Nicole’s Digbyholic Diary: Who Knew Lecture Notes Meant Marie Digby?

Who Knew Lecture Notes Meant Marie Digby?

Yo guys!

I actually really should be studying right now, but sitting in this very spot a memory that happened not too long ago just popped up in my head. Yeah I like to be a rebel (sometimes). This is actually where I, actually we… watched the last episode of Marie’s Breathing Underwater series.  This was with the ‘we’ part meaning my one friend who had no idea who Marie Digby was at the time and I.

Just like all of you guys I was really anticipating the ending to the series when I heard it was out and I could not keep my head on straight while sitting in class reading recent Tweets.  (You know that feeling when you know that summer’s just 3 minutes or so away and the second hand on the clock seems to be taking an eternity to go around just once? Yeaaa… That feeling…) So right after class, I ran to the library dragging my friend with me.  (Okay, not really draggin :p She kinda just followed me confused about why I was headed to the library rather than our usual lunch spot.)

We finally got to the library and I whipped out the laptop and earphones.  My friend took out her lunch and ate beside me while I watched Episode Numbahh 17 (that’s what I’m talkin’ bout…).  About 3 quarters into the episode, I heard my friend murmur something ever so quietly.

Nicole: *pauses video, takes out earphones* What?

Friend: Whoa man… where does she get all the hot guys? She needs to hook it up! Who is that anyways?

Nicole: Haha. Yeah, they’re pretty cute aren’t they? That’s Marie Digby. You haven’t heard of her?

Friend: Neverrrr… Why? Mah-ree-ey? Uhh.. how do you even spell that? Haha.

Nicole: M-A-R-I-E.  Serious? Oh em gee. You should check her out. Youtube would probably be the best place!

Friend: What does she do on Youtube?

Nicole:  She writes songs and sings. I actually have some of her songs on my iTunes. Here, listen.

Friend: Haha. No thanks. Acoustic?

Nicole: Aw okay… Yea.

Friend: Sorry… not my type of music.

Nicole: Oh alright… I tried. But yeah, I’m gonna go grab some Starbucks. You want anything?

Friend: No thanks. I’m good… Sorry man.

Nicole: Haha It’s alright.

I come back about 15 minutes later and I walk up to her from behind.  She had some earphones on so she had no idea I was behind her.  Sure enough she was watching Marie’s “How I Write a Song” video on Youtube.  I took my drink and placed it beside her and her eyes widen.

*Close*, *Close*,*Close*  Not only did she have Marie’s Video opened, but also had Marie’s Wikipedia page opened and Marie Digby Google images opened aside from that. Talk about busted!

Nicole: hi. I’m back? Just in case you didn’t notice. Haha.

Friend: uhhh yea… so how’s your Starbucks tasting? Hah….

Nicole: Buddy… I haven’t taken a sip yet, it’s right beside you…

Friend: oh… right…

Nicole: So you got a decent amount of studying done I see? Haha.

Friend: Be quiet. Haha.

Nicole: Make me.

Friend: K fine… you win. Marie Digby’s stuff pretty good.

Nicole: Hah! Ya…That’s I thought!

Friend: Yeah yeah…. So where are the rest of all these episodes?! Show me.

Nicole: Oh uhm….. here… There’s 17 of them all togeth…

Friend: (butts in and passes me a $10 bill) K thanks! Now can you please get me a latte? I just didn’t come the first time you went to Starbucks because I was ‘studying’ … yenno how it is. Haha.

Nicole: Wha? But Starbucks is just right….there… uggh fine.

Friend: Teehee.

We all know how Marie becomes a part of our lives and how MDD has the tendency to spread. Whether if we’re young or old, or whether we’re latte lovers or not.

True Story!

Signing off.     *Nicole*
