Sophomore Retreat


Just to continue on the previous post, with more real life details.

Sophomore retreat is like a field trip that I used to have in high school, or middle school. Although the "class" is quite bigger, it is still a good chance to get "together". Field trips, always, promote physical contact and/ or romance.

It would not be much of my romance. I did not expect any for me, but for my roommate. However, it seems like, the time has come for me to have some romantic feeling again. I wouldn't say that it would come any where far, but, a bit of sweetness - is not bad.

It all started with the Contra-dance. Hmmm, hahahahaha. Like, Pride and Prejudice or Becoming Jane 's dances. Pretty interesting. 'Cause you get to partner with multiple guys. It's weird, and it's fun.

At night, when it was so cold, while I was shivering.
In the dining hall, where the speakers had been set up,
I knew, we would have some weird activities.

It all started with, "[taking] off your outer wear, cause you won't need them later on."
I went to put my coat away, walked back to the spot where I had been standing. We were forming a circle. My friends weren't there for some reason, there is a spot next to me for some reason.
He walked in and the spot was right there. It's just because we had Calculus class, Chemistry class and lab together; just because we were in the same group once for lab, that he chose the spot next to me. No big deal.

The (obvious) next step was holding hand with the person next to you. (Of course!) It might be that physical contact quickened the progress, for me. We danced (-ish). Then we parted, for a long time. Before we were back again in a one-guy-two-girl group. Then we parted. (forever)

I mean, we hold hand several times, what-so-ever. I don't really think it would be a problem. But, it became a problem because he was good-looking. And his smile is very appealing.

Camp-fire !!!! Warm and cozy. I was wishing to have another romantic moment with him, but, no.
Why do I wish for a romantic moment? Well, that's all I need. I wouldn't wish him to like me, for I had not liked him yet.
Thinking back again. Did he choose me because I was wearing a blue sweater (and it is the nicest one in my closet)? Well, I don't know.

There is one thing I know. That is, we are very very different. It looks like we are on the two extremes of the scale as introvert-extrovert. Simply putting, he is an SGA officer. Hmm. Notwithstanding those things like, manga-anime, art, silence, that I so preferred and he seems not. Nah. I say I'm ready for an one-sided feeling.
