32

I've never been close to anyone that's died yet, it's a shame about Aedan, though, dying relatively young. He was a very nice guy, doesn't really make a difference, but he was very nice. No real personal connection, though. 250 people, 2 known deaths in what, 4 years? That's not that bad, is it?

School is good - my new roommate is kind of a jackass. I think I've told many of you all the currently accumulated stories. Big collection of stuff. He's wealthy (parent-bought new BMW 528i), but seems to think he isn't. He's wealthy and has shitty taste. He's somehow from Miami, NY, and Los Angeles, all at the same time. Um, he loves to 'party', but doesn't seem to be very good at it. He has particular days for each of his muscle groups, so, he'll talk to friends and say things like "time to blow out my lats today" and like, make his friends compliment his back muscles (he's not ripped at all as far as I can see, just has that weird "tanned guy who goes to gym" look). He looks like he's short, even if he actually isn't. He uses the word "dummy" (yes) directly to friends a lot ("hey, you dummy, get over here"). Actually, he's just a general asshole to his friends.

I've been reading PG Wodehouse...the most inane subjects, but it's pleasant and funny. The books are collections of short stories about this happy, rich, stupid guy and his butler. It's a good change from the stuff I usually inflict upon myself.

Someone in a room about two doors away is playing "Music" again, that shit song by Eric Sermon. So, it's Sermon from EPMD, the hook is taken from Martin Gaye outtakes, and I think the beat is from a Martin Gaye song. EPMD and Martin Gaye, and somehow the song is still complete shit. The bass just radiates through...I've heard it tens of times this week.
