Bwog is back and better than ever from a long, crazy weekend. From celebrity meetups to scaring poor tourists away, here is a collection of the highlights of our Staff writers’ weekends. If you have any stories you would like to contribute, email us at tips@bwog.com and we will add it to this week’s edition!
Bwog and Food/Drink:
- Talked shit over vodka sodas with a friend like i was on Sex and the City.
- Ate a Stews meatball after it had fallen on the floor of an Academy bus (I think).
- Spent approx. 1/6th of my current remaining money on a dozen Absolute bagels.
- Pregamed the Olympic Opening Ceremony at an event called “Miracle on Smirnoff Ice.” Took a shot every time the NBC commentators made some dumb comment about nature and man being in harmony. Subsequently got wasted.
- Had a bomb smores reeses cake at an otherwise terribly-mediocre rowing party.
- Fought management at Carmine’s for a table.
- Ate fancy bread pudding with jalapeño ice cream.
- Got very drunk very quickly with my roommate. Ended up leaving Mel’s at 1 in a cab and we caused a scene in front of Appletree because I was screaming because my friend was trying to run back to Mel’s.
-
Drank Smirnoff Ice and listened to early 2000’s music whilst watching my friends fill out the Datamatch survey.
-
Got stoned and called a spa in the UWS that I frequent to ask them what their spaghetti policy is. Laughed harder than I should have for longer than I should have.
Bwog on Campus:
- Tripped on ice in front of a tour group (not Columbia affiliated?) and fell; screamed “FUCK” so loud when hitting the ground that I’m pretty sure I scared half of them away from ever coming back to Columbia. Bruised physically and emotionally from this.
- Watched a girl in JJ’s have a drunken breakdown over how much she misses Michelle Obama.
- Went to the gym????!! Wow.
- Slipped down, got up, then slipped down again on the Pupin stairs. They made the first bomb there or something why don’t those things have friction.
- Have been trapped in my room since Wednesday because of the flu…had to cancel every single one of my weekend plans :(
- Had to help my roommate back onto her bed after she fell off because she was too drunk.
- Finessed a single in 4-person Ruggles suite next year through being an RA rider.
- Ate at JJ’s after every night out this weekend. Later found out I gained 2 pounds :/
- Spent my whole Saturday hungover and was deciding whether to throw up in Butler or walk home in the rain. Chose the latter.
Bwog in the City:
- Screamed “I SWEAR I WAS AT A FUNERAL” whilst wearing a see through shirt when I saw my TA who gave me a paper extension at 1020.
- Spent a whole night lying down in the back booth of 1020.
- Went to Scranton.
-
Smoked one hit of a joint and got high enough to forget how to get home. Almost got on the 5 train then ran when I realized I needed the NQR. Then got off at 14th – union square because I thought I was at the 14th stop on the west side. Was sober by time I got home.
-
Made eye contact with Issa Rae.
-
Hugged Issa Rae.
-
Issa Rae told me to have a great semester.
- Chilled outside Junzi late night waiting for friends and listened to LITERALLY EVERYONE say “woah, Junzi is lit” as they passed by. Not a single person refrained from commenting about how lit Nunzi was. Not a single. person.
- Ran into several yung bwoggers at Junzi late night (which was indeed lit!)
- Had a really wholesome day at an art museum with my dad!
- Went downtown at 5 A.M. to try to get Waitress rush tickets. Awkwardly met my first year roommate in the line, who had been waiting since 2:30 AM. Didn’t get rush tickets.
- DJed Junzi late night.
- Got the band briefly lost in Connecticut. Spent 10 agonizing minutes watching the bus driver backed out of a dead end street.
- Went to the Met to see the Michelangelo exhibit and spent more time trying to get back than I did at the museum.
Bwog and Love:
- “Broke up” with my “boyfriend” of one week because I realized the last thing I want is a relationship right now.
- Was talking to a Bumble match and then he sent me a picture of himself with one of my old Tinder dates. I then had a convo with the Tinder date through the Bumble match.
- Planned my first-ever Valentine’s Day date! It’s over Skype but I’m counting it.
- Made out with a Catholic dude who later told me he was waiting for marriage.
- Plotted how to make my single gay classmate fall in love with me.
- Roommate got all gooey with her boyfriend while I was there and was actually nauseated.
- Set up three dates and flaked on them all. (Instead ended up with the Dora the Explorer heir again and watched his shitty movie that he sold to Netflix).
- Boyfriend visited and we got a hotel room because my roommate refuses to be sexiled.
Miscellaneous Bwog:
- Spent the weekend with my donkey named Jezebel.
- Slept. A lot.
- Used a toe nail clipper as an earring.
- Rewatched Westworld. Realized there’s more than one park!
- Stole a bouquet of inaugural flowers.
- Got hazed.
- Rearranged and deep cleaned my room.
-
Got addicted to the Olympics; tweeted many times about the Olympics; fell in love with Canadian television coverage of the Olympics.
- Went running in the pouring rain to get over my hangover.
- Got drunk at West End and tested Ernest Hemingway’s “write drunk, edit sober” theory. …he was wrong.
- Told a friend that I was going to a concert that I wasn’t planning on going to and then bought a ticket just so I wouldn’t get caught in a lie.
