How I met her

I met my beautiful girlfriend Alize about 3 years ago. We both had worked at Safeway and well we didn’t really work with each other, we worked in different departments. So one day I walked in the back room and she happened to be there, I walked passed her and I said hi she said hi back. I kept walking and then I felt bad  because I didn’t say her name because honestly it’s hard to pronounce well at least it was for me. So I turned back and I asked her how to say her name, she laughed and told me and then we both continued on with our life’s. No big deal!

A couple months after that she got promoted to Starbucks and thats when I started to talk to her more because I would order my drink, we started talking here and there and just being friendly towards each other. One day our co workers had set up a  bowling night but she did not end up going. I was kinda sad she wasn’t there because I was looking forward to seeing her there. So I had texted her and asked her if she was coming and she said she wasn’t sure and well I don’t know how I did it but i’m pretty sure I persuaded her to go.  She ended up going and we hung out but homegirl was hungry so I went with her to Carl’s Jr. to get some food and she had offered to buy me food since I drove and  I said no of course. But I was kinda happy inside knowing I was with her and that she ended up showing up.  At the time I knew I had a little crush on her maybe but nothing to major maybe I was just happy she offered to buy me food who knows. Lol!! After that bowling night we kept texting I would text her everyday just to text her, I would ask her to go eat after work and we would do that like everyday or every other day. I started to like her more and more and I always felt really nervous every time I would see her. It got to the point where I had really bad anxiety that every time i’d go to work and I would walk fast past her department and I wouldn’t say hi to her. But I would still want to hangout with her and it made me sad when we couldn’t hangout. The more I hung out with her the more I liked her. I tried to fight the fact that I liked her so bad because I didn’t want to get my hopes up. It was just something that I didn’t want to force and I loved our friendship so much that I didn’t want to ruin that by telling her I had feelings for her. So I just continued seeing her as a friend for a while until one day at night we were texting late and we were talking and she would say things that made me believe that she knew I liked her.  I was also texting my best friend at the same time and she just told me to tell her that it wouldn’t hurt anybody. I told Alize I liked her and well she didn’t say much she just said she had no idea and I felt like such an idiot and I didn’t want to loose our friendship. So I told her to forget it and to just act like I never told her I was so embarrassed and I just wanted to hide under rock. A couple days after that we were talking as usual and she said she wanted to go to the drive Ins or if that was too romantic and shit for me! Lol!! I honestly wanted to smack her and I said no. We had our first date 2 days after to the drive Ins we saw inside out and after our movie date we went to eat at in n out where we shared our first kiss! 💕 We had our ups and downs before we started dating her trying to figure out what she wanted and me well patiently impatiently waiting for her to be ready. I wasn’t trying to pressure her but I was trying to figure out what was going on and if I was wasting my time or if I had messed up a great friendship.  It took her awhile to figure out what she wanted But here we are now 2 years later we are going stronger than ever. I’ve never imagined that i’d be dating one of my best friends. I can tell her anything and everything and i’m glad I took that risk. Moral of the story! If you want to take a risk take it whether it’d be in your love life, friendships  , etc., take that risk! Don’t live life wondering what if I did this or what if I did that. Do what YOU think is best for You! I took a risk that day and confessed my crush to her and it was honestly the best thing I have ever done.  2 years and I couldn’t be happier! She is my everything and i’d do anything for her even if it means putting a simple smile on her face.  I would just like her to know…  Thank you for being here for me in the good the bad and the ugly. You are my number one supporter in all this and i’m your number one supporter in all your dreams! 🙂

Funny story

Its kinda of a funny story on how Alize and I got our dog Benny. One day we were hanging out and we were doing our usual thing. Which is walking around the mall doing a whole bunch of nothing and everything. We got bored of walking around and decided to go to the animal shelter and just walk around and see some animals and give them a little love and attention they needed. The one we always go to was closed and the closest one was in Milpitas which was the Humane Society. We got there and it was one of the nicest animal shelters that we have been to. It was pretty cool each animal had a private room and a small space to walk outside. I really liked it there because the animals didn't seem so scared like the ones in normal animal shelters. We walked around for a while and we saw this dog who had the name Alder and Alize fell in love with him because he was just so cute and was so lazy. The biggest cuddle bug you can meet. He looked so relaxed and cuddly. We kept walking around because we didn't want to disturb his slumber. We ran across another dog named Lars he was the cutest thing on the planet a big husky. We wanted to meet them so bad. But we both knew we couldn't take home another dog because of where we currently live and how we don't live together. It was just not a good situation but we talked long and hard about what we were going to do and well we asked to see Lars and Alder. We waited around a bit till we could meet one of them. We talked again and decided to live in the  moment and see what happens. But we knew we wanted a dog. Our first option was to see Lars but we couldn't at that time because they had to show him us in a yard and currently there was another dog there. So we met Alder first and lets just say Alder is our Benny boy. We met him and he was just so cute and so lovable. When we went to pet him he dropped himself on the floor and wanted us to rub his belly. We instantly fell in love with him and we knew we had to rescue him. When we told the counselor that we would take him. She said great and tried to get him back in his room and that was a struggle. He did not want to get up and she had to pick him. We knew he'd be perfect for us he is a big cuddle bug but also a very active dog but very lazy at the same time. He is just perfect for us. Alize took him home with her and well he's been with her for 4 months now and we couldn't be happier. She told her mom last minute she got a dog and well that was an interesting things. Lol!! He is something else he is very stubborn at times and I just cant with him. Lol!! He loves meeting new dogs and humans too. He gets sad and start crying when he cant meet other dogs. A lot of people are scared of him because he does look kind of scary but he is harmless. He is very friendly and loves people even though people are afraid of him. He is a year and half and is a  Mastiff and American PitBull mix. He has a cute face but the body of a pitbull. He has a big head for his body and he can be cute but very scary looking but all he wants is belly rubs and cuddles.

Kevina Thotins

The first day I started working at Starbucks I was scared and nervous. It’s always a scary experience starting a new job and not knowing anything. I remember seeing this crazy fast person working and it intimidated me. I was like whatever he’s probably been here forever no big deal. As I was being trained he tried helping me. I remember him showing me how to do things. It was funny because he would show me and then want me to do it after and I remember I was like I don’t like him, like leave me alone I’m not ready. Lol! But he helped me out a lot in Starbucks. He got promoted to  a supervisor and was honestly one of the funnest times ever because I would laugh, dance, and cry all at the same times. He was one of the loudest people I have ever met. The more I worked the more we would get close. I never in 100 years would of thought that I would make a friend like him at work. In my pervious job I learned that people can hate you behind your back and love you to your face. So I wasn’t expecting to make friends. The more I talked to Kevin the more I trusted him. He gave me a feeling that he was going to be my best friend not just for a while but for life. So far we’ve been friends for about 2 years. But it feels like I’ve known him for a life time. I can tell him anything and everything and know he doesn’t judge me.  I would honestly take a bullet for him. He’s had some pretty bad boyfriends and I hate seeing him sad. It breaks my heart that some one could hurt my best friend like that and I can’t do anything about it besides being there for him. We’ve moved on from Starbucks and I really hoped we didn’t lose contact. GUESS WHAT? We didn’t I still see him at least once a week and text him on a daily basis. Kevin is my best friend and you might be thinking why is he important? Kevin is important because he is a part of my life. Kevin is not just some friend he is my best friend my brother. Some of the craziest most fun days are the days I spend with him and my girlfriend. I hope he will always be a part of my life. I love him like my brother. He deserves the world and much more. He is genuinely a nice guy who has a big heart. He is the most lovable, high energy, loud ass human I met. But he is my best friend and I wouldn’t trade him for the world! He’s been there for me since I met him and I know he’ll always be there for me in the good and the bad. He accepts me for who I am the crazy psycho moody bitch that I am. He knows once I’m fed I’m back to my normal happy self. He helps me with a lot of my problems and isn’t afraid to tell me when I’m wrong. I honestly love you for being so honest someitmes a little to honest. Lol! Don’t ever forget you can conquer the world booboo I love you Kevina!!!!
