YAY!!
FINALLY beat bubble bobble! it’s been so long, i’ve forgotten what the happy end actually looked like. been bugging my roommate for the past couple of weeks (since i rediscovered the game) to help me beat the game ’cause you need 2 players in order to get the happy end. and today, after much playing (and her nearly beating the game on her own before we were both unable to pop the monster in time), we finally beat the game.
man! i would’ve liked to have posted a screenshot of bub and bob with our girlfriends but alas, my emulator didn’t allow me to take a screenshot. and plus, bub and bob aren’t as cute now that they’re not dinosaurs. here’s a screenshot of the message that has been haunting me for the past few weeks…. NO MORE! 
now i can go to sleep happy…. (though i have wasted the past few hours playing the game again trying to discover more of the secrets! so addictive!!!)
on a completely random note: i went to DC with some high school friends this weekend. there were some friendly guys who talked to us. (nice guys compared to the boring MIT guys who tried to hit on mariam the first time 
or that drunk 19 year old jerk from the other time 
) apparently, they knew of my sister. (who doesn’t?!) well i hadn’t had a chance to ask my sister yet since she’s really busy at med school, but then she posted a xanga entry in which a friend of her’s IMed to say that some friends met my friends and i. whoa… this, in combination with meeting my sister’s high school friend nancy (who knows most of the CMU/DC people i know) AND the CMU/DC people knowing a girl who went to the same chinese school i went to when i was a kid and who somehow ended up in the same apartment building as my sister in NYC… leads me to believe that it is indeed too small of a world. i have decided that i am moving to montana, where hopefully no one knows my sister.
