Boy Form

Today was my second to last day at my current job. It made me a little sad, which intensified as throughout the day people came up to me saying, "you're leaving!" and then making a sad face, which I had to return with a sad face. I don't mind making these sad faces because when I go home, I try to go to sleep and I can't because I'm so excited about my new job.

Another significant thing that happened was that I think I found me in boy form. Girls always say that whenever they meet a boy they think they have SO MUCH IN COMMON WITH, which makes me reluctant to declare that. Usually girls say that when they just want to be like a boy they meet. But this is not the case in this case! I am pretty sure this was me in boy form. Mainly because I have had the following exchange before but in reversed roles. Here's what happened with my new foreign friend Paolo:

Me: You look intellectual today
Paolo: Unlike usual?
Me: Yeah, usually you look pretty dumb
Paolo: That's all part of my plan
Me: Your plan is to look dumb?
Paolo: Yeah. That way they don't suspect me when I steal their wallet.
Me: Paolo, we're the same.
Paolo: What?

Maybe we should not tell Paolo that I am him (I am he?) in girl form. I just don't know how he would take it.
