most memorable moment...

I recently got the form for my senior yearbook comments. One of the questions it asked was what my most memorable moments in high school were. I thought and thought and eventually realized that i really couldn't put my most memorable moments in the yearbook for various reasons. So, i ended up just writing something stupid.

The moment that i truly remember the most is when i took my girlfriend (no names, thats one of my new rules for this blog) on a date in Laguna Beach. She's now my ex-girlfriend, but at the time she was my girlfriend (this was like 2 weeks ago). I picked her up from her house at 5:30 and we drove to Laguna Beach. I parked the car accross the street formt he restaurant i had made reservations at and we walked to the sand at Main Beach. It was still awhile before the time i had made the reservation so we walked on the beach for awhile, eventually sitting on the wooden walkway, dangling out feet over the sand. We sat there talking and playing with the sand with out feet. After awhile we went to dinner.

OK, im going to skip to the part that i actually meant as my most memorable moment.

After dinner we drove to Treasure Island (one of the beaches througout Laguna Beach) and we walked down to the sand. We made our way to a spot on the sand where we sat down and watched the waves rise and fall. It was a bit chilly so i wrapped the blanket i had brought around my girlfriend, my arm also around her. We sat there for awhle, just chatting and holding hands. Every once in awhile i would put my head to hers, or she would lean her head against me. eventually we were sitting so close together that as we talked i leaned my cheek against hers and i closed my eyes to savor the moment. We talked for awhile, about random things, one topic i remember was how the boats we saw out in the ocean seemed to be rising into the sky as they floated further out. It was so dark that we could not see the horizon so they truly looked as if they were flying away. We sat there and i held her close.

Eventually we stood up because sitting on sand can get sore after awhile. We stood on the beach and just held each other. we held each other as close as we could. I felt as if i never wanted this moment to end. Every once in awhile we could see a flash coming from the land side of the beach and couldnt figure out where it was coming from. One time however, i was looking at the land side and i saw that the flash was coming from these other people on the beach, seemingly taking pictures, odd huh. We just held each other and kissed for awhile... (this seems like a good place to end the story)
