A whole bunch of nothing

Well first, let me say that Tougaloo is trying to make a rise in the cafe. There is now someone checking id before you can eat. We now have covers for the bread. The deserts are not individually wrapped, but placed on a white porcelain tray for you to choose which one you want. There was a table set up to keep the food warm yesterday, but I didn't see it today. At dinner, they served boiled shrimp. Tougaloo. Boiled shrimp. They were big too. I don't know if they were good or not because I was scared to eat them, but that's another story. The basketball players had more than their fair share though.
Anyway, the man at TNT has officially pissed me off. I went up there today. He hadn't even done mine. I am so pissed. He claims everyone's will be ready tomorrow, but I didn't tell my ls that because I have no faith in him. I just think if we were understanding all those times he f*cked up then he should understand we need them yesterday. I will digress though because people have for real problems and I'm bitching about the people at TNT.
The Zetas and Sigmas had Mr. and Miss Royal Elite last night. It wasn't Mr. Debonaire, but it was nice for a Zeta pageant. My little friend Amanda won. She did so well. She had a lot of attitude. I hope she makes it when she writes. Anyway, they did a switch-a-roo for one of the intermissions. Two reps from each organizations had to go up there. There were only four of us there (Felicia, Tracy, Stubbs, and self.) Felicia and I went. Needless to say, I did not want to. That is so not my thing. I can barely do the few AKA struts I know. We ended up with the Kappas. Felicia shimmied and I held up the mirror. That was all I could do. Felicia was actually nervous. I was shocked bc usually AKAfool is always ready to act a fool. She looked cute. I sucked. The Sigmas had us. It was too funny. James Purnell and Anthony Archie got in table tops and did their "step-outs." I could have died. They were walking around with their noses in the air and shaking their heads bc they weren't shaking their hair. They threw up the pinkie and walked I guess confidently. It was hillarious. The crowd thought it was the best, but Jetau said the Ques won. I think she said that because the Ques did the Sigmas and the Sigmas did us. The crowd actually stood up for the Sigmas. The pageant was cute though. The switch-a-roo was the best part.
I take the GRE Tuesday morning for real this time. I am going to study for it over the weekend and Monday. I have to go tell Dr. Olabode to let me take my test early. I hope he does. He will prolly think I am avoiding his test bc I didn't take the mid-term. I was in Rhode Island.
It's official.I am going to Vegas after graduation. My plans were finalized this morning. I leave that following Wednesday at 9 am. I am kinda excited and kinda thinking I should go somewhere else. I don't know what I am going to do while everyone else is gambling. I refuse to gamble. I see absolutely no point in it whatsoever. I am going though. Maybe I will see a few plays. I don't know. Dr. Jackson said she loved it and is going again in October. She said I am crazy for going in May. I am excited though.
I talked to Mr. Asshole the other night. We actually had a decent convo. I think it was bc he was slightly tipsy. Of course he made his smart comments, but they were sarcastically funny, as opposed to I-can't-believe-this-bastard-just-said-that. It was actually ok. We laughed and talked like we used to before we started having problems. Don't think that's a sign though. Our being together is not in the cards. Again, he was tipsy. He told me that he finally realized some of the things he'd done wrong. I told him he should have listened when I tried to tell him. He said he realizes that. I can respect that.
Either one of two things happened: 1) I was completely comfortable for the first time around him or 2) I just didnt give a shit how he responded. I told him he needed counseling. Not pertaining to me, but to life in general. I have said over and over again to my friends bc I really believe he does. I told him the other night. He asked why and I told him everything I told Veronica. I even told him those things I said in my head that I would never tell anyone. He said he has problems just like everyone else. I said everyone else has problems, just not like yours. He didn't really disagree, but he didn't agree either. I guess you can't really expect someone to say, Yeah Ashley I need to see a shrink. I think he does though. I think he knows it to. Don't think I just blurted it out like I normally do, he asked for it. He said, this girl told me I need to see a counselor. I think he thought I was going to laugh it off, but I said, "I agree. I think you professional help." Shocked myself. (partially) Leave it to me to tell someone some shit like that. Again, he asked for it. I hope he gets it.
I talked to Bebe. I hung up in his face Sunday and he just called back last night. I didn't care. He kept talking about sex and I was so not trying to hear it. I told him. He kept on. I told him again. He kept on. I hung up. When he called, he asked me was I mad. I wasn't but I wasn't going to talk about sex either. I think he just called because he was drunk. (WTH is it with the alchis?) Idiot said he missed me. Yeah right. For some reason he cannot get it through his thick skull that no matter what he says I am not having sex with him. I think if we could actually move past that, we would have some ok convos. We may never know.
I am going to end here bc I have been talking too much. Good day everyone.
