last 48 hours

dusk at the Berkeley Marina

Stock taking after a very American summer.

Let's see I did NOT:
go to frat parties
smoke weed
play beer pong
go to a club (had a failed attempt but my roomie/floor mates got sent back cos they were underaged o.O)
surfed on the Pacific Ocean
hooked up with a foreigner
skydived (damn this one I really wanted to but I ran out of time and $)
have a cookout (too cold)

but I DID:
go on a road trip
ate out on the greenest lawns on campus
watched a few great sunsets
attempted to watch a meteor shower after trekking
visited SF city alot of times and am convinced it's damn romantic
watched Barcelona play Chivas in a stadium on the Bay
went outlet shopping
pulled jackpot slots
went to Castro which is a gay street in the gayest capital of the world. 'Nuff said.
get checked out by angmoh dudes with obvious Asian fetish
dissed by frat boys when I tried to hitchhike
complimented by a struggling rap artist ( I KNOW, friends, y'all are probably LOLing now)
watched a freestyle rap friendly on the BART train
met a few crazies
talked to a homeless man who asked why I was holding a Barca flag
drove through ghettos
and... skipped classes because the day was just too darn beautiful to be holed up indoors

Most amazing time ever. When I board that plane on Sat in the early AM, I'm gonna smile widely at the memories and maybe cry a little. The silly girl that I am.
