Some girl just came up to me, obviously a medical student, asking if she could "describe me". I guess that means write down my physical characteristics and talk about my personality. I was just sitting in the corner of the quad, browsing WrongPlanet, and bam, she zeros in on me. Its just like yesterday when all the people who signed up for computer science (and had no idea how to program) came up to me looking for advice. I gave it to them, but felt incredibly weird doing it. Like "I dont know you! This stuff is easy!". I'm incredibly quiet, and mostly just like to sit in the back. Why do people always talk to me? STOP!

Yeah, Im probably just weird..

I like my Computer Science classes, we just sit in there and program. The other classes (Political Science, English) involve mostly talking about subjects that are of no interest to me. Also, people usually are more talkative and you get all kinds of crazy people running around the school doing studies.

Im like a turtle. Time to go back into my shell...

She's the one that's weird. Did you ask her if she was on crack?

The answer is obvious- The other kids in the class talked to you because they assume you were smarter than them in the subject.

Thats what I would do if I was in a Programming course also.

In a sense they are just using you to get a better grade.

With the medical student- She probably had to do some kind of survey for her class and figured you would be an easy target.

People have come up to me as well in the past and have zeroed in on me. Depending on what the circumstance is, I don't like it when they do that. I feel as if they are wasting my time and no one wastes my time. Only I will waste my time and no one else darn it lol.
