Wandering Aimlessly

Last night was so much fun! It was our weekly bowling night, and Marcus and Jeremy were back. It wasn't the same without them the week before. Chris finally came, like he's been promising to do for weeks, and he brought his roommate Steve, who turned out to be really nice. Amy brought Michelle, which was cool, and Tonya and Carolyn and I were there. Am I missing anyone? Gina came late, because she got a job. CONGRATS, GINA! I bowled the best game (for me) I have so far, beating everyone but Jeremy, with a 112. Lol.

Then we karaoked again. Carolyn and I sang "Tearin' Up My Heart," which was probably the best we've done to date. We split up the verses so that we could hear ourselves, and I think that did the trick <.giggle>. Carolyn ended up doing the dance while I sang for the last half, which everyone loved. We had the whole place into it. Even the Eminem look-alike (and sound-alike, sort of, as he sang the new Eminem song). Speaking of him, ugh. Right before we karaoked, Steve was buying me a drink at the bar. Now, the bar is two-sided, one half being in the karaoke part, the other half in the bowling alley. I was in the bowling half, he (Mr. Eminem) was singing *something* in the karaoke half. He was looking at me and singing, and everyone was kind of laughing, but I couldn't hear his song over the cosmic bowling music, so I smiled back and went on with my business. He came out of the bar, still singing, and by that time Tonya had joined me at the bar. It turned out that he was singing some song about "tits," and since T and I are a little bit well-endowed in that area, he ended up singing to them. Ack! How embarrassing. Jeremy was all "I'll kick his ass." Heehee. Thanks, Jeremy.

I'm really not going to want to leave. I know I've said that before, but I have less than a month here. I do want to see all my friends at home (I miss you guys!!), but it makes me sad to know that August is coming so quickly. And the really stinky thing is that I'll be going home for three weeks before school starts, with really nothing to do. So I'll be depressed and bored. Not a good combination. I'm really thinking of coming back down here in January after I graduate. I know my mom would be sad, but it is such a tempting thing. I might try for an advanced internship with Disney, or maybe just see if I can get a regular job. If I don't have a job or an internship, I'll probably have to stay in Chicago, since I can live there for free, but if I *can* get some sort of paying gig down here, that's something I might do. At least something to think about. I can't believe I only have one more semester of school. Gosh. Then I'll be an honest-to-goodness grown-up! Ahhhh!!
