 I've
had my fair share of "girl" problems. I've had more
downs than ups but sometimes you can't have things fall
directly how you want them to.. especially with me.
Until I met Lisa..
This past Wednesday I met Lisa for the first time.
I've known Lisa for a while now but have never met before.
Now I wasn't expecting anything at all, just something
to forget the drama I've gone through in the past couple
weeks. I picked her up, she doesn't live that far away
from me. In fact my friend Kim lives about a block away
from her. First thing I noticed was that she was extremely
gorgeous but I've been attracted to pretty girls before
and be turned off by their personality, so I didn't
make a big deal out of it. We got into my car and I
smelled some Bath and Body Works lotion.. a definite
plus
 .
We went to go each some lunch and just talked for a
couple of hours. Everything was going great but she
had to go to work. So I dropped her off at home.
We went out again Thursday night because she was
off that day. I worked earlier that day and I was feeling
somewhat nauseas, not so much sick but more stressed
from everything going on in my life. We headed out to
the Montebello Mall and then to Toys R Us to look for
a Stitch doll. She had read that I wanted one from my
site a couple weeks ago. Very thoughtful and attentive..
more definite pluses
.
So she got one for me and I got one for her.
So we headed out to the La Puente Mall because we
had decided to eat at the Olive Garden near there. We
weren't hungry yet so we went inside to waste some time.
We went to the Borders because she was looking for a
book; The Art of War. Of course I had to show her the
magazine I was featured in
.
We then went to a store in the second floor (Damnit
I forgot the name). She had a lil keychain made for
me (picture above on the right) with the words TEKREBEL.
While it was being made I couldn't help but stare at
her because I was beginning to worry. Nothing ever goes
this perfectly without having some type of catch or
stipulation attached to it. To me.. the little things
have always counted more. The keychain is one of the
best things I've ever gotten and I love it.
We went to Olive Garden. All day me and Lisa had
been playing the slug bug game and the out-of-state
plate game. It's so much fun playing with her. One of
these days I'm gonna beat her at it
 .
I absolutely love italian food. All throughout dinner
she would make me laugh and smile with her little eyebrow
move. Afterwards we went to the SpeedZone.
We first went and did a round of racing. We were
having this little friendly competition going on. I
beat her in the racetrack
,
but she beat me in Dance Dance Revolution (and that's
only cuz I suck at it
).
I beat her in Air Hockey but she beat me in Skeeball.
So the score was tied 2-2. And then I beat her in B-ball
shooting, Mole Mashing, and a couple more games in Air
Hockey and Skeeball. In the end I won 6-3
.
That fact that she played the games with me was more
than I could ever ask for. Another big plus
.
Afterwards we went to the place where we had lunch the
other day to get some Boba.
We were getting to that point where we had to end
the night. For the first time in a long time I was actually
nervous! We ended the night and I gave her a kiss on
the cheek. (?!?!?!?!?) Ending a date with a kiss on
the cheek?!? I haven't ended a date like that since
high school! Nonetheless I was more than satisfied with
that
.
In fact I couldn't stop thinking about it all night.
Saturday I had to work but after work I called up
Lisa to see if she wanted to go see a movie. So I got
her a rose, nothing too fancy especially since I had
like an hour after work to prepare myself before I saw
her. We saw Reign of Fire which was really good by the
way. It felt really good to hold hands
.
It was like a perfect fit. I was really really nervous!
During the movie she fed me pretzels and it was the
cutest thing
.
Afterwards we went to Fridays and shared some ice cream
and brownies. Thanx to Mike for hookin us up!
It was that time again. You think I was nervous the
first time, I was twice that that night. She gave me
a small kiss and I was speechless. I seriously was in
just awe. When I got home I couldn't sleep at all. It
was a special moment for me that I truly needed.
On Monday I picked her up to go buy my new TV with
me. We had lunch in the Cafe at my store. I just caught
myself staring more and more at her. Like how could
I be so lucky. She's everything I look for and there's
nothing I want to change about her... NOTHING! I like
her, maybe even more, but I don't want to rush into
anything and screw this up. I'm so scared that I'm gonna
screw this up.
"I'm scared..
not so much in taking a step forward.. but for not being
able to take a step back"
To me that means so many different things. Every
step I take forward is a step I can't take back. Anywaz
that's all for now. Damn I wrote a freaking novel
.
To Lisa... I'm really grateful that I've been given
the opportunity.. the chance to meet you and to get
to know you as a person. Everyday I look forward to
seeing you again.
Thank You for everything. "I always remember those late
afternoons.. it lasted forever and ended so soon..."
Mandy Moore.. Cry.
