I SAW THE SQUIRREL JUST NOW. OMG, I'VE TOTALLY SEEN THE CULPRIT, IT WAS TRYING TO GET INTO MY ROOM AT 9:43AM!!!!! DAMNITTTTTTT
AND I HAVE TO GO TO WORK SOON, AND JOEY'S ASLEEP!!! I hope it doesn't attack while he's unconscious!!! I TOTALLY SAW HIMMM (why do i assume the squirrel's a guy?)

damn squirrels [part two]

so i taped up the hole. thinking that that would keep them out.
they've attacked again today. this time taking my loaf of bread and joseph's pita chips with them...

damn them..
damn them to hell..

damn squirrels

a squirrel. or bird. or chipmunk.
iono.. something of that size
attacked joseph and my room the other day. it bit through the screen and attacked my bag of rice. ripping a giant hole in it. when i got back the rice was seeping out of the bag and out the window. [sigh] it was nice rice that my mom had flown over to me from georgia too. this sucks.

and now i feel like there are animal germs all over my room
gross.

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

why. do i suck at life?
i was cooking bacon at 2am. WITH THE FAN ON. but the fire alarm still went off :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

public safety came.
they asked who was cooking...
took down my name
...room number
...id number
then one fire truck came
then another
then another...
three firetrucks, because the bacon smoked a little too much.
AND I'VE TOTALLY MADE BACON IN THIS KITCHEN BEFORE. [sigh]
i hope i'm not fined for this

and the alarm went off, and everyone had to wake up and stand outside :( at 2am
i felt so bad :(

I'M SO SORRY EVERYONEEEE :(:(:(:(:(:(
i'm so embarrassed right now. i don't remember the last time i was this embarrassed about something :(
i'm sorrrryyyyyyyy :(






i'm so scared to cook there now

iphone 3g

i have nothing to say.. except that..
my mom waited 8 hours standing in line to get it.

now if apple can get someone as un-tech savvy as my mom to want the iphone the DAY it comes out, then i bow down to them.

it's so hot.

so here i sit
on my bed
naked
eating prosciutto.

ARGH. i'm hungry

my fridge is overflowing in groceries :) it's a very beautiful sight.
there are mangoes, avocados, plums, and prosciutto. (along with many other things)

but i am sitting here, in the lobby of 15west at 2:34am working.
yes, i am working until 5am tonight. lucky me.

but i guess this is good since it finally gives me time to do a little update, which i know i haven't done in forever. but balancing three (and soon to be four) jobs ain't easy. especially when there's a hours worked limit of 40 hours a week :/

job number 1:
hall monitor
basically i have to stay up from 11am-5am and sit at one of the entrances/exits of the dorms and make sure that precollege kids aren't 1)returning after curfew or 2)escaping. so as my friend paul so nicely stated. i am like a watchdog. and even though the job may suck sometime, and really fuck up my sleep schedule. it is paying for my housing this summer, so therefore, it is totally worth the cost.

job number 2:
technician's assistant
all the major's here at risd have technicians who deal with all the, well, technical stuff in the department, so, as a textiles technician's assistant, we spent the first couple of weeks cleaning out the studios, reorganizing things, and basically just making sure everything would be clean and ready for next year. and now, we're doing more prep work. like rescreening the silkscreen tables, mixing new dyes, and cleaning out the knitting machines. it's cool because i'm learning so much about the textiles department and how everything ie: the weaving and knitting machines work AND it is the highest paying job on campus with a $8.70 hourly wage, so therefore, it is totally worth that manual labor.

job number 3:
risd store
basically, it's retail, like working at a art supply store like dick blick's or michaels. except a bajillion times better. because, everyone is cool, cuz they are a risd student, EXCEPT FOR THE FUCKING PRECOLLEGE KIDS OMFGZ THEY DRIVE ME CRAZY FUCK FUCK FUCK. but that's another story for another time. and i get a 20% discount off everything. even the magazines. :) so it's totally worth it.

and possibly job number 4:
typeshop/book binding studio monitor
i had emailed suzi inquiring about whether or not she needed people to help out in the typeshop or the book binding studio abou a month ago, and she finally replies yesterday that she would love the help. so i have asked her to send me the hours and i'm gonna see if i can fit them in anywhere. because not only would the job be awesome and high paying, i would also start to network within my department.

so damn, all four jobs are important to me.
risd limits that i can only work a combined amount of hours within all my jobs of 40 hours. i wonder if they limit how many jobs i can have at one time :P this means, on pay day, i'll get 4 different paychecks. haha, nice.

lovely. just lovely.
