So the new semester is already in full swing, in an amazing and atrocious kind of way.
Last Friday I took my O-week group to South Beach, a local gay club. I do not particularly like South but they wanted to go so we packed into two cars and took them. It was fun, though not something I'd want to do very often. At one point, the four male freshmen wandered off to some man's apartment (one of my co-advisors went with them to make sure nothing happened) and I had to call them and tell them to come back. I had to tell them that we were leaving so that they would come back. So we actually did leave, it was easier.
While questioning my freshmen on why they would go to some random man's apartment, one of them attempted to reassure me by saying "I really felt I could trust the guy. I mean, when we were walking over there, he said to me 'I'm not going to rape you'"
What the hell! Really?! If he says he isn't going to rape you, then he won't. I love my freshmen but they can be dumb.
So while we were at the club, I made out with a guy who had come with us (a friend of my co-advisor). It was fun and the next day I saw him at another party. I asked him if he wanted to go out on a date sometime. He said sure and when we both realized we didn't have phones he just told me to facebook message him.
So I did, and I get a reply that says, pretty much "I'm actually seeing somebody right now. Sorry."
I should be a little angrier, especially because that was a dick move, but mostly I'm just resigned that there are no decent people left in the world.
Right now, I should be writing my adolescent development paper. It's such a broad topic though that I am unsure exactly what to write. I should get on that...
