NYU Blind Items Part II

WHICH NYU undergrad is diligently pursuing their degree but secretly harbors a desire to throw it all away and become an alpaca farmer?

WHO is suffering from acute Seasonal Affective Disorder?

WHO secretly despises restaurant night?

WHO has seriously considered some pretty screwed up craigslist opportunities?

WHO is quietly struggling with burgeoning contempt for his roommate who may have been potentially involved in some mild potential drunken infidelity (in public!) with his girlfriend?

WHO is still peeved at being called pretentious?

WHO is capitalizing on the strange fetishes of others?

WHO spills assorted beverages on others' bedspreads (it might be YOURS!!!) and then keeps quiet about it?

WHO is applying for a job as a "sake girl"?

WHICH barista-girl should have taken him up on his offer when he asked if she wanted to not go any further?



Hope you've been paying attention!!!

what a fucking joke

pretty soon, someone's going to argue that even an unfertilized egg counts as a person. and sperm too! ejaculate should be given the same rights as you and me! but then pretty soon someone would have to address the fact that killing one person would effectively mean killing THOUSANDS, a theoretical GENOCIDE of potential "lives," and what a grave injustice that would be ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

mofo outrageous!

this was a rough weekend on both my liver and my emotional well being. Besides all that, I set up an interview for CTY (please please pleaseeee I want it so bad) for which I have to prepare, in advance, a page-long "activity plan" for some kind of fun hour long summer camp event I could conceivably single-handedly pull together for x kids and x dollars within x hours. I have a phone interview scheduled for this Thursday and I'm totes skipping Russian history for it, too; anna karenina will have to forgive me.
I'm also grappling with how to take some middle-school french tutoring gigs without getting myself raped or killed or led into an opium den. Am I being too untrustworthy? Would a Manhattanite parent really look for a tutor for their kid on Craigslist? Or is that unsavory corner of the internet better left to obscure medical research opportunities and the pay-per-fetish industry?

Donnez-moi mon café, s'il vous plaît.

Une plaisanterie qui n'est pas et n'était jamais amusante:
"Small, light, and sweet, just like you, sweetheart?"

C'est difficile pour répondre, parce qu'on veut maintenir le "sweetness," mais "light" and "sweet" ne sont pas les mots que je utilise pour me décrire.
