K.

I had a request for this blog post lol. What I haven't really shared is that once upon a time I was engaged. Yes I know lucky guy huh?! LOL. I showed him my blog & he was offended that I didn't mention him in any post especially one's that were inspired by him! Your probably thinking, "wth you showed your ex fiancee your blog?!" Yes I did! I'm comfortable enough with him to let him read anything & everything I have posted thus far. We're cool like that.

He 7 I were together for almost 3 years. The LONGEST years of my life! Nah I'm just kidding. They were actually really great. I have A LOT of wonderful memories from our time together. Seriously if I got started talking about everything it would take numerous blog post. Seriously no one would wanna read anything. What I do wanna share is 1 or 2 nice moments we shared & how much our relationship changed me as a person. I know he's readying this & thinking "oh hell." Don't worry K it won't be as bad as you think! :)

First let me start by saying I knew him since high school but to be honest I didn't like him lol. Everyone always gets a good laugh about that. However we did go to a Mac Homecoming together! Unfortunately all of the pics from that night are blurry! I remember it was rainy and cold. We went to eat at Olive Garden then went to see Jack Ass. LMAO. You know what I won't every forget?! That he was my date but didn't even compliment me first! One of our other friends did then he did! And don't try to argue with me Kendrin! You know its true!

Kendrin & I didn't get together until after high school. About 2 years went buy whenever we got back in touch with each other thanks to Myspace! He was in Iraq when we started talking just as friends. He was in a completely different time in his life at the time. Obviously he came home & we ended up going to the movies together. Worst mistake ever! If I woulda known.......lol jk. I wish I could remember the movie we saw but I do remember going to eat at Taco Cabana! Lol. Honestly after that night on we were always together. At least until he had to go back t California. It's kinda crazy how everything developed now that I think about it.

You know what really made my parents mad at the both of us? I went to visit him one weekend in December to go to the Military Ball & never came back. Like literally I was like f it I'm staying here with you. My parent's were more than upset/pissed. I did come home for the holidays tho! & packed up my stuff and relocated! Everyone always thinks that was so crazy, but hey the things we do for love! When I first lived there it was horrible because I was so homesick! I cried all the time lol! I'm sure you remember Kendrin!

The one thing that was so wonderful was that we were always so in love. Our friends always told us that eventually it would wear off but honestly it never really did. They were just jealous because they weren't like us! This might be TMI but I always loved that we showered together. It was out couple thing. I remember how he wouldn't be able to go to sleep unless I was laying next to him. At the time that was so annoying & i would lay there till he fell asleep then get up & play on the computer lol. Now that I think about it, it was probably one of the sweetest things ever.

Other great memories I have is when we went to Disneyland before he deployed to Iraq. Great time! Really a place everyone should go! Even tho we didn't do so much there it was so cool! I got the Minnie ears that you must get if you go! Oh and the Bugs Life ride thing was amazing! I still remember that trip like it was yesterday! I know you don't K! Okay you probably do! I think for me the greatest moment was when he came back from Iraq safe & chunky lol! He looked so good with the weight on him! He's naturally tall and lanky so all those MRE's did his body good lol.

I'm not gonna lie those 7 months went by fast for me. Probably because I was busy working so I had that on my mind as well. I never really worried much either which sounds weird I know. The reason is that I was fortunate enough to be able to talk to him practically everyday! Thank you satellite phones! Yea you dropped our calls a lot but you got the job done! I remember when Kendrin came home it was late at night & it was freaking cold! My bff drove me from Oceanside to 29 Palms & waited with me. Awww such good memories. Kendrin actually came home on my birthday. So perfect I know!!

Seriously I could go on and on and on! Don't get me started on pics either lol! This won't be my last post about him. Too many memories, experiences, lessons to just sum it all in one post or even any post. There is something I do wanna say. Regardless of what happened between us or what will happen I will always love him. We went thru alot & I experienced so much that there is no way I can't think about him & not smile. For that, thank you Kendrin. Thank you for more than you will ever know.



XOXO,
