V-Day
February 18, 2003 - 2:38 pm
I didn't get up on Friday (Valentine's Day) until like 3 in the afternoon. I had planned on spending the day sulking, feeling sorry for myself. I ended up going shopping with Sara. I also spent most of the day at the computer lab doing research for two papers. When I went back to my building Hiro, Cathy, and some of their friends invited me to go out to dinner with them. I declined, but I asked if they were going out later. Of course they were, and they said they'd give me a call. Well, I didn't wait around for them to call. I got ready and went to the boys' room downstairs (which has literally become my second home since Thursday night). Some people from Newman street came over, Alex, and Erin. Erin looked so familar. Anyways, we all chilled in the boys' room for a while. Then Yulian called Hiro to see what was going on. They were going to Bar Soho, so we all decided to meet them there. So, Yulian, Mike, Alex, Erin, and me went to Bar Soho right off of Leicester Square. The cover was 5 pounds for girls, which didn't thrill me that much. The place was so crowded. We spotted Hiro right away. Hiro is just about the funniest guy I've ever met. He's such a blast. Erin and I instantly bonded. She's so awesome. We got drinks straight away, sat with Alex and chatted for a bit, then made our way to the dance floor. I cannot describe in words how much fun I had. The bar was playing incredibly fun music too(Walk Like an Egyptian, Celebrate, You Can't Touch This, We Are the Champions, YMCA, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Red Red Wine, Living on a Prayer, and so many more). I got very drunk. Yulian ended up buying me a drink. I had intended on paying him back at the end of the night, but I have yet to pay him back and it's now Tuesday. I had so much fun! When we were walking back, I was counting out some change to pay Erin back for a beer she'd bought me. Well, I walked straight into a pole. It really hurt too. It was SOOO embarrassing. I had so much fun. SOOO much fun. After we got back to our building, we just sort of hung out in the boys' room for a while. I didn't go to bed until 6 the next morning.
I have to let you in on a little secret. I have developed a crush on a guy. I don't want to get into any detail, because some of my London friends read this now, and I'd be embarrassed if certain people knew. I know I'm immature, blah, oh well.
I'm so excited right now. I'm going to Paris this weekend to visit Bart. I leave Thursday after class. I can't wait!
