So I'm back at tech, been here for almost 5 days now, and I'm just now getting settled in. It's been like non-stop stuff ever since I arrived in blacksburg. I had hardly any time to relax as I had been originally planning. First and foremost, seems like the house was nominated for 'Extream Home Makeover' because so much was being renovated. New driveway, painting the upstairs, new furnature, new carpeting for the entire downstairs, so much freaken work! Also, I've been trying to set up my room electronics, went to someones Crawl, made an apearence at a beer party, put in some community service hours helping freshmen move in, went to a 5 hour Fraternity counsil meeting, etc. I've been so busy I still havent started the robot project I was dreaming about on my drive back down here :-(
    
Any who, something at Alex's birthday bar crawl tonight struck me as interesting. There were a lot of friends there, so of course little cliques formed all over the place so I was doing a lot of mingling to talk with everyone. After working my way out of the engineers group, I went back towards Alex's. He was already pretty drunk but still managed to introduce me. At this point he was hanging out with friends from his theater classes i guess, which was why i needed an intro, but anyways, there was this one kid there that had a japanese girlfriend, so i guess in a feable attempt to play the 'common grounds' card for a less awkward conversation start, he was like, 'This is Dan, he's got the yellow fever too' which completely backfired and only made things more awkward than originally planned, but thats cool, no one cared, he was drunk, all was well in a few min anyways. Thats not the point of this story anyways.
    
Continuing on, seeing those 2 was making me miss Khine. So during my quiet moments at the table, I quickly became infatuated with them, sort of wishing those two people were me and my g/f. As the night went on, I started realizing, you know, that guy is a real ass hole towards her. Not that its any of my business how he works his relationship, but he was very controlling. I noticed he never left her side for a moment, was really deffensive of who she talked to, grabbed things from her hand, and was constantly ordering her, like, 'Hey! Get over here!', and 'Would you just give me that'. I was like, man, what a dick! I started wondering again, what do girls see in that? Man! I hope I never get like that, but if i do, please dont hesitate to tell me, hell, smack me around a bit, because seriously, girls are people too!
    
OH, and just an observation, not making any conclusions here, but, he poped his collar....hmmm...
COMMENT: So, now that you're back at Tech, does that mean that you'll suspend your trend of never getting on Trillian? I gotta have my daily Dan fix
