elidelioI have decided to make a collection for these mini ChinesePod lessons because I've really been enjoying them! They crack me up, and the vocab is fairly easy too.

Vocab:
談戀愛 | tánliàn'ài | to date
書呆子 | shūdāizi | bookworm, nerd (lit. bookish fool)
浪漫 | làngmàn | romantic
Things to note:
男生/女生 usually refers to younger people (who are still studying) as opposed to 男人/女人 which is more for adults.
Thoughts:
First diary entry, and oh the love triangle set up! Quite easy to understand, the word 書呆子 is very fun to me I can't believe I hadn't come across it before.
Some great grammar bits to keep in mind such as 都 to emphasise everything/one/time (每個人都 all of everyone, 每天都 every day always) and 都不 to denote nothing/not at all (什麽都不知道 doesn't know anything, 一點兒都不浪漫 not romantic in the slightest).

第一部：楊潔的日記 《每個人都在談戀愛》🔊鏈接
大學裡每個人都在談戀愛。但是我們班的男生太丑了，都是書呆子。
特別是王偉。除了讀書，什麽都不知道。
不過李燕好像很喜歡他，每天都和他一起吃飯，看書。
我覺得這樣太無聊了，一點兒都不浪漫。
