ring me back when you aren't actually being penetrated

Just had one of the greatest days of vacation yet. Such a nice day too, like 60 degrees in the beginning of January?? Global warming is RUINING US. We went into the city to ice skate (at which time I found out I couldn't and got soaking wet because of the melty ice rink). I called and Alex while everyone else finished skating and then we headed over to Esther's for a baking/Arrested Development party. Anita and Christine met up and the rest of the night entailed Olive Garden, trying to sign all of them into my dorm at NYU and failing miserably, and going to hookah instead. The night ended with taro bubbletea and finding out my "friends" are as immature as I took them for. We'll see where that goes.

Anyway, my new favorite thing ever? This British drama/comedy called Skins. It's only aired there and I saw the season 2 promo on LiveJournal, was super curious, and checked it out. LOVED IT. It's about a group of friends who are all attending public college and are just fucking crazy. Really horny, want to party and get drunk/high constantly, and they're all combating their personal issues. Kind of like Degrassi on steroids and heroin. My favorite character is Sid, who is kind of in the shadow of his best friend Tony and is really a sweet guy who tries but is still kind of unlucky and a little dorky, even. He's the one in the glasses and the beanie:


And yeah, the dude to his left in the green tshirt is Nicholas Hoult, who was the little kid in About A Boy. KID GOT HOT! Even sexier, he's a huge douchebag on the show... SO do yourselves a favor and watch this show! Some online links are available at alluc.org.

My television addiction is becoming quite sad. The new episodes that will air in the next week are making me happy beyond belief (like the 2 hr premiere of One Tree Hill tomorrow night? Chinese take-out and I am there!), therefore it's going to be really depressing when everything is over and I am out of shit to watch. Legit out, since I've become a DVD box set monger. I'm already done with seasons 1 and 2 of Arrested Development... guess season 3 will be purchased as soon as I find it.... BUT WTF WRITER'S STRIKE?!? This cannot continue. I need DSM and Ugly Betty in my lives... a nationwide bakesale is in order to fix this entertainment problem.

Birthday soon. In less than 10 days, to be exact. Not that I am counting or awaiting nineteen with any excitement, because what fun is it honestly? I can buy cigarettes at home but I'm over smoking when I'm sober. Andy Jajja is going to be back in town the day before my birthday so he may come chill on Long Island and meet some peeps. That made me super happy talking to him tonight. And Alex earlier... I miss my NYU friends so much now. Yuck.
