in the middle of studying for my math midterm last night i must have made the most original, if not creative, mistake i've made in a while, and i make lots of really dumb mistakes. i couldn't figure out a derangement problem, so i decided to call a math major i know named Adam. the conversation went something like this:

Tae-Yeoun: Adam? Hi! It's Tae-Yeoun!
Adam: Tae-Yeoun! How are you?!
Tae-Yeoun: Pretty miserable, actually. I need help with a math problem. Are you busy now?
Adam: No, not at all. Uh... what's the problem?

[five minutes (at least) of Tae-Yeoun trying to explain the problem and Adam making sure the problem doesn't give any more information]

Adam: I don't see it, sorry. Maybe if you call Eunice or Bryan they might be more helpful.
Tae-Yeoun: Who?
Adam: Eunice Yang and Bryan Lee?
Tae-Yeoun: How do you know Eunice and Bryan?
Adam: Hello? Is this Tae-Yeoun?
Tae-Yeoun: Yeah, is this Adam?

[big *oh* moment]

Adam, you're the best.
