He continued to lay on the bed, attempting to get a bit of rest. Unfortunately, his mind had other ideas; something reminded him of a poster he had seen earlier in the day. With no small amount of effort, he dragged himself off the bed, opened up his backpack, and took out his phone. A few seconds later he was looking at a picture of one of the posters he saw. It intrigued him, although it was most likely either a prank or would be a meeting for crazy people. Still, what if it was legitimate? He could finally settle the age-old question of whether or not intelligent life existed beyond Earth. Nobody would believe him if it did prove to be what it claimed, but at least it would settle his own doubts. Regardless of what happened, he figured, it would likely be interesting enough to be worth his time. Several minutes later, he found the motivation to pack his backpack with some basic necessities just in case, and then he threw himself back onto the bed and fell asleep.
