This story is from my first year of grad school. I noticed one girl seemed to be in a lot of my classes and I thought she was really cute. Well, if I’m going to be spending hours a day with this person, I might as well get to know her. One of the early days of the semester, I sat down next to her and introduced myself, “Hey, I’ve seen you in a few of my classes, I’m Jake.” She smiled at me, “I’m Phoebe, nice to meet you Jake.” Let me reiterate, Phoebe was fucking cute.
