I love taking long walks. I just got back in from like, a two hour walk around campus with Mike. And the great thing was, we actually talked. He talked to me, I talked to him, and he actually listened to me. That's hard to find in anyone, someone who actually listens and responds. We ended up talking about just about everything. The subject went from Caroline to different parts of my life to my sexuality and his drinking, and things like that.
It was the most worthwhile thing I've done while being on campus. Paul plans to take one with me sometime next week. I'm kind of excited, and kind of not.
Oh. Speaking of Paul, I have to point this out. Towards the end of our little walk around campus, Mike pointed out something to me. He goes, "So I have something I want to tell you, but I don't think I should." I told him to just go ahead and say it, and he argued and said that it was too negative. To that, I shrugged my shoulders and told him to just tell me.
He told me something along the lines of how me and Paul would be a perfect couple, because we're so alike in ways that we don't drink or have sex or do drugs, and we're really devoted to music and a ton of other things that I can't even remember... And it made me think. Because I'm trying to stop liking him. And I seriously hope that he doesn't read my blog, because I might punch a baby if he found out that I like him. Mike even told me that Paul usually doesn't stay friends with a girl when he founds out that she likes him, whether he's taken or not.
I guess I have to be more careful what I put in here, then? Either that, or I have to stop posting my URL in my status on AIM all the time.
Anyway.
I've decided that walks are incredible. It's amazing what taking a walk at night when everything cools down can do. I've felt sick all day, and I went on this walk with Mike, and I suddenly felt so much better. It was almost unfair. Like, why hadn't I thought about that before? But that wasn't the only reason that this walk was the best thing I've done lately. Mike and I talked about a lot of things, and I told him some things that I haven't even told Nils. It's crazy.
Cliche says that I'm going to be best friends with these people for the rest of my life. <3
