Holy crap, what a great weekend. It's amazing what you can do when you, you know, don't sleep that much. So I know that it's a huge writerly no-no to format your writing as if it were merely a laundry list...but....ummmm...I don't...care.
My quintessential Berkeley weekend, in rougly chronological order:
- Flew from LAX to Oakland on a plane packed with USC fans. Was informed by one (35ish year old man who nonethless persisted in calling me "dude") that, as I had gone to Cal, and am now attending UCLA, I'm like "totally [USC's] worst nemesis." Yes me. All by myself. Rar!
-Went to Candice's new place (holy crap, it's nice.) Ate her homemade lentil soup (holy crap, it was good...)
-DESERT AT YOGURT PARK. You can only imagine the importance bestowed on such an occasion.
-Saw Lauren and Dan on Sproul.
-Hung out at the boys' new place.
-Went to Berkeley Bowl!!!! Was mesmorized by gluten free cookies and fresh veggies!!! Bought falafel mix and chai tea and some other stuff to bring home. (mmMMMmmm...health.)
-Random hanging out.
-SF!!! Bar hopping/ dancing in the Castro!!! (so totally way fun. Am aware of sororitiness of such explanation.)
-After some sleeping and breakfast, we went to the football game. er...ummm...the expected beat down involving a very good football team and one that has seen better days. (and worse ones, I might add!)
- Cleaning up/ girl talk. (Can't write this all out. Chances are, males read this blog. And you know, we work very hard to maintain our feminine mystique. And plus your head might explode.)
-Bar hopping in Berkeley- Beckett's and Thalasa before Kay & Julie fell asleep. (Awww...) Heard The Doves on the radio at Beckett's. Got a White Russian. Shot the shit with everyone. Perfect moment.
-Woke up.
-Got a piercing. Did not cry.
-Bought new blazer. Talked to my Mom in the store. Thought it was hilarious that her first reaction to "I pierced my ears!" was "What?! What is that Candice doing to my daughter?!" heehee...
-More hanging out/Crepevine!!
-Back to L.A., Emily related what I missed (John Cusak, Ian references, Dave, and Celine Dion. Damn!)
:::sigh:::
It's nice that there are so many places around that are starting to feel like home.

kat got her ears pierced!!! but when you say "got a piercing" it makes it sound like you got ONE...so i wondered for a sec....
and my field marching career is coming to an end this saturday!! it's so sad!!
Yogurt Park is a DESERT!! Holy crap!
Hahaha nice comment BJ. So Kat-how come I don't get any credit for your piercing? I distinctly remember being the one pressuring you...
So when are you coming back? Because.. Tag! It's your turn to get "sloppy" drunk!
Haha! I think my Mom didn't immediately say "Oh my God, what has Kay done to my child?!" because she thinks you're the good one... (pshhht...) But I think you and Candice get equal credit for influencing me to put another hole in my head. That's what friends are for.
And I *was* a little drunk, it's just that *someone* fell asleep a little too early to see it...
and I'll come back as soon as I can. :)
