Day 13

  I have so much to write about! If you're not big on reading, you should probably stop here. Or here. Whichever you prefer.

  So, in my previous (weird) post, I wrote that I wanted to tell you about an awkward bus ride that Ella (yes Eleanor, except Ella is just shorter. Stop being a smarty pants) found quite hilarious. So, I was on the bus, and I pushed the yellow tape to signal my stop, and when the bus came to a halt, I didn't realize that it was because of a red light, not because it had reached the stop. So, I stood up with my crazy bags in tow, and when I realized I was too awkward to sit back down all oddly. The bus was full of kids from school, truth be told I guess I sort of wanted to look like I knew what I was doing. Sheesh, I'm a subway girl, not a bus girl.

  Anyways, I digress. The bus stopped, and when the bus picked up again and started moving, I was hanging on to those things that you're supposed to hang on to. But, they sway, and I lost my balance, and I fell. At this point in recalling the story, Ella began to crack up, but she didn't realize that I had fallen completely on top of actual people, from my school. Like I fell right on top of them, completely flat. Like flipping a pancake. Ella kept laughing, anyways. That was so awkward. I was pretty embarrassed. Oh well?

  I'm not going to continue just yet, because by this point you're probably laughing at me, so I'll give you a second to get that over with.

  Ok. Ready? So, we went down to Rutgers to see "As You Like It". It was pretty brilliant. Stop laughing! There was one actress in particular who made incredible facial expressions. Hilarious. She played a human most of the time, but for a minute she was a sheep, and I couldn't look at her because I would have just bursted out laughing. She looked like...well...like a sheep. Baaaa and everything. So funny.

  The other perk was that I ate a really amazing hummus and pita sandwich, that was probably the best I have ever eaten in my entire life. Not to mention, Rutgers has the most adorable bridge. A hilarious (oooh, mysterious. You could take the italics as sarcasm, or as if I really thought he was very funny) guy started jumping on this adorable bridge, and I swear that the entire bridge shook and swayed beneath your feet. But it was truly very pretty.

  On the ride back, at 11:00 mind you, Ella and I were very tired, so we decided to make the seating arrangements more interesting. I lied sideways with my legs going across the aisle, and my head on my coat, while Ella leaned against the window/seat and stretched her legs out underneath the seats in front of us. We were so incredibly comfortable. So comfortable. So incredibly comfortable.

  But, a friend of mine, Rai, who was seated behind us decided that it would be funny to sprinkle water on us. We complained, but it was mostly funny.

  Anyways, Rai was fooling around and he accidentally left the water bottle open, and because the bus shook he accidentally poured the entire bottle of water on us. It wasn't funny anymore.

  We were soaking wet. Completely soaking wet. Ella was especially pissed because her coat was drenched. Ugh. You know, I don't know why I'm smiling.

  This morning was cool. I left my spoon on the floor in theatre, and I had to run back and get it.

  In french (hmmm. Should that be capitalized?), we played this bizarre game where you hold a fly swatter and there are numbers on the board, and the objective is to tap the number that is called before the other team. I know... :)

  Anyways, me and a guy named Kareem were one team, and the other team were these two girls. We were back and forth for awhile. You know how it goes, everyone was yelling "You cheated!" and "Foul play!!" It was a mess.

   I won!!!! teehee, I'm so competitive. I meant we won. WE WON. 

  Next, a thank you to my friend Grace. Recently (today, actually), she went ahead and commented the sweetest things on every post. I love you, Grace!!!! :) :)
