This last weekend was incredible, I can't even tell you. It kinda makes me wish that I had time to breathe today, in which case I would've written it all down. I didn't though so I'm left with leaving you this short message and then I will depart and you'll hear more later.
I took Kendall on a surprise trip this weekend. We saw the Goo Goo Dolls and Counting Crows in concert, and then we went swimming in a waterfall. I don't think I can describe to you how awesome it was. I really don't.
She loved it and that's what really made it awesome. To watch her face light up when I gave her the tickets, or when her favorite songs started during the concert. It was amazing.
Screw it, I'm just telling you what happened. I can sleep when I'm dead.
So the Goo Goo Dolls are one of her favorite bands ever. So I got these tickets a long time ago and I told her that we had something to do this Sunday but I wouldn't tell her what. So we started driving and I thought that she already knew that we were going to Atlanta so I decided to throw her off the path. There is this road that goes from 385 to 85 just before Greenville. It goes straight through Pelzer, South Carolina. Middle of ever loving nowhere.
So I asked her what she knew about Pelzer, she said, "Nothing..." I said, "That's the way that I like it." And drove on. I could tell now that she was really confused about what we were doing, and this was all working out just the way that I planned it. We pulled over for gas and I started pumping...
Side Note: A friend of hers, that I met, who goes to Tech, wrote on her wall about how a Goo concert was coming up and Kendall should come to Atlanta and spend the weekend. So I messaged her and told her the situation and to not tell Kendall anything about it. She agreed and ended up telling Kendall that the concert was sometime in September but was already sold out. Kendall had told me about the concert and then told me when she "found out" that it was sold out.
"I need for you to get out of the car." I said, keeping a straight face this whole time.
"Ummm... okay." She seemed nervous already, just what I wanted.
"We need to have a heart to heart, just go ahead and sit down on the back of the car."
She did so, but didn't say anything, I had her right where I wanted her. I sat down next to her.
"I just need to tell you, that I'm really, really sorry."
"Sorry for what?" Her voice had this sense of urgency, she really thought something was going wrong.
"Well, if I had known that you wanted to buy tickets to that Goo Goo Dolls concert so bad... then I wouldn't have already gotten four."
Her jaw dropped and I pulled out the tickets and handed them to her. She didn't say anything for awhile, she just laughed and smiled and couldn't believe it. It was the perfect reaction, what I had been hoping for, ever since I got the tickets.
So we went to the concert and it was unbelievable, just about everything that I had ever wanted a Goo concert to be for me. I couldn't believe that I was sharing it with this girl either. She was having the time of her life and I could tell. When the concert was finally over, we were walking out and she was holding my hand, but not just holding it, she was hanging on, it was like she couldn't be close enough to me, it felt good, really good.
It's funny to think about this stuff. I mean, who knows if me and Kendall will be together in a month, six months, a year, graduation, whenever. One thing that I can be sure of, is that I will remember the name Kendall Williamson forever. Not in like a creepy-that's-the-only-girl-I'll-ever-like way, just in the way that in such a short time, we've had such an impact on each other. Not that other couples don't, I mean, they do. It's just weird to think that I'll probably associate some things with Kendall for the rest of my life, just the way I do with Anna or whoever.
Anyways, so then I drove her up to north Georgia and took her behind a waterfall. I told her about going up to this place one time and she said how cool it was and how her family never did anything like that and she always wanted to. So I thought that I would oblige her and she loved it too. This weekend was such a success, I can't even describe it to you. In case I'm not getting through to you just how much fun she had, try this on for size.
Ever since we got back, her away message has been the exact same thing. All it says is, "you should be pretty jealous of me right now." She asked if I saw it last night, she wanted me to see it, she wanted me to know how much fun she had. So that made me feel pretty good, then when I was hanging out with her tonight she told me about Steph asking her about the away message.
She said that Steph asked if it was just about this weekend, or if it was something else. Kendall said, "It's just... well, it's just kinda about my life right now!"
Can I get a Touchdown Gamecocks?
So basically this weekend was awesome with her.
Oh yeah, did I mention that I drove all the way to Starkville, Mississippi and back in 24 hours and saw Jesse and Deez(twice)? No? I didn't say anything about that?
Oh well, I guess you can't mention everything. More to come on the Miss State trip later. Really now though, I need to go to sleep.
My boys are coming in 3 days. I need them, I'm not going to lie.
COUNTDOWN CHANGE! To my birthday!!!!
26 days till everything will feel like the movies and I'll bleed just to know I'm alive
