Today was reasonably wonderful.

I went out and met [livejournal.com profile] jarne for the first time ever, which went totally well, mostly because neither of us was actually an internet predator hell bent on raping the other. We wandered around the COOP and all around Harvard Square area, including finding a playground and being a bad influence on the small children. (Well, we did tell them not to imitate us.)

NTS: I need to start writing in BehindTheWalls again.

But yeah. It was really nice --it felt a bit like it does when I'm wandering around with Veronica or Katters. Threre's just this sense of friendship and it's all quite good. It's lovely exploring the world with Magus or the Boston D&D, but sometimes it's really really nice to have friends your own age(ish). Part of why I want Veronica to come up here so bad. I miss her. (And yes, it is undying. ;-) )

He abandoned me about two and a half hours of wandering, so I was forced to go sit in the COOP for an hour and a half until it was time for me to go meet up with Dave and Diane. Oh no, the horror! *strikes a very dramatic pose*

(For those who don't know, the COOP is a really nice big bookstore. And pronounced as to rhyme with "soup" as opposed to "co-op", which I think is weird. Also, it had a "Dykes to Watch Out For" book in the GLBT section. Soyeah. I totally spent most of the time reading that and not spending any money. Shockingly enough, no one cared!)

After that, I met up with Dave and Diane, and they took me out to Wagamama (Good asian fuds) and bought me ice cream and pocky! at assorted stores during wandering. So that was very nice indeed.

ALSO! Ohmygod. The Million Year Picnic, which is a really spift comic store not far from Harvard Square has a DOCTOR WHO COMIC BOOK! Like a big hardback book comic anthology. WITH ROSE! augugugugugugugug!

Yeah, I really really really want it. ALSO, I need to check and find out which Sonic Screwdriver [livejournal.com profile] disc_sophist has, because Newbury Comics sells them. <3

Alsoalso, moment of the day number one was when Dave and Diane gave me a ride home and I got to talking to their son who is quite a bit younger then me. He mentioned staying up all night, and I told him what prom was and that he should stay up all night then. So then he said something along the lines of "Well, when I'm the same age as you, you'll come to my house and we'll go to prom together." Ohman, so funny.

Moment of the day number two will come when I toss the contents of my camera onto Seren. Ask Jarne --it involves squirrels. Evil, evil squirrels.

See you lot later

MOOP!

P.S: School library suprisingly does not suck. It looks like it does, until you go upstairs into the Juvinile fiction section. They have A FULL DOZEN Margaret Mahy books in there INCLUDING a copy of "The Pirates Mixed Up Voyage" (*raises an eyebrow pointedly at her evil clone*) and all her other books that take place there and WHEE!

I had to find it out the Hard Way, or: How am I supposed to get a 4.0 if no one tells me anything important?

Advice #1: The day, or the hour, or a few minutes before your classes, go and find all the classrooms so you know where they are, and whether or not their in the right building. This way, you won't have to arrive at your class juuust on time, only to then run halfway across the campus to get to where it was moved.*

Advice #2: Look around in your library. No, I mean REALLY look around. Find out if there's more to it, hidden up a flight of stairs. Like a giant youth fiction section with a pop-up book of Alice in Wonderland in it.

Advice #3: Steal food from the meal hall. No, not *actual* stealing. But grab that extra apple that you know you're just not going to be hungry enough to eat. It means that when you miss meals, you'll have something at home to make up for it.

Plus, if you steal a banana, you can get people to ask if that really IS a banana in your pocket...

Advice #3a: Throw away the fruit that's been sitting on your desk a month and has gone bad. Please.

*************

Soyeah. I am apparently writing a book to keep me sane. Not the first time that's happened.

*(((The real pain in the ass about this particular situation was that the English class that I thought was in University Hall was actually RIGHT ACROSS THE HALL from my Statistics class. Which are both three flights of stairs down from my dorm room. )))

INOTHERNEWS!

Katters, how much of your real name am I allowed to use in ST&J? Because the bit I'm writing very much has me being all semi-scoldy and whatthehell, and it works better if I'd use your name.

That's all for now. Off to lunch. (See rule three. *grins*)
