What's on my Mind?

So it’s probably cliche to blog about your first date, and it’s probably weirder that i’ve been dating M for 6 months before going on a date, BUT: I am tempted to run to Grouse Moutntain and tell the whole world about our amazing date! Be Prepared about this post, you have been warned.

Today, i was really nervous for this date. I wasn’t quite sure why - because have been madly in love with M for half a year now! Dates shouldn’t be new, right? If i’m being honest, living under the roof of very conservative parents, it was difficult to make them understand that I’m responsible to go on dates. In fact, it wasn’t until i had a heart-to-heart with my Mom did they understand that they have to let their only daughter grow up sometime.

Our date had been planned for nearly a week, so you can understand when i tell you that the nervousority had been mulling over in my stomach for a bit (actually,i think my Mom was more nervous about this date than i was, which only made me a bit more antsy as well!). This morning, i found myself changing my outfit 50 times over before choosing a casual jeans and long-sleeve, and spending the other half of the morning curling my hair. I definitely over-did the perfume, spraying a million different scents onto my body before leaving the house.

As he picked me up, i found myself giddier than ever. I snuck peeks at him as he drove casually to the Mall where we let the first of nerves settle down. It was odd, being at Metrotown as a couple. I don’t know how other couples manage spending their time at that place… i’m sure M would agree when i say that we would go crazy if we spent any more time there than we did.

We decided to watch a movie at Station square, and (we’re still confused as to why we picked this movie, it’s such a dumb and cliche “romance couple movie” movie..HAHA) watched the Vow, with none other than Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams, the two biggest love turds in all of Hollywood. As we sat there, we occasionally made funny remarks at how scripted the movie is and how dumb it was. But in all truth, I caught M getting a little teary-eyed during the movie! To sum the movie:  It was terrible. there were parts where we didn’t get, and at one point, we were convinced that Rachel McAdams was a lesbian..? Don’t watch it.

After that, We went to Pho for an early dinner. That was suprising. I always thought going out for dinner as a couple would be so awkward, sitting in silence as we eat out food. That certainly wasn’t the case! We had an awesome time talking and laughing about our chilidhood and about things that had happened to us recently.

With Dinner-Jitters out of the way, We made our way to “our park” (which in a sum, is the place where we spent the summer getting to know each other) and talked. It got a little cold, though, so we sat in the car and talked.

It’s amazing. Being so… :)
This was the best first date ever!
