I heard they found a student in a pool, been all over the news today. Did you know him? Or just from the same school?

t.s. elliot was right. As I like to say: 'april can bite my ass.'
lotones:
it's a pretty small school so i knew of him, but didn't know him personally.

Oh, no. I'm sorry. frown

It'll get better being there, I bet. And hey--if it doesn't, you only have about a month left to get through. That's something.

Whatcha upto this summer?

Dude's a flake. What can I say?

Don't worry about it. We'll be camping in Afton soon.

Saw him again this week at Costello's (and lost a dollar game to his poncey, tie-wearing art school friend)...

As well as this, in a certain Prairie College's monthly publication:

For [lotones], the occasional e-mail from a professor is often welcome. "Professors will, at times, e-mail the whole class with questions pertaining to a reading or an assignment," she says. That allows [lotones] and her classmates to come to class better prepared. "Professors will also e-mail with clarifications on the readings. This helps eliminate any possible confusion on their assignments."


And a third-of-a-page photo, to boot!

So hey--you went to my school. This is my third novel-length post in this thread, and this may be far more blathering than you want to read, but I wondered if how you've perceived the "hookup culture" at our particular academic institution is at all similar to how I've perceived it. I'm wondering whether what I'm getting at makes sense to someone who spent time in the same place as me and observed maybe some of the same things.

It's all hard and shit, talking about the hookup culture there and not being able to just say, "Like Harris parties, you know?" and have everyone get what I mean. tongue

How are you? How's life? smile

Hey! I missed your last post. That sucks. frown

I love that article, though. That's outstanding.

Hey, again! When's your spring break? Let's actually hang out next time you're in the Cities. smile

how do you tell your girlfriend that you want to take a break for a few weeks to fuck other people, then tell her for the first time that you love her? fuuuuuck.
luamour:
No idea honey. Relationships have left me nothing but hurt. I wish you luck pretty lady. <3

Holy Jeez! I just got an email from someone on the MN Grinnellians listserv--I hadn't heard anything about the storm yet. Is everyone okay?

(I won't lie: what you described up there sounds like fun.)
lotones:
most people are fine. some town people still don't have power but they've set up a shelter in town. we're supposed to get another storm tonight so that should be interesting.

this past weekend was my "100 days" party at my school (100 days until we all graduate. holy hell). our particular brand of 100 days involves everyone making out with the people they've always wanted to make out with. it was a surreal night. especially making out with men and women in front of my boyfriend, who was doing the same. it was kinda hot....

That is crazy. biggrin But sounds like fun. Hehe.

Your idea for a set is really cool actually. Hmm, I wonder if they would allow one to have random outsiders in the set, or if I would have to find other SGs to play the part as art students? But seriously freaking cool idea. biggrin

Yeah...dreading the possible impending doom that is winter storm. e_e Let's keep our fingers crossed, otherwise I'm snowed out of some fun parties this weekend. *sad*
necia:
I loved 100 Days. The whole "your last chance to make out with anyone you never got a chance to make out with during college"? For me, that was pretty much everyone. I didn't get to share the night with my boyfriend, though. He got too drunk, puked in a trash can by 11:00, fell over, and then went home.

He was a good sport about the hickies I came home with the next morning, though, so that's one point for him. blush

There were a fair number of people in your class I'd have been into making out with, too. I'm glad it was a worthwhile experience for you. I wholeheartedly concur with and fully support your "people should make out a lot more" proposal.

man, it would suck to be the girl in the dictionary with your picture under the definition of "braces."

fuck this cold weather. more importantly, fuck running in this cold weather. all i have to show for it this week is some frostbite on my ass. gross (or hilarious, depending on who you are).

my body knows that my ass is not a required part. that is how.

Frostbite on ass = bad news.

In re: your comment--God bless you. I'm glad to know that someone knows exactly what I'm talking about. *sigh* kiss

to be honest, my housemate's parents visited for the weekend and her dad took an unpenetrable duke that null and voided our plumbing. lame. i'm going to try to sweet talk my landlord into paying it.

That is some expensive shit!
