Second Sight

Jen: The second time I saw Ryan was in our weightlifting class during Spring term. I had actually already taken this same course during Fall Semester, but a few of my classes were cancelled after the term had already started. I was extremely frustrated, and I knew that I needed to add more classes to achieve the minimal amount of credits. It was difficult to find any available classes at this point, but finally my awesome roommate, Mari, and I found an opening so we signed up for the weightlifting class together.

This second time that I saw Ry, I did not recognize him, but again I remember thinking that he was really cute. The thing that was really attractive to me was that he was very kind and outgoing towards everyone in our class. We didn’t talk too much in class, but one day after weightlifting, I sat outside by the gym to finish studying for a test. He came up and we started talking, and then he asked if he could sit down by me. The two main things I remember from the conversation were that he told me his first name and that he also liked to play soccer. Admit: I wanted to look him up on Facebook, but I didn’t know his last name. I told my roommate that night that my goal was to figure out his full name the next day in class.

He didn’t show up to class the next day. My roommate and I had already signed the roll, but she went back and took a peek for Ryan’s last name. I added him on Facebook.

Ry: There was a beautiful girl in my weightlifting class. That’s what I remember. I would always say hello even after a failed flirting attempt: I went to say hi to Jen and a friend of hers and was completely shot to pieces by her friend. Whoa..... Anyways, I saw her again one day after class and made sure to talk to her. I think I was just standing there talking to her for 10 - 15 minutes before I finally asked if I could sit down.
