DAVID IS...
Buff

really bad at English, but somehow got better grades in the class then I did...

One of those people who clearly don't have a strong subject, he was definitely one of those kids who liked gym the best
Literally loves food, but only eats chicken and potatoes
Can be intimidating if you aren't already friends with him
Sometimes awkward
HE WANTS TO BE A PROFESSIONAL BODY BUILDER
So David had lived in our hall all year, but we had always just known of him, and knew he was the one who chose to cook every night instead of eating on campus. Well, second semester I ended up in his English class. One day we were in the computer lab, and I awkwardly had some eye contact with him, I texted Piper and Ellie...That conversation went like this:
Me: We're in the computer lab and I just had literally the most awoke taco eye contact with David. Like, literally super awkward.
Piper: Lol
Me: We looked at each other of at leash 5 seconds. That is way too long for eye contact
Piper: eye sex?
Me: No, it wasn't eye sex, ok maybe like 3 seconds now that you mention it.
Then Ellie sent a really great poster about STDs from the health clinic, but that doesn't have anything to do with the story...
Me: No, but it was really awkward cause HIS BACK IS TO ME and I look over at my teacher talking to someone else, and aHE WAS LOOKING IN MY DIRECTION
Piper: HE IS PRETTY THOUGH. I SHIP MAVID.
Ellie: omg I love that MAVID ALL THE WAY
Me: NO DO NOT SHIP. THERE WILL BE NO SHIPPING OF ANY KIND, TO ANYWHERE
Piper: BUT HIS ABS MEREDITH. I COULD GRATE CHEESE ON THOSE.
It went on for a little longer but thats basically the parts that matter. So anyway, I had made it my mission to become friends with David, because he was in my class and I just decided it was my mission. To be honest, I didn't think this challenge would actually be completed and successful. Anyway, there was one night where we act an RHA event and David is in RHA. Well, he actually ended up hanging out at our table and talking to us. Well, it was more like making fun of me and the fact that I came late to class everyday (I had an 8am, 9am, 10 am and 11am on Monday, Wednesday Fridays. My 8am was across campus from my 9am). Anyway, the next day in our English class, he was sitting next to me. It used to be an empty desk in between us, but that day, HE WAS AT THE EMPTY DESK.
NORMAL DAY:
DAY AFTER DAVID AND STARTED TALKING:
When I started talking about David, it was just a friend thing, and it was jut my goal to be my friend. When Piper and Ellie started "shipping" us, I liked the idea of someone talking about me and someone attractive dating. Yes, we all knew it wasn't going to happen, but it sounded good just imagining it, and having someone imagining it too. So, I basically started liking him because everyone else started to make me like him. It took me a little while, until i realized I didn't like him. There were a few times that I really thought about how it wasn't fun liking him and having a crush....
~When he talked about working out
~When he continued to talk about working out
~When you couldn't change the subject about working out
~When he made us leave dinner early because he needed to cook
~When he has to leave to eat his eggs, because he is on a very strict schedule
~When he talked about how his brain "overheats" when it gets too loud in a room
~When he used us for things he needed
And then, I finally decided, it was so much easier not having a crush. Boys are stupid. And, that is why I am happy, not dealing with stupid boys.
Love,
Meredith
