This is officially my last weekend at JMU as a freshman in college. so weird. I was expecting a weekend full of studying since I have my last two finals this coming week but those plans changed when I got a little surprise..But before I go into that, here is some background info.
I recently started dating a guy I dated in high school. He goes to West Point and is genuinely one of the best guys I know. and I'm not just saying that..Since we live 6ish hours apart, I don't get to see him very much but when I do see him, it's worth the wait. He is respectful and treats me like a princess.
I had talked to him on the phone friday night and he was saying how he tried to come down here and surprise me about a month earlier but I had gone home for the weekend. This weekend, he was already in Harrisburg, Pa visiting some family and he was only 2 hours away from me! I knew he was with his family and he wouldn't/couldn't come down here this weekend but I shouldn't have been so sure of myself..
Saturday morning, he called my best friend Kristen and planned the whole thing. He told me he was going to Gettysburg with his family for the day so I had no idea he was coming. Throughout the day, Kristen and Megan (my roommate) had been acting a little weird but nothing out of the ordinary so I didn't really suspect anything was going on. I had literally just gotten in bed to take a power nap when Kristen threw my door open and said she had a surprise for me. I figured it would be some sort of food or something #typical. And the next thing I knew, my wonderful boyfriend was standing in the doorway with flowers. I had to pick my jaw up off the ground and wipe the tears from my eyes before I really realized what was going on.
This is probably one of the best surprises ever. That afternoon, we walked around campus, found a bench on the quad, sat for hours, and just talked. It was seriously the best. He took me to a fancy restaurant in historic downtown for dinner and then we came back and watched a movie with Megan and Kristen. The night was perfect. I was with my two best girlfriends from school and my boyfriend. I am beyond blessed and so thankful for all the wonderful people in my life.
