so i'm back from berekeley and have a small cold due to the glaring miscalculation i made in assuming (subconscioulsy, maybe even unconsciously) that every other place on earth must be as mild and sunny as so cal. it rained all during the graduation and yours truly stood out in the open and got completely soaked. greek threatres suck.

but on the brighter side, i got to see all the old homies again...not too often we all get together. it's amazing how with some friends (the ones worth keeping) you can not see each other for years and still hang out and feel like nothing's changed....

henda works in this amazing club that's very very nice and had a lot of exclusive VIP areas that we got to wander around in, acting like very important people....needless to say, i felt rather out of place. this strange guy started gyrating in front of me like a belly dancer gone wrong, and actually BECKONED at me with his finger--a truly horrifying sight, and very painful to recount. i stood there with what must have been a look of utter confusion bordering on hysteria... and he eventually gyrated in another direction. sherry cracked up. i'll probably stay confused for awhile.
