Word to the Wise...

On Tuesday night, I decided to celebrate my A on my first exam of the semester. Conveniently enough, it was Mardi Gras. My girlfriend (we'll call her Chloe) and I went to the Grove, a cute little strip of bars, restaurants and shops and a hot spot for UM students. Chloe and I were sharing a pitcher at one of our favorite bars and doing what we do best: people watching. As our eyes scanned the dance floor a very attractive pair of eyes met mine. Hello Mr. RicoSuave (that's what I'll call him). He mouthed "hi" to me and as I smiled and mouthed "hi" back he began to approach me. As he made his way towards me, I noticed he was my type to a tee: tall, dark and very handsome (with blue/green eyes, my kryptonite!). RicoSuave and I chatted a little bit and then he gave me his number telling me to text him so he'd have mine. A few hours after our encounter and a few pitchers later, I was feeling confident. "hey it's sophia" I said. We didn't end up meeting up that night but he told me to let him know if I was going to the grove Thursday night.

Thursday night rolls around and after a horrendous mixer with the nice guys, I need a little bit of RicoSuave in my life. I texted him to see if he was going to the grove and here is how the conversation went:

Me: hey are you going to the grove tonight?

RicoSuave: Yea r u?

Me: Yes

RicoSuave: :)

Me: Maybe I'll see you there :)

RicoSuave: Yah babe if anythng u cud slp ovr ;)

......

At this point I thought about enlisting Rico in the Tool Academy. What a fucking idiot. He blew any chances of even getting to know me. Not only, did he think I was going to sleep with him after chatting with him for an approximate 10 minutes, he can't even spell correctly on a goddamn text message! For a night, I lost all hope in the male species. (not until I watched Freddy Prince's "Head over Heels" the next morning did I regain hope).

If any boys are reading this blog, word to the wise...DON'T EVER USE THIS LINE OR ANYTHING CLOSE TO IT...EVER! It only makes you look sleazy and lame.

Later on that night, RicoSuave texted me...

RicoSuave: Hey wher r u?

Me: I decided not to go out tonight, sorry

Right after I sent that final text, I deleted his phone number. So now it's friday and the weekend is starting and I finally have no tests the following week (sorry I haven't blogged in awhile, I've been a good little student studying!) This weekend will be full of debauchery and I promise to fill you all in!

Love and a Glass of Wine,

Sophie <3
