Poncho Returns to NYC

Before I can go any further I must say right now:this has been one of the best weekends of my life! Also, I apologize for the potential length of this blog. I have a lot to say and some photos to share. Bear with me....things could get interesting.

This weekend was the longest period of time I have spent away from my sweet llama since she moved in; a time made longer by the fact that we were on opposite ends of the country. It was nonetheless a fantastic trip! My darling Tyler and I embarked on a whirlwind of college scouting goodness in the one, the only, New York City. What a man. And what a weekend it was.

Friday:
We were getting ready by 4:45 am and at the airport by 6:15, and while I can put on the excellent show of hopping out of bed to get the alarm, I can assure you that it takes all my concentration to be that perky and alert at that hour. *Pat on back for me* The plane was like any other. Although it was made much more entertaining by reading Tina Fey's Bossypants and observing the uber-Gaga fan sitting next to me. He was all decked out in her T-shirt, and earbuds and blasting her music the entire flight. I have to say though, nothing was more entertaining than watching the Rachel Zoe Project with no sound. Let me take this moment of vanity and tell you: my dialougue is much better than the real thing.
Upon arriving at JFK my mother attempted photo documentation. You will never see these photos as I have made it my mission in life to destroy all evidence of those atrocious photos. I'm gonna be looking for a new mission in life pretty damn soon.
Our beautiful, spunky, and marvelous host Paula welcomed us to her Brooklyn abode and made eight of the most magically delectable pizzas mine mouth hath ever devoured. For reals.

Saturday:
We were out of the house by 8:45 and off to the F train. After a marvelous encounter with the wonders of the New York Subway system, we were in the Upper West Side and just sliding into our appointment at Fordham University at Lincoln Center. Let me just say that those dorms were GIGANTIC!!!!!!!! If you want to live apartment style with a view on the Upper West Side as a freshman this is your school. It was a pretty sweet fucking deal. Excuse my brief foray into the land of profane speech. It's been known to happen on occasion. We left that center of Jesuit learning for Lincoln Center where we were once again pulled into a photo-op but this time I have no trouble sharing it with you. We came out looking a little like this

And all of the above was quickly followed up by a stroll in Central Park where we proceeded to be documented in ways that wound up looking like this

And then we journeyed to Jersey where we enjoyed some quality time with my triplet cousins and made some magical homemade pasta. 

Sunday:

Oh boyo! The day of all days! The day my college seeking heart found a home! NYU is my mecca. At least for (hopefully) the next four years. It's time to start brainstorming potential bank jobs. I'm gonna need as much financial support as possible and let's face it: FAFSA will be no help. Maybe I could get celebrities to sponsor my cause and throw a charity night in my honor. Or I could just resort to claiming I'm a questioning youth. My personal statement would go something like this--

"I just don't know who I am. I look at girls and I think they're pretty, but then I look at

boys and think the same thing! I can't make up my mind. I need a safe and

accepting environment to discover the nether-regions of my sexuality."

To illustrate our time at NYU I have put together a photo story. See below.

and this day culminated in yet another photo story in the loft where I was sleeping. We tried to be hipsters but that failed and we reverted to our true personalities.

Sweet baby jesus this turned out to be long. Sorry. Hope you enjoyed my brief brag session about NYC!!!!!!!!!

Sincerely, Poncho

The Briefest of Updates

This is gonna be a quick one because I am currently up to my perfectly formed eyeballs in essay writing.

So much has taken place in the past week.

• Hannah and I went to Seattle with some dear friends of ours and enjoyed good coffee, good music and an all around good time. That was a big Yay!
• I finished, and turned in, my senior project application. Even bigger YAY!
• I performed my first song of the year. That one is on par with the previous YAY!
• People graciously complimented me on said song and I was asked repeatedly to perform it again. In this matter I am utterly flattered and also a bit nervous that if you continue to love my creative work I might awaken one morning to find a compliment from myself. It might read: Clara--you got it goin on. Keep writing sweet melodies. --Clara. This would be supremely unhealthy. Hubris is not good for a poncho, they  start getting all huge and hairy. Have you ever seen a hairy poncho? Keep it that way.
• Oh, and I was in attendance at a magnificent sweater party. YIPPEEE!
• Plus, there was a SOTA showcase downtown yesterday. The audience for which was not entirely comprised of SOTA affiliates. Triple YIP!

And on that note:

1. Roswell--you-re always wonderful
2. Gina--your voice gets stronger everyday
3. Riley--I had no idea
4. and Bucky Virginia--you guys have some serious chops. Nicely done!

Dear god I need to join a band.
Alright, it is time for me to exit the world of cyber word vomit and reenter the realm of my Vietnam War paper. Alas...
Sincerely, Yibbsy

Sweet Llama and Tender Poncho

SO MUCH. Ahhh so much has happened! Everyone is like "o.m.g, you like, totes need to update your blog" and here is my face:



SO yeah. There is a lot on the plate for two high school seniors.
Perhaps not as much as the plate of a 35 year old mother of 4.
Or a 17 year old mother of 1.
Or a brain surgeon with marital issues.
But I think my stress is valid. I mean... who's to say it's not? Oh... you are saying it's not? Well stop reading my blog mutha fucka. (Clara had nothing to do with the swearing, it's all on me, for the record.)

Ok, sorry. Here's what happening:
I have homework, looming performances, college apps, senior project, and HELLA SPIDERS ALL OVER MY ROOM. Not like, all at once. It started off slow, one... then a week later, another. This week has been the mother load, an average of 1.3 spiders a day. (Monday it was 0, yesterday was 2... stats are weird.) They just really stress me out, because... I mean, I don't WANT to kill them. But... they can't just run rampant all over my room. I'm pretty sure they want to eat me! I'm also pretty sure that they are actually some wizard's animagus, and I don't fancy squashing the next Minister of Magic because he's stopping in on his way to some conference (with the mayor of Tacoma?) and he just so happened to stop into the dungeon.

The dungeon is quite toasty now that I have mastered my little space heater. The walls are decorated, my clothes litter the floor, incense is periodically lit.... and spiders are shitting on my parade. I can't sleep at night, in my nice-smelling, wonderfully-messy, personally decorated, toasty warm dungeon! And that, my friends, is what we call a PROBLEM.

On a completely different note:
Clara and I have stumbled upon pet names for each other. We were napping the other day... and she felt the urge not to call me by my given name (Hannah), and has now christened me: Llama.
And I have dubbed her Poncho. So now, in the blog, I think we will be referring to each other as such from this point on... so. yeah.

Aaaaaaaannnnnnnd. I feel like I'm rambling, but at the same time I have a lot to say about a lot of things. Poncho has just suggested that we go eat pot-stickers (we haven't eaten a proper dinner, and its almost 11pm) and I think I have to agree. A more coherent blog is in the near future, enjoy the cray cray while its still laughable.

Yibbsy Out.
