North Korea, Onion crusted chicken, and members of the lair

My International studies class has me reading the New York times everyday. Yesterday's news: The U.S. Secretary of State of Asian and Pacific affairs warned North Korea that 'it can either have nuclear weapons or it can have its future'. Geez louise - we have some big fatty american opinions huh?

While I was on the phone talking to my mama waiting for the 75 (I actually caught it this time), this guy came up and leaned over to pick up a piece of paper at my feet. When he unfolded the crumpled piece, looked at it and threw it away, i figured he was looking for something of his. But then I saw as he continued down the road, he would stop at every piece of trash he saw and throw it into the nearest garbage can. How sweet I thought...

Parmesean, Cajun, and onion crusted chicken is on sale buy one get one free at QFC. Sweet. do it.

While I was walking toward the bus stop today, I saw this grungy teenager covered in facial piercings go up to 2 boys around his age - what shocked me was when he said, almost yeling: "give me some money. give me your cell phone. give me something." okay then...

We voted on a house name: its called "the lair". Yup it was my idea. I've decided I really like my housemates...we are all so quirky and different but we somehow work really well together.

Andrea is a sweetheart and a half - we're like sisters who look out for each other. her butt is mindblowing
Jeff, the german subletter is great - he always has either a guinness or a flask of whisky in his hand
Ben is one of the strangest people I've ever met - but equally endearing. He is a physics TA - and it shows. Here are some of my favorite Ben quotes (which ive written on a piece of paper and posted on our refrigerator):
- "Plus, he has curly hair - that's sexy!" - referring to Dan as a father figure
- "I would date anthony if I were a girl. Wouldn't you?"

Which brings me to Anthony - Chinese/vietnamese. He's one of those people who is quiet 95% of the time, and then the 5% that he speaks out is random and funny as hell. I always know its anthony in the kitchen when I hear the rice pour into the cooker...

Dan (the father figure) plays electric guitar - my favorites are ozzy's crazy train, john mayer's why georgia, and the super mario themsong. Even from downstairs, whenever he plays it sounds like he's right in my room because the music travels through the vents.

Cordelie is just a whole nother story - i dont know about that girl - she is a crazy psychological mix. She'll lock herself in her room for days, studying to e4.0 her honors organic chem class and then splurge by getting drunk and running around calling people ho's. 98% of the time she has food stuck in her teeth.

Will and chase are adorable - i love them. They're like little puppies. Chase gives me hugs when i come home from school.
Will tried to fix my straightener with his welding iron. yeah that didn't work...

And then of coures theres Sir PCB V. I love him. He's snuggly. When Caroline came over last week, she scooped him up into her arms like a little baby and was rocking him back and forth vigorously saying "He LOVES it he LOVES it" haha oh caroline...

that's the latest. essay time.
*loves*

p.s. leave me comments
p.p.s. como anda is a popular phrase in cuba and other latin american countries. it means like 'hows it going..?"
