One week.
That's all it has been; is one week.
It feels like a month has already passed and I'm sure that's how Mason feels right about now. I watched a series of videos on YouTube that showed what it was like to be in the Marine core boot camp. It looked like it was made around the 90's, yet I'm sure the rules and how they treat their recruits didn't change much. I also believe that it was set in San Diego. So it gave me a greater view of what my May May might actually be doing.
Another relaxing day today. I will continue with my memories but right now I'd like to share with you how the fair went two nights ago! I can't believe I forgot to type that up in my last post! I just get so excited talking about Mason and about us that... I get carried away! You should see me in real life when I talk about him nowadays. I am a whip. I go on and on and get more hyper the more I speak of him. My Italian side truly shows the most because I am gesturing like a son of a gun. It's kind of funny. :)
NOW... I will tell you about my time at the fair...
It was a blast! Like I said, I did buy a lot of the things I wanted. We stayed there for a good 2 hours. Pitbull was there singing so we got to hear his music as we adventured through the buildings, looking for whatever we could find. God... And did me and mom make fun of the hussies who "dressed up" for the concert!! Jesus, some of them OBVIOUSLY don't have any respect for themselves... I'd be dressed the same way as I was; green sweatshirt, worn jeans with a hole at the knee, and green Vans! I wouldn't even do my hair! Just pull it up in a ponytail and wah-lah... I'm ready to see Pitbull!!
What we bought there wasn't ONLY food; we bought some cool wristbands, awesome shirts, some beads that suck up water to hydrate your plants, aaaand... I think other things too but I don't totally remember... Damn memory!
Anyway, you guys have to check out this website: RedChapterClothing.com. There shirts and stuff are AMAZING. They are incredibly SICK, it's stupid (That's a good thing!). I got a couple, my mom bought one, and my dad got a couple too. Mark Palmer designs them and they are MIND-blowing. They have great messages like, "When you walk through flames, hold your head up high." It's just so awesome! I fell in love. Too bad they are pricey! I'd go on a shopping spree with whatever they have!
The wristbands are neat too. There are all sorts of different ones: Pain Killer, Focus, Weight Loss, etc. I bought a focus one (sharing with mom) and a relaxation one (to help me with this anxiety and grief). I suppose they each send different signals through your blood stream or up to your brain where your brain interacts with the signals and changes your mood. It's like trickery! You put on the relaxation band and your brain goes, "Oh, I'm relaxed." and you don't have anxiety over something anymore. Like I put on the relaxation one, I had a throbbing headache, and the aching stopped right then and there. I almost began freaking out but I told myself, "Nope. This is legit." So we bought a few of those. I've been wearing my relaxation one all weekend. No anxiety at all! No headaches either! I'm just... chill as HELL. Then, when I'm going to school, I'll put on the focus band. Hopefully that one will work. Might have to lend that one to YOU, Chris when we're on the phone!!
Just yankin' your chain!
Yet if you'd like to try it, when I go down there next, I'll bring it and see how you feel :)
Or! Whichever one you'd like!
Okay?
Okay. :D
Alright... So all in all, I had a great, fun time. I needed it. On Wednesday, I am still going to my therapist and then on Thursday, I'll be seeing my friend Taylor (or, as we announce her; Tay Tay). I don't know what we're going to do! But anything will still be a thrill :)
Now... BACK... to MEMORY LANE!!! Shall we?
During a school break, me and the History Club class went on a trip to the East Coast! We went to Boston, Salem, Harlem, Central Park, NY City, and Philadelphia. Me and Mason weren't talking much then. We got into a couple of fights before hand about him telling me I was "shallow" ever since I switched schools. Our biggest fight was about him going to the Marines. I promised myself to never date a soldier... Well, look at me now.
However, because I didn't know many people at my new school, I resorted to him as the days went by. We talked A BUNCH and I was SO happy we were! I felt left out with all the other students... They didn't know me and I kind of didn't want to know them! They weren't like my friends at my old high school... They were a bit more snobby because they knew they had more money and loved to show it through how they acted. Mason was my comfort zone, even though he was across America.
One of the cutest memories I will forever cherish is when I first sent him a heart through text (<3). He said to me (not at the time, though) that when he saw that heart, he almost keeled over. He thought I'd never do such a thing! We were friends! Why would I? Because I cared about him. And hearts to friends mean I love them... In a friendly way!
We never called one another before. I think we were too shy. But I was in the hotel room with two other girls (one talked in her sleep...) and wondered, "Maybe I should call him instead of text him all the time?" The two other girls suddenly decided to go downstairs. I forgot why. But it was the moment where I texted him, "Could I call you?" And he said, "Sure."
I had so many butterflies in my stomach, I could have easily coughed one up. I didn't know why at the time.
I believe I fell for his charm already.
Nevertheless, I was STRICT with myself because of my last three relationships and how AWFUL they were. So I advised myself, "No, no, NO. You are NOT getting a boyfriend until you are in college. Is that understood?" Sheesh, I was my own overly protective mother...
When he picked up and said, "Hello?" my heart skipped... His voice was so deep and manly, I didn't know how to answer! I was shocked! I didn't remember his voice being so... HEART MELTING! Because of this over whelming moment, I spoke how I felt.
You should have saw me on the bed...
Rolling around, face gleaming, wide smile from ear to ear. I bet you my eyes were glistening. They usually do when I am at the peak of prime blissfulness.
I was in such a state, I told him, after the phone call, how much I loved his voice. I told him it was handsome and that it was nice to hear him talk. I also let him know that I was sorry for sounding strange, if I did. I informed him I was shy and he shared with me he was too.
Mason told me that when we had that phone call, he tried so very hard to sound as cool as he could be.
He did.
When I came home, Mason and I were still jibber-jabbering away. It was like old times. Yet we haven't hung out with each other in over a year. However, prior to asking him about hanging out, I was curious to if he even liked me like how I always believed. My curiosity got the best of me... I guessed he would say No because... I sometimes have that sort of "luck". But for some odd reason, I felt as if I should ask anyway.
And I did.
And after a few minutes of waiting and pondering, my cell phone vibrated. I fumbled with my phone, hurrying to check the response!
"Yes." was his reply.
Okay everybody!! I have school tomorrow! Stop keeping me up so late all the time! ;) I'll write about our memories some more tomorrow, don't worry. I got it! I understand! But I need my rest.
Goodnight everyone.
