awwwwwwwkward

i realized that i really have a lot of awkward, random, and funny encounters with people/situations
every day.
here are some of today's highlights:


#1
running into people on the shuttle.
sometimes, i wish the conversation could stay at, "hey! nice to see you!"
instead, sometimes people i don't really want to sit and small talk with
just keep awkwardly forcing conversation.
so i smile and nod and say something along the lines of 
"cooooool."
..."that's so funny..."
"craaaaaazy"

and hope that the conversation ends.

and then they'll go,
"yeah, and then....."

don't get me wrong, i love talking to people.
but sometimes it's like,
i really don't even know you well enough to have a conversation both of us would rather not have.
let's just be awkward and get over it.

#2-
getting to a class that looks like it's completely full.
..finding a seat in the middle of the room, middle of the row.
...having to climb over twenty people's toes and trip over bags on the ground.

#3-
sitting next to someone in class and continually, accidentally rubbing elbows with him.
so awkward.

#4-
getting on the shuttle (again) and having to stand next to this guy that always drunk texts/calls me.
he introduces me to his friend and says, "she loves me."
i decided i need to start walking home from school instead of taking the shuttle.

#4-
hearing about "free pizza" at fredrico's
and having to sit through an hour meeting on selling "the living scriptures" DVDs.
only to get COLD pizza at the END.
we had to introduce ourselves to a whole group of people and say why we were interested in the program.
i said,
"hi....i'm jasmine.....i'm here because.....well.....okay i'm here for the free food."

#5-
being in the middle of an important phone call with a manager in my internship program
and having my phone randomly shut off in the middle of it.
........i kept talking for who knows how long, before i realized he was not responding.
