By reading that title, you’re probably thinking to yourself, “But Alex, isn’t every day in your life awkward?” Yes, that is true. I’m just a really awkward person. Every day of my life is a journey through Awkward City, which I am the mayor of.
Today in Econ was just another example of my awkwardness/lack of social skills. Class was about to start when I realized I didn’t have a pencil. I could have asked any of the other 75 people in the class if they had an extra pencil, but instead I walked out of the classroom and into the hallway to look on the ground to see if anyone had dropped a pencil anywhere. I think even cavemen figured out how to borrow pencils from each other. That’s how easy it is.
Then later in the class, my 40-year-old professor’s cell phone went off and his ringtone was LL Cool J. He was beyond embarrassed. Some guy in the class asked, “What IS that?” To which my professor responded: “Umm…uhh…it’s LL Cool J. He’s making a comeback.”
I think I might have some company in Awkward City.

i think it’d be a really neat part of my day if i observed you doing/saying some of the things that you say you do/say.
