That a hero'll come and save us all,
As we call the ones we left below,
We all dream of the day we rise above

Good god, that was a great night. Dawkins was amazing, talking about his new book, The Magic of Reality. Couldn't afford it, unfortunately, but my Ethics teacher is going to let me borrow her book to read! He even has an app (which I don't think I can get) that features the book, and several games, like trying to put cannon-balls in orbit. I'm definitely going to get his books. Overall it was a fantastic night, but not why you think.
The girl I like was there and we spent so much time relatively alone and I, like an idiot, failed to ask her out, even though I was getting multiple perfect opportunities to do it. And then she walked away to go home and I, again like an idiot, didn't chase after her. I'd told one of my friends that I liked her and he knew everything that I was going through and then I just came out and told the rest of the group and the four of us just decided to drink (Note: drink, not get drunk).
They stopped to get some Bud and I walked on to see if maybe I could catch up to her and finally ask her out. Unfortunately, she wasn't there, so I stood at the bridge, staring at the water for a while, thinking of how stupid I was. Met my friends half-way back up to the shop. Turns out, the person buying it had been refused because she and the fourth helped carry it. So, further on, next shop. She went in to grab the stuff, and the rest of us 4 carried on walking for a bit so it wouldn't look like she was buying it. Blah blah blah, got Carling, went down by the river to drink it. This is when I realised just how amazing my friends are and how lucky I am. We were all totally open about absolutely everything (love, friends, sex, putting your life on the line for a friend) and it was honestly amazing. I have sincerely never felt so great in my entire life. And hopefully, we're doing it again tomorrow and Saturday 
And maybe, after the week break, I'll finally ask her out. And the bonus is that my best friend actually thinks that she likes me too. I think I finally have a chance and I feel so great.
BTW, not even tipsy, and I had 3 cans. So don't expect a "hay i'm durnk" thread.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, gave a load of spare change to a homeless guy, felt great
