For the past four months, my co-teachers (by the way, I’ve been teaching at some random medical school for four months now) have been my alibi whenever I have a date. (And I don’t know why I still act like a teenager, but whenever I go out on dates, I always tell my parents I’m going out with friends. I’m immature that way, what.) But, since two ( Read more... )

I've been crushing on one of my med classmates for the longest time. But all of my interactions with him thus far are all of the "hi!"-smile-wave variety. A casual "what's up?" is already lucky. After postponing my actually workin' it with him for five years, I decided to finally ask him out, with total disregard for the currently prevailing " ( Read more... )

undergrad: excuse me...
me: (looks up from my book)
undergrad: (looks surprised) um... can i borrow a pen?
