First: My drive to see Mr. Leather. I was doing alright in my car, windows down, music playing, until I came up on the "Valley Forge Road" exit. When I was that I got really nervous, butterflies in my stomach, everything, because as soon as I saw that sign I knew I was really close. I pulled onto Eagle Road, then made a left at the second entrance. Parked my car and called Michael. I was here.
Second: I began walking towards his dorm and only seconds later I saw this guy walking towards me. I knew exactly who it was and I couldn't help but stop and say to myself, "This is really happening. I can't believe it". I was so incredible happy to see him, and hug him. It had been a few weeks since we had seen each. I was so happy : ]
Third: After talking a few minutes we started walking to the town of Wayne where we got a bite to eat at Cosi (Which was my first time going there), I learned about the game 'Spot' (You yell "SPOT" when you see a yellow car), oh and that Michael doesn't like tacos ( I know! What the heck right?!) Haha, its amazing how much you can learn in so little time. But we walked around Wayne for a little while. Wayne is extremely beautiful and has a nice little town with plenty of shops and all. It was really cute.
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, etc...: After Wayne we heading back to the campus and had to make one stop before we got back. We stopped by the creek. It was beautiful, all the little creeks that run along the campus. We stopped at this one little sandbar where I was taught, the right way, how to skip a rock. I could totally skip rocks all day long if I could. It never gets old, I don't know why, but it just doesn't. Ha, Michael made a little walk way and managed to walk around the creek to the other side of land. It was really nice over there, we saw about 10 turtles, a few geese, the sun was shining, and it was just beautiful all around. Shortly after the creek we headed back to campus where I got a personal tour of the campus and I met a ton of people. Including: Steve, Eric, Bethany, Jeff, Kristen, Erin, Kaylee, Paul, Matt, Chelsea, Katherine, Julie, Heather, Ben, Ryan, Andrew, and Dan. I'm sure I'm missing a few names, I apologize. Everyone was really nice and sweet. I love meeting new people so this was perfect. We headed back to his dorm for a bite and just sat and talked. That never, ever gets old. There is so much still to learn about him so talking was nice. Later on we headed to the dining hall to get dinner where I saw Ms. Cassie Miller! Cassie was Student Council President at my school last year, it was really comforting for like 3 seconds to see a familiar face. I said hi, we chatted, and then off we went. After dinner we went and sat on this ledge by the pond/lake thingy that was shaded like a heart. Ever have one of those moments that's just perfect, and you know you'll never forget it? I had some of those moments tonight. We were sitting along the pond/ lake thingy, the sun was setting for the night, the sun was bright on the water, the warmth was beating on my face, I was facing the lake, and Michael was facing the opposite way, we were sitting next to each other and at one moment we just turned and looked at each other while talking. And for some reason, that moment right there, when we were looking at each other was perfect. Everything about it. The setting, the timing, it was great. :] It was about 7: 30pm when we headed back to his dorm and popped in a movie I had never seen before, Transformers, the 2nd one. The movie was good, the time we were watching the movie was even better. There's something about tickling each other that just gets me. It's so much fun and so cute. And that's exactly what happened. There was one more thing that happened tonight that was perfect. It feel right. It didn't feel wrong, it felt just right. That, I will not forget either.
Overall today was everything I thought it would be and more. I can't help but smile everything I think about something that happened today, or the people I met, or the person I had just spent 10 hours with straight. And you know whats funny? I'd do it all over again it a heart beat. I just had that good of a time. I am so thankful God put this person in my life at the time he did. He's truly amazing, and everything I've ever wanted in a guy, and in a friend. I really hope he's in my life for quite sometime. I really do.
But it's getting late, I better go to bed. Thank you for everything today and everything that is yet to come.
