LoveClips :p
Hey Trauma!
THANK YOU so much for the advice you gave about the paper clip situation! really the only sound actual ADVICE i got so far... every body keeps saying "it's up to you" and frankly i am an emotional blob right now and can't assess whether or not I'll look like an idiot! i can't make up my mind whether i really like him or not right now since he disappeared for a while and hasn't been putting any effort to reciprocate... but i figured i'll give him the clips anyway... what have i got to lose right? So, I was thinking of either 1) going myself and giving him in person just slide the box across the desk with a big smile and say something along the lines of "thanks for saving my academic life last time! I'm finally done!" ... but i am afraid it's too cheesy and i don't want the people around us to stare... i mean the library is a busy place :s ALWAYS. 2) i was thinking of giving it to a random stranger (mind you in both cases it contains a note) with the note that says:
Thank you...
my initials or name or something
and my email...
too dramatic?!?
3) i was thinking of dragging a friend of mine as my "wingwoman" pretending to be talking in the middle of the hall on our way out, but interrupt our convo to go give him the box and then (possibly) go back out with her in case of a disaster... kind of a spin to the first scenario but this one i can't conduct until later in may since my friend (who's the only person who knows) is gone for a while....
ahhh i am so confused i am not sure what to do...
plus being there yesterday I think the "jerk" who works with him wants to start talking to me... it's getting way out of hand!

Maybe give some free advice about: Work/School Relationships?
I'd just give them to him myself if I were you. As hard as it may be, you shouldn't worry so much about what other people say. You could just put a note with the paper clips thanking him, & give him your email, & hand it to him without saying anything so that the guy sitting next to him won't start getting too suspicious.
I wouldn't have your friend do it for you because it might confuse him or give him the wrong idea. If you really want to, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have your friend there for support, but if he does decide he wants to talk to you after he reads the note (in person), he might be a little put off because you're standing there with your friend.
So, if I were you, I'd just give him the box with a note, & wait to see if he shows any interest in return. Just don't be nervous. If he turns you down or the guy next to him starts making fun of the situation, it's not the end of the world, I promise.
ADDED:
Try prepping yourself up first before you talk to him. Tell yourself that you can do this. It'll help you out a lot. If you have negative thoughts like "I can't do it", tell yourself "Yes, I can".
If the subtle approach isn't working, it may be time to just ask him flat out. Just ask him out on a date or something.
