Random Conversations

Haha. Al amuses me. Without a doubt we are only both very amused in this conversation because we can understand each other's tone and stuff.. like I've said before.. Al and I just bounce off of each other when it comes to humor (and even in IM).. it's great. Loooove Al's humor. The funny thing is.. we just both have reeeeally ridiculous humor sometimes in the sense that the most stupid-hypothetical-ideas are really funny to us. For example..

Al (5:35:04 PM): hey..btw...when do you find out about yoru RA thing for next year?
Lin (5:35:15 PM): the 31st now :(
Lin (5:35:23 PM): we just got an e-mail yesterday saying that it's going to be delayed
Al (5:35:29 PM): why?!
Al (5:35:32 PM): they can't do that!
Al (5:35:36 PM): oh the angst!
Lin (5:35:40 PM): I know! My mom is really pissed
Lin (5:35:47 PM): because she wants to contact the IP office
Al (5:35:51 PM): haha
Lin (5:35:53 PM): but I don't want her to until they make the choice
Lin (5:35:56 PM): not about the RA
Lin (5:36:16 PM): but the fact that they didn't really tell us about this weird-meal-plan situation
Al (5:36:37 PM): oh my god tell me about it!
Al (5:36:38 PM): i konw
Lin (5:36:40 PM): I don't know what it's like for London.. but I think it's a rip off in Florence and they added terms to the contract which I never saw initially stated
Al (5:36:40 PM): it's horrible
Lin (5:36:47 PM): and now that I'm in BUSINESS LAW
Lin (5:36:50 PM): that doesn't seem fair
Al (5:36:52 PM): HAHAHA
Lin (5:36:55 PM): so I was angry about it and told my mom
Lin (5:37:01 PM): and I don't think they have the right to do that
Lin (5:37:02 PM): so we'll see
Lin (5:37:19 PM): but obviously I can't have her calling them up when there's this choice about a position I may be selected for
Lin (5:37:35 PM): and the choice has now been turned over to the IP division specifically instead of housing
Lin (5:37:39 PM): so it complicates everything
Lin (5:37:46 PM): what do you think about the whole meal plan thing?
Lin (5:38:21 PM): what's it even like for London?
Al (5:38:28 PM): i think they should have told us about it
Al (5:38:38 PM): not lead us to believe that we would be served cafe style
Al (5:38:47 PM): and only find out htat we have to do our own things....
Lin (5:38:50 PM): yeah
Al (5:38:55 PM): and share ONE fridge with everyone
Lin (5:38:58 PM): but ours is different from you
Al (5:38:59 PM): that's ridic
Lin (5:38:59 PM): YEAH
Lin (5:39:00 PM): I know!
Lin (5:39:05 PM): That frickin ridiculous!
Lin (5:39:10 PM): They're like.. "oh just label it!"
Lin (5:39:14 PM): that's*
Al (5:39:15 PM): riiight
Al (5:39:20 PM): tha'ts gonna stop people
Al (5:39:24 PM): haha
Lin (5:39:57 PM): seriously
Lin (5:40:01 PM): and that's not enough room!
Al (5:40:05 PM): haha
Al (5:40:07 PM): io kow!
Al (5:40:20 PM): so what...we are supposed to go shopping every time we want something to eat?
Lin (5:40:20 PM): If I go out to eat and get something I really like... I usually save it.. just because I don't ALWAYS want to go out and crap
Lin (5:40:22 PM): blah
Al (5:40:23 PM): i don't think so
Al (5:40:29 PM): i know
Lin (5:40:34 PM): AND.. they don't give us ANY MONEY AT ALL fri-sun
Lin (5:40:46 PM): that's going to be like... sooo much more money that I want to spend
Lin (5:40:59 PM): I swear I'm gonna go anorexic or something
Al (5:41:09 PM): haha..not like we aren't here
Lin (5:41:14 PM): seriously
Lin (5:41:18 PM): but ultra-ano
Lin (5:41:21 PM): haha
Al (5:41:25 PM): haha
Lin (5:41:38 PM): I can do it.. but it's just not fair
Lin (5:41:49 PM): when I could be spending my money on better things in Italy
Lin (5:42:01 PM): and I'm STILL PAYING for a 1000 meal plan
Al (5:42:03 PM): like the discotechs!!
Lin (5:42:24 PM): and I DON'T CARE if they give us MASSIVE food amount for 4 days because I can't and WON'T eat that much
Lin (5:42:32 PM): so it's really really ridiculous
Al (5:42:45 PM): haha
Al (5:42:46 PM): yeah
Lin (5:42:51 PM): what am I going to do?
Lin (5:42:51 PM): lol
Lin (5:43:01 PM): hoard food for 4 days so that I'm not hungry for the other days?
Lin (5:43:03 PM): I don't think so
Al (5:43:19 PM): hah

Hmm. Interesting that my sister's boyfriend (or on-hold-boyfriend since he's moved to cali. for a little while) is always IMing me now. My sister says he thinks I'm crazy/funny. Ok?.. Guess.that's.a.good.thing.. or something.. I always love when I'm considered crazy/funny. Heh. But I guess he's nice.. guess he's just trying to get to know 'la familia' better.. and since he barely bothered getting to know me during our high school years. Oh well. We were different people.. different 'groups'.. funny how things change after high school.

Yaaay Peter IMed me. I haven't talked to him in ages.. only a few times since we first met at this "Econ camp reunion"-thing I went to in Seattle, WA over the summer.. good to hear from him again! (Now why haven't I heard from Alex?? ... I feel soooo bad because Alex and I really kept in contact for many years since we first met at HOBY - and I met Peter through Alex partially... and I always see Alex online but never get around to IMing :( ... if you read this Alex.. since I know you're one of the few people who have read my journal semi-consistently in the past.. contact me.. please?)

ooh.. haha.. I just remembered something.. a comment Peter made when I played a song I composed at this 'talent' day we had at this event. He was amazed that I had composed the song and said that it literally 'gave him chills.' I didn't believe him, and then he proved it by showing me his arm which had goosebumps up it. Hm.. I think I might have even wrote a post on this.. now that I'm thinking back to it... it was actually a really nice compliment that I've obviously never forgotten since then.
