A GOOD THURSDAY

Who'd have thought it possible? Thursday is often my busiest day, packed with biochemistry lab where we have no idea what will be happening, to Chinese, to Genetics Lab. The genetics lab folks are on pure crack. It's rare thing to be in a lab with people having fun, and I am very thankful for this when it happens. We got out early today, so wheeee!!

Ok, so first off, ALICE ROCKS! We had a nice long chat last night, about all the horrible things that have happened this spring to both of us. She is a cool chica who's enough like me for me to understand on some level. I wish I talked to her more often. In Malaysia, we (Me, Alice, and Dena) were so damn close, and back at school I just see them by chance. I need more girlfriends.

Secondly, Nick is in Las Vegas showing off his portfolio and says he will bring me a present!!! TREATS FOR ME!! Hooray for good friends in strange distant lands!

Thirdly, Dave D. has made some modifications on his journal, and you can now gaze at his lovely face via his webcam. Now you can know what I was missing? eh, that was dumb of me to say, oh well.

Fourthly, ummm. .. somehow I have run out of word steam here. Dave and I are no longer depressed. It's a relief. Nothing feels so good and true after being depressed as just NOT being depressed. Being happy seems dangerous, being in love even more so. But to just exist without despairing---holy shit is it nice.

I had a nice time perusing my other's Dave's webjournal, The Story. Man, I thought I typed alot! I have my own acronym in the epic: SLFGH (Still Likeable Former Girlfriend of the Hero). Guess who the hero is. Should I feel privledged? Who knows. Here's my little nugget of joy for the day:

Although many readers may first think of this document as unfounded banter, one should consider the alternatives offered. After all, if Freud was considered brilliant for thinking that all actions revolved around the mouth, anus, and penis, does it not seem just as likely that all actions revolve around Dave?
