What Is Going On?

Okay, the past 72 hours have been officially deemed wonderful. I completed all my homework, got to spend time with friends, ate wonderful Mexican, made a couple new friends, went swing dancing, watched Sideways, and set up an encounter with a girl. Said girl is in the photo to the right. Along with another dear friend of mine. My eyes might have deceived me, and that is a very possible answer, but in my history class, I could have sworn we caught each other glancing at the other a hundred times. But of course, I can't capitalize on anything, so I walked out without saying anything to her. But I looked her up in the student directory, walked to her dorm room, paid her $5 for gas from Friday, and actually had a normal conversation. Some of my friends here at Luther have a game night every Tuesday, and we sit around and play board games. So, I told her about it, and asked if she might like to come. And she said that she would. So, we'll see if she shows up. I really hope she does. She's a history major and music minor, like me. Well, who knows whether it's a music major or minor, but you get the idea. I don't want to get too encouraged, because nothing has really happened yet. I guess, I don't feel giddy, like I probably would have in high school. I just have a sense of happiness, contentment. Not to get ahead of myself or anything, but it would be fun to be able to bring a girl back home to meet my friends and family sometime. Especially a beautiful one. Gosh, that sounded superficial. I met another girl dancing on Friday. She is half American, half Mexican, and spent the past semester in Mexico. She had some wonderful stories about her time down there. Her love for Mexican culture and people, and her enthusiasm for Spanish I found very admirable and inspiring. She learned Spanish so she could communicate with her family. Now that's cool. Let's move on. Dances With Wolves came today. I ordered it off Amazon, and I am quite excited to watch it again. I watched Sideways last night, which is always enjoyable. To those of you who have never seen Sideways, that is another movie I highly recommend. My friend Jacob is leaving for Germany in a little over a week. He's studying there all semester. I'm going to miss him. With me likely being gone in England next year, these are probably the last days we'll spend together at Luther. That is a shame, but all things must come to an end. It seems like such a short time since I was in high school, and him and Ben were leaving for their first year of college. Man how time flies. Anyways, I should complete my homework. Hope everyone is well.
