不要騙我
Sunday. 9.5.10 11:53 am
“I see myself as a History professor eventually... it was my undergraduate major afterall. That, and Political Science. What about you? What’s your plan?”

Manny, my roommate, turns his head away from me and toward the Korean food being brought to our table. “It would probably be to kill this,” I say to him while nodding toward the chicken and vegetable concoction being set at my table. It’s my first night in Cambridge, a few hours after Sonya and I parted ways.

He’s a nice enough fellow thus far. He’s way more into philosophy and politricks than I would ever care to be. Honestly, that isn’t much of an accomplishment. The works of Trotsky, Nietzche and Hitler (!) span his bookshelf; Chekhov, Achibe, Sedaris and Kincaid decorate mine. Our first few conversations revolved around history and politics and mostly consisted of passionate discourse broken up by my "Yeah.. uh-huh.. mhm's."

Another distinction between the two of us? He’s completely embraced identity of a Harvard Law Student.

The following day we’re on a bus when the girl in front of us turns around and asks for directions. “Well, where are you headed? All you have to do is…” he continues on, pretending that he knows the city like he knows his hometown of Miami. The girl, who he was no doubt trying to impress, thanks him and asks where he’s going.

Manny sits back in his chair and clears his throat a little. “We’re both going to Hahvahd Law School,” he proclaims with a faint smile. I glance up in time to see her raise a brow. “No…, I mean, where are you guys headed right now?” Clearing his throat once more, Manny sinks a little lower in his seat and mumbles “Target.”

Lol! I bet he didn't get the girl.

Re: Well, if I have a choice, I will not surround myself with those people too but unfortunately, I have no say in that.

LOL "Target." Cute.

Re: No I haven't thought of female MMA. I'm planning to starve myself as soon as school starts. Hopefully that works.

oh jeez...I get the feeling Manny and I wouldn't be the best of "pals." Sounds like you might not be either.

I have about another 10 months. Graduating would help improve the situation but I just don't know how much.

Sad thing is, I would probably be just as excited about being a Harvard student.

re: Thugettes DO cut people. We DO. ]: I mean it.
And I'm allergic to cats, too. But that doesn't detract from their cuteness. At least not in my eyes.
