ACTION :Girl walks in
IF girl too hot and/or snooty: [[stare]]
IF girl approachable: [[whaddya waitin' for? talk to her, jerk]]
See? It's all inbuilt.
The only problem is that I'm also inherently shy and don't accost girls even when they look approachable.
The president of the club welcomed her and asked for her name.
"Elizabeth" She says
Okay, flashback time.
Just before embarking on this relationship, I invented this girl who'd signed into our club, and kept talking about her. Just testing waters, you know. I'd named her Elizabeth, apparently after Liz Bennet (whom I'll marry, you just wait and see). So anyway, it was a tremendous co-incidence that an Elizabeth who doesn't call herself Beth or Eliza or Liz for that matter, walks into our club.
I take a second-helping of the salad (yeah, yeah we talk about world hunger over lunch... don't we all love ironies?). I carry my book along with me. And then I do something I've never done before. I suavely walk and sit right next to her. I act as the "host" and ask her how she finds our Uni and whether she'd like something to eat. She replies graciously. We chat for a while. She asks about the book I'm holding. It was David Plotz's "The Genius Factory". The basic premise of the book is the history of a sperm-bank that allowed only Nobel Prize winners to submit. I'm not sure whether sleazy masturbating scientists make an excellent topic for an ice breaker, but it sailed our boat quite well. Then the meeting starts.
After we're done with our lunch, we broke off in groups to spread word about our club. Basically, writing chalk messages all around the campus. Vandalism and propoganda, does it get better? Elizabeth and I walk around looking for places to chalk. She writes first with her yellow chalk and I form an outline around it with my blue one. At some point, she messed up and she swears- "Oh, sugar"
Good Lord, do people like that actually exist?

I'm not in Facebook, although I'm being peer pressured into getting one. But maintaining a blog is stressful enough.
Aww, ickle Nitin has a little crush! I approve :)
Well technically speaking, I'm not into Facebook either. I just have an account there so that I can snoop on people. You're right, maintaining a decent blog is stressful enough.
Though, I myself don't approve of the "crush" (in quotes because it wasn't one. I insist)... as you shall soon see.
Ooooh! A cliffhanger! Nitin, this is killing me, update please!
VoilĂ
