Dat Phan + Karma = FUN

So its like 6 pm, and I’ve only been awake for about . . .2 hours. My parents don’t understand this at all . . . . . . if you’re in college and you have plans for Friday night, chances are slim to none that you’ll wake up on Saturday. Except of course, to get up to get ready to go out again. Cool, right?

Last night I was out and about from 7 pm to about 4 am, because of the Asian American Student Union’s wonderful standup show– DAT PHAN, and then the AASU + Indian Association of Tulane University coprogramming for the afterparty- KARMA! It was sooooooo much fun!

<<(The crowd at Dixon Auditorium watching Dat Phan ) Dat Phan was pretty amazing. He was the winner of Comedy Central’s Last Comic Standing. He was HILARIOUS!!!! His act was based on his ethnicity, but he did well imitating other races and cultures too. His jokes ranged from slightly risque to family humor. My favorite part was when he was explaining how his mother dislikes every girl he brings home, except the Asian ones. There was something in his act for every member of the audience, and it was that bit that did it for me! It was an amazing show that I was lucky enough to see. Afterwards, we all got a picture with him, and I got his autograph. We waited in line for like 20 minutes . . .which meant I had about 20 minutes to get ready for Karma. Oh well. <<(Dat Phan here at Tulane)

I went to Karma, and I did my thing . . . . . dancing and all that. It was huge this time, and the DJs were good. There was a huge variety of people there this time, and that’s the most fun part of it. I ran into several of my executive officers from Wall, as well as the graduate hall director, and then many girls from the sorority I’m pledging as well. It was intense!

But the best part of it is that it is a party. So though I was there on behalf of IATU (since I’m on the board), it was a party after all. Everyone that usually expected something from me during the weekdays (Sorority sisters, exec officers, even IATU board) let it slide and I got to have a good time, regardless of the responsibilites floating in the air with the people at that party. Everyone sort of understood that it was just a night to chill.

Which is what I did . . . . .and therefore why I woke up 2.5 hours ago.

Welcome to college, y’all!
