |

i am created for havoc
home for one week.
cell phone lost and found. lost. found in aunts yard, wet from snow. prayers it will function. dont even remember bringing it.
wallet lost(?). license/insurance card/school id/debit card. cancelled card for safety. need a new school id and license anyway. insurance card is useless.
laptop finally stopped turning on. gonna call dell early morning tomorrow to avoid the post-christmas rush. im pretty sure its a hardware problem, just replace the contact sheet under the top row of buttons and it might work. like i really know anything.
and so i am without license, cell, and laptop now. hopefully temporary. it is interesting tho, that it only happened now i have nothing left to do. i needed the laptop to finish my "portfolio". i did, printed at kinkos. laptop worked once or twice more, then gone. no real need to drive anywhere, tho i suppose it would be nice. cell sucks. who loses it outside?!?!
i really feel like something is workin against me. cell phone i dont remember bringing turns up outside my aunts house, when all i did was walk from the car in, then later from the car out. christmas eve. use my id to get a drink at the 99pub. thats the lsat i see it. could be in gregs or monicas car. but neither. no holes in any pockets.
i am such a face. |

just for those who didnt know, i switched my flight to Sunday at 650 and grabbed a hotel room for Sat-Sun. took lots of walks, shopped for the fam, saw all the awesome museums, had a great last day. finallz made it back to the room at 1 and was in good shape to stay up 4hrs and grab a cab to Amerigo Vespucci airport and get the hell out of italy.
1. no alarm clock in room
2. comfy bed
3. ben is stupid
so alas, i fell asleep and woke up in a frenzy of panic a bit past 7. as my fellow would-be travelers flew over the alps i threw my shit in my bags, probably breaking some gifts and leaving stray socks or undershirts as unintentional gifts to the hotel, fine establishment as it was.
threw myself at the mercy of the lufthansa ticket lady. she offered me a 200 dollar (168 euro) change of reservation. ILL TAKE IT. so i grab the next flight to frankfurt at 10am, with intentions of taking the Monday 1030 flight to boston same one i wouldve taken on sunday.
spend the day perusing the city, which pretty much sucks. at last i found everyone at the christmas market, packed. had some cranberry flavored cider beer stuff. some bratwurst. lots of starbucks. walked by the opera house and, why not, spent 11euro on a student ticket to a nice classical concert. happened upon the redlight district as i walked back to the train station (its 1 block away, if anyone is planning a trip to frankfurt). was offered many 'hot' women. passed.
alas now i am in an internet cafe awaiting the last train to the airport, as i dont really wanna get there too early. saw several 24hr restaurants in the underground shopping area at the terminals. im starving myself at the moment so i can stay at one for a while. bought a nice magazine.
thats all i have for now. will ttyl.
ciao, i mean gutten-something. |

CFoB:none. stahvin.
im currently waiting for my PDFs to load on the mac (fuckin Macs) cuz the printer for the pcs is down. of course. and its pretty much late. and its absolute shit. as per usual. i hate how bad i am at school.
got a place to stay for the few days im here. gonna hit up all the museum and churches i didnt see while i was here. which is all of them. im a sad sorry bitch.
gotta upgrade my portfolio too, like whoa. got an intereview on the 21st at Ann Beha, a firm ive been eyeing since freshmen year and i really wanna work at. but now that i wrote about it i wont get it. 'knocks on wood'
brb. pics uploaded. gotta print.
j/k the girl need s to finish first. ive got a few more minutes.
so projs are crap. apartment is go. phone still lost.
i will miss it. i want more than anything to be home. i cant even fathom missing it here, but its a part of me def now. wish i couldve shared it with more of you, i cant imagine what it wouldve been without all those already here. i dont want to miss it, just remember. eh, bo.
this will be the best christmas ever. the most complete withdrawal from everything ive ever had. the sweetest reunions. i am completely divorced from the materialistic holiday, and can appreciate every sweet moment of the break from LIFE.
ok my mind is too scattered right now. too much shit to finish.
ill ttyl. soon, in face. |

CFoB:sausage, skilleted in peppers onions garlic and BUTTER, with a side of (nasty) polenta. i did not know what polenta is. now i am sad i know. it was not good.
one final is pushed back to when it should have been due, so this week is now entirely possible, but it also means this weekend wont be as care-free as i had anticipated. after Dante is done, im not gonna care too much about the written final for that class, and i should survive the semester. mayb even with B's.
i have enough time to 'finish' my dante presentation/paper now. so naturally im not doing it until later.
my friends are all cooler than me. yes, you are. every one of you.
i just shopped for the last (real) time at Il Centro. my supermercato. not sad, but thought id share. its the beginning of the lasts, and its a mixed emotion kinda thing.
step1: find corner to sell body for good price.
step2: survive extra days in florence. (...and beyond if i get a good customer night at the corner [see above])
i might be able to stay in some apartment some friend of my friend's friend is already subletting but wont be there over break. doesnt sound promising, but def worth an effort.
luggage is a bitch. hotels are expensive. hostels are sketchy with this much luggage. repeat from beginning.
somebody ask andrewjohnson why Dooling and Co. hasnt emailed me back.
lisas mom is fun. so is yours.

CFoB:remnants of La Mexicana panino in my teeth
its raining alot here. good thing i bought that 2 euro umbrella. its rackety.
finals are intense. ive pretty much gotten through one of them, this book we have to make as a class for europ. arch. seminar. ive submitted my share of the bullshit and just have so proof-read some other peoples crap. easy.
studios i think i can handle, but theyll be interesting seeing how i havent really used a 3D program in a while. that might require some long hours, but at least i can do that in all-nighters, assuming my comp holds up.
( Read more... )
otherwise, im glad i bought my jacket, b/c its cold. the apartment stays at a miserable 14/15 degrees C, i dont know how much that is in F, but its cold.
i tried to switch my flight to the earlier date, but its full. so im trying to get one out of rome, milan, or pisa cuz i cant afford to stay until the 20th, nor do i know what to do w/ my luggage.
lost my phone too. its on silent b/c i think i lost it at the theater last night when we saw Harry Potter (so grood) but they dont have it in the lost and found. so i cant call it b/c, silent.
so worse comes i have no phone for the last (crucial) 3 weeks and lose my deposit (like 60-70, i forget)
wanna go hoooome. |

ok, we're gonna tarantino this one. hundreds of pics. over a grand rape to my bank account. british flag undies.
( lets go back... )
its monday now. weird to have the feeling of coming down from such a good time but not really coming back to home. get back into italian mode. florence is at once the regular everyday and a foreign country. its confusing. pushed some boundaries while away. new things. fun people. back to classes, got a reply for a co-op, so i gotta get on that.
hope home is great, god knows i cant wait to be back. |

my office is quiet, i dont think any of you would last here.
so today was the big day. apt is held, now we need ten million dollars in the next 1-2 months.
j/k. sorta.
i never realized how easy we had it with 9 hillside. we paid half the first month and last month for a downpayment. thats it.
now we have first+last+security(wtf is that anyway)+fee. 4 months of rent up front. see my picture? thats me, lost in a jail of green. so symbolic! *angelic chorus feting the awesome symbology* im gonna have to take that sleep test...
at least we are in an awesome place. 0.5 blocks from symphony hall. very cozy(very). what more could i ask?
battle royale is always good for passing the time. i suggest you watch it with small children, for a fun afternoon of jugular splurtation.
gotta sign off before i get fired....
