Am back after a night of barbeque, rum coke and tequila shots. Can't say I can remember everyone's name but they probably don't remember mine either...what with the number of newbies everyone had to meet tonight.
It was a really good day as far as good days go.
Watched Cinema Paradiso, reached out to some kid, had really good barbeque with my alcohol - and bantered with the Muse.
Not bad at all.
Also, was able to talk to rainman today after class and was pleasantly surprised to learn that he wasn't as autistic as I thought he was. I was caught by surprise when he apologized for his demeanor on our first day. This means that one, he is aware of his lack of social skills; two, he is aware of how he is perceived and three, he must definitely take note when people treat him like nothing.
I'm glad I didn't go down that route and managed to do the decent thing and reach out to this kid.
I can't say every day here has been perfect, (hell some days made me feel so inadequate and out of place you wouldn't believe it) but I can say that every day spent here has made me feel alive.
And that's all I can ask for.
