Okay. I'll let you in on it, too.

My best friend in the entire program, Carly, left on Friday to see her brother in Sicily and travel around with him before she goes home.

But for me, it was the final day I'd get to see her...until hopefully my graduation party this summer.

It was a very sentimental goodbye, and I wanted to make her a video with all the crazy footage I got of her, because she was the star for a majority of it.

I originally made the video unsearchable, but that proved to be difficult to view for some reason. I made it public on Youtube, and since I made it public there, I figured I'd share it with you all here.

Now, there is a lot of inside jokes in the video, some of which I will try to explain below:
-The "classy as fuck" line by me refers to how we would sometimes use "as fuck" in inappropriate ways, so as to ruin the classiness of the sentence. "That baby is as cute as fuck" and "this is sentimental as fuck" are some examples.
-My dancing: we always wanted to make a dance/sing video but it never was made. Plus, I know how many times Carly acted like a fool on camera for me, so I wanted to reciprocate. Also, the "check out my bum" line was intentional in that sometimes I would accidentally brush up against her butt and she would joke that I was checking her out.
-"This is as exciting as balls" was the same as the "as fuck" line...just a little more strange, and based on how someone we knew talked
-The bus driving away: The actual last time I ever saw Carly...on her bus to Valencia.
-Carly's comments about booze and weed were exact quotes from two of the guys we were walking to the bars with. They were so ridiculous that Carly wanted to mock them on camera.
-Carly mouthing "fuck you! fuck you all!" was in reference to the fact that she, melanie, and I were secluded from the group when we went to the beach. I panned the group (who were all facing away from us) and Carly shared her innermost sentiments.
-The pic of me and Carly staring into eachother's eyes was based on a music video of Bono and The Edge playing in the bar we were at.
-Me feeding carly in cooking class: We stole half the bag of chocolate chips and I would snack on them when no one was looking. When carly was busy chopping, I had to feed her.
-Carly's odd crisscross runway walk: based on an episode of America's Next Top Model
-Marco Polo: Some weird guy who approached Carly in Valencia


The rest is just plain strange footage of us being weird. If only I could capture her trademark weird sound effects. You can hear one when she says "What the-*raerr*" while playing digital solitaire.


Now that you are "in the know," I guess you can watch it.


On to the video already!
