After spending my afternoon with the pledge sis at Balboa Park for free museum Tuesdays, I headed back and spent the latter half of my afternoon and evening between the two houses. Pride and Prejudice was playing at Alpha which was fine but was made even better after Sandlot took freshly baked cookies out of the oven and I scarfed them. Matrix was telling me how a group of girls got together to walk the streets, passing out letters, in search of a new ΑΔΧ house. It's a stretch but does anyone remember that movie called Enough, starring J.Lo, where her husband buys the house she wants (which was not for sale) by offering the owner an offer he couldn't refuse? Well I think Ferrari should just walk up to a door with the ΑΔΧ checkbook and say, "Here's the deal, I'm going to write you a check and you're going to move out otherwise I'll have to remove you myself." And then show 'em the guns. Bada bing bada boom, we have a new house.
Speaking of Ferrari, she was giving Corvette her first lesson in cooking raw meat. The meal was Chicken and Rice; it couldn't have been more amusing to watch. Dropping the rice bag into water before it was boiling, the chicken looking like rubber, and the constant angst that it will just taste terrible gave us all a good laugh. But in the end it turned out well! Corv, you will make a good wife one day and your signature dish will be teriyaki chicken and rice with mixed veggies. Well done. After getting a free ravioli dinner out of Rarri we all moved into the living room (which I might add is so sick since the "remodel") to watch American Idol and play some Uno. As we felt sorrow and pity for some of those beyond terrible singers, Nikko (ΑΓΩ) was playing draw fours and skips on me as well as Miata conspiring with the table against Matrix and Tootsie, in the end, pulled out the win. It was everything an Uno game should be, screaming, cheating, reverses and compiled draw twos bringing the pain to whomever it ended up on. Usually me.
Outside of the Omega residents, Venetian, Kendra, Sandlot, myself and Nasa, Nikko, Lalo, Lotus, and Shox (all ΑΓΩ) all found our spots on the couch to have a roaring good time. Question of the night: If you could go on MTV's Made what would you want to be made into?
I want to be Made into an American Gladiator!

An afternoon at Omega
Once upon a Sunday afternoon, a group of girls gathered to study for finals.
This, however, is the true story of what really happened.
Books, notes and computers in hand...more or less a convincing picture of what studying looks like but honestly, we like the finer things in life and there is no room for studying. Nothing is more important than finding out which Spice Girl you are, irregardless if you have a 10 page paper due tomorrow. Get your priorities straight! There were overwhelming results in the name of Scary and Baby. Phew, no dykadelic vibes coming from that house. Except for maybe coming from the gnome who sits atop the Christmas tree but he is a boy so his comments by no means count as dykadelic. Aside from getting about 8 pages read in your book, a few paragraphs written in your paper, and actually opening the folder which houses your notes we all just had fun. The fun that only results from cheating the advent calendar and gorging yourself on miniature chocolates and an Asian napping on the couch while girls are screaming and Teeny chills on the coffee table. I was hoping for some excitement in the way of the kitchen flooding or the Christmas tree melting but the closest I got was a ridiculously loud shower. It was like a handful of nails were racing to the shower head to be the first out to stab Juju in the eye. We all bid our farewells to Olympia while Baby ate her Trujillo's and Rocko watched. It's what I call quality time at Omega and something I might have to make my Sunday afternoon tradition.
So now that you can stop checking the blog, you can actually get back to studying. Right....

PS. I'd like a mic with a whip attached for Christmas. I feel like that would come in handy when guarding the house against those pesky boys!
