what a week. work was due friday but forte said tuesday was okay so now conference week has extended itself like a bad cold. actually maybe more like...ebola. my computer has decided to crap out on me two weeks short of making it through our entire college experience together. i have submerged it completely in water, cracked the case, replaced the hard drive twice, replaced the exterior shell, and have dropped it countless times...its been so good and forgiving to me. annicka got a new powerbook pro this summer but i refused to my parent's chagrin. i love this goddamn computer and its tearing me apart to think i have to give it up. today my mom told me to just take a cab to the westchester mall and buy a new one, and i was freaking out, but then i shook the computer in frustration and it suddenly turned on. it's like a real person...
last night was weird. katie's cousin terry is visiting from umich, so that was really hilariously great - hes in a frat. everyone was pretty taken with him - he and jiddy are the funniest dancing partners EVER. i couldve watched that for hours..actually i did. we danced in jiddys room and it was fun. i also spilled beer ALL OVER jiddy's desk and computer, and of course freaked out. she's ALLERGIC to beer, on top of the wetness and beeriness. oh god. i hope to god i didnt ruin anything.
im very excited to be done with work so we can get on to the business of shopping for graduation clothes. unfortunately sarah lawrence makes graduating seniors wear CAPS AND GOWNS for graduation -- wtf?? fucking tacky. not like the academy, where we all had to wear the same shade of white and were led up towards the quad by four bagpipers. oh no, not like that. i guess for sarah lawrence we'd all have to be wearing fishnet and be led up to the lawn by that hookah kid. typing that sentance actually has actually got me feeling physically ill.
one really exciting thing that i found out today is that my dad got reservations for the night of graduation at AQUAVIT! oh yes! its the coolest restaraunt ever, check out the website: aquavit
its by scandinavia house, and its all arne jacobsen chairs and pH lamps and they specialize in herring! oh my god how did my parents think of it, its the most perfect idea ever. they launched their own cranberry aquavit this yr. i hope we actually get to drink some real danish aquavit at dinner but my grandma is coming so it's unlikely. i dunno though she's a white anglo saxon protestant, and we all like hard liqour right?? that rule goes double for us since were both wasps and a swedes (annicka and kelsey, get it???). im just so excited, i dont know if i should wear my black puffy skirt dress or get something new. i havent actually had a fancy enough occasion to wear that one yet but it seems more christmas-y. everyone wants to do a dress shopping day next week so i guess i'll find something then. i need to get my ideas down on paper cuz i'll be taking insane amounts of pictures and i want them to be only marginally embarassing.
