Cornell Homecoming 2004

This weekend was homecoming at Cornell, which resulted in a ton of fun. BUT for some reason I didn't take any pictures, wtf. I'm really mad about this.

Friday, Kari had some Theta thing, so I hung out with Mira a lot. I even let Mira drive my car... lots of peeling out and crazy driving was done. She set off this dude's car alarm with my exhaust, haha, AWESOME.

Later I got to hang out with Kevi, Kari, and many many other people. I basically just ran around all night - typical Mt Vernon behavior for me. Getting people all riled up, making new friends, starting fights, talking to old friends, etc. I love Mt Vernon.

Saturday I hung out with Kevi most of the day. We're working on a rap for his new CD, it's pretty good so far... ya know... for 2 white guys that don't rap, haha. At night, I met Kari and friends at the U.S. Cellular Center for the official homecoming festivities. It was fun to hang out with everyone at the hotel. Allie and I started this insane "balance beam routine" competition. She was tough competition, but I totally won. I really really wish we would have gotten pictures or video.

Other than that I danced a LOT. I also got in 2 fights at this bar near the dance, wtf. I was the only guy with 6 girls - so every time some gross guy would hit on one of them they'd claim I was their boyfriend. Eventually I think they caught on, haha. This one guy was like, "that's not your boyfriend, that guy's gay." Whoa, I got mad. I ran around the table got all up in his face, we're yelling back and forth, yada yada. Then like 8 of his friends jump up at me; it was retarded. Like, people that do that are so lame. Fight your own fight.

Anyway, a little while later this other dude was hitting on Lindsey and being really really pushy with her so I told him to knock it off, he wanted to fight. Girls totally cause drama, haha. But dudes at this bar were crazy, it was like they'd never seen a girl before. I think I would've been scared if I were a girl.

After all the fighting, etc we decided to walk back to the hotel. Allie thought it'd be a good idea for me to jump in every bush along the way. That was fun.

Then, today we hung out with Kari's family, it was nice. I love going to Cornell. It's always a weekend of craziness. Soon I will have no friends there and it's gonna be sad.
sweet.

sounds like fun!
