the days speak; the years tell; i throw out the garbage.

sporadic quick entry written in the nick of time before go-time!

soo i was up all night with folklore oh wonderful folklore, got up and jay my indian RA is in the bathroom and i asked him if he's going home for easter i was so out of it. first of all, he's from bombay, india. second of all, i'd take a guess he's not christian then either lol.

had lunch with stubbs and jeff and saw kate galligher and the "pretty in pink girl" as stubbs and i like to call her friend who's in my journalism class. i was whining i should've gotten to know kate better early in the year and he's like don't worry about it and then the one girl sits with and we excused the hot girls knowing other hot girls doctrine with the fact that the campus crusade (fcc, church club) has gotten them lol. well, on the way out of the foodcourt, at the bottom of the stairs we ran into ant and i was showing off a 10-second pooter fart because they always make stubbs laugh the most he laughs, and the girls-before-mentioned came around the bend eeeee; luckily it wasn't in earshot!! just a tad too late for them! though, way too close of a call. we talked and she...i'll just post the email i sent her because i like how i write when i am writing emails.. the letters have a distinct voice, well, because you know who you're talking to and it makes you somewhat more careful, well for me it does at least because it is her impression of me. same reason i was good at writing grad thankyou cards this summer. blah blah blah this paragraph sucks i am in a big hurry.

"hey it's nate! ...from wright foodcourt, that nate. it's always nice seeing you! i don't think i've ever seen you not in a good mood. i guess the year's flown by, and with summer on it's way and everyone moving next year i really(really!) hope to catch you around! we have never ever hung out hahaha. ahh it happens.

that's just to say i'll have a place with the guys next year at the commons and'll be sure to drop a line, you're more than welcome by! feel free to get ahold of us anytime (anytime!) this year or next.. err, my screenname is runnastud03 if that means anything. maybe we'll have a party to kick off the year who knows. i say have fun!

i've never introduced the guys and all year's passed, forgot to today even (an all-nighter last night got me off!).. they are felipe (the mexican), matt (the tall guy), and anthony (the second-tallest i guess). i guess it's our nightly ritual eating at wright ha.

i remember the spice girls inviting us to a halloween (is halloween spelled with an "o" after the "h"?!) party and we didn't go, only to end up at a party that stunk! man i wish... anyways here's a pic of us from that night,

gilligan's island crew, for kicks. and you said you were running little 50, too! but not for theta!? (gooo theta!! hah) i was confused. what's your team name, so i can root you on. and a thanks a lot for the moral support with running! lol i hope it goes well.

have a Happy Easter!! it was good "running" into you! ~nate"

and here's an email to a yearbook girl we ran into at wright from the night before, a second consecutive email:

"valerie-

hmm an email back in question-and-answer hahaha hmm. i was just embarrassed with a lot of things all-round today. that's just to say i felt crumby because i had just eaten a sugar cookie from a kid. he had just given it to me i dunno why (stuff gets stuck in your teeth) and plus i didn't recognize you but i did? didn't that make any sense?! ha don't answer that! these things tend to happen.

from the time yearbook editor-ships take, maybe i should stick to writing. that took pretty long, too. learning / writing about iu soccer was like a damn research project. yes the soccer game was fun, mighty cold feet though.

nevermind mcD's, matrix 3 sucked don't see it, so much happened (i mean ONLY so much happened) but the rest of the night not so bad; hhaa i used a semi-colon. in one year i guess kilroys and nicks will be calling my name huh. i'm glad that was good! i say have fun! but my god my god i am so tired of rum and coke (keystone too!! ..it's not in a green bottle, afterall) -- never had grenadine maybe i should if it's a type of alcohol heh.

i've kinda been curious a long time about how my stories turned out. i'll just stop in whenever ask whomever's around i guess. that's too bad about no-storying the little 50; team Pi Omega Tau (not a frat!) is going to run fast! (haha another semi-colon.) and question-answer, i dunno what to make of that it's a first! guess i've talked long enough forshizzle, letters are fun and easier than last ditch papers for class!

thanx for getting back! ~nate"

there's something that i really like about writing emails; i don't do it enough. letters back get you through some days.

little asian girls on campus are the friendliest girls i have ever come across. they light up when you say excuse me to them or hi. and when i am on a bike they rush across to get out of my way even when i am dragging my feet taking my time. they look like they could squeak. i don't know. but the asian guys too many of them guys smoke.

today jane took me to 4th floor A-tower and i had a lot of fun. we sat in the hallway and told stories and it always makes me feel just great the best telling stories to new people. things that i write here but don't come close to doing justice; just hoping i'll get back to that someday. but yes i am good at storytelling if i do say so. talked with ted, ted, the wes, the dude with a 4-yr-old sister named dina ohh so many great kids!! met my stalker maeve she's nice too lol. we all went to eat at wright it was like we were a hungry conga line walking to. stubbs came, too!

oh and i'm like a fucking legend on jane's floor! one day as the story goes, tim wanted some music, and another guy finds it on my itunes and yells from the lounge, GOWDY HE HAS IT. as we speak tim is connected to my music library. i was the most flattered i've been in awhile, i would introduce myself and one after another person would go, "OHH YOU'RE HIM!" shamus, the smart guy who sits behind me in psych class, he was the most enthused at meeting the man with the music! a big radiohead fan, mytunes will serve him well now.

i definitely met these funsters months too late. meeting people is a time! and now the clock hands dig into my back. anyhow, time running out, game must go on, all that shit. so, here we go me and stubbs with kirstin and chizzle to watch them eat at a thai restaurant lol and then movie night at marla's? stay tuned!! nate's tales will continue!
