May 5th, 2025: Sad sad Monday. I woke up and finished off the milk in my cereal before I took the bus all the way down to the art store and then walked in after 20 minutes to go and get a gigantic roll of paper. It cost me $20.00 and I then walked back to the bus stop and hopped on the bus quickly after I arrived at the stop and took the bus ride home. There weren't many people on the bus but I then got home and started playing some more modded Terraria for fun. I realized that I should get my pseudoleather jacket repaired so I made a post on the college Snapchat story asking if someone could repair it for me. I eventually got this friend request from this girl in my grade that had previously added me so our conversation went as follows:
<hey! saw your story, i sew
>Wait why did you re-add me?
<bc I saw your story 😂
>Ok
>Why did you unadd me in the first place?
<I go through every once in a while and purge my snap and just unadd a shit ton of people that I’m not really close with
>Ok
>How much for the re-sew?
<depends if I can do it by hand or need to use a machine
>I think you can do either.
>It’s not leather but I’m not sure about the exact material
<okay
<how thin is the material
>Sort of thin, I don’t have it on hand but I will be heading home at 3:45pm to check.
<ok. because if it’s the really thin faux leather it’s difficult to sew back together rather than just patching it
I then went to my first class and sat through it. I thought there was going to be a test today but I was wrong and we just learned about stuff that wasn’t even supposed to be on the final. I then had some time because we were let out early to head back home and take a video of the jacket for her to look at. My next stop was my Machine Learning class. Padma was eating those peanut butter Ritz things, I asked her if I could have one when there were two left and she accidentally dropped one on the floor and then gave me the last one. I was just learning about the Papacy and found out that Ireland is the only country in the world to have a camerlengo (Kevin Farrell) active during sede vacante (no Pope) but not a Pope. Then I had dinner (microwaved stew that Enosh made) and gathered all of my art stuff. I then opened my email on my walk to the rosary event and found this email:
<Hi Gemerson
<It is a public event, so you do not need my permission to attend. If you are genuinely interested in the research being presented, then you should come. If you are looking for an excuse to interact with someone in particular, then maybe think about sitting this one out. I believe you will make the best decision for yourself.
I just felt like shit, I felt so bad. When I got to the rosary event at 4:30pm there were 3 other people there, Angela’s roommate, the hand girl, and another guy. I felt like shit and ended up leaving early without warning, I did see Reuben on the way out. I got into art class and sat in the corner working on my art work. I had to get the teacher to cut my paper for me. I went out at one point to destress and got some Fruit Gushers from a vending machine and quickly left due to this group of friends hanging out, I ate them all and then went back inside while listening to Ginger girl and her friend talk and it got on my nerves so I told them to be quiet. I got assigned to the group for the in-person critique with Ginger girl, Pinky, and the oldest guy in the building and just looked at their works without saying a thing. I walked home and saw Punk outside but she didn’t see me. I grabbed my jacket and brought it to the seamstress’s dorm and gave it to her. I went home and drank two capfuls of Limoncello before writing this email to Asherah’s boss at 10:02pm
>Hi [Asherah’s boss]
>While I really appreciate your praise for my decision-making skills, because even if it may be over-optimistic, it is welcome. After carefully reading on and in-between the lines, it has been made crystal-clear that I am not welcomed within a large radius of any events anymore regardless of my socialization goals as per the will of this someone in particular, I will be honoring this agreement. Thank you for the clarification though!
I then went to sleep.

May 6th, 2025: Another Tuesday today. I didn’t have any milk so I made myself some coffee today and gamed for a bit before I went out and decided to grab some scrambled eggs, sausage, and pancakes for breakfast. I also bought some milk to drink and put in my coffee, I then walked around and went to the library to this corner that I found and worked on my German homework while posting on KiwiFarms. I finished up and went to my German class. In it I didn’t talk with Quentin and we did some group stuff and I realized that this one guy in my class was Khadija’s brother. I then went to my second class of the day and sat with Chappell, the South Korean, and Nintendo fan as we watched the other 4 presentations before we had to leave for the day. I ended up finding the tall girl’s Hinge and Bumble profiles. Like I’m not even interested in dating you, I was interested in you dating Luigi. I got home and then gamed a bit more before heading over to the Catholic center early. I chatted with Luigi a bit and went upstairs where Henry was and gifted him this printout. I cut some pink slips for people to write notes to seniors with before I went into the actual mass. I talked with some of the guys and the Honduran said that he had a dream that Pizzaballa would become the next pope and if he was right, then he would be a prophet, also Markus, Henry, Mahdi, and the Honduran were all familiar with Redeemed Zoomer. In the mass Mercurius and this other guy were serving as acolytes and I sat next to the Honduran and Markus, who were dressed up pretty well. Mahdi and the engaged girl sat behind us. After mass had ended we went up to get food to eat and we decided to all eat outside, including Elizabeth, Markus, Luigi, the Honduran, Mahdi, Henry and his girlfriend. We ate some of the cookies they had but Henry’s girlfriend couldn’t eat nuts so I just made a joke about her allergy and she laughed at it. At one point the topic shifted to exploding ovaries and I said that you could just steal other people’s kids and Markus called me a doctor of the church for that. We ended up seeing Mercurius walk past with the girl he brought to mass one day and it turns out they are official. Pen Guy came and he talked about how Native Americans are honorary White people and him rewatching the two Weatherman movies, I wrote 5 pink slips for the seniors, Kaitlyn and her boyfriend, Rose, Henry, and Punk, I included my phone number with the last two and then gave mine to Henry and then walked home to finish up my homework. I then took a shower and went to bed.

May 7th, 2025: Quite a busy Wednesday today, my first thing I did when I woke up was to finish off my cereal for breakfast and play some more modded Terraria. Looking through my pile of mail that is mostly junk or belonging to the previous tenants I found something postmarked April 29th, 2025 from my parents and it was a new card, but I already had one. So I texted my mom:
>I already got a new card…
She texted back:
<Ok. Look at the expiration date.
<BTW, I spoke to Addison and she thinks SSRI's may help you feel better. Ask this Dr. Who is going to subscribe. Make sure they know about the ADD medication you are currently on.
I replied:
>Ok!
>I replaced the card already.
<I meant who is going to prescribe the new medication.
>Ohh
I went to the library and bought some coffee along the way to drink while in my favorite hideout. I ended up finishing my homework that was due at 1:00pm at 11:00am and then I walked around a bit more. I was watching the livestream of the conclave to elect the new Pope after Pope Francis died and saw the seagulls. Cara sent me a snapchat about her listening to Rush albums on Vinyl and that I would enjoy it. I was watching it while in my C programming class. I had my computer positioned so that others could watch the livestream. I don’t think anybody saw it but I did see black smoke near the end of my class. In my class I went on twitter and posted this thing about a hate hour for my followers to participate in and the only notable one that was posted was by NLinBougainville (@NLinBougainville)
<I want to see you happy bro and every time you doompost about fumbling again something dies inside of me
Which kind of hurt me mentally. I then walked over to my second class which was just me and the guy who goes to Tuesday mass sometimes. I told him about the thing and then I chatted with Torvalds online for a bit until I just had to leave early because I wasn’t feeling good. I talked with @princessparkles on Instagram which ended up with her sending me gore because she got so mad at me so fast. I went home and then I decided to go over to the Catholic center to chill for a while.. When I got to the place I sat downstairs for a bit when some people came out of the Early Christianity class, including Mercurius, Mahdi, the Honduran, Markus, and the professor while talking about his 5 kids. I ended up sitting with the others minus Mercurius as we discussed the papal election and also talked about soyjaks. The two ones that I shown which got the best reactions were these:

I found out that they were all staying in the city over the summer and I said that we should hang out more often during it and that I would be serving at the Wednesday mass. They would probably come over to my mass sometimes. I then went to my last art class for the day and worked on my stuff. I got over halfway done with mine when my dad called me in the middle of the class and I had to go outside. We talked about me serving at mass, Mother’s day coming up, and the papal conclave, in the middle of the call this ginger girl (not Ginger girl) knocks on the door to be let in and even makes a blowing a kiss motion towards me, I let her in but didn’t talk to her at all. I went back and did the presentation of our works and then grabbed my art from all my previous assignments. I asked if we could leave early (5 minutes) so I could go to this event at the Catholic center and the teacher said sure, I walked over with all my stuff and placed it in a room downstairs before entering the chapel. When I went in there were these two non-denominational groups at the church and the chapel was absolutely packed. They were singing typical non-denominational church songs and I didn’t sing along because I felt disgusted. Immediately after the non-denomination pastor gave a sermon about unity and one of the non-denominational girls gave a reading from Romans about unity, our priest then gave a sermon and we closed it out with a song that we sang together. I realized that it was what God would have wanted of me so I sang along, afterwards we ate pizza and I even gave this super chill guy a tour of the upstairs. I got two girl’s Instagrams and we did an icebreaker initiated by one of the guys from the other organization. Henry, Seraphim, Luigi, and this 4th guy who I will be calling Sideburns wanted me to sit on the couch and I didn’t do it. I found out that Seraphim didn’t have a kid and my presumed name for him was wrong. I might be conflating someone else with him. A bit later the priest and I talked with this Black girl about Catholicism and explaining it, she was super interested and wanted the priest to explain more and even attend the Wednesday masses at the fancy church. I ate some fruit by the foot and then went home at 9:00am and took a shower and then debated sending a text to Lizzo asking her about the random text she sent me last month, but I just went to sleep.

May 8th, 2025: Amazing day today, I first woke up and went to the convenience store to get a 2 for 1 deal on Rice Krispies cereal and then had some of that along with some coffee to make the day go well. I then walked over to the Catholic center and chilled there as I watched the livestream of the papal conclave on my computer. I also had like 3 assignments to do in relation to my German class today and I completed them all before class even started. I knew that some black smoke had gone up for the morning session on the second day of the conclave before (Italy (more specifically The Vatican) is ahead of us time-wise) so I didn’t really have my hopes up that it would conclude soon. But, at roughly 10:45pm I noticed that there was white smoke coming out of the chimney and I got super excited, I immediately shouted the news:
“WHITE SMOKE!”
I went around the center shouting it, I told it to Reuben and even went downstairs and had to tell it to the guy I was in my Machine Learning class with when he was talking to the priest. I was so delighted to see that but there wasn’t any announcement as to who it would be. In the family groupchat I posted:
>WHITE SMOKE! A NEW POPE HAS BEEN ELECTED!
My dad replied:
<Who dat?
I walked to my German class while watching the livestream on my phone, thankfully I had my eyes opened so I wasn’t always just looking down at it. I got into my German class and I had my phone on the livestream, they hadn’t announced who the new Pope was yet because nobody had exited, the teacher showed us the music video for Ich Will by Rammstein and I only half watched it because I didn’t want to accidentally miss them showing off who the new Pope is. After the video was done the teacher talked about how his favorite Rammstein video was that of a 2019 live performance of Du Hast in France (I’m not sure) but over half of the members of the band are certified pyrotechnicians, I announced the white smoke thing in the class and they were all surprised, Khadija’s brother was there but Quentin was not. A bit later, one of our activities was to say what we wanted to be after college and we tried to stump the professor if we got a word that he didn’t know. I said Data Scientist and he sort of knew that word, he wrote down Data-wissenschaftler on the board and I looked it up and it was actually Datenwissenschaftler, so pretty close, but because I was livestreaming the conclave, the teacher said that I had to say my dream job was the Pope, or Der Papst (contrasted with the beer brand Pabst) I saw the new Pope finally come out and it looked like Pietro Parolin but I was mistaken and I found out a bit later it was actually Robert Francis Prevost who became Pope, I even texted the family groupchat about it)
>He’s from Chicago!
>Pope Leo XIV (born Robert Francis Prevost, September 14, 1955)
I was super excited and then I had to say that I wanted to be Pope later on in life. A few others agreed with the teacher’s decision including Khadija’s brother and this girl he would always partner up with. I said it and then we got let out of class early. I walked over to this restaurant and got a burger for lunch and saw the groupchat.
<Habemus papam - Markus
<HES AN AMERICAN! Leo XIV - another guy
<🎉🎉🎉 - Elizabeth
>YEAHHHHHHHHHH
<What was his birth name? - Elizabeth
<Robert Francis Prevost - another guy
>He’s from Chicago!
<Midwest is best - Seraphim
<It’s cool that he’s from America! - Hannah
I then walked back home to post the Biblejak for the day congratulating the new Pope and I chilled for a bit at home until Reuben posted some exquisite bait in the groupchat:
<Can you all hear yourselves! Calling a MAN Holy father! This is blasphemous! What would Jesus have to say about this?
A bit later he replied:
<Just Kidding 🤣. This is awesome 👏.
The Honduran said:
<Hahahah, I was wondering when we became Baptist
To which Reuben replied:
<Lol Yeah, I wasn’t necessary pretending to be any religion. I just wanted to see if people would think I personally didn’t believe in a Pope.
My lab was about socket connections in C with most of it being set up for us, we had to send a phrase to the server and then have it sent back to the client all in uppercase, I completed that quickly and then got dressed up all fancy for my internship interview which I thought I had at 4:30pm, I called to confirm and she said that their offices closed at 4:30pm so I got dressed for nothing. Also 6ie replied to my thing that I had sent her a couple of weeks ago about her meeting her husband Rocky with this:
<No way, we didn’t meet till I was 26 and he was 29. There is noooooo way I would have been interested in him back then. He was a snowboarding bum with long hair who loved to party in college. In fact, we had mutual friends for years before we were officially introduced and those 3-4 years I don’t think I ever took a second look at him even though we were at multiple parties and concerts as a group of 20ish ppl. 🤣
I found that funny and then I walked over to the Catholic center to write out my blog entry. I got a text from my sister saying:
<Gemerson what is your confirmation name
I replied:
>Ambrose
>Why
<Wow! An American Pope? What order? - Mom
<Augustinian
>I asked my friends and only one chose one.
I then was sitting in the main entrance when some people came in and talked about driving all the way to Whitewater. They asked me if I wanted to go and I agreed. I got in the car with Seraphim, the second girl I danced with, and Sideburns. As we were driving out, this car behind us got rear ended and had a good amount of damage so we had to call the others to see if it was their car that got rear ended but they were safe. We drove a good distance while Seraphim created a blend where we could add songs. I got criticized for putting a long Emerson Lake and Palmer song on the list. I found out that the girl driving us and Sideburns are cousins and that her 20th birthday is in 2 days while Sideburns’s birthday is the same day as mine but in 2005. I told them about the girl that lives in Whitewater who was obsessed with me and goes to a Church service but I think she’s non-denominational. Sideburns revealed to me that he has a crush on this girl that was also going with us in the other car that he has known since childhood but he said he was discerning the priesthood, I said that he should become a deacon instead so he would still be free to marry and serve God more efficiently. We finally got to Whitewater and they were serving hamburgers for dinner so I got two burger patties and slices of cheese on mine. I sat with this new crowd at first and then with some of my old peeps, which included the hand girl (dubbed Hannah now) and the first girl I danced with. I made a joking remark saying:
“I don’t have enough alcohol in my system to talk about Israeli politics.”
Which made Seraphim exclaim:
“I swear you and the Honduran are like Tweedledee and Teeedledumbfuck!”
We then started playing in this gigantic game of volleyball after celebrating the seniors. The ball went out into the road multiple times and I shouted:
“Kid in the road!”
Whenever that happened. We lost count of all the people there but the girl I danced with first and Hannah were laying in the sun for a bit and then joined our game. A bit later we went over to the fire pit and started a fire. Hannah and the two girls I danced with decided to sit all on this one wooden bench at once and it collapsed. We laughed and put it into the fire while we talked until we decided to all walk to this ice cream place. Along the way we passed by this frat house and a guy there yelled:
“Have fun at the bars!”
I replied:
“Actually we’re going to get ice cream!”
They all started laughing and brought it up when we got there. The ice cream shop was empty except for one depressed employee who was working until 9:45pm. Seraphim and Sideburns got there first. I got two scoops of Zanzibar chocolate and loved it. The second girl I danced with made a joke about calling her grandma racist because she only likes white beans, so I replied:
“In solidarity with Black Lives Matter, I will be eating a can of black beans.”
Which made everyone rape up. We got driven back except for Seraphim and this other guy that was wearing the shirt that John Belushi wore in Animal House, they were walking back and weren't as fast as the others that were walking, so we got concerned and I called what I thought was his phone number but it was actually the original Seraphim's number (the one who actually has kids) or oSeraphim, I ended up deciding to leave a message because why not. I watched the fire a bit more and ate some marshmallows until we finally decided to head home at 10:00pm with the same groups as before. The blend when we got home was pretty cool and I didn’t put any super long songs on it. We stopped at a Kwik Trip and refilled. I went into the bathroom and when we got out the second girl gave me the task of putting away the nozzle and she was laughing, I got in and found out that it was because I put Slow Jamz on the playlist and we talked about Kanye West, I got dropped off at home and then went to sleep.

May 9th, 2025: What a not so good day. I woke up early to start working on my report that was due for my Computer Ethics class. The engaged girl texted something asking about when the Catholic center was open in the groupchat and I told her about the study session hours. I ended up heading over near when it started and grabbed some food and went to their computer lab to work on my report. I made a good amount of progress on it which mostly consisted of copy pasting the notes I wrote for myself on the slides into the Microsoft Word file (Google Docs is better though) and then polished that all up. Around 11:30pm I asked the priest if he wanted me to serve for mass and he said absolutely. I got all dressed once he got done with Naomi’s confession and lit the candles, I messed up a lot during the mass, I accidentally put the water and wine back on the table one at a time, I did the first ring of the bells at the end of the priest putting his hands over the chalice instead of at the beginning. I got up sometimes when we had to kneel still, and I got the paten for communion too late. As for the attendance, it was 3+1 college aged men including Seraphim, 5 older women, and 7 college aged women, including Naomi, Hannah, the first girl I danced with (to do: come up with a good pseudonym for her) and the engaged girl. I got told that I should redo the training by the priest afterwards and I overheard that the engaged girl is going to get married at the end of the month. I told her and Naomi that I had an internship interview and they wished me luck. I then walked over to my apartment and started getting dressed for my interview before taking the bus downtown. I even saw Biker and his girlfriend along the way. I went in and I got let in to see the woman I was interviewing, sadly the internship isn’t paid because it’s a volunteer thing, but I managed to negotiate for me to be volunteering on Mondays and Tuesdays for 8 hours each day, (I wanted to do Wednesdays but it wasn’t paid) my duties would be helping ESL refugees who have never touched a computer before write a professional email and get jobs. I met some of the other people, including the guy who I am taking the workload off of, this guy from Ukraine helping Ukrainians (while he was looking at the new DOOM game on his desktop, and some other girls and guys, a few who had started as volunteers that got jobs. I even met the boss and when we left the woman interviewing me said:
“He likes to hear himself talk!”
I then filled out some paperwork for the volunteer thing and then got some food on a plate and then walked to the bus stop, taking the bus home. I went back to the Catholic center to finalize working on the presentation that was due tonight. I texted Joseph asking if dinner was on tonight but he said he couldn’t make it. I saw the priest upstairs with a few other old guys and they were discussing selling the building and turning it into a standard single family home. I went downstairs and talked to Reuben and Angela’s roommate before leaving. After that I watched some Family Guy and worked on my final art project and only managed to squeeze in two squares. I heated up the pizza I had for dinner and then took a shower, after the shower I tried to clean the bathtub with a mixture of baking soda, dish soap, and water but I added too much water and dish soap and it wouldn’t stick so I had to scrub it around the bathtub and kinda got it clean. Then I finalized my report. The group texted back and forth about it and it was due tonight but Chappell couldn’t just write down her contributions so I went to sleep with it being late.
