MSU

As an incomming freshman at MSU and member or the Racer band, we were required to report two weeks prior to the begining of classes for "band camp". The first part of this is registration in which you have to wait in a very, very long line to update info, get assigned a room, be assigned an audition time and get fitted for a uniform. A week after this process I started getting mysterious phone calls from this guy, whom I did not know and we were also getting alot of hang ups on our phone. Very busy with school and work and what not I was not home alot, and my parents got the brunt of this annoyance. Apparently after many missed calls he actually talked to my mother, and said his name and that he was a good friend of mine from band and he was really trying to get a hold of me because he wanted to take me out. I had NO clue who the hell this guy was, so I called the number back just to get to the bottom of it. This was a guy that was behind me in that long ass line for band registration who had proceeded to write down all my information when I had had to give it to the registration people. He acted like we were good friends or something when i called, and didnt seem to "get" why I was quite irritated that he had "taken" my info.

Fortunately althought the kid was wierd and we were never really friends, he ended up being harmless I suppose. But I was quite upset at the happenings. Why the hell would someone do that?? I had never really felt paranoid about that sort of thing before. But now anytime that I am asked for my information somewhere, ssn, phone etc. I am definitely more conscious of those surrounding me.
