nnyYesterday: On my way to college a guy on a motorbike pulled over to the side of the road and kissed a bloke walking along the pavement.
Today: Captain Hook and the Grim Reaper in my sociology class.
* I think I have a long term plan.
* I would appreciate recommendations, should anyone have them, of sociologists, psychologists and philosophers who have babbled about religion. Yup. Whut?
* Very tired.
* Oscar Wilde is the fuckin' coolest.
* Okay, this one's gonna be a long bullet point. There's this girl at college that I support, see. We shall call her Stu. She's in a wheelchair and can't talk, but she's really lovely and seriously into music, goes to see bands all the time, that sort of thing. When she has something to say to me she types it into her mobile. She typed to me today that she wanted to hang out with the alternative crew but was shy - another LSA was like I WILL ASK THEM and I was like PLZ GOD NO because just... Stu's face. The other LSA does not understand how normal people work, she's very strident and adult, y'know?
So, since some of the alternative crew like me, we went and hung around them for a bit - I couldn't, like, force them to talk to her, but she was present, at least. Making herself visible. When we left one of the girls said hey - they're in Sociology class together. So then Stu wrote to me and said that that girl's the kind of person she wants to hang out with, likes, but she doesn't know how to approach. It's awkward, was how she put it.
How do I deal with this? I said we'd talk tomorrow, but I don't know precisely what to say. I don't know what advice to give her. I mean, I can do the generally supportive thing, and I can help her out a little, but frankly I'm bloody awful at making friends myself and the whole thing is made infinitely more difficult by the fact that Stu can't speak.
So. Yeah. If anyone has any ideas, I'd really love to hear them. :/
* I still haven't watched the ep of Heroes I have downloaded. I'll get to it.
* I'm hoping I'll get used to the whole working thing again ASAP because omg so much to do but omg so tired.
