This year's Spring Fling weekend was easily waaay more enjoyable than last year's.
In a nutshell, it was:
1) Dying with the girlfriend: she had the fever, I had a massive toothache. Nothing like pain to bring 2 people together.
2) Meeting the girlfriend's brother (who's literally a rock star!) and his 2 friends who were thinking of coming to Penn. Telling him army anecdotes and why he should pick Stanford over Penn (haha), liking him from the start, and seeing how adorable the girlfriend is when she's fussing over him :)
3) Fried Oreos, silly funfair games (see below), drunk people, bad rock bands, Dhamaka$tric+lyFunkFreaksoftheBeat blahblahblah on stage (twinge of longing, again), being silly and prancing around in the Quad
4) Fling concert featuring OK Go, Gym Class Heroes, and Ludacris! The lineup sounds more impressive than the concert actually was. I was sitting so far back that I couldnt even see their faces, plus I didnt know most of the songs from the first 2 acts. Ludacris was pretty awesome but the roommate forced me to leave early so that we could prepare for:
5) Club 709's VIP Party! Or rather, our highly successful house party we threw for our friends. 200 people invited, 400 bucks worth of alcohol, black light, blue, purple and pink cellophaned lightbulbs, self-made mojitos, our entire living room, sans furniture, converted into a MASSIVE dance floor, and AMAZING turnout! Our room has never been so packed before. To top it all off, the cops came to bust it. (ok fine, they told me to tone the music down in a really stern way, but it was still pretty cool)
6) Club Singapore's Fling picnic: hoagies and Singlish accents :)
7) Pregames and pregames and pregames. Appreciating my home for the social focal point that it is. Its fine, i really dont mind cleaning up after these sessions.
8) Carnival on College Green with free cheesesteaks, ice cream and cotton candy, DJ spinning next to the Button, silly inflatable obstacle courses, Twister and laser tag.
9) Pan Asian's third post concert afterparty
10) Absolutely no work done. (actually, I havent been doing work since 3 weeks ago)
11) Spending my time with you and loving it :) And yes, dear reader, perhaps its timely for me to release a picture of the one that has been occupying my days, my mind, and my heart for the past 2 months:
(actually, i put up another picture before this, but she exercised her veto rights over it.)
