Hey everyone, being how many of us are new here I thought it would be cool to know where everyone is from and whatnot.
My name is Alicia and im from Illinois(States) and im in my 4th year as a college student. I plan on teaching History when I graduate.
I'm a huge fan of music in general, so feel free to IM me anytime.
Hope to talk to you laters.

Im suck here in the middle of a boring state and its hot over herreee. Ive always lived in Illinois and nevered traveled anywhere. Such a pity. Thank goodness for AIM and MB's. Music wise, my fav. artists are Coldplay (of course), John Mayer, Jack Johnson, Howie Day, Damien Rice, and Norah Jones. If you wann know some more about them let me know because i can talk about their music for 'forever and a day' (Im so not kidding either, ha)
Im also known for frequent misspellings (did I even spell that right?)
peace out.
Alicia
I'm a wannabe Brit but San Francisco suits me very well. :lol: Dude...for everytime I fall in love with Radiohead I do it with Coldplay 6 times more. What's with me and the foreign bands?! :D

Jenz- I hear that!
Hows Ca treating ya today?
Alicia
I sit here with a tank and pants on and still hot as hell. It's quite a warm day. SF has weird weather patterns so our summer is in September and October. But thanks for asking! How're things on your end?
ibcnu299
10-09-2002, 10:51 PM
H-O-T-T hot! i have 2 fans in my dorm which are pointed in my direction at all times. My dorm doesnt have AC but the warm weather only lasts for about a month or so. Plus I have my own room so i dont have to put up with roomates or such.. I learned to just say no to roomates Freshman year. no big deal. I have some friends who live in CA... around Vacaville, i think.
Alicia
Ouchies. We have the window open but that's about it. We're also on the 6th floor of the dorms so we don't get the sun so much, and more breeze as well. :D You may wanna check to see if your buddies in Vacaville didn't fry...it's so h-o-t there too!
ibcnu299
10-09-2002, 11:00 PM
HA. I bet my friends are cool as ice cubes. Yeah i live on the first floor about 50 feet across from the boys dorm..(yes please!) I'm also an imsomniac so im usually up really late like last night. I think i finally woke up around 2pm today. I need sleep like no other.
Alicia
I was up til 4 this morning doing Scribbles.... (glares at Ian...then runs, tramples with a pillow, and hugs him) :D The boys' side of the first floor smells like ass, and the girls' side smells like a really bad brothel with all kinds of perfumes mixed together. Thank God for co-ed floors and a chemically okay balance of smell :lol:

two words that will change your life: GLADE PLUG-IN
my room smell like a rainforest dream. its all good. I even hooked up my boys in the other dorm with some good smelling plug-ins. they even tried to steal them from me!
Jenz- do listen to NetRadio or whatnot? if so you should check out my friends site. www.dreamsawake.com its got some cool tunes on it.
alicia
Hahahahahaha :lol: boys just don't get the fact that they perspire differently than girls! :) I think I need to invest in a room freshner soon then, whooo.
I don't listen to netRadio just yet as I still have to upgrade my Mac to OS X Jaguar status, but when I do I'll be sure to give dreamsawake.com a listen. :D

I'm from Huntington, West Virginia. Maybe the second biggest city in WV, which is pitiful.
I liked it there, the lights and stuff... it probably sounds stupid to people who live in cities...
It's too bad we moved tons of times and now we live in a small town... not gonna say where...
