That’s right… school is already back in session. And of course, what day does school begin, not on a Monday like a sane person would expect, but on a Wednesday. I guess I was ready to go back, but come on! I’m used to having several weeks of break, not just two. And to make things worse, Spring Break won’t be much better.
Weekly roll:
Monday was “The Day After.” I cleaned up the place, worked for awhile, then waited for my Mike and Bri to get into town. I was originally going to go to dinner with Sunny and them, but they got in too late, and Sunny was already going to Franci’s to watch a movie. I too was going to go, but after dinner. Mike and Bri got in, checked out my place, then we headed to pick Sunny up and drop her off at Franci’s. After that, we went to Pluto’s for some yummy salads. Shakeh called me while we were eating and told me that Kolby had just left (this was around 2100), so her and Ninette would join us at my place. In the meantime, Mike, Bri, and I went back to my place to watch some South Park. Shakeh and Ninette showed up about half an hour later. I assisted with introductions, then we sat and talked for another half an hour, at which point in time Mike and Bri had to leave. The three of us remaining were all still hungry to some extent, so Shakeh and I went to In ‘N Out while Ninette took a nice nap.
Tuesday, Shakeh, Ninette, and I hung out. We went to Posh Bagel, then went back to Shakeh’s to help Ninette pack up her stuff. I went home and worked while they packed, then we all met up again and went to the movie theatres on F street to watch Happy Feet. After the movie, we went to Kabul for some Afghani, then headed to the airport to drop off Ninette.
Wednesday school started… ugh! I walked with Shakeh to campus, then biked to the ARC. I worked out for an hour or so, then headed off to my classes for the usual instruction. Racquetball seems like it might be fun, volleyball definitely will be (there were enough people that we just played pick-up), and I don’t really know about basketball. After class, I went home, showered, and then got some work done. I had a meeting to go to, so I biked back to campus. Shakeh was out of class and we met at the MU for food. After we ate, we went back to my place for a bit to rest and get some work done, before Shakeh had to go to class. I dropped her off at her class, then went home, worked for awhile, and came back to pick her up.
Thursday I had my other classes, soccer, badminton, and tumbling. I’m really excited about tumbling! It seems like it’s going to be a ton of fun, and I might learn some cool stuff. After class I went home and showered, then met up with Shakeh and a bunch of the international students for lunch. I walked Shakeh to her class, then headed over to my weekly meeting. I worked for a little bit after the meeting, then went to my Volume Visualization class. Once that was out, I went home and ate. Shakeh and I went to Delta of Venus where we met up with the international students again. We hung out for awhile, then went home to get some sleep.
Friday I had the wonderful experience of getting another filling put in my mouth. I went home and did some work, then met Shakeh at her place after she got out of class. We were going to go to the mall, but neither of us really felt like it, so we just chilled instead. Meaning we grabbed some In ‘N Out, went to my place, and watched a bunch of South Park and worked. I went bowling with Abhi and the gang that night while Shakeh stayed and worked at my place. We had to wait almost two hours to get a lane, but we had some fun once we finally got bowling.
Saturday, Shakeh and I just worked a bunch until I had to leave for SFO. Rachel was due to arrive at SFO around 1830, so I headed out around 1630. I drove over the San Mateo bridge, which I must say is the longest bridge I can recall ever being on. I thought the Bay Bridge might be, but it is split in two by Treasure Island, and even with that, I think the San Mateo Bridge might be longer. Anyways, I picked up Rachel, refueled, then began the trek back home to Davis. We got in, dropped Rachel’s stuff off, then spent almost an hour getting her to Camran’s place. It wouldn’t have been nearly that hard, except that we couldn’t get ahold of anyone who knew where he lived. After I dropped Rachel off, Shakeh and I had dinner, got ready, and then headed to Chiara’s party at Miles’ place. We stayed there for about an hour, but I was way too tired, and I didn’t want to fall asleep driving back.
Sunday, my parents came into town. We walked to Posh Bagel, then I took them on a small walk around the campus. After we finished with the campus, we walked back through downtown again to look at some of the local shops, then headed home to meet Shakeh. Once we were all gathered, we went back into town to eat at Chef’s Market. What happens though? The damn place is gone! Completely disappeared altogether. We instead went to Woodstock’s and had some good pizza. After that, my parent’s took off, and Shakeh and I hung out at my place and worked until 2100, when we stopped to watch some TV.
