I suck...

So for some of you who might actually be reading this you are probably thinking... what happened? Where did all the men go? What's going on BECCA?!?!

I suck. That's really what it comes down to. I lamed out after coming back from St. Louis and am now in Seattle so am once again using that as an excuse to not go out and about.

However, I might have actually met some nice boy tonight. Got into Seattle around 8:00 and took the light rail into town where my old friend Samantha picked me up and took me to meet up with her boyfriend and his room mate. Room mate was very cute and we flirted. Might be seeing him again Saturday night for Sam's boyfriend's b-day. He told me I should go. I'm counting it because I'm lame and like 8 people behind.

Oh and day 9 and me are having coffee next Sunday, hollah!

Liquid Confidence

Alright. So up to this point I've been kind of picky. I've been waiting to find someone that I kind of like AND that I think might say yes. I was 6 people behind as of last night, so things are going to change.

I worked on this last night. Friends and I went out and had a little bit o liquid courage. Unfortunately there was almost no one out last night. It was dead. But I still asked out two guys, gave one my number- don't think he'll call but oh well.

2 in one day! Getting caught up!

Underager?

Hmmm. So I'm keeping up! Yes! Last night went out in uptown with some friends and Sasha brought her boyfriend and his room-mate. We chatted a little, somewhat flirty on my side, and I was going to give him my number but was being too much of a wuss so I gave it to Sasha instead- but I'm still counting it, even though it was sort of lame.

However, tonight, I got back on the train. Went to Memory Lanes and asked out one of the workers, gave him my number. But after I did it I looked at him and he looks like he's about 15. (Not literally, but the point is the boy looks young)

Oh well! Day 16 a success! (he said yes)

Also am leaving for St. Louis for a couple days, so I won't be able to ask anyone out. Which means, I'll be even further behind when I get back! Ah! That means I'll just have to start asking people out like mad, MAD I TELL YOU!

This is so HARD!

So ended up asking out an acquaintance over facebook last night. Majorly cheating, I know, but I had to. This is so much harder than I thought it was going to be!

I was out and about tons yesterday too, and I just didn't see anyone who was my age, straight and single! The is getting to be too much.

Its Monday which means day 2 is making me dinner tonight and we're gonna watch some Dr. Who. Otherwise, I still need to find one person to ask out. I don't know if I'm gonna make the 100 days. This is stressful and exhausting!

But anyhoo. Weekly update:

Days: 15 (but day 15 isn't over yet)

Men asked: 12

Yeses: 3

Dates went on: 1

Repeat Offenders: 1

Saturday Night

So. Drinking. Alcohol. Intoxication.

Not as much as a help as I was hoping it would be. It is amazing to me how hard this asking people out thing is! The problem with asking someone out at a bar is that a) it is so loud that it makes me impossible to actually talk to the guy b) everyone is out to find someone so it makes it more stressful because it makes rejection all the more likely, they went out that night looking for something specific and I may or may not fit into that category. and c) competition. Everyone is looking for someone to buy them drinks, flirt with and a lot of them are prettier, skinnier and skankier than me.

So as you can probably guess from my long list of reasons, I only asked out one guy last night and before we could really do the whole thing my friend Rose came over and started chatting with him, not realizing that she was "messing with my game", so to speak. But I still count it cause I did put myself out there.

So semi win for the night, even though my goal was to get like three or four guys knocked off the list. Maybe today will be more lucrative.

Oh dear.

So last night was Michelle's birthday party. This seemingly is the perfect opportunity to ask people out because I was quite drunk.

Once again, fail. No one. I didn't even think about it really. So another day unfulfilled. It's so HARD! Arg. I just don't think I've gotten over the fear of rejection yet. Then again, it has only been 11 days, so that is to be expected, but today, at the Law school I was having a very good conversation with a boy whom I work with and a somewhat of a report with and I couldn't do it.

I just don't understand how you work that into a conversation! It is so AWKWARD! I mean, it is easier to ask out a complete stranger, whom you have had no interaction with because it's literally just saying, "Would you like to go on a date?" Which leads to the inevitable no- I mean who goes out with someone before even talking to them? So is asking out a complete stranger even really a risk? I'm just setting myself up for failure so I don't have to actually worry whether he will say yes or no.

But on a lighter note, Day 4 and I have made tentative coffee plans, as have Day 9 and I. And Day 2 is making me dinner on Monday. So in 11 days I've gotten three yeses and one repeat date. Not bad at all.

So catching up is again in the cards. I think I will try to ask out three guys today. Maybe I'll finally ask the Coop cheese guy out. Probably not though.

Wednesday

Wednesdays seem to get done early! I asked the cute guy in my bio class (pre-med- HOT) if he wanted to "hang out" over spring break, kind of a cop out, since that's not specifically asking for a date, but since it was 10 in the morning, I'm allowing it.

ALSO got a text back about coffee from Mr. Day 9, so we have tentative plans to get together after spring break. WHICH IS ONLY TWO DAYS AWAY!!!!!

Finally. I need to get school out of my system like a brain fever (Its early I know that metaphor made no sense)

Righto. Spring break, will be full of going out to bars and asking many men out. Maybe I'll even get ahead in my count...
