Mexican Post

I have some dates to report on! I met a guy on Friday at the Mexican Post in Center City. It was definitely a successful date!!

The guy who we will call Med Student is, in fact, a 2nd year med student at Drexel and lives in East Falls. His mom is from Argentina, and his dad is from Cashmere. (Or maybe it's the other way.) We met for happy hour and ended up having dinner.... for 3 hours!! We talked about all sorts of things, including his experiences in med school, my school experiences, kids who take too much medicine, traveling, tequila, places for good beer in the city ... There were not awkward pauses at all, 3 hours of free flowing conversation. We didn't even get into typical first date questions, didn't need to. He is talkative, outgoing, cute, tall, smart (went to Cornell for engineering as undergrad but not awkward academia), passionate about what he does, genuine.... a really nice guy.

He told me at the end of the evening that he had a really good time, that he really wants to get to know me more, etc. He also said that he is very busy with exams the next two weeks, but that he would love to get together in 2 Fridays, and he asked if I did karaoke. haha. I have only ever done karoake in college and in Honduras. He gave me a kiss goodbye, and he ran off (literally) to try to catch the Drexel shuttle back to East Falls.

I look forward to going out with him again and getting to know him a little better. It was really nice to meet him, so hopefully in 2 weeks we will get together again!
