Moving out of the dorms

Last night we were drunkenly packing so we could move out in the morning. My stuff was out in the hall and I realized my track bike was missing. We figured out that my friend’s friend had taken it and we were able to track him down and stall him until the university police arrived. He admitted to taking my bike and our friend’s iphone. He also told us where he stashed my bike and we found it along with the phone. He’s facing some serious charges because the bike is worth over a grand (it’s the only expensive thing I own, other than this laptop and my camera) plus the charges for the iphone theft. Once that ordeal was over we continued packing until we were ready to move out.

Nate (one of my roommates) left and Grant (my other roommate) and I hung out, trying to figure out how we’d survive for the next week. Hours passed and eventually we were the only students left in our dorm unit. Our Resident Director realized we weren’t leaving and offered her spare room for storage. We moved our belongings to her place and then quickly stuffed our backpacks before she drove us to the BART station in her convertible. She gave us four bottles of liquor. Grant and I caught the BART as far south as it would take us. Our friends picked us up and drove us to a lake, where we snuck past a fence, climbed under a bridge, and found some pretty rad graffiti. Now we’re back at Matteo’s house, playing a drinking game while watching Jumanji.    

I just finished my first year at UC Berkeley!

It’s hard to believe how much I’ve learned in just two semesters here or how much I’ve laughed with this collection of former strangers that I’ve been forced to share a building with. I just turned in my last paper of the semester and I’m still coming down from that high that I get from working until the last possible minute (I didn’t realize how nerdy that sounded until I typed it out). Now I’ve got twenty-four hours to pack up all my stuff and move out of this tiny room that I’ve grown so fond of. I can probably pack up everything in an hour but taking down all these glow-in-the-dark stars is going to take forever! I should probably figure out where I’m going to sleep for the next week. But first, where’s my rum?

“So my amazing daughter, Emma, turned 5 last month, and I had been searching everywhere for new-creative inspiration for her 5yr pictures. I noticed quite a pattern of so many young girls dressing up as beautiful Disney Princesses, no matter where I looked 95% of the “ideas” were the “How to’s” of  how to dress your little girl like a Disney Princess…We chose 5 women (five amazing and strong women), as it was her 5th birthday but there are thousands of unbelievable women (and girls) who have beat the odds and fought (and still fight) for their equal rights all over the world

And 41% are ALL IDIOTS.
Seriously the dumbest “controversy” in history,
I will never understand the point of all of this.
Oh yes, its another Republican distraction strategy.
Hey Congress, why don’t you stfu about this nonsense that serves NO PURPOSE and get back to doing your fucking job? 
Our country is still in the shits and I’m tired of your bull shit.

Jon Stewart did a great segment on this
