La-la-la I'm in love with a four-eyed girl.
Academic Girl
-- Rhett Miller
If you want to date the Academic Girl, it's time to hit the books, or at least hit the bookstore. This is the girl you never met in college because you never spent an evening in the Rare Books Room. Or, if you did, you were too busy reading rare books.
Actually, the Academic Girl has never really left the university, not because she's still chugging margaritas (see The Party Girl) or wearing her college colors (see The Girl Next Door), but because the Academic Girl is a lifelong learner, eternally seeking knowledge and culture and the answers to the Big Questions. This is the Girl whose favorite date is a lecture, whose cat is named Plato, and whose favorite love note is a footnote.
She Might Be an Academic Girl if:
1. She drives: a Volvo, a Saab, or a Toyota.
2. She can talk for more than ten minutes about: her thesis.
3. She begins her sentences with: "Noam Chomsky says . . ."
4. She'd never: read Cosmo.
5. She owns any of the following: an Oxford English Dictionary, any book written in a "dead" language (Greek, Latin, Aramaic, etc.), a lifetime membership to Mensa.
