Summer vacation is over. I’m taking eight classes this fall; I hope I can cope with all of them. If not, I’ll just drop one. I hope I don’t have to, though, even if French seems like a huge monster staring at me with its green snake eyes.<\/p>\n
Anyway, our Colombian cold, cloudy, windy, rainy, absolutely non-summery summer is over. Summer, given its lack of obligations, is a good time for young people (like myself) to gather around and party. Partying is supposed to be an extremely fun activity. Party-goers forget all of their daily worries for a couple of hours, meet new people, dance, talk, and drink.
\n
There’s even a lot of food during some of these gatherings. Parties are also useful to meet one’s dream partner… at least one’s temporary dream partner. You know how it goes: you chat with somebody, and that somebody turns out to be quite compatible. Many relationships begin as casual encounters during parties.<\/p>\n
Oh yeah, it’s supposed to be one hell of an activity.<\/p>\n
Except that I don’t enjoy it.<\/p>\n
I wonder why my Personality chip didn’t bring a Party Compatibility Set<\/span>, or better put, a Big Meeting With Lots of Strangers Your Own Age Performing Activities Which Are Perfectly Normal and Enjoyable for Your Age Compatibility Set<\/span>. I don’t remember having incredible lots of fun at my friends’ parties. I don’t remember loving school dances, even though I was lucky enough to find a dance partner at some point of the event. Of course they never asked me for my phone number, so I never saw them again.<\/p>\n Another thing: I can’t meet new people. I am socially incapable of meeting people. Especially at large gatherings. Get me into a large gathering and see if I make a new friend. My Score: 0<\/span>. I really have no idea how I spoke to Minori at Jaime’s birthday party. I mean, I actually came close to him and asked him if he had come alone! When else has that happened in Olavia Kite’s life? NEVER! NEVER EVER! <\/span>I guess love makes you pretty courageous (even though I had no idea then on what would happen during the rest of my life in Dubuque).<\/p>\n So… Oh yeah, alcohol. One great component of the average party. If you’ve got alcohol, you’ve got the party started, dude. Nice. I don’t drink. No, it’s not forbidden in my house. No, I don’t belong to a religion which prohibits it. I simply dislike it. And I don’t understand why you should get drunk to have fun. Of course, there is a big gap between the sober and the intoxicated. If you’re sober, you’re simply out of it all. So… I’m always out of it all.<\/p>\n And thus, Olavia Kite ends up doing stuff which involves little or no social interaction with people her age. Summer vacation is over. I’m taking eight classes this fall; I hope I can cope with all of them. If not, I’ll just drop one. I hope I don’t have to, though, even if French seems like a huge monster staring at me with its green snake eyes.
