I’m going out on a date on Thursday.
This is the first time I’ve ever gone out on a date. Really. I was homeschooled through high school, then commuted every day to college. I’ve had a few crushes, but nobody I’ve wanted to pursue.

So have fun, relax, and good luck! |
| Gret | Congradulations, enjoy Thursday. |
| Alice | I think you’ll do great. |
| Nik | Just be yourself, and if it goes well then that’s great, if it goes bad then at least try to be friendly and above all just be yourself. |
