What if......???


Today I was killing time waiting for my next class to start and I was in the bookstore looking at the funny books, and I saw this book called "If...(Questions for the Game of Life)" and I started to read it, and I was laughing and having an epiphany all in a few lines of reading that book {partly because the night before I was asking kelly what questions she asks people to get to know them more, because I feel like the questions like "Whats your major?" or "Where you from?" are vital questions to get to know someone, but are oober boring.} So this book has questions like "If you could be one article of clothing, what would you be, and who would you want to belong to?" Its kind of funny, AND doesn't have any generic questions. Anyway...to the point!

So Me, Kelly, and a bunch of her friends were all eating lunch in the Nordic. And I was reading from this book and we were all talking about our answers in between questions and stuff. We were mingling, basically. SO anyhow, this awkward boy comes up and just stands at our table and stares at us {Super awkward, right?} OH THANK HEAVENS I had my book, because I hate moments like that {the socially awkward boy making us all feel really weird}. So I quickly thought, "why don't I read another question and make the boy seem welcome at our table? Also, it would make us feel less uncomfortable if he wasn't lingering." So I asked a question he, mumbled an answer along with everone else. Then he walked away.


THE POINT people is that this book saved me and my friends from a really awkward moment and maybe some potential teasing all within short time frame from when I bought it to when awkward moment happened was an hour! woot!
