despedida drama

so last week i learned exactly how chile says ciao. basically it fucks you real hard and doesnt cuddle afterward. was pretty pissed last week when i found out that my last quiz in my conflicto class got a 4 out of 7 even though i studied my ass off and was able to list all the shit said in the reading but basically couldnt cite the authors since the quiz covered over 20 articles...so now in order to not fail i need to rock the final project and the final project which is due this fri coming up is huge, just got deets on it
but first the paper with jen, then make up oral exam to make up for how bad i did last test in my other narrativa then conflicto on fri plus i got a final quiz for my lit theory plus the paper i missed for lit theory where he has put a bunch of new shit online that is not in the syllabus which i now have to search my ass off for in english but mostly im not finding anything which means i gotta somehow comprehend lit theory not just in spanish but translated into spanish then my final paper in my 2nd narrativa class is due monday the 3rd plus the final project in that class is due the fuckin 7th which is the day i leave.

so then, literally every single chilean classmate who i thought i was cool with flaked on my despedida, then so did the turbo who said he was coming and bringing some of his friends that i really wanted to see before leaving and i was like ok well thats fucking typical, he was like yeah i have to throw a birthday party for my friend...i thought to myself that i had literally made not even a single connection here thats strong enough to temp these folks into saying goodbye. i dunno it pissed me off i was like wow ive lived here for a year and this whole place has just walked by without doing more than staring at my strange hair or undressing me with thier eyes or trying to get into my pants or just ignoring all the stupid gringo shit i say or laughing at me but cant even get out to drink a fuckin beer...

so then the actual night of the despedida, i get this call from nacho1 who is like yeah i got yer invite and i cant make it but i wanna see you and say goodbye. you need to understand that we havent talked since the big drama...so anyway he came over and we talked. it felt good like closure or like maybe im not insane that i still think abt him or that hes still important to me. anyway it was good but definitely unexpected and threw me for a loop. we went for a walk and talked and then i headed back to the party...

few early birds arriving as i got back so im being rushed in and out the shower then ash is calling me i make a last minute wardrobe change my clothes attacking me i text her need consult she runs down says those pants are fine i say are they piratical enough i look fat in the other ones and she says yeah its good hurry and goes back up then i break another nail the bell starts ringing my hair isnt working fuckin adrian arrives and says you dont look like a pirate or like jack sparrow (hence the name-fucking adrian indicated this uncanny ability to say the wrongest possible thing like the time he walked in and nearly destroyed an outfit the ash and i had worked on for a month by saying she looked like she was going to the prom in a molly ringwald film) anyway i told him to fuck off ash started calling i worked on the hair and finally got upstairs

ok so flash fwd to the swiftly downed drink and the insanity of the pirate cowboy dance off which we won with the help of some fancy footwork by little jen and some serious shakin of the pirates booty by yrs truly...throat getting dry from growling arrrgh and drunkety drunk one of the monkey bros, daniel the cutie comes up and asks me if im single i go yeah are you he says yes and then says i wanted to do this for a while and the next thing i know hes kissing me, so this is a fuzzy confused drunken spanish moment where im like daniel is kissing me and then im like daniel is cute and then ash is like yo ra turbos here and sure enough there he is, so i go to say hi and he asks me if i have something for him to use to look more piratical and im like yeah so i take him downstairs and find him a bandanna and then the next thing i know hes kissing me and were sitting on my bed and im like woah how did that happen someone knocks on the door and its his friend so i slip past them both and upstairs...

he comes back up more drunken dancing ensues people start trying to fuck up my mix and the party starts winding down, i dont know when everyone left but they did and im left with a drunken turbo a confused k and the ash is having loud drama with nick i go up to turn the music off and discover rhea rolling around on the floor in the attic/closet where we stashed the compu and i laugh cause its so cramped and cold and dirty and then i turn the music down and switch the mix to something more appropriate then head back down say goodbye to k and im alone with ash and the turbo who is comforting her bc nick took off

later on she said man you were blasted usually id be like nicks being a jerk and yer all ill kill him my damn self! this time i was like hey youll work it out in the morning you love each other no big deal partly cause ive learned that i can be of no help in these sorta sitches and partly cause i just didnt feel like dealing

so of course the frickin turbo stayed and of course we hooked up and jesus mary and joseph that should be illegal, i even tried to avoid him again by going to take a shower knocked on leos door and was like leo help but he was passed out drunk...in the morning i said why did you abandon me and he said i was asleep and what was i gonna do and i said i dunno maybe you woulda said dont do it...

basically said the same thing to the ash and she said hey man i didnt make you do shit i just told you to talk to him and you were the one who said you wanted to talk to him and say goodbye and i was like yeah i just wanted to talk to him not sleep with his loudly snoring skinny self...

then i was like whatev it coulda been worse and i spose thats how chile say goodbye...lotta drunken drama and a mini replay of all the main conflicts, or at least thats what i thought as i curled into my bed with the t glancing at the exact spot where nacho had been mere hours before and changing the subject mentally...

now the aussie is leaving tom on vaca and i have a bajillion assignments so i will be packing or studying until i leave. fuckin ciao po.
