Hi Calista! This is Ed speaking. I hope you're doing well and having a great day. I can't believe its already Valentine's Day! Time really flies. We've had so many great memories through out all this time we've known each other, so I thought it'd be cute to walk down memory lane.

I still remember how nervous and excited I was to meet you. What a fun day it was! Remember how far away from you I was the whole night? I remember thinking about how cute you were and how much fun it was talking while we painted. It was so funny how much of a trouble we went through to take a polaroid pic.

I... I was not smooth at all with this. I really thought you just didn't like me for like the next 10 minutes while we tried to figure it all out. 10 minutes of dejection and being like "AHHHHHHHH FUUUUUKKKKK". Look at us now though, so maybe that was smooth of me ;)

the cool crisp morning breeze
who's haunting tendrils are enticingly stimulating

the pretty pastel mix of
oranges,
reds,
pinks,
blues,
that the sunset brings in tow
who's therapeutic views are universally loving

the stars in the skies above who's celestial guidance could inspire ancient gods and goddesses

the perfectly imperfect moon who's lunar rays shine upon those who yearn

of all the natural phenomena, none rival that of her existence

On this day, the Owl prophecy was born. Shoutout to Amy Lee and all her sponsors. We met up and went to Marshalls bc we love Marshalls :D

What the title says. I think we just had a sleepover and chilled out :]. We took some insanely cute pics which is why I have included it. If you have any memories of this specific day, lmk. All I remember is you telling me that Sam thought I was weird looking from these LOL.

Remember when you had all these assumptions of me and you thought I was going to be embarrassing to go out with? After like MONTHS of hooking up you finally dared to go out on a real date with me HAHAHA. We got Kbbq and I talked too much and I stressed you out since we had a time limit. Whats new huh. However, after that we got our Kirby Griffin shirts and did a lil photoshoot, as well as going to the rooftop to make some real good midnight S'mores!!

We finally got to go to Swingers! We had our iconic mini golf date. It was alot of fun getting drunk and going around the course. You were absolutely bodying me until you sobered up hahaha. I hit that hole in one and the same hole that you got a bogey and the tides immediately turned. After that, we ate some good food and enjoyed a fun time together :]. We also went to cvs after.

For 4th of July, we decided to watch the fireworks on the roof and we had a lil' barbecue for ourselves!! We, and by we, I mean me, made some great bacon wrapped Hot Dogs! We then waited for the fireworks on what definitely felt like a fire hazard level amount of people. Mostly kind of annoying white millennials... it was very live laugh love out there.

Board games at your place. I completely destroyed you at Stratego after I got both of our most powerful pieces out. You were fucking pissed LMFAOOO.

So I already tend to run kind of warm. Now, add the sweltering, disgusting, swampy, humid Maryland weather, and that makes a very sweaty, moist man. Even worse, being sweaty and sticky and moist while covered in crab shell and crab guts. It really came together to craft quite the experience. It was alot of fun but MAN I felt gross hahahaahahah

We finally had the chance to go to a comedy show! And what better act to see than one of our faves, Ali Wong! She had so many raunchy ass jokes, but that made it real fun. We also got to eat some good ice cream while we hid from the rain!

This night we finally got to do some Michelin Star fine dining in that quirky restaurant in the alley way. It was actually immensely rich and flavorful. I feel like that experience really elevated the potential of food for me. I am thankful you joined me for dinner there!

I don't have any other pics from this on the flight or anything. But I just remember you dying when we took this video, I think saying that you really wanted to drink LOL. And then we got invited to a party at Ktsai's but we were hella tired, and also feeling shitty. This was back when the Plane motion sickness didn't exist :D

After months of planning we finally made it to the promised land! We did all of the cute shit and I had the time of my life. Despite the many stomach problems and bowel movements and menstruation, we made the most of it and had a great time! We got to ride pretty much everything. Some lowlights though; Pirates of the Carribean breaking down while we were halfway through the line, and the Airbnb looking sketchy.

After a rough night at a lame Airbnb, we awaken sore and beaten only to take on another park. We slap on some Salonpas and hobble around the California themed park. We also get to ride the River Rapids ride despite you feeling a little scared at first! I don't know how I convinced you, but I'm glad I did!

We got pho, and it was good, but too much cilantro :-( I felt so bad the rest of the day for not reminding you to get no cilantro. But after that, we went to Balboa park and took some fire pictures of u!! WE HAD A WHOLE ASS PHOTO SHOOT. Its actually insane how gorgeous you are. It was so great to have a day to just *Appreciate* your beauty. I really put my all into making sure I was able to capture just how beautiful you are in my eyes.

We went to Dave n' Busters and you somehow have the luck of a gambling monster. You won literally like every jackpot without even trying. It was so funny hanging out with Branden and Ktsai and seeing them freak out every time you won.

This Halloween, we made the genius decision to be sharks. We got so many people just singing us the baby shark song... WE HAD PARENTS ASKING US TO SING THE SONG. THEY'RE LIKE DO A LIL DANCE FOR MY LIL OL' JOHNNY HERE. HAHAHAA. Also one of the funniest things to me was when we were in that bar and that guy hit on you. He had no idea what you looked like. No idea what you were like. Just that you were a shark. I love it. WE ALSO HAD AMAZING TACOS. I WANT TO GO BACK THERE SOMETIME.

We got to have a final sleepover hangout with John and Tori before I moved out! Twas a time full of joy and jolly. We all exchanged presents and we all got great stuff! We also got the chance to take some fire pics with the Christmas tree downtown!

On this day, we hit up Enchant Christmas! We got to Ice Skate together on a chaotic track. There were children barreling through with no regards, and adults struggling to keep their footing. It was hilarious watching the difference in skill level. We even watched a kid knock a girl over just to proceed to skate away without saying sorry. Overall, a fun time! Lots of cute pics!! My only regret was eating that poutine thing.

I pack all my things and

On New Year's Eve, we went up to OC and got to eat some good Kbbq with your family and their friends! It was really good but I think I ate too much corn cheese... After, we went to Newport Beach and got to have Seaside donuts and watch the sunset!!! We also had a crappy corn dog AHHAAHAH. Also I put Newport in the gps and it took us to some random place instead of the beach. So this day was a lil' rollercoaster culminating in me bringing in the New Year while feeling extremely shitty HAHAHAHA. But at least we were commiserating.

We go to Disneyland again! This time, the weather is better, we are more experienced, and we know exactly what we want to do! We also don't push ourselves to the point of immense pain like the first time we were here. We also thought about getting you onto Space Mountain, however, after riding it again, I realized that I was indeed incorrect. You would NOT have liked that ride LOL. That day 2 at California Adventure was rough. This visit wasn't all great though because we tried to go to Coco Ichibanya after and we had the worst time LMAOOOO. You saw me get really angry fr fr for like the first time. Very, very vulnerable.

Will u be my valentine? heh
