random ramblings

3rd March, 2002. 10:12 pm. fun! fun! fun!

First fun event: Alpha Phi Cocktail last night. Look at the pictures! It was so much fun! It was my first event where I drank a good amount, and that was fuuun! Weeeee! Tried some new stuff, so that was fun too. I did my own hair, and thank goodness it came out okay on the first turn! We went to M&L Fabrics to buy material for Steve's Toga Party next Saturday, and ended up running late. I had to rush through my hair, but I'm so glad it was cooperating with me. I hate it when I have bad days... it takes forever and seems like nothing I do will fix it.

So back to the alcohol... I got to try so many things! Before the event, I had some Parrot Bay. Pretty good... can't have too much though cuz it gets too coconutty. Then started with my usual, Long Beach Iced Tea. It's funny cuz I always though that Long Beach and Long Island have the same alcohol content, just instead of Coke, they use Cranberry. But I was watching the Bartender make it... he was doing his mixing, then after the sweet and sour, before the Coke, he says "oh wait, you wanted a Long Beach, huh?... sorry". So he got a new cup, and I asked "then what were you making?" He was making a long island, so I was surprised that he had to start all over. Watching him make it, there was twice as much alcohol in the Long Beach than Long Island. When I went to Vegas and got the Long Beach, he also filled it to the top with alcohol before adding a *hint* of cranberry, and I thought that bartender was just super generous with the alcohol, but this bartender did the same thing... so I guess it's standard. Oh well. But I also got to try a Tequilla Sunrise (okay) and a bloody mary (yuck) and a jack and coke (not bad) and midori sour (not new, and too syrupy for me, but was very good after jack and coke!). So that was my night. hee hee...

Second Fun event (upcoming): I just traded in my points at wagerworks.com and got a two night stay for two at Bellagio and two buffets! Yeah! And Jonathan will be trading in for EFX tickets and more buffets! Yeah... cheap and fun trip! I can't wait. We'll be going during spring break, so if anyone's going too, let me know! We'll party like rockstars together!

Third Fun event (upcoming): Like I said earlier, Steve's turning 30 and having a Toga party. Jonathan and I went to go get fabric. I think it'll look so cool... if I can sew it right, of course. Let's hope I have a good day on the sewing machine. I need to figure out when I can go home to sew it too. Darn... there's not much time.

ooOOoo... I remember what I was gonna say. I GOT THE SPC POSITION! yay! So I will be supervising 5 of the community programers next year. What an experience. I will be a paraprofessional staff. It'll be neat cuz I get to do the hiring (so if you're living in AV next year and interested in programming activites, let me know!), then I get to train them, then supervise them for the rest of the year. I get my own room (paid for) and a monthly stipend that's more than what I'm getting as an HA! YAY!

Current mood: hungry.
