Boy Diet...yeah.

This is harder than I thought.

Honestly, there are SO MANY BOYS HERE. I'm not used to being surrounded by...well, people who don't suck, to be completely honest. My hometown is full of rotten eggs. I now live in a flower bed. What am I supposed to do??

It is hard. I've made some different guy friends that have definite potential to be something...but then I remind myself of the diet. Plus, my friend made a good point the other day. Most guys come to college having either just gotten out of relationships (cough cough Bob), are still in relationships, or don't want to be in relationships because they're experiencing the same shock I am (aka being surrounded by beauty in the opposite sex). But then again, that really only applies to freshman and possibly sophomores, and one of the guys is a junior and he's super nice and I go to church with him which makes it even better...

STOP, OLIVIA. Goodness. I'm really bad at this.

After Bob turned out to be someone I never expected him of all people to be, I was really starting to lose faith in the male species (yes, species). But I've gotten to know one of the guys in a few of my classes and he's such an amazing person. He's head over heels in love with his girlfriend back home, so I'm not interested in him or anything (although my cousin Madison said "girlfriends are speed bumps, not roadblocks" and my suite mate Kenzie said "just because there's a goalie doesn't mean you can't score"...such good influences). But anyway, and when I make this list I want you all to understand that I honestly don't have feelings for him I'm literally just describing him, he's so freaking sweet and a lot of fun to be around and really smart. He's sensitive and he just absolutely lights up when he talks about his girlfriend. And he's attractive! He's the kind of guy every girl hopes every guy really is deep down inside. And just knowing that guys like him exist renews my hope in the whole species. There are guys like that out there. And while knowing this can be a good thing, but at the same time now I want every guy to be like him. Soooo I don't know how to handle myself at this point.

Anyway, I got a B on my second oceanography exam! Studying pays off. Its a low B, which was disappointing, but (and this is going to sound really awful...because it is really awful) Kenzie did worse than me and that made me feel a little better...I felt really bad for her because I know how disappointing her grade can be (she made the exact same grade I made on the first test), but at the same time I felt really bad last time when she did better than me and I get SUPER competitive, especially about grades...I know, I'm a horrible person! Anyway. I did okay. And after extra credit, I'll have an A! Excitement.

I also registered for classes today! There's one day that I'll have to wake up for an eight-o-clock class, which is Wednesday. On Tuesday and Thursday, I don't have class until eleven. On Monday and Friday, I don't have class until noon. WHO'S EXCITED. I'M EXCITED. I'm so sick of waking up super freaking early every day. Then I only have one day where I'll have class late, and that's Thursday because of a lab from 3:30 to 6:20. That's the latest. Other than that its 1:50 on MWF and 3:15 on TR. I'm really happy with my schedule. The only thing I was disappointed about was the fact that the improv class, the ONE class that I was STOKED to take next semester, was full and at the exact same time I signed up for bio. So I couldn't even have the professor override the capacity either. Disappointing, but I can just take that class next year.

Okay, this has been a long post. I'm going to shower and go to bed now. Goodnight, lovelies!
