People are weird.

This week I've spent a lot of time on campus with my new schedule of classes. Granted I had one day where I didn't go at all due to the huge swelling problem with my eye. But! The swelling is gone, I wore make-up again today and all is well. However, due to all this time on campus I've done some high quality people watching. This is what I saw/heard.

5. Utah State has this thing called BookIt where you order your textbooks online (or sell your soul, they both cost about the same) then you can pick them all up from the bookstore in a cute little bag. So today, when I went to pick mine up, the lady in front of me hands the man her i.d. card and he looks it up...
"It looks like your books haven't been packaged yet, when did you place your order?" -helper man
"I just did it while I was waiting in line." -stupid lady
".....Well they aren't ready yet. Come back monday."
The lady walked away with a look of disgust. Are you kidding? What do you think this things works like magic?  idiot.

4. This was not on campus...When I went to the doctors, the nurse did some basic tests and whatnot. My blood pressure, weight, etc, then filled out a chart. Then she looks up and says,
 "What are we seeing you for today? Wow! You're eye is very swollen! Have you had that looked at?"
"..... Umm.. that is what I'm here for...."
"Oh good! Because something is definitely wrong with that!"
No crap, Sherlock.

I'm showing this again because it's too awesome.

3. My math teacher thinks he's really funny. He was talking about some philosopher. I wasn't listening to his name. Whatever. And he quoted, I think therefore I am. Whoever said that. Then my math teacher adds this. " Yeah, he said that and then the story goes that he went to a cafe and the guy asked if he wanted a croissant and he said, I think not. Then he disappeared." Then there were crickets... It was so awkward... jeez.

2. I got on the bus to take me up to Campus and walked to the back since I was one of the first people on. The man in front of me took the last available seat so I stopped and grabbed onto the handle. These 2 black men, on the football team, huge, looked at me and said
"Hey sugar, you can sit right here!"
They were BIG guys and they took up 1 and a half seats. So technically there was another seat but it was mostly covered.
"Oh it's fine! I can stand, thank you though!"
"No sweets. You're making me feel fat. Please come sit here. Just sit on our laps."
"Oh really, I'm totally fine standing."
"No seriously. Sit down. now."
So if you didn't know I'm pretty scared of black guys because they are big and intimidating and to add to that, I hate sitting on people laps but since I was pretty scared at this point, I sit... On these guys laps.... The whole way up to campus....

1. I got out of a class a little early and was walking around. Since most classes weren't out yet there were very few people around campus. However there were two people in front of me, including a women talking on the phone who's conversation went like this... while me and another man were a few feet away...
"So basically I have a really stretched out colon so it gets like wrapped up in itself. So I just get constipated all the time. It's awful. They said it was hereditary and I could blame my mom. When my kids get it I'll know what to do since now I have to learn but hopefully I can do something about it so I'm not constipated anymore."
The whole time she was DEAD SERIOUS! She didn't feel awkward at all saying this out loud where it is echoing and me and this stranger man are just listening. I was appalled. So embarrassing.
