life is good

Okay so i’m at NYPL, ny public library, (pronounced ‘nipple’), and it sucks. i miss having a library that isn’t really just a tourist attraction in disguise. anyway, i have 15 minutes left on this computer, which freezes, so this may be like a half-post. i get a lot of bored-workday emails from my friends who have internships right now, b/c they do no work at their jobs. so that night i called lebanon: i was at a bar with some of the cast of the entourage, which is apparently a famous tv show, which i’ve never heard of. i just recognized the main guy b/c he’s been in films. and is also extremely attractive. we were at this bar, mercer bar, which is one of the more expensive places for me in nyc, b/c these guys who run some huge law firm that i had also not heard of, decided to walk in and just buy it for the night. they brought me and my friends b/c their friends were really weird. and boring. - at least that’s my guess. and they bought the club. i didn’t know you could just buy a club for a night - but it was great. we got the dj to play whatever we wanted, these guys decided who got in - which was actually pretty sleazy, and all the drinks for everyone there were free for the rest of the night. which ended for me and E by around midnight. b/c of this whole open bar situation, we were done pretty early. also didn’t really feel like drinking that night, but couldn’t resist that whole random situation. mostly we were just sick of the ppl there, b/c free drinks and music is great and all, but when you’re surrounded by assholes it loses appeal faster. so we left and some of our friends stayed and apparently saw vince vaughn who had a whole entourage of his own after we left. i’m not into the whole chasing famous ppl and hanging out with rich losers scene, but i’m not gonna lie, i looked around and was like, damn. how did we end up in this situation. we started out at art bar just splitting a bottle of wine w/ a few friends b/c everything was too expensive. and then moved on to free champagne at mercer. it was nice. so enough about that. it really was more exciting at the time, and i’m pretty sure the champagne helped w/ that. it was a great night, but i hate going out right now. i’d rather lay, my friends are too much effort when drunk (minus E), and it just feels so unhealthy. my friends here are hazardous ppl. i love them to death, but the things they do.. anyway. sorry to ramble on but they’ve been driving me crazy a bit (again, minus E), since i got home. and i can’t complain to any of them so i’m rambling to you. blog. but life here is still quite good. i locked myself out of my apt this morning, and my roomates are both away in arizona on business trips til monday. which is cool i’m staying w/ a friend until then, it’s just funny b/c the ppl downstairs hate me and won’t give me the spare key. partly b/c i already borrowed and lost the spare key. - (in my defense E lost it, but i gave it to her knowing that she’s probably the only person worse than me to give a key to). anyway. so i have another interview on saturday, but i got the job i applied for. i applied for 4 different positions and got my last choice, but when i can’t commit for 6 months/a year, and can’t train for 6 weeks, i’ve gotta take what i can get. still i’m gonna ask again in the interview on saturday if i could do both positions. what i’m doing right now is great and i’m really excited for it - plus you get free food w/ this position, but my first choice involved sort of creative writing for the business and i want to see if there’s any way i can be involved w/ that too..even if i can just meet the ppl in that dept and learn more about the project or something. i feel like there’s gonna be 2 things repeated in every post for the next few weeks: 1 - that beirut seems amazing, and 2 - that it’s freakin cold here. and it is, in case i left that out of this one, it’s freezing. alright well i’ve got 1 minute left on this compute session, but i’ll continue my rambles tonight from A’s computer.
