venturesomeness

so remember that blog about the whole asking a boy out and if it's okay or not? well, Heavenly Father granted me a little bit of courage yesterday annnnd I finally sucked it up and just plain old asked him! I thought I was going to pass out! But, it wasn't reallllly all that bad. Because.... he said yes! :-) I'm not even sure if he knows I intend for this to be a date, but I guess I really don't care because I will be spending the entire evening with this boy. And I'm sure you're alllll itchin as to how things went down, so here's the story:

Okay so I have two classes with this boy (one at 745 and one at 10) so I'm usually pretty excited to wake up at 630 so I can get all fixed up for class at 745 (weird I know). Well yesterday, I actually woke up at 10. on. the. dot. My alarm did not go off! And what's worse is I had a test in my 10 o' clock class! I don't think I've ever gotten ready so fast in my life. My lovely roommate Melanie took me to class thankfully, otherwise I would've been in so much trouble. The downside of being on time, was that I looked pretty awful. No shower. Luckily, I practically threw on makeup so I could look halfway decent. Anyway, class was good. Afterward though, I went home so I could actually get ready like I had originally planned at 630, so I could go back to campus and get stuff done, but also so I could hopefully run into this kid and redeem myself from the disaster I was earlier. Ha. I looked pretty good too. Just sayin. So I went to get lunch in the school cafeteria--no luck there--but I did see my sweet friend Jessica so that was good :-) I decided to go to the library cuz I needed to do some homework, where I ran into my friends Brady, Steffen, and Drew. Funny dudes. Anyway, I had class at 430 and around 420 I headed over there and on the way I sort of said a silent prayer? (If you wanna call it that anyway) Saying basically that if I saw him before class (it was really my last chance before class on wednesday) that I would ask him out. I walked into my class, put my stuff down, but walked back out with the intent on using the restroom. And lo and behold there he was. Like 30 feet from my class. Word. So I took my chance (I was really fidgety and shaky the whole time haha). I went down to talk to him and then just before I left I said "hey I'm going to the haunted mill tomorrow with Stephanie, would you like to come with me?" Annnnd he said he would! In my head I did one of those fist pumps. Haha. 

So there it is ladies (I'm pretty sure no men read my blog). My epic tale of courage. I'm so nervous though! I haven't been on a first date in a lonnng time, let alone with someone I really really like. It's ridiculous--he's completely thrown me off my game (whatever my game is). I've been battling all day (so far) trying not to over-analyze and reminding myself just to have fun. That I'm a fun girl. Plus I personally think a haunted house is a great way to get close to someone. Seriously. I'm kind of banking on that tonight. 

Wish me luck!
