Aftermath

So I know I didn't blog while I was at APS, but after that first day, I was just glad to hang out and then get some sleep, which was not enough. Though its afterwards that's the most relevant to my emotional and psychological being. It was me, our president, and a guy I'll call Bob. Well on the ride back home, we would chat the time away and then of course it came to his history of being in the Marines. I'm proud of my dad and all that he has done, but then to have this guy Bob come in and start bashing on me and him just because of our Air Force history was just wrong. Though I wouldn't let on about that, especially to the likes of him.

Then the day before while we were still in Arlington, he asks if I have a girlfriend and I have to say no. He then turns around and makes it into a joke, you know, the whole "Go get a girlfriend," insult. All this just because I happen to let on that I'm into other things besides physics. In the car I was talking about towels, because I had worked in Target as an overnight stocker. I said it in a jokingly way about how I liked Egyptian cotton best(Which is true, but I know how it can sound), and he says how I need a girlfriend. Then later that evening, he does it again when I tell them about my cursed deck of cards. I had used them in a game where you talk to the dead. So lets just say that I don't really like this guy.

The whole reason for this trip was to bond better with my fellow physics class mates, but I feel that nothing of the sort happened. Our president is just has high strung as ever, I really don't like Bob, Matt is nothing I need(A loud and angry drunk), Alex seems cool, but he is better friends with Matt, and Kelly, well Kelly is really cool and smart, but no reason for us to be friends. She is a grad student doing real work, and I'm this lowly undergrad. Things are just as they have been, oh well.
