The weekend before last, I went to Washington, DC, and among other things, saw the Terra Cotta Warriors at the National Geographic museum with [profile] sunnyrea and [profile] kutiechick.

Also, here is a photo of us with my new boyfriend:

He doesn't have much of a sense of humor, but he is very consistent and useful as a coatrack.

He's kind of hot. I'd hit it - I mean, what? I'd never say something like that.

Plus, I didn't know you knew [livejournal.com profile] kutiechick! Small world - she and I went to college together, but didn't know each other (despite the fact we were both English majors). We found each other on LJ Idol and friended each other, and have since remarked almost weekly that it's strange we never met in college. Weird. But it goes to show how frakkin' tiny this world seriously is.

No way! [livejournal.com profile] sunnyrea also went to Hood, and I know two other people in their class-- one whom I met them through, another through a roleplaying game-- were you the same year?

I'd hit it, too, if not for the bruised knuckles.

Not sure who [livejournal.com profile] sunnyrea is, but I was at Hood from 2004-2007, so there's a chance I may know who he/she is. That is so, so strange, especially considering how small Hood is...

You could always hit it with a stick. I'd found that to work. ;)

I'll let her decide whether to give out personal information in an unlocked post, but her name is Rebecca and she is the other girl in the photo (the one who is not Katie or me).

Ahh, yes, I have a general idea of who she is, then. I thought she looked familiar in the photo :)

She's the roommate I told you was your FB friend! We've been roomies since we were itty-bitty freshmen.

TOTALLY SMALL WORLD!!! :D

Hood College...a great place to know everything about everyone ...

Yep, that's who I thought she was!

SUCH a small world. I get the sense that, by the time I die, I'm going to have met every single person who ever went to Hood between the years of 2004-now.

LOL. I'll tell you, though -- some of them are NOT worth meeting, IMO. :/

WTF, I went to Hood too, and am BFFs with Katie and Becca. I stayed as far from the english department as possible (besides the typical fangirl of Foys), but haha, how did I not know you went to Hood?

What? This is crazy. Hood is like, the smallest school ever - how did we all end up here, lol? I was mostly in the English department - sometimes in the music dept (I studied opera at a different school before I transferred to Hood, where I switched to English), but mostly, I hung out in Rosenstock.

Since I don't think there's any such thing as privacy on the Internet, my name when I went to Hood was Amanda Earp - most people called me Mandi, though. I wonder if we know each other?...

Hmm, I don't think so. My name's Melissa (I went by Mel) Taylor, and I majored in chemistry & Spanish... I think I took a grand total of one class in Rosenstock! Dr. Ezra's stupid PSCI 203... guh. That's so funny that there's ten thousand (read: three) Hood people on Tea's LJ!

Nope - you don't sound familiar to me, either :( Ahh well, it's still nice to meet another Hood person (and at Hood, ten thousand really DOES equal three, ha), and I find it so weird we're all hooking up over here on Tea's LJ...

Wow, you got to TOUCH one? That's pretty amazing. I love those statues. Though an act of ego, it's an amazing collection.

No, my boyfriend is sadly a reproduction they have just for visitors to pose with. He's not even the real thing.

It was an awesome visit. And learning about Qin Shi Huang was kind of amazing. The guy needed to make friends with King Ludwig of Bavaria and then the world would have been complete.

Well, the next photo was of us getting escorted out by security.

Not really. It was a reproduction they had just for people to take photos with.

OMG, TEA -- this comic is SOOOO awesome!!! :D

What a fun day -- I learned a lot and had a great time putting a face to the name I've heard (and read) so much about! :D

Thanks for hosting a mini-Hood reunion, too -- impromptu reunion = awesome! :)
