slim jims

okay. so the new york trip was pretty much a blast. i loved the places we went to, i love the friends i made, i LOVED the food i stuffed into my face and i love yale. no, i love almost everything about new haven.

it's grrrreat to be back! the only thing i'm sad about is that i didn't do much shopping over there. dad gave me like 700 dollars to spend there, a hundred of that dedicated to food, and i came back with 450. i was unpacking my bags, and realised that half the stuff i brought back were for other people. and the stuff i had gotten for myself, were cheap bargains. I SHOULD JUST HAVE GONE MAD THERE. then again, there was hardly enough time to do the things i wanted and to go the places we wanted. chasing our stories and visiting the various places, the metropolitan omgomg, the museum of natural history OMGOMG, new york times, conde nast omgomg, the mtv studios. the rain fucking up the first couple of days didnt' help much. and i'm pretty proud of myself and all of us that we'd managed to find our way around nyc all by ourselves, with the help of a map of course. mighty mighty proud.

things i have to do now that im back

1. i was in jb with mom and dad and they were talking about their school life there, and 'this used to be a huge rugby field' and 'that was where your grandmother used to live'. and i've made a resolution with my father that i'll try my best to enrol myself in a jb school for like a week and see how it's like there. i really want to experience it.

2. cut back on my gluttony and start training again.

3. i so want to be a racer. what wouldnt i give to race around tracks.
