I have a sad starbucks story
On my way to work there is a starbucks, it is conveniently placed, and it is staffed by people who by now know what I order every day. For some reason, I like it when I walk in and they have already prepared my large americano
On to the sad part, I start work at 7:00am, and they just changed their hours to opening at 8:00am every day! I guess none of my co-workers go to starbucks, so it wasn't worth it for them
Now those workers have gone to the new swank location, and the close starbucks sucks, and is never open...

Aww, that really blows.

Dude I've been hunting girl blogs ever sincethe dawn of time I discovered the blogs section. Errr, regarding MS, the guild has been officially dead (as far as I know) for past 2-3 months. If you want some of my stuff be specific (leave me a PM or chat me on TS) and I'll see if I have it.
Dude I've been hunting girl blogs ever since
Haha, new things everyday. I'll remember to write one every now and then just for you.

Sounds like a good experience. My personal theory is that the more you run into these sorts of social situations where you can make a spontaneous connection, you get more and more comfortable and may later be able to work in the possibility of seeing her more. You know, this time it was just talking for a short while about food but maybe next time you get her name and find out what she does around campus, maybe even sit down together at the starbucks, etc etc
try to be at the starbucks at the same time next week!

Defs. It's the last week of school though. Still, I've got three more years here!

SB helped me get to know a girl better. Hm. I'd known her before but hadn't really talked to her much. She only started talking to me 'cause after she saw me at a SB working, she thought I was interesting enough to talk to; apparently she thinks that people who study at cafes are usually interesting, while those who don't can be interesting, but it's hard to tell sometimes. I told her she collected interesting people. She said it wasn't quite as calculated as I'm making it out to be, because it isn't that she collects interesting people, just that she discards(?) boring people.
She's a great storyteller and is judgmental (but she recognizes this) and perceptive about people's characters; I called her a psychoanalyst jokingly, because some of the things she says ... she can pin people down pretty accurately over a short period of time. She also says things sometimes that make me think about how I relate to people, and I've become a lot more aware of both myself and others and those connections, if that makes sense.
She's one of those people who can just make friends pretty easily on the spot without being a social butterfly; I don't know if it's charisma, but if it is, it's a subtle form of it. Still pondering about it.
EDIT: Which is not to say I'm interesting, lol. Just caught that. She told me once about this other girl who was so boring she was interesting in her boringness. Maybe I'm one of those, because I don't think I'm particularly interesting myself. ^^;

Not sure if very intriguing girl, or completely crazy. The line is thin.
