country gentlemen

Oooooh I was in one hell of a funk early last night; the kind of funk where I had half the mind to wander out in my sweats and beaded slippers and just sit in the park or walk around aimlessly for hours. I did, but only for about 10 minutes. I'm starting over again next year with NYU people, because frankly, I felt so friendless last night and that makes me sad. Maybe NYU just isn't my scene. Whatever.

Anyway, I cheered up a bit when the roomie whipped out a "Princess Plays" that she got for me. Basically, a little book with the script from scenes in Disney's Cinderella, Aladdin, and Snow White. We're going to act them out sometime. I have to admit it was nice to have her in the room to distract myself from...myself I suppose.

Read an article in the paper that talked about the Y chromosome in men withering away and becoming nothing, which explains their "predictability," whereas the X chrom in women is what makes the men call women inscrutable. "Women's chromosomes have more complexity, which men view as unpredictability." So basically, women have 46 fully functioning chromosomes, and men have 45 chromosomes and the 46th is basically just for the sperm. I'm sorry but...hah! It was an amusing article.



Apparently this year's graduation speaker for Spence is Sarah Jessica Parker. Oh, Spence.
