So last night was REAL interesting. So after having his mom tell him he wouldn't be able to participate in the fraternity, Clayton worked out some kind of deal with her that said that he could stay over at my place on Tuesday nights and head back early in the morning on Wednesday. Ordinarily, this wouldn't be a problem, but it seems like something new has happen to mess up his chances. He realizes that coming from Fayetteville to Pembroke and back (about a 45 minute trip one way) cost about 20.00 in gas everytime he does it. And with this fraternity business, he'd be going back and forth (in the event he actually gets a bid) at least two to three times a week. Averaging anywhere from 60 to 80.00 a week in gasoline. Times that by three months and thats 720.00 in gasoline strictly for Phi Mu Alpha. And the thing is, he only makes 60.00 a week. So...thats gonna be a problem. Meaning, he may not get to do it, even after all of this trouble of putting it together.
As far as it goes with me, last night Clayton showed up and we went over to Ryan's apartment (which is adversely on the second floor) and found most everyone there just chilling around not doing much at all. The thing was, everything was so....quiet! I didn't expect that in the least bit. I remember heading over to PJ's place when he was in Pembroke Pointe, and his parties were always crazy, loud and drunk. They just seemed to be so low key. So much so that I had to state: "What the hell is everyone doing? Having a moment of silence for Heath? I mean, damn!" So anyway, we got there and I have to say I pretty much turned the party around single-handedly. Before I was going up there, I was thinking about how I should conduct myself, given that at the two other previous times I've participated in this little events, I would just keep myself off to the side, and observe, but last night I was in the mind-set of FUCK IT. This is my LAST semester, so they can all kiss my black ass. I'm through being anti-social and feeling like I don't belong there. So I went in there and we laughed and talked about everything from Angelina Jolie to how fine everyone thought Jessica Biel was. Overall, it was good night. I'm just hoping that realization will come back through at the end of the week when it really counts. But...with these guys, who knows?
