Congrats! Many of us got a bid to a sorority! Bring on the t-shirts, my Big, and sorority events! After being in a sorority for about two weeks, we received our schedule of events for the next few weeks. I immediately started brainstorming the perfect 1950s get-up for our first date function until I saw the date: just weeks away. Screech! Hold the phone! How do I find a date?! I mean, I have some guy friends but not a ton and I’ve never asked a guy to a dance before so there’s that. Outfit designing will have to take a back seat until I figure out who is worthy of attending this date function with moi. Let the scoping begin:

Candidate #1: the best guy friend
There’s a weird line between being friends and asking him to a date function. Yes, it can be under the guise of “…just as friends” but is this going to change your relationship? Yes, we did hookup twice in the beginning of last semester. I’m banking on him accepting my invitation because let’s be real, we are great friends (best friends on snap chat to prove it!) and have chemistry so I’m confident we would have a blast together. He has a problem with commitment so there’s that reliability factor…
Candidate #2: The FYS partner
He’s cute. Like very attractive. I talked to him for the first time today when we were paired up in class. In my head, I was all “Yes!” because earlier in that class period I was planning out how to talk to him. He’s kind of quiet and seems smart. I just don’t know if he was tired today or just doesn’t do “the social” AKA talk. So, he’s a maybe.
Candidate #3: The Calc boy
Beautiful boy. That was how I referred to him until I garnered up the courage (and a perfect hair day) to introduce myself. I spent the whole class trying to come up with a pick up line to talk to him: “Hey, did we have class together last semester?” You see, I know we didn’t but he doesn’t have to know that… yet. “I’m not sure… which one?” “Bio?” “113?” Oh shit he did take a bio class! That’s awkward… “Oh, I was in 101. Maybe somewhere else. I’m Haleigh.”  He had caramel skin, geek-chic glasses (which have the power of making my heart swoon), and, after some brief Facebook stalking… a girlfriend. Damn! Not a good idea to hit on him anymore…

Candidate #4: Education Guy (my major)
I briefly talked to him but what makes him really attractive is that he wants to be teacher. Sigh. We have so much in common already! So he sits in the back of the class and me in the front so… this is going to take some strategizing. Casually, slowly packing up my backpack after class this week to have a short conversation with him. Ask for his number in case one of us misses class? Text him “hi” and eventually an invite text?
Alright boys, show me what you’ve got. Collegiettes, which one of these guys should be my date? Let me know, time is ticking…
