Awful Mac N Cheese

So yesterday Flute Jim, Marley, and I tried to tackle a homemade meal.  This meal consisted of grilled hot dogs, hamburgers, macaroni and cheese, and plain noodles (Marley doesn't like mac n' cheese).  This was a good plan in theory, I'm a pretty good cook.  I mean, I'm not like my roommate who blows up microwaves. However, I didn't realize I'm the only good cook out of the three of us.

I left Flute Jim in charge of the macaroni and cheese, since he's made it before.  I don't know how it hard it is to screw up Easy Mac, but somehow he managed to do just that.  It tasted super buttery and he overcooked the noodles. It was just a mess.  But I felt weird about throwing away a huge pot of Easy Mac out, it's not good to waste things.  So what do we do, call our friend Cass.  He was sure to eat it.

Flute Jim calls him up, and we wait.  It must have taken Cass at least twenty minutes to thirty minutes to show up to our apartment.  That may seem like a reasonable amount of time, but he lives only a floor up.  It should really take him like five.  It took him so long because he went to Flute Jim's apartment instead of mine, and had to walk all the way back for terrible Easy Mac.  It was probably the funniest thing ever.

P.S. Thankfully, Cass liked the macaroni and finished the entire pot.  God only knows how he liked it though.

Finals Week Preparations

Finals week is fast approaching.  Yikes!  The only comfort that I have in finals week is that after I somehow get by it will be winter break, and I finally get to go home.  I'm so excited, honestly.  As much as I love Pittsburgh, I miss my crazy stupid friends and Long Island.  Plus my family, it's been too long.  Anyway, with finals week only a few short days away you'd think my roommate, Marley, and I would try and get some studying in early.  Or at least that's what you might think if you didn't know us well.  Or maybe you do know that the two of us studying for finals early is complete crap, which it is.  So instead we filled our "studying" time with more stupid and fun things.

What were these stupid things, well for one we spent at least two and a half hours making stupid videos and posting them on our friends's walls.  In actuality, we only ended up finishing two of these videos, mostly because we wanted them to be funny, planned out, and awesome.  Getting all of these components in one  shot was a challenge, which is why it took us two hours.  That and the fact that I was falling all over the place, literally. We did this parody of Gangnam Style by PSY and at one point in the video Marley pushes me out of the way.  Of course me being me flies across the room taking down anything in my path.  I swear my shoulder is still sore from crashing into our lounge chair.  Also the universe was not on my side at all that night, it's like it knew I had a final I should be studying for and made sure I'd trip over every little obstacle that crossed my path.  Overall, it was a good time and while I am now forever embarrassed on Facebook (yes these videos are on Facebook...) it was a far better way to spend the night than to study for my Music Final.

P.S. The best comment on these videos by far was from my friend Nick who responded "What the crap."  Clearly, he forgot how weird and stupid Marley and I can really be.  Never underestimate our weirdness haha
