Remember on week one when I told you #BreakTheRules was purposely set up so that I would fail? WELL HERE COMES JOHNNY.
I had this pretty awesome plan to go explore a super haunted bar in Northern Kentucky with a tribe of lesbian ghost hunters but that fell through for two reasons.
1. I have a penis and they didn’t want me there. Regard this email…
^^ I never responded, deleted everything, and ran away screaming like a school girl.
2. Charter Day Ball was on Saturday and I bet it was WAAAY better.
^^ The dance floor in Elsa’s snowpalace was so SMALL and we were so HOT. Shut up.
After the last second switch I was in a total scramble to come up with an alternate plan for the week. My favorite professor, (the cat’s out of the proverbial bag) Friedman, directed my attention towards a blog called, “100 Days of Rejection Therapy.” In a nut shell, Jia Jing aims to get rejected by making crazy requests and breeding uncomfortable situations for 100 days. Things like getting a haircut from Petsmart, make an announcement of a plane, asking strangers to rate his look and 97 more. The whole venture is a home run. This little number caught my attention…
Day 68: Exchange Secrets with Strangers
I had to do it. Who doesn’t love a good secret? I want the juice and I want it now.
Our approach was pretty much the same as Jing’s… BUST up to someone in the Armstrong Student Center and ask them to exchange a secret with us. The only difference between between my experiment and Jia Jing’s is that we didn’t get rejected. People were so incredibly open and willing to share. I was completely taken aback but mostly delighted. Almost every person Jamie, Jeff, and I talked to were so scared of us that they just starting juicing (gross, sorry) with us like we were best friends already. HOW COOL IS THAT?
Since I have been really open booking it recently, and partially because I have zero EFF’s to give anymore, and you shouldn’t either, I will now disclose the secrets I exchanged with strangers…
1) Once I hit my sister so hard with a pillow an ambulance had to come to our house. She’s 4 years older, get it together.
2) Once I slept walked and peed all over my sister’s book case, I was 17 and we didn’t notice until weeks later when it started to smell.
3) Before I tell this story… Any runner will tell you that running does weird things to your bowels. I’M NOT A FREAK OK. Over the summer I was running around the track at Cook Field and REALLY had to go to the bathroom. The Cook Field bathrooms were locked ARE YOU KIDDING ME WHY DID YOU BUILD THEM? so I waddled over to the Marcum Center to use the bathroom. Let’s just say I didn’t make it. I lost control on the floor and had to pick it up with my hands. Yes that was like 3 months ago.
Get all your giggles out? Super.
I will now count down my most moist JUICIEST secrets that the Stags & I collected over the past week after exchanging with hundreds of people.
