it’s official. i don’t know what i want. this is a lot of fun. and i think that saying that i want anything more definite than maybe right now would just be lying, especially because of all of the reservations i’ve managed to raise in my head. sooo it’s probably better to just not talk about it. i finally think that you have the right approach here.
in more exciting news, i made new friends! yay for meeting new people who also don’t have the energy for the “so where you from?” conversation…
I also met a woman in my program who graduated from USC in 2007. Since this is Anjali’s year, I thought she might know her… so I asked, “oh, where you involved in any-” and she interrupted me to say “sororities?”
….. that is not what i was going to say. i was going to say “student organizations” (of course). and she said, “oh i was involved in some other stuff!” “like what?” “Pepsters.”
…. and so of course, she does not know Anj, and the douche-bagery associated with USC has just been reinforced in my head. I mean, I’m sure she’s a nice person, and at the very least her heart is in the right place (she’s doing the exact same program at TC as me, after all), but if her experience at USC consisted of sororities and Pepsters, i’m pretty sure we’re not on the same page… yet.
And on the subject of cool moms, our new roommate (subletter) has an awesome mom, with whom i talked extensively about women’s collectives. she walked into my room and saw the Sublime poster on my wall (yes, i took it from the house… i’m sorry if you miss it, but please know that it makes my life complete) and said “Hey! I have that shirt!”
she has this poster as a shirt. yes.
so cheers for awesome subletters (and amazing roommates – I would be so lost here without Anj). and also for a magical saturday, that involved an inordinate amount of “firsts.” : )
