Food... No, People for Thought
For example, I'm sitting at the FOF information desk right now and I just said goodbye to a gentleman and his wife. They put a pin in our US map for Aurora, New York. Then, another volunteer, Zarya asked about the snow. He showed us pictures of the ridiculous amount of white stuff. They have their own snow plow, believe it or not. As he was clicking through everything, there were tropical pictures. Apparently, he had just helped build more hospitals in South America. Psh! Who doesn't do that? They asked me what I enjoyed doing in Seattle and I printed off directions to their hotel. As they were leaving, he saw the scholarship papers I was working on. One said Embry-Riddle. Guess where he graduated from in '71. Yep! And in Aeronautical Engineering, no less. That's what I want + space physics = engineering physics. I wish I could've interacted more, but, for the brief moment I made a connection, I'll never cease to be shocked by the intricate nature of the humans my Lord created!
Labels: Embry-Riddle, FOF, just for fun
