Bwog may not be the dancing queen, but we definitely had the time of our life this past week.

Bwog had a dream, a song to sing:

• Had a long talk with my dad about life and college
  • Felt very pressured to do well
  • But also reassured that everything will be okay in the end
• Dreamt that I had been cast as Elsa in the Frozen musical and had to perform without even looking at the script
  • Woke up in a FRIGID sweat
  • (Yes, I woke up before I actually performed)
• Sat on the beach with a bunch of Greek women and complained about men, which felt very Mamma Mia
• Saw the sun and had decent-ish air quality for the first time in like a month 

Bwog said SOS:

• Stressed about a group project
  • Am still stressing about the group project
• Cried because I couldn’t successfully roll out pizza dough
• Was immeasurably sad
  • Then I took vitamin D gummies and everything was okay after that
• Cried at the final episode of Schitt’s Creek 
• Was told by numerous members of my friend group that my main personality traits are “horny” and “lonely”
• Made a traditional Balinese puppet model for my class at 1 am while sobbing
• FaceTimed my friends to tell them I simped over Noah Beck…
  • It was a lapse of judgment that has since passed

Bwog learned the name of the game:

• Got a job!
• Went to office hours for the first time
  • Waited patiently as number #24 for 1:1 sessions during said office hours
• Called a friend for three hours
  • Talked about love and loss and capitalism
  • The conclusion: dismantle the government
• Had an enlightening violin lesson
• Got so many mosquito bites during the five minutes I stood outside
• Got a note from my doctor begging me to go outside because no amount of supplements could fix my vitamin D deficiency

And Mamma Mia, here Bwog goes again:

• Accidentally drank my roommate’s parents’ $550 bottle of wine
• Made noodle kugel
  • Almost gave myself carbon monoxide poisoning because I didn’t know how to work my oven
• Watched Mamma Mia 2 with my best friend
  • Made a detailed timeline exposing the various chronological loopholes
  • Proved that Sam is Sophie’s dad
• Procrastinated my readings by learning TikTok dances 
• Reorganized my kitchen instead of doing homework
• Got drunk and started fighting about interpretations of Plato
• Gave a 30-minute lecture about Sufjan Stevens to my poor parents at dinner because I don’t have enough friends who listen to Sufjan and are willing to listen to me!
• Missed lab because fuck time zones
• Felt a strong urge to drop out
  • A very strong urge
• Spent $50 on leggings at TJ Maxx
  • I definitely only intended to spend $15 on sweatpants
