So, this blog will mainly revolve around the awesome guy in religion that I'm in love with, lol, who shall be known only as Awesome Guy. (Since Awesome Guy is pretty much the only thing that Catey doesn't cover in her blogs from my life besides work and classes which aren't too exciting right now.)
So! Yesterday I arrive outside of our Eastern Religion classroom, but there's some class about Judaism in there before us and we have to wait until they are done to go in. So everyone is sitting around outside the door just chilling, including Awesome Guy. I sit down a good distance down the way from him, since I'm shy and am afraid to really talk to him (sigh.) Suddenly One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor arrives and plops herself down next to Awesome guy and starts chattering away with him!
"You said you were a writer! So am I! That's so cool I thought I was the only one!" says One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor with enthusiasm.
Awesome guy smiles and nods.
"So me and some of my friends were going to get together and to a little writing and meditation circle sometime and you should totally come join us, it would be like, so spiritual and cool!" One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor continues.
Awesome guy replies, "That sounds good. I'll have to see."
"Cool!" One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor responds, clearly enamored.
This entire time I'm sitting there like "What? I knew he was a writer too! And I'm a writer too! I just don't go parading down the street saying that I like to write! Get away from him! Shut the fuck up you whore! He's mine, MINE!" And I hope to god that Awesome Guy doesn't start to hang out with One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor because she's really annoying and weirdly into Buddhism without really knowing much about it... and that just doesn't seem like Awesome Guy's bag to me. Lol because I know what his bag is...I've never even talked to him!
So, a little more information about how One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor got her little nickname. Every class, her and her counterpart The Other One of Those Two Girls Who Always Ask Stupid Questions, Waste Our Class Times, and Act Like They are Smarter than the Professor will, without fail, ask one or two questions about the reading that are either completely irrelevant to what we are talking about, really stupid with obvious answers, or are simply preludes to relating some anecdote that they feel is essential for the class to hear and discuss (believe me, their anecdotes are completely pointless.) They do all of this with an air of intellectual superiority that just makes the situation even more ridiculous. Plus, the proffessor tries to answer their little queries sincerely and thouroughly, all the while sighing and glancing at the clock. Needless to say we have fallen behind the syllabus's schedule.
Because of this amusing, if rather exasperating, situation I have set aside a section in the back of my notebook entitled "The WTF Questions of the Day." I already have two lovely gems including:
"If the Hindus worship the Ramayana, why don't we worship the Odessy and the Iliad?"
and
"Didn't everyone have to wear bells so people knew you were coming?"
You should have seen the professor's face.
Anyway... I sit at the end of the same table as Awesome Guy, so there are only two people between us, yay! Maybe I'll talk to him sometime? I think I'll have to. He is also in my Theatre Appreciation class, but he sits nowhere near me. Still, there's another oppurtunity for us to chat, if I work up the nerve. He seems very nice so he's not likely to like...I don't know... shoot me down for making awkward conversation. Right! I'm going to do it! I'm going to talk to him damnit!
Well, I've got nothing else to say. Tata!
