Sunny Friday: I Love Red Stripe





What a good day, for the most part.

Firstly, a funny ass Chinese debate about Simplified/Traditional characters at 10am.

Frantically finishing ME108 HW in class at 11am.

Riding my bike around at 12pm and 3 pm and seeing so many people on sproul. For those of you who purposely avoid sproul, you should reconsider it because that's the place to socialize. Even if you're turned off by flyering, give the flyers a chance and you'll be surprised at what shows and cool clubs are out there. There are also almost always free shows around noon from the a capella groups. In addition, I bumped into Justin and we saw so maybe 15 people within 20 minutes. I felt nice and sociable.

Skipped ME109 because it was useless and at this point, a failing grade is imminent.

Hung out with Mups for a bit instead and delivered her damn sleeping bag and red blanket. I hope she had fun at FICB retreat.

Then, at 4:30, I finally got to hang out with my partners, the THREE TRES, at Betsy's house at Cloyne. It was the most carefree and fun hour of drinking with the two of them that I've had in a while. I love my Red Stripe; it's ma favorite.

Then, I biked to Downtown Berkeley Bart to meet up with Chris Wong to try out Berkeley Critical mass. I didn't realize until I got there how much beer I had, and yet I was able to bike for a good hour up into way north north berkeley. I almost fell a few times, but I'm surprised I didn't crash! dunno how that was possible. sadly, it wasn't that large of a group, but it was a fun chance to ride maybe 7 miles. Good thing I had ma helmet on.

Then I separated from the mob and took a break at the end of the tunnel on a bench where met this soccer girl named anna waiting for the bus. We chatted a bit and I found out she was from Sweden. Then, when we separated i THOUGHT i was biking in the right direction until i saw a sign that said "welcome to albany." .... screw me. So after getting lost, i google mapsed my 2.5 miles and got back home at 8pm. So hungry that i microwaved some food with the tv on and didn't even realize that I had fallen asleep until Sam and Peony woke me up from their trip to the bars.

I had planned on going to Jericho or to see Sherlock Holmes, but that didn't happen, lol. I
showered and went over to beverly cleary to hang out with the rube goldberg building team. Betsy was there and Justin came and made a sombrero man sculpture. haha. Do well on your PCN dance, Justin.

Then i went to bed with jonjon. good day. hopefully, today, i can practice the dance with the other DWX guys. it's crunch time.

Here's a post that I never published from a while ago

I'm feeling pretty shitty for not having gone to a lot of fraternity events

Theta Tau Events I've missed out on:

Poker Night
Marina Cleanup
First Ficomm meeting
Sports Day with SWE
Day in SF
Pledge vs. Active Basketball Game
Baseball fundraiser
Telephone fundraiser

in order to make myself feel better, I'm gonna have to list the events that i didn't miss

Events I didn't miss:
Snowboarding trip. so fun.
Infonight
Professional Night
Blake's Rush Social
Bid Night/Afterparty
LJ's birthday
Danica's Birthday
Tie Dye Party
Pre-spring break party

It hits me several times how proud I am of us, and the Deltas in particular, currently, for how much influence we've achieved. Reading the Pi Tau Sigma emails and the Engineering mail newsletters to see our events advertised reminds me of how all of our amazing members have helped us accomplished the goals that we were so stressfully striving for several semesters ago.
