back from a coffee run.
On my coffee run I made three new friends respectively. I meet really interesting people in coffee shops. For example:
Will - An english major, who loves hardcore (as in 'when 'hardcore' actually meant something'). Hooked me up with a DOA show for tomorrow night. Has two younger brothers who both play in bands. The elder of the two in a decent ska band and the youngest in what Will describes as a 'pitiful trash metal attempt'. Fell asleep in a couseling session at a coffee shop this morning. Likes the colour purple. Enjoys edge theatre and neologisms and spent at least ten minutes convincing Andrew and I to take the term 'clinch-poop' into the world.
'clinch-poop'
- one who clinches (or clenches) the poopdeck (or top deck) of a ship, presumably in fear. (A logical synonym for 'clinch-poop' would be 'coward'.)
There you have it. Call someone a clinch-poop today. Will says so.
Angela - A theatre major who is Christian and trying to figure out her calling in life. Frustrated with a lack of connections between the youth staff and youth group at her church (one of the biggest in the Fraser Valley). When we ran into her she was cramming for a course she was taking in youthwork. She's been on numerous missions trips all over the world. Thinking about becoming a teacher. Annoyed at having to go to lengthy scene rehearsals in which she has one line. We talked about men and women and the differences between, and enjoyed discussing the origins and significance of cusswords.
Helena - Twenty-three years old. English major. Kindly tried to help us out with logging on to the wireless internet at Ethical Addictions which we couldnt seem to master. Favourite flavour of icecream is tiger tail. Went to Western Bible College at seventeen, as their youngest student. Now considers herself only marginally Christian. Lives with roomates that she squabbles with and has a starving artist for a sister. Has been married and divorced already and considers herself a jaded human being. Her favourite book is one called Einstein's Dreams. She loved it so much that she gave away her own copy a couple of times. The last time she did it she couldn't find the book again in bookstores so she doesn't have a copy anymore.
We both have an interest in urban art. On her way out, she scribbled her phone number on a napkin and passed it to me.
Seriously, this is two hours in a coffee shop. And people wonder why I love humanity so.
