I woke up at 9:00, had an interview with Steven Manuel of the New London Historical Society about interning there for the summer. He said I had the job, I just needed to write him an email saying if I wanted the curating or kids program internship. Then I met up with Sebastian, Rome, and Daniel in Seb's room, dropped half a tab, and we walked out to meet Cole outside butts.

We walked to Wadsworth as it started hitting, on the way I stopped and looked at a birch tree with uniform lines all over it, trippy. It was a nice 60 degree sunny day, but the trees are all still bare around us. At wadsworth, we went down to the Frog pond where all these frogs were chilling and chirping, then we sat in the shade behind the mansion. Sebastian was having a great time on 3.5 tabs, but Rome was freaking out. He had a bad trip on the same dose, and Daniel had to keep telling him where he was and what was happening. Rome said all his identity, his values, and everything was being broken down in him. At points he was shaking and sweating profusely, he didn't know what was real and what wasn't. Sebastian kept giving him the sponge to look at, feel, and ground him. Cole was taking notes on what we were saying and drawing stuff that he saw. We walked down to the frog pond again, talked to Rome more, and watched the frogs hop around and vibe out there. We walked back before the loud schoolbuses came, which would've been bad for Rome. We went to the cemetery, Cole peeled off, and we hanged out there for a bit. Rome wanted to have some alone time in the cemetery, and he said on his way back, he was feeling more chill and relaxed, and he almost walked into traffic there.

I got back and went to Thais's room. She was angry with me because I blew off my plan with her to go to the gym this morning to go trip sack. We walked down to Pike stream, sat on a root at the riverbend and talked about it, our relationship, what I want, and my respect for her (or lack thereof). By the end, it was all good, I promised to do better and honor my commitments. We were happier with each other after this.

Daniel, Rome, Sebastian, Quentin, and I went down to Puerto Vallarta downtown. On the way in front of Mondo, there was this crazy homeless guy without a mask on yelling shit. He started yelling at me, and I made the bad move to give him attention, so he came over and I gave an elbow bump. He pleaded for money, I gave him a five, and he kept following me for a little saying he needed a 20. He was saying some bible shit about Jesus and the angel Gabriel, so I leaned into that and said God bless you and everything. Daniel got pissed at me because if there was any encounter where I'd get corona, it'd be this. If I do get it, it will be from this. In the restaurant, I put on hand sanitizer on my hands and the sleeve of my purple youtuber hoodie. Puerto Vallarta was good, I ordered soup for Thais, and we got strawberry icecream. We passed two pretty big and rough looking guys, who told us to have a good night. We sat nearby and ate and joked around, but then more of their friends showed up. Daniel got sketched and we quickly packed up and left.

I went back to Thais's room to give her the soup, and we stayed there for a little. I went back to my room, and joined the Bros on discord to play a new game Josh showed us called Gauty Phone. My masterpieces there were- A TMNT getting smashed with a hammer by Wario, Ronald Mcdonald showing kids his balls, Ben Stiller's swollen and too-inflated cock with a bike pump, and Sonic performing brutal sex acts. This game is crazy, and crazy fun.

This day was quite the experience, I just hope I don't get corona in the next week from it.
