cornell roadtrip

| No Comments

i just looked thru my old post archives, trying to find out the last time id been back to cornell. i looked for like, a minute. then i thought, hey man, thats alot of effort for a post that will probably barely scrape a paragraph. so my brain revised my plan and i decided to just jump right into the post.

the ny cornell crew (whats left of it anyhoo) decided to take a roadtrip up to cornell this past weekend to visit alice, whos studying and doing ungodly things in order to get her mba. we were actually supposed to head oot friday nite. but the weather forecast was grim, so we revised the departure time to early saturday morning. friday nite tho, i did meet anna and sean to check out some gallery party thingy where they were supposed to be finalists in a competition. they werent tho...they wuz lied to yo. bitches. the beer wasnt even free...le sigh. we marinated for about half an hour before bailing and going to get food at luzzo's instead. yum.

saturday morning we headed up to cornell to inhale something other than the belch that is nyc air. the trees on the way up were turning a thousands shades of autumn, so we took like a bajillion pictures of trees. like two made it to flickr. we got to ithaca before lunch and immediately went about hitting all the requisite "nostalgia" sites. ithaca bakery, gimme coffee (ok, new to me), collegetown, sibley, rand hall, etc. that lasted only a few hours tho, so we vegged out in alices apartment too. we did other stuff...and ate you know, food...and stuff. but getting into those details requires effort, and i have laundry to pick up. so look, link to flickr, hooray!

sunday night already...shit-sticks.

SECRET SUNSHINE
last tuesday i caught up with sally to go see secret sunshine at the new york film festival. it was an interesting movie, to say the least. long, and all kinds of fucked up. im too lazy to go into the details, but yea...fucked up.

OOLONG YO
friday was a nice home-cooked meal at g+r's place. eggplant parmesan and all kinds of italian goodness. <3 i also brought my tea set with me since my new thing is taiwanese tea. h'ok, backing up a bit...i always enjoyed having tea with one of my uncles in taiwan. and during my last trip a few weeks ago, he gave me some taiwanese oolong and pu-er tea to bring back with me. my moms a big connoisseur of tea too, so she gave me one of their extra tea sets to enjoy my tea with. woo! so i brought my tea set with me so we could enjoy some oolong after dinner (r <3's tea also). i tried my best to emulate my uncles methodologies (hes a pro yo). the oolong was easy to brew...the pu-er not so much. i felt like i was brewing skunky mulch or something, but the tea turned out yum (whew). i think i need to confer with my mom again tho about the right amount of pu-er to toss into the pot.

REMAINDERS
