So I'm working really hard on my senior writing seminar project, and I spent an hour looking in the davis museum for interesting facts about Davis history, to find that Davis has the most dry and lame history of all time. I thought it would be filled with colorful old stories but it seems that NOBODY FROM THIS FUCKING COMMUNITY WANTS TO HELP. SO FUCK YOU, YOU STUPID MUSEUM. The docent mixed all her dates up and was completely un-interested in my topic. She quickly whisked me through without explaining any of the Davis memorabilia. It's not as if people are clamoring with interest to study davis, and being a DAVIS MUSEUM DOCENT, i would think she'd be more enthused to help me. They were selling this book by JOhn Lofland, who must be the biggest prick I've ever met in my life. I hate this I -search project so much. I called Mr. Lofland a second a go, and I had outlined a series of questions for him. I was as sweet as I could be and I explained what I was doing. I asked if it was a good time and if I could proceed with some questions, he seemed hesitant but said he was willing to participate. When I asked my first question, " What are you favorite human interest stories relating to Davis" He treated me as if I had asked his a pornographic question and raised his voice at me. He said, "perhaps you should re-think your approach!" I told him I was only in high school and I asked what direction he recomended, but he ignored this and said, "I don't want to awnser this!" I said I was sorry and I tried to re-direct my question towards the "Davis Bachelor Girls", thinking he had been offended by a "non-historic" question, but he carried on as if I were a nuisance and an awful bother, it really hurt my feelings. I only wanted his help but appearantly he's too good to help poor students. He gave me the name of "A woman who actually would be interested in this." I am afraid of calling her because if she's half as awful as this man I don't know if I can write this paper. FUCK YOU JOHN LOFLAND.
