Meep!
At Pratt library (nice!) Have to pee again.
Turns out Rick didn't forget to email, they're just not getting through. Which is kinda weird, cuz both accounts are Hotmail.
John wasn't in my irish class, so I have no idea where I know him from. He... uh... writes rap. Yeah. Uh. In class. And I'm not saying anything bad about rap,nopie coco not me, and I'm sure he's very talented, and all... but I had to bite my tongue to keep from laughing. But he's nice. All depressed cuz he's out of Harry Potter til next year. Aren't we all?
I had a weird-ass dream about Michi. He had joined the army. His hair was all Tom-Cruise-long, and kinda slicked back. Weeeirdd...
Really hafta pee.

Ok, so I did this survey for semiotics on what kind of consumer I am. Did it twice, so apparently, I'm both an Aimless Dependent and a Social Hedonist.

As you can see... neither of these descriptions really works for me... So, in fact, that was a completely screwed up survey you probably just did. Ha ha. Don't worry, I did it too. Twice.
