So let me throw it back for you all circa freshman year
welcome week, which should be labeled – literally biggest slobfest of one’s
life. Whether it was awkwardly hooking up with the boy who lived across the
hall from you and never talking to him again (HEY TWINNIE), losing your shoes
at SplashBash (which is the epitome of an STD) and walking home barefoot, going
to Fifth Quarter (still don’t know where it was), or actually going to one of
the following (or all of them) – rAvEPi, Tight and Bright, Sig Black Out, or
any form of a white out party. #totalfreshmanmove
However, I was the biggest offender of all, PiKapps Foam
Party. Yes, I was there and as hard as I try, I can’t forget it. Let me start
by explaining part of my night, or at least what I think was that night. I
pregamed with my “friends”, because let’s be real, most Freshman Year Welcome
Week Friends – FYWWF for short, really won’t be your friends past October. So
as freshman do, we looked up on facebook to see what frats were throwing down.
Once we decided a game plan and tried to figure out the locations of where all
these frat houses were we were on our way. Usually lead by my dear Daniel
Chinsky – not sure if he was with us this particular night but still deserves a
shoutout – WHATUP CHINSKY!!!
So as you know freshman travel in herds and can be spotted
from miles away. Freshman if you are reading it, don’t be ashamed, we have all
been there. Anywho let’s skip forward to PiKapps Foam Party debacle. So if
anyone is familiar with PiKapps – I am assuming most people reading this aren’t
– it is on Lincoln next to the notoriously intriguing Metal Frat.
So my friends and I show up and are like “OMGZZZZ foam
party!!!!! We are soooo college!!” (If you knew me freshman year, I am sorry).
So we go up to the “bar” and get wonderful shots of something that resembles
rubbing alcohol, but let’s be real – now me and Crown Russe are like buds;
obviously not my drink of choice, but I can down that shit like a champ. Then
we decide to go outside and play, dance, mingle, do whatever co-eds do in the
foam.
So we are dancing, foam is pouring off the roof, music is
blaring, I don’t think I am wearing shoes anymore – but who cares I’M AT
COLLEGE WOOOHOOOO. Then it hits me. OWWW. My friends just stare at me and say
“Mira, OMG, are you okay!?!?” I rub my head, because it feels as if something
hit me, but I’m not sure, and right as I say “Yeah, guys I’m fine” I AM ON THE
FUCKING GROUND. Like yeah it sucks that I passed out, blacked out, got
concussed, or whatever you want to call it for a good 10 seconds, but it was on
the porch of PiKapps during their FOAM PARTY…. EWWWWW.
So after my friends lift me from the ground and sit me on
the bench, I realize I WAS HIT IN THE HEAD WITH A FUCKING GLASS FORTY. Some
genius at the metal frat thought “oh Hey, this is empty let’s just throw it
over the fence!” NOT COOL METAL FRAT BOY.
So after rubbing my head for about 2 minutes we decide the best thing
would be to GET MORE DRINKS! (Why I did not leave right then and there, I don’t
know) Somehow that story went viral with our friends, maybe it was because my
roommate was Zussman and she knows the world or maybe it was because I got hit
in the head with a glass forty and that’s fucking hilarious. But if that was
how Welcome Week Freshman Year was, you can just predict the next four years of
my life.
