I was misled today in the most awful manner.

There was a boy on campus handing out fliers that invited people to attend a Tea Party, which I thought sounded lovely. Who doesn't love a tea party, after all? There's always delicious tea and usually wonderful little cakes or tarts or other sweets. Usually one has a tea party with friends, and so there's good conversation and company. When I asked about these things, however, the young man described something completely different. It didn't sound at all like a lovely tea party, but rather like a boring political gathering. I gave him back his flier and left, but then decided to give him an explanation for my displeasure – he seemed very confused when I told him that he shouldn't deceive people with his posters.

When I went back to find him, though, he was gone.

And now I'm not sure if he was ever there, or if he was something that I just imagined on my way to Philosophy... But what an odd daydream that would be.
