I bet Joe sat down at his computer once he got to college and thought, "Hmmm, how can I wreck havoc on Julia's life. Oh I know! I'll ask her about her facebook status." And what was my facebook status at the time? Try "Julia is moping over the opposite sex." And what opposite sex was she referring to? Why Joe, of course. Gah. It wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't get really flustered. I spent nearly two minutes trying to figure out how to answer him (part of that time was spent saying a loud, "Whaddo I say? Whaddo I say? Daniel Day Lewis, what the fuck do I say???" DDL's picture is on my wall, just FYI). Our conversation went like this:
Joe: what's your status about?
Julia: Nothing really. Just thinking about a guy.
Joe: a bummer, apparently?
Julia: Meh, it's more me. I can't bring up the courage to tell him I like him.
Joe: It's no big deal. you'll get there
Julia: yeah, i suppose
Joe: you haven't even had your frosh year yet.. so there are many fish in the sea
Julia: very true
Joe: and you'll get the chance to express yourself, often after a drink or two, many times this year
Julia: haha. thanks
:P
I want to tell him, I really do. But I'm too old to be telling him that I like him through an IM. So I guess I have to wait till next summer when we work at the JCC again. The only other option I can think of is skype, since his facebook says he has it. Too bad I'm still too much of a chicken to tell him. Maybe I'll just wait until next summer, go to a staff party, pretend to be drunk (because I wouldn't actually get drunk for this, since then I'd definitely screw it up), and tell him... This is driving me crazy. It really is. Ever since he left he's been the only thing on my mind... Well, him and Doctor Who, but still. He's the first crush in a long time that hasn't made me cry, which is good, I suppose. And ever since he's stopped working we've been talking over facebook, and while we did talk at work we're talking even more than we used to.
Stupid, hectic, loveless life of mine...
Oh, on another note, Joe did give me some really good advice about freshman year:
"Be willing to go beyond your comfort zone, but don't let yourself be bullied or peer pressured into anything that you have a strong aversion to i.e. be assertive. Especially with guys, if necessary, but take any opportunity. College is about exploration, or at least for the first year or so. Do new stuff with an open mind. Challenge your opinions about issues, stay up late debating philosophical topics, stuff like that."
*le sigh*

Other random things of the day =
David, Shanna, and I spent pick up harmonizing together for the song "Fall For You". It was actually really pretty.
I taught David the hand game Down By the Banks.
It was Gabe's last day of camp. He's such a good kid, I'm gonna miss him.
Becca ended showing up, so I didn't need to get there at 7:00 to fill in for her. I ended up cleaning out some of the rooms with Hannah for two hours, which was fine... sort of.
I watched two episodes of
Freaks and Geeks. My OTP finally kissed. I'm bummed that one of them isn't happy about it though. Stupid Lindsey!
Friday's dress up day is Superhero themed. I want to get an idea of what the other counselors are coming as. If some of them are going to go all out, than I think I'll come as Gambit. However, if they're not all too serious, I'll just end up going as either Spiderman or Doctor Horrible.
