Killian's ipod
Friday, September 8. 2006
I have a moment now - between dinner and parties, so I thought I'd share a little story from last night that really just shows the good nature of the people around here.
So we went to a party last night in the room of a guy named Killian (yes, exactly like Killians .. the beer). The boy had a giant hookah pipe, and thus was party central for approximately 4 hours last night (or more... that's just how long we were there). As you can probably tell by the fact that he had (for those of you who don't know) the equivalent of a gigantic water bong, he is a pretty chill guy. And for my parents -- no drugs. You smoke herbal fruit crap via charcoal in it (and I didn't smoke, because I don't smoke).
Late in the night, he went next door. He came back with ipod speakers complaining that somebody had nabbed his ipod. We were kinda curious about what had happened, and he explained that he had left it over there for some friends to listen to in good nature. When he went to get it, they were pretty gone (stoned or drunk or both... not sure which). And the ipod was missing. Obviously upset at the loss of his recent purchase, he took a drag or two off the hookah pipe and declared that he didn't care who did it or why. He just wanted the thing back. He told us (6 at this point) to spread the word.
We saw Killian again at the international students' orientation today, carrying along his ipod. He said that somebody had knocked on his door and when he opened it up, the ipod was on the floor. He was happy about it, too. Didn't seem to bother him.
How cool is that.
