Cast List

There are so many new people to write about now, but nobody back home knows them. Well, not nobody, but hardly anybody. Therefore, it is time that I make a cast list con picturas galore. Character bios should help.

Megan/Meegz/Megladon

Best friend of two and a half years. Everybody has probably heard me talk about her before. Love this bitch. I cannot imagine how college would be if we hadn't gone to Guilford together. She understands me more than just about anybody (with the exception of Alice, mi hermana). She's from Maryville, TN. We're planning on being roomies next year in Mary Hobbs (classy as fuck all girls upperclassmen dorm). Mary Hobbs has wood floors and awesome antique doorknobs. So psyched. We are also moving to NYC together when we graduate, to act and live and be merry.

Noah

I met Noah my second weekend here at a bonfire (there are drunken bonfires every weekend in the Guilford forest), although I had technically already met him because he lives on my hall. We went to Carolina's Diner at 4 AM and were instant friends. Well, first we were hookups for a couple weeks, but now he's like a brother to me, and it's weird thinking that we were ever hooking up. He's from Danbury, NC; I think that's what it's called. It's pretty nearby. He plays bass in a metalcore band called Sephiroth (geeky, right?). They have shows most weekends, so he's often not here to party with us on Saturday nights. It's not what he plays in the band, but he's a fucking brilliant guitar player, I am so jealous. He ran in high school, and wasn't going to here, but now he is joining the track team. He smokes a ton of pot. Then again, it's Guilford, so that's pretty normal.

Ryan Wroblewski/Baby Ryan/Ry

Ryan Wroblewski is another one of my brothers here at Guilford (I have so many, it is ridick). He also lives on my hall, in the room across from me. We have a shit ton of Ryans here for some reason; just on my hall alone there are three, and that's out of like fifteen people. Because of this, we have to call them other things. For Ryan W, it happened to become "Baby Ryan." He doesn't like that name though, for obvious reasons, so I have been trying very hard not to call him that (to his face). He runs xcountry/track and is from Virginia Beach. He has the most impressive sneaker collection that I have ever seen, it's an obsession. Kinda republican, but I love him anyways. I think he's double majoring in sports management and business.

Zewek

The one in the leather jacket. The guy next to him is James, his roommate (so weird). They live on my hall. Some of you probably know Zewek, like Julie. He's a fellow citizen of the Dirty D. Again, one more of my brothers. He plays rugby and he's silly as fuck. One of the most high-energy people I've ever known. Naturally, he seems to be fairly injury-prone.

Alright, I'm done for the moment being. I'm just going to publish this now, instead of saving it as a draft. I intend to make another installment to the Cast List later today, but there's no knowing, really. After all, this is me.

Love!

Spaceship outside the WIndow

The lights keep flickering. The blinds are dancing up a lovely horror.

When the wind whistles through Bryan it makes a spaceship that you can hear even here in Binford.

It's been a while, people. I have been wanting very much to blog lately, so I am doing so. This will not last. It may be the only time. I do not care.

I am happier than I ever thought I could be. Guilford is a home I have been looking for. Isn't that funny? I have a home outside of convention.

Tomorrow I have my last class of the semester. I can hardly believe that one eighth of my college career is pretty much over. I am afraid to leave college and be out on my own like a real, live grown-up. It is years from now, but nearing quickly.

Of course, I will not be truly alone. Megan and I are moving to NY together after graduation. We have made the executive decision that if, by the time we are thirty-five, we are still not married or in serious relationships, we will get married and adopt a little asian girl. We are assuming that gay marriage will be legal by than. If it is not, then the world is just plain ridiculous.

We'll have to get other roomies too, obviously. We're going to be poor as shit actors. Parker asked me yesterday if he can live with us. He wants to be a politician. I said yes. He is silly.

Yesterday Parker and Sarah were making a sculptey bowl on Jesse's floor (with metal parts, of course). They smoked it later and apparently it really worked. Probably smoked it in Stuart's room.

I spent a lot of my day yesterday sitting on Jesse's bed drawing. I drew pictures of Ryan Joy and Stuart. The one of Stuart was the best. Ryan put his on his fridge with his minute clinic magnet. I smiled.

Will kept looking at me and Ryan Joy oddly yesterday. I think it was because of the combination of our penchant for cuddling and Ryan's having a girlfriend back home. He kept giggling at us.

I guess it is obvious what is going on.

fml.

Actually, what is obvious is probably not even what is true. I am pretty sure that everybody on our hall thinks we are hooking up. We are, in fact, not.

Who knows what the future holds in store, though.

Saturday night, technically Sunday morning, I came back to my room at five AM. Half the lights in the room were on, and Lia was sprawled out on her bed in her clothes, over the covers, face down in her pillow. She looked up a bit after I entered. Without even saying so much as "hello," she looks at me and says "Did you get with Ryan Joy?" Oh, marijuana. Oh, alcohol. Oh, college.

I wrote this yesterday, but Meg came in and so I saved it as a draft. I'll hopefully write another today. Maybe a character guide for the story of my college experience. :)

LOVE!
