     Okay now, I came into college with a boyfriend.  Yes, what was I thinking? I was young and naïve and believed in happily ever after—I was so wrong.  I learned that the hard way.  I mean, seriously –who was I kidding? I really believed the whole long distance thing could work: he would be committed to me and not be influenced by his friends.   I should have figured it was going to go all down hill after the fact he told me he wanted to pledge a frat.  Don’t get me wrong I’m sure many frat boys have girlfriends, but I’m sure they all went through a stage where they would get with any girl that spoke to them.  This will not be a “I HATE MY EX-BOYFRIEND, HE SHOULD ROT IN HELL” entry.  However, it can be called a “What to do after you break up” entry.

     Now when I was with my ex… let’s call him Justin; I had by “Justin box.” I put all of his letters, from past Valentine’s Days and anniversaries we spent together, old pictures, lyrics to “our songs,” prom pictures, homecoming pictures and what other silly nothings he ever gave me, there.  Well when we broke up, or rather when I dumped his sorry ass,  I put all of these things in a metal trash can, lit some matches and watched it all burn…ALL OF IT.  What did I need with it?  All his “ I love you’s” all of his “you mean the world to me’s,” they all turned in to ash.  It was useless,, just like ash.  Anything that could not be burned, like those stupid glass animals that he “bought just because he saw them and thought of me…” well those met my hammer.  Yes, I smashed them all. Those pretty glass animals that were so delicately hand crafted became itsy bitsy glass bits.  And his college sweater he got me when he got into his pretentious Ivy League school?  Well lets say I’m sure someone without much to wear is very warm now because the Salvation Army gave it to a person who needed it for this cold winter.

It’s that time again when the library is more crowded than K street used to be on a Thursday night and whether you want to or not, you will see everyone. You try to look like you don’t care, but GScene sees past you’re perfectly planned library outfit. Leggings, Uggs, and a Free City or greek sweatshirt is the unofficial dress code if you are planning an all nighter. For a short and sweet visit to ensure a lasting impression girls dress it up a bit in hopes for a study break fling. Let’s admit it, midterms and tests are just a good excuse to hit club Gelman, this week’s hotspot that doesn’t card (well technically…). Tables have been exchanged for private rooms, where only the elite can study and make their moves. Starbucks drinks are the new top shelf bottles of Vodka. The floor that you study on defines who you are. Just as you make your rounds in the club, you scope out the rooms and look in the glass windows on each floor to see who is in what room and where you want to put down your stuff for the night. The 4th and 6th floors are social floors. The fourth floor “quiet” room is NEVER quiet. No one studies, unless you consider people watching, facebooking, and gossiping educational. No need for townhouse row, the entire greek community is there. Some shady stuff goes down up there on the sixth floor. No need for details, you know who you are… You think that we can’t see you, but we notice the guys with the shirts off and the girls dancing on tables late at night. On the top of everyone’s “to-do” list is to do “it” in the library, whether in the stacks or in a private room, there’s no better way to release that midterm stress.

Spring break is just two weeks away and the pressure is on to be swimsuit ready. Nowhere is this more evident then at the gym. Girls, we understand the anticipation, but save the booty shorts for the sand. No wonder the guys suddenly think it is acceptable to hit on us while working out, especially when doing the “doggy style” weight machine in those short shorts. Trust us guys, watching you sweat on the treadmill does not mean that we want to see you sweat in the bedroom. Just because we happen to glance over at you and catch eyes does not mean were checking you out. Let’s face it working out can get boring and you’re a little more interesting to watch than the food channel, but just a little. And those moans while doing your lifting? Don’t impress us, actually to be honest, we find it weird. And girls we hope we don’t have to remind you not to do that either. Attention frat boys! The gym is not an event and you do not have to come in packs. When you guys start hanging out with each other 24/7 and spot each other… we get a little worried. But one thing you do do right is wear your frat t-shirts because it gives us something to read and laugh at while aimlessly starring at your bodies. After a while you start to see the same crowd and you begin to give them nicknames, like “number 27”. When you start starring at yourself in the mirror, other people can see too, and sometimes your mirror face should not leave the privacy of your own room. Just because you are in the sit-up room does not give you permission to make up your own stretches; that happen to resemble your favorite sex moves, keep it for the bedroom… or better yet to yourself. If you need a little summary, moans and groans should be kept away from the gym. So with only two more weeks to perfect your six-pack don’t ruin your chances by the way you are perceived at the gym.

Do the D.A.N.C.E. 1, 2, 3, 4 FIGHT! Stick to the B.E.A.T. Get ready to ignite…. Tonight!!
We know you want to be a P.Y.T. catching all the lights…. from our GScene camera that is. For the naturally blonde who doesn’t know what that means, it means Pretty Young Thing.

So for all you pretty young things out there, let’s slip into a girl’s Manolos and take a walk in her shoes. …

Thursday afternoon rolls around…going through my facebook events, I check out who’s going where, and who’s doing what. I’ll probably decide to go where my object of desire will be. Location down, outfit to go. I wish I had the newest CUSP dress but don’t, so do I go for my friend’s “infamous pink skirt”…AGAIN or for my trusty slutty black dress? Eyeliner. Shot. Mascara. Shot. Lip-gloss. Shot. And somehow it all comes out Gscene ready… my face and my state of mind. Oh and did I take my birth control today?! Whatever…there’s always the trip to CVS in the morning for Plan B Rx. Speaking of Rx, should I go skiing with the big girls tonight…actually thin girls…no no…emaciated or do I want my cleavage to buy me drinks? Sipping on my crystal light concoction, I think to myself, will I see the guy I’ve been stalking? Will I go home with him? And if so how bad will the walk of shame be?

Now, I am officially ready for the night. Out the door and in the cab, should I make out with my girlfriend for a free ride? ; ) Finally, we get to the dreaded line. But wait, thank god it’s Mohammad working the line tonight. His quickie with me is guaranteeing my quickie in. Yea it may sound bad, but at least I won’t be the one waiting out in the cold. The party has officially started. To the bar it is. Kiss kiss. He’s cute! What is she wearing!? And DAMN my eyes go straight to the object of my desire. Hold up? Who’s that skank next to him? He’s mine tonight! I walk pass him, quick graze, and definite eye sex…he’s hooked. Gimme gimme more, gimme , gimme gimme more. Right on a cue DJ!

Dancing with my girls, while one eye makes sure he’s still watching. Right when I thought I lost him, he comes up from behind me…not the only time he’ll do this tonight I hope. Lost conversation in the music but then my ears perk at the words, “do you wanna get out of here?” Hooked and caught! He tries to make a quick getaway while I hope someone notices us slipping into the night. On the cab back to his place, I wonder, how cold will it be walking back in this dress in the morning?…regardless it will have been totally worth it.

-Hugs and Kisses,

The Girls Next Dorr

Arriba, Abajo, Acentro, Adentro!!!

When March 14th rolls around where will you be jet setting off to?
Miami was so new years and if you know what’s good then you’ll be there the weekend after spring break for Ultra/WMC. If you have an ounce of class you won’t be caught dead in Cancun, so we’ve come to inform you where the party will be this spring break.

If you’re looking to go south of the border our pick rhymes with Wabo and starts with Cabo, it’s Cabo san Lucas, we got the last room at the Melia (http://mecabo.travel/) but as you JAPs know, if you want something bad enough Daddy can make it happen, or get on our good side and maybe will give you one of our extra rooms.

If you like to follow the crowd then you’ll probably be found in Acapulco. If you don’t want your only souvenir to be an STD, then we suggest you aim for a location with a little less of Girls Gone Wild XXX.

If you’re headed anywhere with a Saint in front of it, then you’re good in our book. If you’re not the sharpest tool in the shed… we mean places like St. Tropez and St. Barts.

If you want a different powder then the one up your noise, you’ll be keeping it fresh in the Swiss Alps.

Whether you’re looking for a random hookup, waiting for the perfect chance to get that certain hottie drunk enough to hook up with you, or if you’re unfortunate enough to be traveling with your significant other, same rules apply to every spring break. Whoever returns to D.C. with the most notches on their bedpost, or on our case on a white board, wins open bar at Lotus.

But wherever this spring break may take you, be picture perfect ready… because GScene will be jet setting to a few locations.

It’s that dreaded time of the year again… its time for cupid to strike his arrows and whether you’re struck or not it’s on your mind. For you guys out there whether you have a girlfriend or juggling three at once you better be ready to dish out some extra lovin’. Since we know this can be quite stressful we’ve decided to give a helping hand in order for you to get those extra brownie points…or if you prefer, the extra minutes in bed.

What to Get:

1) Shopbop.com has made it easy for you, with their own valentine’s day section complete with special shipping: http://www.shopbop.com/shop/product_browse.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302079477

2) Roses never fail, but guys keep it classy not corny. Leave out the chocolates, remember your girlfriends are probably anorexic.

3) Paper Source in Georgetown is the Neiman Marcus for cards, sure to impress.

4) If you’re the type of guy who’s up for some good laughs…and some good moves that will make her sore the rest of the weekend, be sure to stop by Barnes & Noble or Urban and pick up the gift that keeps on giving, “Position of the Day Playbook” or “Cosmo’s Karma Sutra Book”.

Where to Eat:

1) If you want to keep talking to a minimum these loud places will keep the legs open under the table and the mouths closed above. Lotus - You may only be familiar with it as a club but Lotus has good sushi that won’t break the bank and the atmosphere you love.
2) The name says it all 2007’s best date spot in America, Mei n Yu.
3) But our pick this v-day is definitely Oya, sure to get any preacher’s daughter to put out. www.oyadc.com
4) Remember: Valentine’s Day is not the night to be ballsy and surprise her with your new concoctions of food.
5) To ensure you don’t end up at JStreet, make your reservations tonight at www.opentable.com.

What to Do:

It doesn’t matter if you’ve been dating since freshman year, or since last Thursday, the first words you should say are, “Happy Valentine’s Day.” If you think you can get away with playing video games with your bros, or giving her the cold shoulder, you should plan on cuddling up with your body size pillow. This is the day you give her all the attention she deserves…or thinks she deserves

For those that have been hermits, it’s been pretty nippy outside. Unless you’re going to Bertucci’s, which we hope you’re not, take a cab. Don’t make her suffer; those are not the kind of points you are going to want.

Now that we have just given you the key tools to a perfect Valentine’s Day keep the peace and keep the love. We don’t want to see any lover’s quarrels or tears at Lotus.

-G-Scene Cupids

From an anonymous freshman girl, she reveals all….

“Swimmer Sam” called me Friday at 7 pm. Two things are wrong with this- the 7 pm and the talking part. There should be some rules. If you’re sober and calling a fuck buddy before 12 you are a.) A lazy ass and b.) Desperate. But then again every booty call is desperate. Never contact a booty call before midnight, or at least until you’re drunk. I know why “Swimmer Sam” was calling me, but no words were needed. His phone number on my screen explains it all. The funny thing is, usually the girl is the one to insist upon excessive communication. It’s kind of like when you overload your GWU email quota, well that is “Swimmer Sam” and my phone inbox. Don’t get me wrong; I’d rather see words than hear his voice. Taking the identity away is key. All I have to do is close my eyes and he is David Beckham, not some 18 year old who’s breath smells like weed and has the talking abilities of a cave man. We’ve never have had much to talk about, neither before, during or after sex. Well…a little during but all those words can be found in the Daft Punk song “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.”The relationship between hook up buddies should resemble that of a seesaw. Everyone gets their turn going up and down, get the point gentlemen? Both partners need to be on the same level sexually, or else no ones having fun…isn’t that the ultimate point of having sex? So next time you book your ticket to pleasure town, make sure it’s round trip.Sincerely,The Girl Next Door

Being a student at GW goes hand-in-hand with tough decisions. Whether those decisions are what to wear, what to eat -or rather what not to eat- to go to K. Street or Lotus, these decisions make the life of the typical GW student difficult.However, maybe it is time that we as students step away from the false idea that we have a hard life and hard decisions to make, and for once make a choice that matters beyond our 10 square block world. What we are referring to here are the 2008 elections.Halfway around the world in Bosnia and Chechnya and Rwanda, they dream of the promise we fulfill every four years, of a future we chose, for ourselves, together. And so it is our responsibility to not only ourselves, but to the citizens of those countries to vote and participate in the electoral process.We urge all of our readers- friends, enemies, or otherwise, to vote and make your voice heard. No matter if you are choosing between Senators Clinton, McCain or Obama, or Governor Romney, it is a vote for the future, and a vote for change.Can anyone remember the words of John Kennedy in his inaugural address? He said, “Let the word go forth from this time and this place that there is a new generation of Americans…” What our staff would like to say is, ‘Let the word go forth from this time and this place that there is a new generation of GW students who care about their futures and are fighting to make the world a better place, no matter they get in return.”Vote or Die

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Farrior and Denver Broncos Linebacker Al WILSON were at the first corner table inside LOTUS Thursday. I guess Lotus not only appeals to drunk cute sorority girls and international players, but also 250 Pound Ballling NFL Linebackers…. and they weren’t wearing mini-skirts. The Broncos nor the Stealers made it to the Superbowl this year…so I guess they better start chugging on that Gatorade instead of sipping on that Goose.
