First day back at school. Got asked out by two girls that I've been flirting with for ages. I really have no rubrik for deciding which I'll go with, but the indecision is a good one.
Go for the hidden third option: "Why not both?"
Nice work nonetheless. Wish I had that kind of luck... ever.
Hidden third option: Gross amounts of physical harm. I think you would have the same luck if you were my age and in school now. The silent gentlemen sort are getting noticed more nowadays.
Back in my days, we were intangible. Hell, either I wasn't noticed, even when standing in front of someone I took interest in, got laughed out in public in an attempt to ask someone out (and against instinct; learned to trust them far more often afterward, and learn to find ways to become a benevolent asshole by adulthood), or people only showed interest in me ONLY if I explain my career plans (which initially started as truth, but then became a means of manipulating a conversation into forming). My sketchpad was essentially my spellbook for summoning a conversation. My imagination and drawings, my runes.
Yeah, my social life back then either sucked, or was bad in general. At least as an adult, I'm making sure to make up for it in heaps and see if anyone can recognize me by my high school reunion (CLASS OF '03 WOO!!!). I still find it entertaining that it's 2 years from now, and whether the world ends or not, I'm gonna enjoy it one way or another. So far, some people I've known in the past state I never changed as time passed, and I barely recognize them nowadays (min. 5 years since last seen). Too bad I lack a second heart, otherwise I could prove I'm a time lord.
EDIT:
Well, despite having it on my machine already, it's nice to see Gurren Lagaan airing on syfy again. But why is anime now playing on Tuesdays? Thanks for the heads up syfy. Did better when you were Sci-Fi.
