So today was a bit interesting. No, not in class, but rather in between classes. Okay, lets backtrack. Last term I took a public relations class where I talked to nobody for the first six weeks of the year. In fact, it wasn't until this girl that sat next to me noticed that I was on the Angels website that someone even talked to me. Well, being the friendly person that I am, I struck up a conversation with this girl, and she was actually quite interesting. Well she (forgive me, but I can't for the life of me remember her name) seemed to know everybody within a two row radius of us, including this girl who I didn't notice until the semester was half way through.
Its very rare that somebody catches my attention, and off guard. In fact, before this class I can only recall two instances: Alex and Victoria. But both of these cases were a lot more simple. Being in a speech class with Alex, I learned we had similar tastes in music, politics, and other mindless bullshit right off the bat. We had common ground. And Victoria? We shared common friends. But I did find a way to talk to both of them, and even got Victoria to fall for me. But that's another story entirely. Anyways, back to the story, I see this girl and I just freeze. She's not your conventional type of beauty, but she plays it as part of her charm. And I'm falling for it. She looks like what I picture Tegan and Sara looking like if they were straight. You know, the choppy hair, cute urban outfitters-ish outfits; and I just froze. I think I even started showing up to class to give myself excuses to talk to her. I just couldn't, for the first time in my life, find the words to say to her. And it's not like she didn't acknowledge me because she'd smile at me at times, but I still couldn't talk. Granted I wasn't myself, but still this was something else.
Well I completely forgot about this over the summer, actually right after I finished the final to be honest, until Tuesday when I walked into the College Park Building's Cafe. As I sat down to enjoy my southwest chicken wrap I looked up and who was sitting at the table across from me? Yup, her. And I could tell she was trying to figure out where she knew me from, cause she kept looking. I couldn't believe this. It was like God was saying "Matt I don't think I tortured you enough last semester with that girl from Chili's and this one so here, dwell on this for a while." So what did I do? I Put on "The 59 Sound" and proceeded to eat my lunch. And to think, I was riding a pretty decent ego-trip at the time.
I saw her again today (Thursday) although I didn't have time to say anything, I was on my way to class. And on the very very very very off chance she ever stumbles across this blog and realizes that its her I'm talking about, or you're just sitting there thinking that I'm that pathetic, I'm not at all upset, or even have feelings, over the situation. I don't even know this girl's name, let alone anything about her. For all I know she could be a crazy. It just makes sense that out of everybody I could possibly run into on a campus of 35,000 in a building that is actually across the street from the actual campus, it would be her.
Also interesting, in the same building I ran into an old friend named Sarah that I hadn't seen in ages. I'm talking since like high school. It was kind of cool actually. I now know like five people on that campus. Yay me!!!
I Just remembered that Dexter killed the Ice Truck Killer so I think it's safe for me to fall asleep
Goodnight
Oh wait... I almost forgot. I'll leave you with this: it's how I passed the time today. Click on it to enlarge
