"That girl" From Freshman year

Now I now many of the people that read this horrible joke of a blog, and I know that many of them have made mistakes in the "Ladies" department. I'm not talking about JCPenny's lady's dept. but the opposite sex dept, but not the one at the outpatient plastic surgery office. Confusion. So I know that a few of you have made bad decisions on picking girls, many, freshman year of college. I know that Josh goofed his freshman year with whats-er-name. Sammer had the crazy girl who flew off the handle. Luke Dockery's wife was one of those crazy girls. And Brian Lam always, ALWAYS found the crazy ones.

On island there is a term for crazy girls and guys. Families refer to ex-husbands as "The man" and ex-wives as "The woman." They don't even say the names, ever. I guess its for the better.

My freshman year of college I had a "That girl" experience. So there I was a awkward freshman at the age of 17 strait out of Junior year. I was in English Composition I. We got to write about stuff. I was also busy with Chemistry and some other classes. So there was this girl, Sarah Farris (not her name anymore). I'm sure Sarah wasn't immediately enthrawled with me, but I've got a ridiculous sense of humor, or she was desperate, I'm not really sure. So I began to grow on Sarah, without me trying at all. I would be my stupid self and she laughed. I recall one night walking back to the dorm in 34degree cold after jumping in the fountain just to amuse her. It was fun and I had Brian Lam with me. She is also the reason I am friends with Sam T. today. One night for open house I invited her over to my dorm room. After waiting for an hour and she didn't show I ventured down the hall. I found Sam's door open and he was playing FIFA soccer, he wasn't very good so I offered my thoughts. Later I was sulking in Josh's room when Brian L. came by and informed me Sarah dropped by my room but couldn't find me. Dope. So after a while I started to realize that this Sarah girl had a thing for me. Unfortunately it wasn't until she would call me at 2am for chemistry help and laid a kiss on me in the middle of the Student Center. That was strage. But I thought it was some sweet action and thought I might go for some more.

But things didn't go as I had planned. I had a good friend by the name of Daniel Burns who was watching out for me that year. Burns realized that there was something not quite right about this girl. So instead of being like, "hey Paul, she's no good." And me being stupid and like, "you just want her for yourself jerk." Burns found a different way. "Hey Paul, you ever notice that when she makes that face her chin completely molds in with her neck?" "no." But every time she made this face after being dismayed about something her chin would disappear. Not cool. It wasn't cool. We stopped talking. And sure enough Burns was right, there was something not right. She turned out to be a bit of a skank. Mary-Beth could tell you the story about her getting caught sneaking out of the girls dorms at 1am in the morning, for waffles I'm sure.

So here's a big thanks to Daniel Burns for watching out for me that year. You rock.
