First day of a new semester

I started the spring semester today at UIC. I knew it was a strange day because of the amount of traffic on the roads ('specially addison... ugh) but I paid no attention to it. The train ride was mostly uneventful and I got to campus with plenty of time to spare. I met up with Transit Kid and we decided to go over the SCE. Now here's the freaky shit: who do I see there but Army Girl!

"Oh shit!" was my thought exactly.
Now, since I haven't explained the back story I have with Army Girl, I'll take this time to do so.

I met Army Girl outside of English class last semester. We immediately hit it off, she was laughing at all my jokes (I'm a quite witty guy) and she had class next door. Later that day, Skeety and I decided to hit up the pool hall they have at my school. Who else shows up but Army Girl! (This wasn't planned or anything, it just happened.)

At the time, I was working on the theory that she was a man eater, since she was blatantly hitting on me all of the time. I didn't want to ask her out because:
A) She had a boyfriend
B) I was busy with Alt Girl
C) She crazy

Later in the semester, she really wanted to play pool with me. Not knowing better at the time, I agreed. She blew me off. Twice. I promptly cut off all contact and wanted it to stay that way.


For that reason, seeing her there at SCE was incredibly awkward. So, I just played it cool and didn't say anything to her or get into her field of view (kinda obvious I'm avoiding her). While doing this, I was talking quite loudly with Transit Kid. How she didn't recognize my voice is beyond me.

I saw her one other time today: when I was heading toward class, I was right behind her. Not wanting to talk to her, I doubled back and went to a different bathroom than I wanted to.

Now, the freaky part.

Accoring to Skeety, she accosted him and asked him where I, his "partner in crime", was. Apparently, her desire to know was so strong she ditched her friends to go talk to him. The funny thing is, she knows my phone number and is still friends with him on facebook, so she knows how to get in touch with me.

I have no idea what I'm going to do about her, if anything. I hope to keep avoiding her until she finally snaps and really tries seeking me out.

The rest of the day wasn't that odd. Most of my classes seem to be blow offs and English seems to have epic potential.

Oh well, that's it for now.
