Date # 4 - Med Head

Last night was probably the most interesting date I had so far. The night itself turned out to be pretty random.

I made contact with Med Head online a couple of weeks ago. All I knew was that she had a sense of humor, was half Jewish/half Greek from Manhattan and was in My City studying Med School.

We had arranged to meet at a street corner at 8pm. As I approached the corner, I had to wait across the street for the light to turn green. I noticed a cute girl waiting all by herself and wondered if that was her. After a while I decided to play a little joke and call her on my cell but just as i was looking for her number, my phone was ringing and it was her! I look up and the person across the street is on the phone, so that was Med Head.

I have to say Med Head is really pretty. Definitely the prettiest of the girls I talked about on this site.

So we started to walk and talk. Things started off ok. I may have been taking a bit too much, but that's a problem I have in general. The only bad (and kind of gross thing) was that I haven't been feeling too hot the past couple of days and while we were walking, my stomach was a bit... upset. Thank god we were outside, but I'm afraid she might think I.... smell. Hopefully there was a breeze or something pushing away from us.

Anyways, there is a festival in town this week and every year where they sell tickets, is a beer tent that's really cheap and a band or something playing at night. We bought beer (awkwardly; the bartender didn't know who to give the money to, we both didn't know who was paying, or what)., found a bench and sat and chatted for a while.

While chatting I saw Trucker, RM1's boyfriend walk by. Turns out he was there looking for RM1. He turns to us and awkwardly asks if we're on a date. to which I hesitate and she simply says "yeah, sort of...".

We continued chatting and I know I was enjoying it but I don't know if she was. She laughed a bit at my jokes but she didn't seem so into me. then again, we just met right?

I'm not sure what her deal is because basically she has to study all summer for mes school but I think she just wanted to meet new people outside of the med circle (all her friends are from her classes, she told me).

After about an hour and a half, she said she had to go study. Again, I made things a tad awkward by walking with her for several blocks towards her house which was in the complete opposite direction to where I live, and she knew that. I apologized if I was coming off creepy, but she said it was ok.

Then as we approached the street we started at, the bus to take me back to the beer tent was coming. I quickly said goodbye and ran towards the bus. In my stride, I told her I had fun and that we should do something again, to which she simply replied something like "ya ok".

I'm not sure if she'd want to meet up again but to find out I deliberately told her earlier in the night about a website that picked her interest. So, when I got home, I had an excuse to e-mail her. I sent her the link, an apology for running off to abruptly and also mentioned that if she ever need a break from Med School, she could always give me call since I'll be around all summer. She mentioned earlier how she once dressed up as a goth person for halloween, so I joked in the message that we could dress up as goths and roam the streets scaring people

So, she was off and i was on a bus headed back to the beer tent. This is when the night got interesting.

I get off the bus, go to the beer tent and bump into RM1. Her boyfriend is nowhere to be seen. Turns out he just missed her and walked home, which was where I had left Med Head! This is about 10 blocks away from the beer tent which is the opposite direction from where I live.

RM1 asked if I wanted to walk with her. Since the weather was so nice, I accepted and we walked. We decide, while walking, to stop for ice cream. At the ice cream place, I bumped into this guy I know, JJ.

JJ was off to this preview show for the festival. Basically, each act in the festival had a 3 minute windo to to showcase their show for later in the week. It's totally not whre I expeted at the end of the night, and it was definitely a lot of fun.

Overall, regardless if the date went well or not, I had a good time.
