A Plethora of Emotions
A first date is one of the most memorable and life changing event that many girls go through. The ideal first date usually consists of flowers, candy, dinner, and a wonderful handsome prince. The first date is an overrated night in which many girls get their hopes up but it does not goes out as planned. Like many girls, I was a dreamer who wanted to experience the overrated night. I wanted the candy and the flowers; and I had planned out the evening in my mind and how it would turn out. I wanted the whole entire shebang, but I did not get any of it. My first date did not include the fancy dinner with a violinist or a knight in shinning armor at my house with a bundle of red roses; nor did it include an over elaborated evening with dancing, fined deserts, or a horse carriage ride home. Even though the date was not the enchanted fairy tale that I was hoping for, it was still a night that I hold deep in my heart because I experienced for the first time, a roller coaster of emotions starting from the meet and greet, the heart of the date, and the ending of a once in a life time moment. On the day of the date, I was beleaguered with trepidation that the date would go horribly wrong since Mother Nature was suffering through her mood swings. The afternoon sky was consisted of huge smog of gray fogs that seemed like it was going to pour down acidic rain on me any seconds. I was in my new outfit that consisted of a baby blue tank top blouse with tiny little flowers scatter all across, a pair of kaki slack that was just purchased at Express, and my newly cleaned strapless tan high-heels sandals. My hair was silky-smooth and curly like those shampoo models on TV, and my face was glistened a light tan tone from the Lancôme concealer that I used. I stood in the front entrance of the mall, fiddling with my fingers waiting anxiously and nervously like a student waiting to get her diploma. I kept on pacing back and forth, trying to hide my frustration that he was ten minutes

    Our blind date was late for 45 minutes; I started to get angry and annoyed, so I said ‘’ I knew it; this is why I hate online dating. I am leaving this stupidity.” In the same instant, she walked in, and the time stopped. It was the girl of my dreams, with big hazel eyes piercing through my soul. With her glowing skin, modest elegance and discrete makeup, she had style and glamour of classic Hollywood beauty. Simple five word ‘’ Hi, my name is Johana” made me feel as I know her for decades. In contradiction, Sergio and her sister Andrea left us almost immediately, as they didn’t have any mutual connection. The hours slipped by like seconds; we kept talking about countless subjects, oblivious of our surroundings; it turned out that we are like long lost twins reunited again. As we liked the same book (“The Forth Agreement”), food, sports, and even held the identical views on morality and…

    The clock above my head ticks slowly, the sound ever increasing as the minutes pass by; tick, tick, tick. I normally do not notice the time while I work, usually I am the energizer bunny of workers, in early, out late, always working or willing to, but that day was different; I had a date; a first date to be exact. Finally the time has come for me to go home; I step out into the warm Vegas air, I can smell the familiar scents of fall slowly encroaching on the city. September in Vegas is typically warm, with the average daily temperatures in the upper nineties. I lite a cigarette and walk through the parking garage to my car. My mind was racing; what will he be like, will he be funny, boring; I even allow my thoughts to drift to what he would look like naked.…

    One insignificant thing that made me uncomfortable was when you held my hand, you did it the wrong way. Instead of interlocking fingers like most people do, you cupped your hand against mine, but I guess most people do not strip the dignity off other people. Nevertheless, while we were at the pet store, you came behind me, wrapped your arms around me in a way that made me cringe, and whispered provocative things in my ear. This increased my dislike towards you, but, again, I overlooked it. By this point you bought the tickets and I did not want to leave in the middle of the date due to an awkward comment. Frankly, I have yet to be on a first date lacking…

    Then there was a second date, and a third, and a fourth, and a three hundredth. Eventually, the time spent apart was so much less prevalent than the time we were together that we began talking about moving in together. The relationship progressed fluidly, like rushing water cutting through the rock of cynicism, splashing right past the banks of bad memories. Everything fell into place, making every moment feel amazingly magical, and maybe a little bit fated, as if someone had played dice and the future was…

    The day began just like any other day. The ringing of the alarm clock and a quick breakfast that could hardly be call a meal. I was afraid. My way around this fear was to retreat into myself. This seemed to be the easy answer for me. I did not put myself out there. There fore I did not risk rejection. Looking back now, that was not the answer. I know now that I missed out on a lot. I guess that’s why it is said that hind sight is 20/20.…

    For some reason this day was different, he seemed to move in slow motion when I saw him. At that precise moment the wind magically picked up swaying his beautiful beach blonde hair ever so gently and his smile seemed to sparkle like the stars when he looked my way. Now from the outside it looked like he didn’t faze me at all but my hands started to sweat as I held on to my books a little tighter like a snake constricting its prey as he came closer. In my head I prayed that he wouldn’t look at me with his glistening blue eyes, because I might break out of the whole calm act I was attempting. I turned my head away trying to pull myself together but I could hear every step he made closer to me and feel his eyes sizing me up while getting ready to use the same pickup line he always used. My heart was racing and my mind was trying to figure out why I was acting like this when I saw him in my peripheral. My mind told me to run but my legs wouldn’t do it and by that time he leaned against the wall, ever so gently, right next to me and said nothing.…

    Somehow it is normal for others that may become so nervous, hence having to forget bringing the flowers, sometimes it may be losing track of time or having to forget the actual address. Well, it’s my first date, nervous and palms are sweating. I’m feeling as if the world will end if I knock on her door, looking at the watch and its six p.m. It was then I realized that I had forgotten to get her flowers, so I quickly ran out to her front yard and search for at least a flower that is worth looking at. I stumbled up a rose bush and painfully picked up five white roses. Rubbed off the little blood I had on my palm with my black jeans and went back to the front door. It was then I noticed she was already there, door wide opened, seeing her beautiful eyes looking at me puzzled as I nervously handed her the white roses. She looked at them as if she knows where these roses come from. We smiled and I spoke out but I didn’t quite well put my words so she just told her parents that she was leaving and out we went, having thoughts in my mind that next time I shouldn’t forget the flowers.…

    My Disastrous Date

    October 18th, 2014 was the day which I cannot not to embrace it in my mind. That was a Saturday, which I did not have to take my evening classes at IFL as weekday schedules. That was a very special day I wished to have in my life for these twenty years. Personally, it was supposed to be an exciting moment; however, things was not that as expected. The story was initially started by a night before it, which was in October 17th, 2014. On that night, I received a Facebook inbox from a guy, who I had been chatting to, texted to date me out to meet on the following day. I got no hesitation to refuse him since I also wondered how he was in real person beyond in social media channel. Hence, the date was confirmed. I was kind of suffering an unusual heartbeat, and I was like could not fall asleep well at that night. Tick tock, tick tock… the time was flying in a slow speed that I could not wait anymore to let it reached 5pm as soon as possible. Hours passed, I prepared myself in a gorgeous dress and preceded the dating venue a half hour to make sure I was not late for my first date as I was late for every class at school. Unluckily, the early arrival made me bored and impatient to wait my partner. I was counting my phone’s clock again to wish every minute could flied a bit faster, and it was like a ten-minute late from the appointed time that I was sit still without seeing his shadow to reach me. I was so hungry and could not wait not to order the meal. That my bad routine of posting my meal on Facebook before I had it gave myself an excuse to access the free Wi-Fi and chatted to him why he was not yet there. Then I got a sign of “Seen” via the chat without any response back. Frustrated by the chat, I was quite aggressive, and accidently on the way to restroom, I hit the café’s servant while he was serving another customer’s coffee. As a consequence, I was spilt with brown stain of coffee kissed on my beautiful dress. That…

    As time pasted me and my mom found me something to wear and did my hair. “Calm down, you will do fine” my mom said because I was sitting there shaking. A little while later the door bell rang and it was him looking handsome as ever. My mom took pictures of us like we were going to prom but we didn’t mind. After the paparazzi was done we left. I had asked him where we were going a thousand times but he told me it was a surprise. As we pulled up to our destination I noticed that it was Olive Garden, which is my favorite restaurant. We went in, sat down, ate, and talked about old times. Once we were good and full, he paid for the food and we left. As we pulled back up to my house he started acting weird and it made me worry. “Can we start actually dating now” he said as he looked at me smiling. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even say yes so I kissed him to let him know that I was okay with us actually being together. We then began to talk about how we met and how we got to where we’re now. Hours had pasted and we were still in the car just talking. It was getting late so he walked me to the door and then surprised me with two teddy bears and a kiss on the forehead and told me that he…
