Reminiscent of a Wonderful Life and Dream
Some people have been asking me to keep writing about my past experiences in my first and only real relationship of my life and I decided that I’d give these people the respect for their wishes. This is going to be a very long post, so please, if long posts annoy or frustrate you don’t take this to heart or better yet, just move past it and don’t read it :). I only write this to inspire people of a time when true love did exist in my life, and to give people hope to experience it for themselves.
This is the story of the second time ever I flew down to visit my former girlfriend and the only girl that I ever loved. This magical time took place May 24 to June 11, 2006. It was the start of one of the most amazing summer vacations that I have ever had in my entire life at the time, because there were more wonderful summer vacations to come. I was telling someone when I was about to write this for them that the details might be strained compared to the first time I’ve ever visited her, as I stayed a good three weeks with her, but I can remember the things that matter the most. With that said, I bid you greetings once more into my fondest memories..
May 24, 2006
I remember this day pretty well. My flight that was connecting in Atlanta would leave at 8am in the morning. I couldn’t sleep that night even though my mom and Brittany were pressuring me to go to sleep so I wouldn’t be exhausted, but to tell you the truth a lack of sleep never has bothered me. I got up at 5 am that morning and started packing and getting ready. Earlier in the year, around spring break, I bought a duck for her that was about 2 feet long after Easter. It was enormous and I couldn’t wait to see the look on her face when I gave it to her. I decided when I started to pack that duck into my duffel bag that I wanted to make it a tradition that every time I would see her I would get her some sort of duck item because she loved them. I was also excited because this time I would be stayed with her for three whole weeks; three weeks of being with just the love of my life, always with each other, by each other, seeing each other after being denied of each other for five months. She was looking forward to me coming down to visit her so badly, especially because of the fact I was going with her and her family to Daytona Beach in Florida. I thought it was so amazing in the first place that they were so willing to take me in and on a vacation with them and they hardly knew me, but at the same time they did know me and how I was.
As I started getting my suitcase ready I was getting even more and more exited because I actually was having to pack a suitcase because I had to bring enough things for three weeks. If you can’t tell how excited I was to be spending three weeks just with her, I’m sure you can by now. My stepdad and I headed off for the airport and I couldn’t be any more anxious. I was wanting to fall back asleep in the car, and I think I might have nodded off every now and then, but there was something in me that I couldn’t just fall asleep. Once I got to the airport, my step dad helped me check my suitcase and my duffel bag since at this point and time, two bags were allowed to be checked. I still had to put my backpack through security, but I was fine with that. My step dad and I said good bye because he had to take the train from the airport and head into NYC to go to work, which was pretty convenient.
Once I got through security I rushed to my gate. I don’t know why, even though I always have enough time, I always find myself rushing to my gate as fast as I possibly can. Once I got there, I settled down in a seat and I took out my laptop and tried to get on the internet or give myself something to do. I started playing Super Smash Brothers on the emulator I had downloaded from college to keep myself busy there. It got old pretty fast due to the fact that I was way too excited to concentrate on anything else but seeing the love of my life. Since this was a weekday I was arriving on, she was still in school at this point. Her mom was going to pick me up at the airport and we would go pick her up at school after she picked me up at the airport. I couldn’t wait because I had never seen her school before and I was really excited to just experience one more part of her life.
Eventually I boarded on the plane and I can’t quite remember what sort of seat I had. I either was too into the fact that I was on the plane, or nothing significant happend, which is most likely a combination of the two. Now that I seriously was just thinking about it, I remember it quite vividly. I had a single seat and right by my seat was a little TV. I had never seen a TV on a plane before, at least recently. The last time I had flown on a plane was in December but those were smaller planes. This plane was a pretty good sized jet since it was leaving from Newark, NJ and going to Atlanta, GA. When we took off I remember watching the TV, I think they would play Animal Planet and America’s Funniest Animals was on so I’d watch that. It would flip back and forth between the show and during when time would come for a commercial, they would show the flight path of the plane and the ETA for Atlanta. It was a real enjoyable flight, I had packed a bagel for the flight from home and I asked the stewardess for some orange juice and I was pretty satisfied. Given, I probably had a really goofy smile on my face when I was eating my bagel beacuse I was just so happy to almost be in her presence again after 5 long, grueling months away from her at college.
We landed in Atlanta and I was almost immediately overwhelmed. The airport was enormous, but they said on the plane where the connecting flight was and all I made sure was to follow signs that had been posted all over. While walking to the gate, I called home to let my mom know that I had landed all right and I was doing just fine. After my chat with her, I still walked to my next gate and I passed by a bunch of little monorails that existed throughout the airport and I just thought to myself “this place is that big to require trains like that?” It was amazing, and on top of all that I felt incredibly safe. There were people in army camoflauge everywhere so I wasn’t afraid if something were to happen or whatnot.
Once I got to my gate, I sat down happily in my seat and I gave Brittany’s mom a call. At this point it was around 11 am when I called and I felt bad because I knew that her dad was probably sleeping since he works during the night. Her mom picked up and it was so nice to be able to talk with her and I was so excited, and funny enough so was she. She continously said that she “couldn’t wait to see her son again” and that she’s missed having me around so much. She said that everyone was excited to see me, especially Brittany’s grandmothers.
After our phone call, I tried playing around on my laptop again. The real reason why I was bringing it down with me was because I had downloaded a lot of movies that both of us had never seen and wanted to see so we decided to watch them together. The movies included V for Vendetta, Anchorman, The Notebook and other such movies. Oh boy, wait till I tell you all about when we watched The Notebook, I’ll just leave it at that for now. I put my laptop away after a while because I just didn’t really have a need for it. My next flight would leave around 1pm so I had a lot of time to kill since it was around 11:30 am. I can’t really quite remember what I did all that time, I think all I did was listen to my iPod, especially of course to the Red Hot Chili Peppers since they always reminded me now of the first time I went down to see her so I always wanted to have that feeling when I’d fly to see her.
Eventually it came time for me to get on that next plane. My heart was racing and I can still remember how awkwardly wide I was smiling when I handed the gate manager my boarding pass. I walked down that long corridor to the plane and it was about the same size plane that I had taken from Albany to Charlotte that first time. Again I was in a single row because I remember when we finally took off I was able to look down at Atlanta. It was great how I got a chance to see all around there because I never had been to Atlanta before and I was able to see a lot of cool things like a museum and I think I saw a college campus and there were a lot of Piggly Wigglys. My dad would always make a joke about how when I’d go down to see Brittany he’d ask me to pick him up something from Piggly Wiggly just because he can say that he has something from that store, yeah, corny, I know but that’s my dad for you. Before we took off and when we were taxiing on the runway, the stewardess announced that she would like to thank all the military personnel on board today and thank them for serving our country. We all clapped and a woman across the isle from me asked me if I was in the service and I told her that I wasn’t and I go to college in NY. She asked me what I was doing all the way down here and I told her that I was visiting my girlfriend and she gave me a wide smile and told me that I was a very considerate young man to take it into my own hands to come down and spend time with someone that means so much to me. I told her that she meant the world to me and she just grinned and said that she could see it in my eyes. Things like that made me feel so secure with my relationship, just when some random person could see how much love I had for this girl and that would just be one of many circumstances that would occur throughout our relationship just like that.
As the plane flew on I continued to listen to my iPod. I noticed all around there were these really straight lines that would cut through the forests in the landscape. I didn’t really know what it could have been except for roads, but there were no roads. Eventually I would find out that they were transformer power lines coming from various power plants and whatnot from her dad. Before I knew it, a 40 minute plane ride had passed and we were getting ready to land. I was so anxious just to get off that plane and see her mom I was about to burst. When we landed it was about the greatest thing ever, except for the walk outside. I was wearing a black shirt that I had bought from Aeropostale a week earlier just for seeing Brittany and I don’t think that was a smart choice, but it really wasn’t too bad. When I was exiting the plane the stewardess said “Enjoy your stay in Augusta!” and I chuckled and said to her “You don’t even know how true that statement right there is.”
I stepped off the plane into the hot Georgia summer weather and I immediately felt at home. I love the warm weather and I guess it might be due to my heritage. When exiting the plane, it put you directly on the tarmac so you had to walk directly up a ramp to get inside the airport. Once I was inside I didn’t really know where to go, but I immediately saw Brittany’s mom standing there all the way in the distance with her big ‘ol cup of something to drink. She has a big cup of soda usually because she smokes a lot and it makes her thirsty so she always carries something to drink. When I saw her my face immediately lit up and I walked over to my “mom” and she just squealed basically and hugged me so tight. She told me she was so glad to see me and that she knows someone else is going to be just as glad. We laughed and then we started heading to go get my luggage.
It took a while for the conveyerbelt to activate, but eventually I was able to pull my suitcase and duffle bag off the carousel and put them by the door. Mom said she would go pull up the car so I wouldn’t have to walk all the way in the heat and eventually she did and I put my things in the trunk. I sat up in the front seat and she told me that I should probably call my mom and let her know I got there all right, so I did. Brittany’s mom told me she wanted me to thank my mom for her for letting me come down, and I did but when I said that my mom just started feeling all guilty because they would be taking care of me and feeding me and she felt bad because they basically had another mouth to feed now. Brittany’s mom told her not to worry about that because it really isn’t a big deal since they usually make a lot of food anyway.
Once I got off the phone with my mom, Brittany’s mom and I started talking about Daytona. I told her how much I appreciated her taking me along and everything and she said “well you’re a part of the family and you’ve been working so hard in college lately that you deserve a vacation.” She also told me they, and especially Brittany, had picked out a beach towel for me, and it was a good thing because I didn’t pack one! Her mom said that I shouldn’t let Brittany’s dad know because he doesn’t know she bought it and he might get a little upset and I said all right and we both sort of laughed about it. She asked me if I wanted to go home first and drop off my stuff or we could just go and pick up the girls first and I said it’d be all right if we pick up Brittany and her sister from school first.
We drove to Amber’s school first because her school lets out a little bit before Brittany’s. Her mom parked underneath some trees so it wouldn’t be so hot and she looked around scandelously and said “I feel like a youngin, lookin around to see if anyones there so I can have a smoke!” I thought it was kinda funny, but at the same time sort of sad because she was so dependent on them and this wouldn’t change as long as I’d know her. She told me to remind her to call Brittany’s dad at 3 to wake him up to start cooking dinner. Dinner was going to be hot dogs, burgers and mac and cheese and I couldn’t wait because those were probably my favorite things.
Eventually around 3 came and mom had tried calling the house several times, but Bill, Brittany’s dad, didn’t pick up. It wound up he was taking a shower, but Brittany’s mom was getting worried because she didn’t want something to happen to him. A little while later after that Amber came up to the car and I said hey to her and asked her if she missed me, kidding around of course. She just glared at me and sort of smirked and yeah, she’s always like that but I think she started warming up to me. I let her sit in the front and I sat in the back because now we were ready to go pick Brittany up.
We started driving towards Brittany’s school and I was so happy, my heart was racing. Sitting against the seat started to make my back sort of sweaty, more damp than anything since it was warm and I was nervous, hah nice combination right? We crossed over a rail road and her school came up on the left. We pulled up into the parking lot and I tried desperately to look for her. All of the sudden I see this beautiful girl walking up with two tiny asian girls to her side and I laughed and knew that was her. I started getting out of the car and she was still about 50 feet away and all of the sudden this guy just came out of nowhere and hugged her and picked her up a bit. Needless to say getting out of the car and seeing that sort of caught me off guard and I kinda tripped a little, but I tried to not care to much about it because there she was. She and her two friends Alicia and Diana came up to me and she introduced me to them. Diana said it was nice to finally put a face to the.. text box and we all laughed.
Eventually they had to go and I took Brittany’s backpack and tossed it in the trunk for her and she told her mom she was going to take me to the art building to pick up some artwork that she had wanted to get back since it was the end of the year. With that said she turned around and gave me the biggest hug. I felt a little bad because she probably felt how damp my back was, but I didn’t care. The love of my life was hugging me and I was hugging her and it was amazing. She took my hand so tightly and started to lead us to the art building. We had to cross a little crosswalk with a crossing guard and it was funny because on the other side was one of her friends, Brianna, who had been with Brittany the first time I saw her in the airport. When we were crossing we basically crossed paths with her and she squealed and she passed by us but then changed her mind and came back over and she said “Give me a hug!” I felt awkward about it because Brittany was right there, but it was her friend so I gave her a quick one. She said then “Oh now I wish Scott were here!” because that is her boyfriend. Brianna then left for her car and Brittany continued to lead me to the art building while stopping and saying hello to some of her friends and introducing me as “this is my boyfriend Evan!” which would make me swell with pride. I loved the fact that she wanted to show me off to her friends and I just loved being able to hold her hand while she did it.
She took me into the art building and up some stairs and showed me her little bench where she worked. I was amazed at how.. awesome it was. It was so not like I was expecting from her descriptions and I loved being able to see something new that was such an inegral part in her life. She took me back downstairs and started to pack up her portfolio. I took it for her and she kept telling me she didn’t want me to do it, but I carried it for her anyway and she’d act all pissed off at me while I’d just laugh and then we would both laugh. We got back to the car and I put it in the trunk and we both got into the back seat of the car. She snuggled right up to me and she started talking about school and what had happend that day. I stopped her while she was talking for a bit becuase I just had to say “I love you” and give her a kiss before I let any more time pass without saying it. Her eyes almost teared up when I did that and she told me “I love you too, Evan” and returned a kiss to me and it was so amazing being able to feel her soft, warm lips against mine again after 5 long months. I told her it was great to actually being able to hear her talk about her day at school right to my face and it just made me listen even more. She told me about her final exam in literature and latin that she had that day and was just glad it was over. She still had algebra and chemistry to take and I told her I would be more than happy to help her with both of those subjects since I just got done taking calculus II with an A and well my major was Biochemistry after all. Her face lit up when I said that I’d help her study and she gave me the biggest hug and she said she would love that, but she said she didn’t want to spend a lot of time studying because I was here now. I told her that I wanted her to focus on her work for now and do her best for the time being so she didn’t have to feel guilty about not doing as well so we can fully enjoy our time together and she smiled and gave me a kiss telling me how sweet and considerate I was for acting this way.
I’m getting a little sleepy right now so I think that I’m going to continue the story tomorrow as an edit :) I hope whoever read this enjoys it so far, as there is a whole three weeks worth of memories to write about. I hope so far that if someone is feeling really down and read this, maybe I was able to give a little light to their life and situation.

A little while later after that Amber came up to the car and I said hey to her and asked her if she missed me, kidding around of course. She just glared at me and sort of smirked and yeah, she’s always like that but I think she started warming up to me. I let her sit in the front and I sat in the back because now we were ready to go pick Brittany up.
We started driving towards Brittany’s school and I was so happy, my heart was racing. Sitting against the seat started to make my back sort of sweaty, more damp than anything since it was warm and I was nervous, hah nice combination right? We crossed over a rail road and her school came up on the left. We pulled up into the parking lot and I tried desperately to look for her. All of the sudden I see this beautiful girl walking up with two tiny asian girls to her side and I laughed and knew that was her. I started getting out of the car and she was still about 50 feet away and all of the sudden this guy just came out of nowhere and hugged her and picked her up a bit. Needless to say getting out of the car and seeing that sort of caught me off guard and I kinda tripped a little, but I tried to not care to much about it because there she was. She and her two friends Alicia and Diana came up to me and she introduced me to them. Diana said it was nice to finally put a face to the.. text box and we all laughed.
Eventually they had to go and I took Brittany’s backpack and tossed it in the trunk for her and she told her mom she was going to take me to the art building to pick up some artwork that she had wanted to get back since it was the end of the year. With that said she turned around and gave me the biggest hug. I felt a little bad because she probably felt how damp my back was, but I didn’t care. The love of my life was hugging me and I was hugging her and it was amazing. She took my hand so tightly and started to lead us to the art building. We had to cross a little crosswalk with a crossing guard and it was funny because on the other side was one of her friends, Brianna, who had been with Brittany the first time I saw her in the airport. When we were crossing we basically crossed paths with her and she squealed and she passed by us but then changed her mind and came back over and she said “Give me a hug!” I felt awkward about it because Brittany was right there, but it was her friend so I gave her a quick one. She said then “Oh now I wish Scott were here!” because that is her boyfriend. Brianna then left for her car and Brittany continued to lead me to the art building while stopping and saying hello to some of her friends and introducing me as “this is my boyfriend Evan!” which would make me swell with pride. I loved the fact that she wanted to show me off to her friends and I just loved being able to hold her hand while she did it.
She took me into the art building and up some stairs and showed me her little bench where she worked. I was amazed at how.. awesome it was. It was so not like I was expecting from her descriptions and I loved being able to see something new that was such an inegral part in her life. She took me back downstairs and started to pack up her portfolio. I took it for her and she kept telling me she didn’t want me to do it, but I carried it for her anyway and she’d act all pissed off at me while I’d just laugh and then we would both laugh. We got back to the car and I put it in the trunk and we both got into the back seat of the car. She snuggled right up to me and she started talking about school and what had happend that day. I stopped her while she was talking for a bit becuase I just had to say “I love you” and give her a kiss before I let any more time pass without saying it. Her eyes almost teared up when I did that and she told me “I love you too, Evan” and returned a kiss to me and it was so amazing being able to feel her soft, warm lips against mine again after 5 long months. I told her it was great to actually being able to hear her talk about her day at school right to my face and it just made me listen even more. She told me about her final exam in literature and latin that she had that day and was just glad it was over. She still had algebra and chemistry to take and I told her I would be more than happy to help her with both of those subjects since I just got done taking calculus II with an A and well my major was Biochemistry after all. Her face lit up when I said that I’d help her study and she gave me the biggest hug and she said she would love that, but she said she didn’t want to spend a lot of time studying because I was here now. I told her that I wanted her to focus on her work for now and do her best for the time being so she didn’t have to feel guilty about not doing as well so we can fully enjoy our time together and she smiled and gave me a kiss telling me how sweet and considerate I was for acting this way.
I’m getting a little sleepy right now so I think that I’m going to continue the story tomorrow as an edit :) I hope whoever read this enjoys it so far, as there is a whole three weeks worth of memories to write about. I hope so far that if someone is feeling really down and read this, maybe I was able to give a little light to their life and situation.
