05/02/2003 entry: "Hey yeah, it's May"
I had a fun night tonight. I went to visit Sarah at the front desk, and handed over her birthday present. She liked it :) I got her a card, put a small bouquet of silk flowers together and got her a Barnes and Noble gift card, cause she mentioned she wanted some books. Two of her roommate came to the desk to join us and they both read the card I got her, and they had the same reaction to it. They were like, "Ohhh that is so nice/cute!" Hehe I pick out good meaningful cards.
But yes, Sarah was super happy with the gift, and that's what's important. I love watching people open gifts I get them and the smile that comes over their face, etc. I like making people happy. It makes me happy. Everyone's happy. Happy happy happy.
But we had a ton of fun, just the four of us hanging out, talking. Sarah told this HILARIOUS story about her sister, I can't do it justice. You have to have her tell it, and it has to be in person. She is so animated and funny. We laughed so hard, you wouldn't believe it. Now me, I'm not that funny. Well... never when I intend to be. And I don't tell stories well because I forget things. But one of Sarah's roommate was talking about how at her job, one of the rules is that you can't dye your hair an unnatural color, and you can't let your roots show.
Now, let me paint a picture of the state of my hair, here. A few inches of my natural hair color (roots), which is dark blonde. Then, sections of either black or red hair. Nevermind the gradations between. So, I'm concerned with this policy, and say "Well, what if you don't like your hair color anymore? Then what?? I mean... look at ME!
And shit, Sarah just thought that was the funniest thing in the world and bust out laughing. I don't know what it was, but hell who cares! Good times. Her roommates are awesome. I'll be so sad when they all graduate! :( Which is this term... wahh.
But, you know there's always the chance for finding new people to hang out with. And of course, I'll still see Sarah once in a while since she DOES live in Naperville. We'll have to catch up on all the random drama that happens to us!
I have to get to bed soon. But I wanted to post. Cause I was in such a happy mood tonight. Haha I have another short story,.. I was taking a shower around 7:30pm and all of a sudden I hear someone yelling "RACHEL!" and finally I turn off the water and scream "WHAT??"
"IT'S ME SARAH! MY MOM BROUGHT ME CUPCAKES, DO YOU WANT CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA?"
"UHH.... VANILLA"
"OKAY I'LL LEAVE IT OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR!"
"COOL... THANK YOU...."
and I proceeded to finish showering. And then later, when I was at the front desk and we were telling her roommates about it, I said "Yeah I'm sorry I didn't come to the door, but I was kind of soapy....... and naked." (My other big laugh of the night. Whoo! I'm on a roll).
But like I said, bed. Sleep. I have to register for classes tomorrow morning, I have to wake up earlier than usual. Yyyup.
