I've managed to become friends with the two guys in my hall who I think are cute (albeit in VERY different ways) & aren't assholes, but I STILL have yet to get in good with Cute German Boy, who I still want to be friends with most! WHY DOES HE DENY ME??? WHY DOESN'T HE HANG OUT WITH ECCENTRIC NYER MORE SO THAT HE CAN BE EASY ACCESS??
Oh, and I didn't get to meet Avril yesterday, but I finally did see her today! For two seconds, haha, but she tapped my shoulder while I was waiting in line for dinner, and I went omgAHHHHHHHHH!!1 when I turned around and saw her. Then we hugged, and she's so skinny that I thought she would break. DD:
And I had to buy exactly twenty books for my classes, and had to lug all of them back to my dorm all by myself. :((

Start of classes~!
I start classes tomorrow! Still have a couple things to sort out with the registrar, but it all should work out okay. Finalized schedule will probably be:
Intensive Chinese (MTWRF 12:10-1:00PM)
China in Transition (TR 9:40-11:00AM)
Quest for Justice (MWF 9:10-10:00AM)
Microeconomics (MWF 3:10-4:00PM)
The only unsure one is Micro, though hopefully things will work out...?
And my Quest class is over-enrolled like crazy, haha. It currently stands at 19 registered out of 13 slots, and I'm def. one of the overflow students. And my Chinese class only has four slots open, and I was lucky enough to grab one of them. :)
Didn't go to any parties last night, though my roommate did and saw our RA (different from the RA I had over the summer!) being totally pissed & taught her how to shotgun a beer. Interesting stuff... He's a nice guy, though, haha.
Oh, and I think some random girls might think that Eccentric NYer and I are an item LOL. Because we were holding hands on Middle Path (in a platonic way, obviously) when we ran into some girls. And NYer has a habit of referring to me as "his girl," which made the random girls coo. The summer people sometimes joked about me being NYer's gf (which is of course inherently funny b/c he's gay and acts like it), but it's ten times funnier when people actually think I'm his gf. xDDDD

Orientation :OO
Things I have learned:
- According to superstition, my dorm building may or may not house an entrance to Hell.
- Brazilian Boy (the guy I'm married to on Facebook) is probably taking Intensive Chinese with Korean Girl & I! Which is totally unexpected because he's Brazilian and seemed to have no interest in Asia at all. And he wants to do study abroad in China LOL.
Brazilian Boy: Should I take it? I mean, class every day and TA sessions...
Me: You definitely should!
Brazilian Boy: But you laughed when I said I wanted to take Chinese. What, are only Asians allowed to take Chinese??
Me: Nooo, I laughed out of surprise. And happiness! It was a joyful laugh.
Him: ....It sounded more like a mocking laugh. - We all have UCCs (upperclassmen counselors) and mine is SO cool. I think the two of us are going to get along really well just b/c I'm already friends with some of his friends, haha. It is nice to have connections.
- And speaking of connections, Eccentric NYer has hooked me up with so many people omg. Including one Cute, Tall German Boy who I've only spoken with for all of two minutes, but he has the most adorable accent and I want to be friends with him. :DDD
- I heard that some craaaazy drunken incidents have happened to upperclassmen I know. And they're the type of stories that make me never want to drink, ever, and even my old roommate (who DOES drink) doesn't want to anymore b/c of those stories. And I guess I'm a little worried b/c I heard tonight will probably be a party night. :(
- Speaking of roommates! I'm getting along okay with my new one. Sometimes we're a little distant b/c she has her swim team friends and I have my summer program friends, but I think we'll probably get along okay. Especially since she likes Asian things! And I was worried that she would think I was a freak after I hung up all my posters & pics of the boys, but when she & her friend first saw my DBSK'd side of the room, they just said, "Oh cool, hot Asian guys."
Roommate: *looking at posters from her bed* I'm really liking these posters. Though my only issue is that they all look like they're four feet tall.
Me: *LOL* Actually, they're all pretty tall. You just can't see it since they're all close in height.
Roommate: Oh yeah, I can see from that poster that they all have realllly long legs... and they probably weigh, like, eighty pounds.
Me: Pretty much! But yeah, they're all around six feet tall.
Her: ......SWEET.
Oh, and Jaejoong #2 wins the vote~
Which reminds me that Avril should be coming on campus today~! My death in T-minus six hours or less. :3

College :O & Vote~!
Just to make this quick b/c I'll need to be waking up really early tomorrow to head off to Ohio: going back to Kenyon tomorrow & have just gotten more or less done with all my packing. I'm bringing my posters of the boys with me too, haha. The main thing I'm worried about, of all things, is if my fav. shirt is packed or not (it's not in my closet, but I don't know if it's in my suitcase...?) and I am seriously tempted enough to rip open my luggage just to check. I also seemed to have misplaced my flash drive (the one that I got for free :( ) b/c I'm chouberiberi stupid. And I desperately want to write Overture now (my ideas for it are so good that even I'M amazed), but now I don't have any time before orientation begins, and Avril is going to fucking murder me for delaying it this long when she comes on campus. GAH.
But yeah, ANYWAY. So I bought an awesome new wallet from JNY & figured now was as good a time as any to switch out my wallet pic of Jae. (Or to the unaware, my hot Korean boyfriend whose picture I always carry. 8D) And since voting on these things seems to be the in-thing right now, I'm jumping on this bandwagon:
I'm having trouble deciding between these two. CHOOSE WISELY~ :O

Graphic Novels & ....Japan's Most Wanted Lovers?
1) Just a quick brag: I got a free COACH purse last night! 8D
2) I started reading the Watchmen graphic novels, since the upcoming movie of it sounds pretty awesome. (And believe me, the trailer looked AMAZING on Imax.) My fav. character so far is Rorschach, though I could love him based on character concept alone. He has moving inkblots on his FACE.
HIS FACE.
And he's also the one who says the line in the trailer about "whispering no" b/c he's a raging bastard of a good guy.
3) So Japan's CDTV music program apparently releases these lists of which musical artist Japanese women most want as their lovers:
CDTVアンケート『恋人にしたいアーティスト』
Male List
1 Akanishi Jin (KAT-TUN)
2 Kamenashi Kazuya (KAT-TUN)
3 hyde (L'Arc~en~Ciel) Even though he's married and old! Go Hyde!
4 Matsumoto Jun (Arashi)
5 Yamashita Tomohisa (NEWS)
6 Takahiro (EXILE)
7 Masuda Takahisa (NEWS)
8 Youngwoong Jaejoong (Tohoshinki)
9 TAKUYA∞ (UVERworld)
10 Sakurai Sho (Arashi)
HEY WTF. HANDS OFF, JAPAN. Jaejoong is MY exotic Korean boo. You bitches can go drool over some twelve-year old JE idol or something nasty like that.
But in all seriousness, I can TOTALLY understand why Jae made this list first, since he's the most Japanese-looking of the boys. (Because there IS a difference between the way Asians look country-by-country, believe it or not.) Though ten bucks says Changmin makes the top ten along with Jae the next time this list rolls by. :)
And I have to ask: how in the HELL did Massu make this list? And one spot above Jae?? He's a cute kid and all, but... seriously? And one spot above Jae?
You're slipping, Japan. You're slipping.
EDIT: Oh, and for Pleiades' sake: Micheal Phelps. Woohoo! :D
