Day 99: Clubbin'

In the morning, I woke up early and finished my essay. Piotr made me pancakes and then I walked home. When I went to print my essay, the printer in the learning center wasn’t working (of course.) I ran into one of the guys in my English class, and we ended up sprinting to the Unit 2 learning center to print our papers, then to the FPF building to turn them in. It felt good turning it in, but I knew I had another essay to do for 31AC, so I started it (that is, after a long nap).

I was a bit worried about finishing, since I drained myself with the first essay and I had planned to go to a club in SF with some VSA friends to help fundraise for a mentorship program (their tagline is  "Party with a Cause.") I borrowed one of Kayla’s dresses because I needed to wear my other dress on Monday for Banquet. Jane wanted to take a picture, but I ran off before she could lol

I went to the club with Diana D., Diana T., Richard, and Jamesuel. At first, because 1) I was kind of nervous because I didn’t know that many people there and 2) Diana D. had gotten me onto the later bus with all the juniors and seniors so I could be with them. They all promised to keep me safe, and they certainly did. Every time a guy tried to creep on me, they would move me around or block him.

I did try one drink, and to be honest, the alcohol made the aftertaste kind of gross. You guys can rest easy knowing that I probably won’t be doing much drinking in college (not that that wasn’t already obvious.) Overall, I had a good time, even though the music wasn’t exactly top-notch—what made it fun was definitely being there with my friends.
