The secret is to ask people who are interesting and are in classes with you out to dinner at about 5 (ie after the 4 o'clock class ends). Nothing fancy -- just ``I'm hungry; want to go to a chinese restaurant I know about?'' does it. remember to bring enough cash to pay for dinner in case the person you want to eat dinner with is broke. Pick a good restaurant. that way, if the person you ask out turns out to drive you up the wall you will at least have a good meal out of it. (A good restaurant means one that you can enjoy eating in. For me that means the food is good and I could care less about the decore. Pick one where you are comfortable.) It is easy. It works. If you are going to U of Toronto then I know for a fact that teh residence food tastes like warmed over shoe leather and kills flies at 40 paces, so you don't want to eat there anyway. -- Laura Creighton (note new address!) sun!l5!laura (that is ell-five, not fifteen) l5!laura@lll-crg.arpa Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
