Andrew Martin

Since i came here and i met a lot of ppl, i made friends with most of them, and i definetly learnt at least one thing from all of them. But no one had an impact on me as much as Andrew Martin did !!!
This white, blue-eyed, Texan guy, with a nice smile (as obvious in the pic) and an incredible eagrness to drink, and drink, and drink, and drink........(Long Live Recessions DC !!!).......lol
Well officially this guy is the LCP of @ in DC, which basically means he's the leader of the @ team in Washington, so when i first met him, i only thought it will be a normal nice relation between one of the trinaees and the President of the LC who's most probably alwyas busy with lots of stuff, but for our surprise things went in quite an unusual and unique path !!
I can't remember how we first started having long conversations but i guess it started as a political conversation and then it turned out to cover vairous issues of the world. Then we both found out that we are MUNers who share the same passion for going to conferences and learning about international affairs (of course he studies int'l affairs as 99.999% of the GW students) and then our relation started to develop, but one thing i'll never forget for this man was that he truly welcomed me to his circle of friends, and he was always welcoming to take me to hang out with his friends who are outside the @ circle and this was really something that i enjoyed so much and becoz of that our relation became more of a personal friendship than a good president-to-trainee relationship and this relationship added to my experience a lot and as i said.
We talked about everything, politics, middle east, relationship, love, sex, previous experiences, and we talked a lot about @ and about our personal dreams, and these 2 topics were always froming the best conversations we had (beisde politics of course hahahahaha)
Well i can keep talking a lot about him, as i really admire and like the guy (ok i'm not gay if ur wondering!!) but i'd rather post a question for the @ ppl in DC "Tell me what do u like , and hate most about him ?" (waiting for ur comments ppl)
He travelled to Inida to a big @ int'l conf there and i don't think i'll meet him again before i leave and this really bothered me, but i'm sure we're gonna meet in the future(next summer in Cairo man :)
I'll add some stuff more to this topic but not now
Andrew, i miss u man, i hope ur enjoying India

Andrew Martin is the BIGGEST D-Bag I have ever met!!!! HAHAH Fady you have to have Andrew explain what d-bag is, or i'm pretty sure he already did. He's a great guy, i'm glad to see you had a good friendship with him
