Almost there... 3 1/2 days to go

Having a clueless moment here, what are you free from, school for a week over Christmas? I guess the kids get two weeks but the teachers don't?

Watched another of my Christmastime movies, "Bell, Book and Candle", with Kim Novak and Jimmy Stewart. My favorite quote is. "You just never learned to spell".

Edit:
Now I am watching "World of Suzie Wong". Same director, but is a more serious film. Can't help seeing the simiarities with the other film, a woman manipulating her man. Oh to be manipulated be either Ms. Novak or Ms. Kwan.

3 more days ( during which we will all be enjoying final exams) and then it's break for 18 days:)
Can't wait to be home:)

Mine is snuggling on the couch with my husband ( NVGhostrider ) and son and drinking cocoa:)and watching Firefly!!


Aw man have you tried peppermint mochas? They are the best for this cold weather and coffee places only sell them around this time of year.

Anyways. That's my new favorite thing for cold weather.

Incidentally hello you all! I haven't been on this site in ages. And I'm afraid I can't exactly remember how frequently I posted when I used to come here all the dang time. I remember reading the things here a lot though.

Happy New Year ponderers!

Hope everyone had some time off to recharge.


To kick us off with a discussion, here's an idea I'm bouncing around in my head. So, there's a really cute girl at church that I'm interested in asking out. However, church seems like a next to impossible place to strike up a conversation. For weeks now I've made zero progress. So, here's the idea I came up with. After church I would walk up to her and go "Excuse me. I'm wondering if you'd be willing to help me out with something. For a few weeks no I've been trying to think of a way to strike up a conversation with a girl at church. I'm really at a loss. I thought maybe I could use a woman's point of view. Do you have any ideas for me?" I figure if she doesn't completely shoot me down the easy follow up is "Maybe we could go discuss it over coffee or something".

So, too corny?

Do you see her in regular church or in a class? If you see her in a class then it would be easier. Try sitting next to her and trying to talk about normal stuff, like how was her New Year's, tell her how yours was, introduce yourself. Keep sitting near her, that should be a hint that you like her, mixed with saying hi each time and making small talk, then ask her in a few weeks if she'd like to have coffee. I would advise against that tactic you mentioned because as a woman it seems odd. If she got it right away, got what you were trying to do then it would actually be kind of cute, but if she didn't get it and actually thought you were looking for her advice then it would get weird and she'd feel weird that the girl was _her. Just my opinion as a woman.

It's actual church. So, there's not much opportunity to talk. There's a brief window before mass where it's still kinda rude to be talking and then after mass. People pretty much don't talk to anybody they don't know. So, it would kinda be weird to just walk up to her and try to start a casual conversation of any kind.
