desperate times call for desperate measures.. i guess

I am still thinking about my physical science lab today. The opposite sex at BYU hit a new all time low today. I worry that someone reading my blog might read and think, "now that is a great idea." let me tell you right now.. its not. not at all. do not do what i am about to tell you. it is just a little creepy and over the top. I guess it did catch some attention though...

We are sitting in our lab, and i am sitting behind this girl.. lets call her Jenna, we are in the back of the room close to the door. In walks a guy.. i didn't get a good look at him, and he reaches past me and puts something on Jenna's desk. and leaves quickly. Jenna turns to get a good look at him and doesn't see what he looks like either.

What did he put on her desk? A cell phone. I asked her if it was hers.. and she was like "no, i have never seen this phone before in my life" and then i asked her if she knew him and she didn't but she also didn't get a good look at him. Well soon the phone starts buzzing.. and gets a new text message.. and then another and another. we were trying to figure out who's phone it was so she opens it and the text message opens when she does and it says something like, "hello please read this!" and this guy starts texting her! He starts telling her how he thinks she's a total babe and he watched her walk into the room. And i start freaking out WITH HER! He was texting her from his friends phone and we had his friends name so we looked him up on facebook.. not cute. she asked him what his name was and he told her and so we tried to find him on facebook.. but couldn't. and he asked her if she wanted his name for a restraining order. WEIRD RIGHT?? well he keeps texting her and she stops texting him back. We both decided that any guy that does that is not a guy that we want to be potentially dating.

but we soon realize that she is going to HAVE to see him to give him his phone back.. i am sure that he had already thought of that. we thought of just leaving the phone there, but guilt got the best of jenna. And curiousity. So class ends, and she asked me to stay with her.. which i gladly did, and we try to call this guys friend.. and THE PHONE DIES. we keep trying and the phone would ring 2 times and then die. she didn't want him to have her number, but eventually she had to call him from her phone. When she got a hold of him he asked her if she was weirded out.. she lied and said that she just thought it was 'interesting' that "nothing like that has ever happened before'. he was so glad that it didn't scare her off and was glad to finally learn her name (creepy) and told her that he saw her walk by and new he only had one chance and he needed to take advantage of it etc etc etc. Well i had to get to class and she was meeting up with another girlfriend and then was going to give this character his phone back. she will update me as soon as we see each other again. i will update this as soon as i get the info

that is where my story ends. who knows... maybe he was some dream boat. but we couldnt' find him on facebook.. who doesn't have facebook??? hahah.. but really, she was creeped out and i was and he wasn't even trying to talk to me.

the thing is.. something like that would ONLY happen at byu.

I wonder about a fellow who can't figure out a better way to met a girl. I call it weird too. Hes lucky Jenna didn't leave the phone where he left it. Maybe he is shy or not so good looking-- can't wait for the update You have to admit -its a new approach--but a crazy one. Grandmabashi.

That's special!
haha
I can just imagine him running in and putting the phone on the desk and running out really quickly! I bet he didn't think about that.

And I love the pun in the title!

GOOD ONE!

It's a good thing you're with security! It's like a soap opera now and I hope you have something new to report soon... don't keep us on hold for too long.

It's creative but for an initial approach?...too scary. You just can't make up material like this, who would have thought we would be reading this on your blog? I'm waiting for a happy ending...

Okay, from a Mom's point of view...that is a little scary. I am sure glad he wasn't after you.
Please keep us posted..and be careful...there are weird people out there.

We love you and don't want anything bad to happen to you or your friend.

I've lost so many cell phones this way.....Just kidding.

Time to get Security Guard Alana on the case.

KandyJill said...

Freakkkkk -- that's exactly what he is! Haha I cannot believe that. Make sure you post the outcome. That is absolutely bizarre as Cindy would say!

but......if he got INTO BYU, he can't be all that bad! He must reeeeeeeeeeally like your lab partner!

Maybe it was a 'frosh type thing' and he was forced to do it...but wait- it's already the end of October!

Like you said, DESPERATE!

I agree that this was a strange and most definantly weird! But I also only have class with 4 guys and their randomly spread through all of my classes! I have to give it up for his guts though!
