does your foot ever itch so much you wanna bite it off?

Things That I Love About ETHS:

• Being able to drink alcohol on the weekends without the prospect of being expelled
• Driving the hot whip to school and to Steak-N-Shake during my lunch period
• The fights in the hallway, and the fact that there's a girl named Lasagna in my gym class (it's actually spelled La'Zanya)
• A curfew two hours later than Saturday night check-in
• The Evanstonian and its cultlike status
• Classical music during the passing periods
• The security guards who always comment on how much/the lack of warm clothing I wear
• Cotillion 2005
• How sometimes it looks like a castle (i.e. in Pnemonia Alley)
• Finally understanding the way rooms are laid out: South, Bacon is green, North, Beardsley, is red, East, Michael is blue, and West, Boltwood, is yellow
• "Laplace, tell us a Christmas story!" I ain't got no stories, now SEND IT ON DOWWWN"
• I'm Mr. Chic-O-Stick, Mr. Su Su Su
• HomeMade Pizza
• Living a normal high school life

Things I Miss About Exeter:

• Shared music on iTunes, and Kirk Bansak's a capella
• Chicken fingers at d-hall
• Swimming in the Exeter river with all those weird theatre kids...naked
• A few 5 a.m. visits, and a few EPs
• Shower parties where we'd turn the radio up as high as it could go and shower in the hottest water possible
• Fudge Rounds in Mairead's freezing room, because she always leaves her window open
• The last class on Saturday being over and feeling relieved but peppy
• E/a assembly, and screaming so loud my voice falls apart
• P.O. and the thrill of getting a green package slip
• Filming the revised version of A Separate Peace
• Stealing bikes...lots of bikes, and hearing about English paper where Louis Frank wrote about a bike theft
• Amazing English classes
• Penthouse 03-04: me, Maya Rudolph, Soo Hyun Roh, Nina Lorenz, Hyan Park, Lesley Xu, Stephanie Diehl, Chelsea Rodrigieuz, Ryan McCarthey, Kelsey Meuse-Hassinger, Mairead Small Staid, Jen Gorman, and Dolly Hayde. My literal family. And the additions of 04-05: Sarah Pittman, Camilla Elvis, J-Kwon, and Nicole Zeng. And the millions of friends of ours: Kim-Mei Kirtland, Cat Hollander, Dawn Hu, Dante Taylor, Tricia Owlett, Isaac Wood, Lily Zhou, Hillary Maxwell, Joey Stat...I could go on

But that was then,

and this is now...

and now there's an English paper, an article to revise, and documents to read. Holla.
