Carnival was a blast. It was great seeing folks I haven’t seen since last year. It was great partying with them and just having a good time. It was great going to old haunts and enjoying ourselves like while we were in school. Makes me miss the good old days of school. Damn, I sound like an old fart already =PSince that seems like a vague as hell overview, here’s the beef:I got in Thursday night, in time to see Dave Attell (from Insomniac) perform at Carnival. The act opening for him sucker competely. I’m glad we started booing the hell out of him; the guy deserved it. He didn’t even bother researching his audience. CMU isn’t a bar. Don’t focus on jokes for bars. Dave fortunately saved the day. It was good.Spent most of the remaining night hanging out with some friends I partied with sophomore year. It was good seeing them again.Friday was mostly spent waiting for night to come so the parties would be kicking. Unfortunately, Norm is cursed and never has his cellphone on trips, and Dave wasn’t available to party. I ended up going to the good old PHI and drank a few pitchers with some old MechE friends and folks from my freshman floor.Saturday was full of paintballing. Lots of fun, even though it took us forever to get everyone at the UC turnaround so we could leave. Its always the folks with the cars who take the longest =)That night, went to the OC to get some food, then Club Joy to drink and do that karaoke thing. I didn’t, I don’t sing =P One of our companions got sick that night, but he ended up being ok.Sunday morning was torture. Breakfasts at 10am after a long night of partying are just painful. It was good to see some folks one last time before they headed off though. Found Michi that afternoon and hung out with her. More on that later… Went to D&B with Gaku and Chacko, shot some pool.Today was mostly full of me packing, then saying goodbye to everyone. Ate lunch with Michi for one last time in Pittsburgh, talked some, then went to my flight. I don’t think I’ll be back in Pittsburgh for a long time now. I could be wrong, but it just felt that way.I had to face a truth I’ve been avoiding since Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, that also means I’ll have to get over that truth now. I’m not sure why I was avoiding it, but whats done is done. I’m glad Michi’s been able to move on. I’m also glad we’re still good friends. At least some good came out of our relationship.Thats it, where’s my raman. =P
