Some Looking Back


This conversation took place during our last summer of still having conversations. We were both working on moving to Lancaster. Neither of us was sure where we would work or how we would subsist. We were low on cash, and discussed our situations frequently. Also, he and LBC had differing views on cursing.
A Conversation from July 21, 2008
10:18 PM Ken: [...]
  SPONTANEOUS!
  I found five dollars today while i was packing my books and throwing away trash
10:19 PM it was in an envelope from the President of LBC that I got when I graduated but never opened for some reason (hint: reason is that I would need it later)
 me: did the prez of LBC give all of the grads a $5?
 Ken: yes
  it comes with a form
  and a suggestion that you give it back to lbc
10:20 PM me: no
 Ken: and commit to giving five dollars every month
  hahaha
  no joke
  I don't feel even a little bad about this.
  It's GOD's money, right? And clearly he was saving it for my time of need. So LBC can shove it. hahahahhahaha
10:21 PM :P
 me: cuz God said so
 Ken: When I had my exit interview
  's'right
  they talked to me about donating as an alumnus
  and the guy doing the interview was actually (by chance, a bunch of different staff do the exits) the VP of Financial Affairs
10:22 PM and he started it with "Idk what God has in store for you. You know? You could be a millionaire--"
  And I started laughing pretty hard
  and then I said, "I promise, if God makes me a millionaire, I'll give some money back to LBC."
  hahaha
10:23 PM me: lol
 Ken: (Image of myself making out a 100 dollar check and writing something smart in the Memo line."
  )
 me: what would you write? c'mon on now
  my choice would be "because I am now a millionaire"
10:24 PM Ken: "As promised; Hope you don't mind this money from a dirty fucker."
  tell me not to write cusses!
  lol
  you know they'd still cash it, too
  hahaha
10:25 PM me: well, they might mumble something about the money of the rich being stored up for the poor...
  *money of the wicked
 Ken: same diff
  haha
  they might mumble
  but they'd mumble in line at the bank
10:26 PM Nick is convinced they are funded by the CIA
  (LBC)
 [...]
10:30 PM Ken: I know that the VP of Financial Affairs actually told me (when he was asking me to give) that for "some reason" LBC is one of the few colleges that isn't mostly supported financially by their alumni, b/c LBC alumni give a "shockingly" little amount to the college
 me: God works in mysterious ways...
 Ken: So does the CIA!
 me: lol
  i gotta go
 Ken: k
  have fun tomorrow
  don't get too lost
 me: thanks, sorry you can't come!
 Ken: it's okay
 me: i'll try hard not ot
  *to
 Ken: call my house if you get lost and need directions
  Cause I don't work until 5, I'll be packing
 me: expect a call
10:31 PM Ken: haha, okay
  bye!
 me: i'm serious
  cya!
 Ken: okay
  haha
