I know I've already posted an update for today, but the strangest thing just happened.
A van pulled up to our camp and out came a couple important looking business men - and Mari.
I tried to say hello to her, or even catch her eye, but she didn't seem to even notice me. She walked next to one of the men and stared straight ahead like she wasn't even seeing anything at all. I know college is stressful and sucks the life out of you, but this was seriously a different type of fatigue. She looked completely vacant!
The men talked with the professor for a little while, but it didn't seem to be about anything bad. In fact, the professor seemed really happy about it. After they finished talking, he came back with another guy. He's young compared to the others, maybe a little older than me. He's a part of our crew now, "a last minute addition," is what they told us. And then, get this, they just leave.
I didn't even get a chance to talk to Mari! I waved at her as she climbed into the car, and could've sworn we locked eyes, but she acted like she didn't see me. It really hurt my feelings. I'm going to ask this guy if he knows her, and if he does I'm gonna try to poke around and see if I can find out why the hell she's being like this.
See you guys!
