Facebook Nonsense

Earlier when I was looking at my news feed on FB, I found a very interesting string of comments made by two girls that were my roommates during my internship while I was in Washington DC in the Spring of 2008.  The comments were:

Girl 1: Love your picture!!!! Reminds me of some good times.

Girl 2: Yes..it’s hard to believe it was so long ago…Over 18 months ago! I miss it! Can you believe Sophie and Marc are still together? Nobody saw that coming! I’m definitely happy for Sophie though.

I found this comment very intriguing given the fact that I not talked to either of this girls since we left DC.  Yes, Marc and I are still together, happily in love.  I know, it’s crazy to think how our relationship started since we were both roommates and it’s now 20 months later.  Knowing full well I might be over analzying this but I do get a bit of passive agressiveness in the last two sentences. “Nobody saw that coming!” and “I’m definitely happy for Sophie though.”  It’s like being happy for a person you know even though what you think they are doing is stupid and you would never do it yourself.  Yes, I know, I’m over-reacting about these little statements (what else is new) but I just think it’s funny.  Oh well.  C’est la vie!

Things Dana Has Ruined For Me…

So here is some back story, last year, my senior year in college, I lived with my former best friend, Dana, and my current best friend, Ashley.  At the time though, my former was my current and my current was a good friend.  Well, in the summer of 2008 Dana went to study abroad in Russia.  According to her “it changed her” even though she never told me why.  As the fall semester of 2008 progressed, Dana went crazy.  I’m sure exactly how to explain it but she did.  The following is a list that because of her, I no longer enjoy or like or try to avoid these things.  Of course I am not the sole collaborator of this list.  Ashley, her former roommate of two year and my boyfriend Marc who knew her very well also contributed to their findings.  Mind you, this is what I can currently think of.  I know that as something happens to me I will of think of how Dana has ruined such aspect in my life.  This is a work in progress.
