So I'm reading all the recent blogs and I'm seriously glad I'm not the only one who misses BAmma but DUDES AND DUDETTEs, whats with all the miserable feelings! Bamma was supposed to tranform us for the better!! I'm just kidding :)
After Bamma, I spent a week in a oven New Mexico helping facilitate a training called the Youth Organizer Training Institute. How much college life do I need? After living two weeks on SF State U I spent another week with cockroaches and bad cafeteria food. The lodging at SF STate ruled though! I'm totally prepared for college at least for the part in which you eat and sleep. Where I once had trouble sleeping in new places not I can just pop in earplugs and snore away.
Anyways so one night I'm joggin on the track field with my friends and I happen to wear a jersey from the Chinese olympics. Despite my short and no way near athletic stature, some idiots mistook me for a Chinese Olympics soccer player. I'm glad they didn't ask me for an autograph, but seriously, if I wore a Giants Jersey I'm sure no one would have made that mistake. I should take their astonishment as a compliment though. How often do you see a Chinese person in New Mexico?
After New Mexico, I'm now preparing for school. With a mixture of dread, excitement and new knowledge from my reenergizing summer I should be totally ready to face SATs, College apps, AP classes, personal statements and so on... but I'm as Jackie would say: "frackin" nervous.
I miss the craziness of Bamma that was a home away from home (literally since I will still in sf) where the deepest and silliest discussions would happen simply because there was nothing better to do or worry about.
HOW THE HELL DID YOU POST A PICTURE? I TRIED LAST TIME AT BAMMA AND IT FAILED MISERABLY!
