The polo match went really well today. I scored a few goals, and rode some horses that I’ve never been on before (and liked them!). No Tink, and no Paloma, but STILL so much fun, and I actually noticed how much I’ve improved.

Hooray!
Rode Tink yesterday. Decided something (sorry to be vague, but just know that it’s a good thing). And just watched my fAVorite King of the Hill episode (“that’s my purse!”). All is right with the world.

Comparing Weekends
Last weekend was great. The one that just ended was not. Which is weird, considering what events actually took place.  For example, last weekend comprised of: a party with very few people I knew one night, and staying in and watching movies (by myself) the next. This weekend included: a night of hanging out briefly with the roommate, then a casual meet-up with friends, then a dance party, and...

Sometimes
… I wish that I were a boy. Because I love: - cufflinks - ties

Also:
A friend called me beautiful and smart tonight (though, to be fair, she was pretty trashed). But why did that make me more sad then if she had called me ugly or stupid? Why do compliments make me want to cry? And fight?

Addendum to Last Post
Also: I will not blame the fact that he doesn’t like me on the (supposed) facts that I am: - too fat - not smart enough - too acne-ridden - too ordinary - too amply-chested (more on this later).

AWESOME dream with [the-Good-Guy]
… crap! But I will be strong when I see him this Sunday. I will not: - Be sad that he doesn’t like me (or act like I am, anyway). - Let my feelings for him mess up our friendship. - Be awkward. On a completely unrelated note, my back/shoulders/neck are Killing Me. And I don’t know why. I’m not sure I should go to polo today (which is a silly thing to ask, really. It...

Great Day
The classes I took today were Awesome: - Italian 202 (different instructor this semester, and his is buffissimo! (really funny)). - Black English (for realz - this is a linguistic class, and, so far, is entertaining AND fascinating) - Ingres Seminar (magically, it turns out my interests in Ancient Greek art and Renaissance art are actually RELEVANT when it comes to studying this particular...

Sunday!
I was just at the polo barn for four hours. I rode three horses (none my all-time faves, but great horses: Sarah (haha, yeah there’s a horse named Sarah, and yeah the coach had me ride her), Giatita, and Batman). I feel cleansed, and the good kind of sore. I’m going to try going to the gym to do a little cardio tomorrow during the day, then polo starts up for realz for realz at 3.30....

Gaaaaah!Adlkfjaldioah!
That’s it, really. Just needed to get that out there. Status on New Year’s Res’s: so far… diary is being kept. No pictures. Feeling like I look like a fourty-five year old, and freaking out about it. (You see… there was this waiter… and it’s a long story). Can’t wait to go ride the ponies at the good ole’ polo barn, but not particularly...

New Year's Resolutions:
1. Stop leaving the party early. (Or, in other words, stick it out and sleep when you’re dead). 2. Eat slowly, and only until you’re full. 3. Say what you feel, or at least write it down. 4. Along those lines, keep a journal… maybe here? … and write in it every day, even in times of crisis. 5. When you drink, don’t cry. 6. Talk to friends more, even if it’s...
