I thought, since this is my first post, I should tell a little bit about Aaron and I's history. I knew of Aaron from school, but I never had really thought anything of him. My best friend Amy had just moved out here and I wanted to introduce her to some of my friends. We just happened to go over to Aaron's house and that was the first time I had really talked to him. He was crazy, but lots of fun, so we hung out every now and then after that. I was going for a run one night and decided to stop by his house on my way home. I honestly wasn't thinking anything of it. I just wanted to be friends. I mean, any of you who have met Aaron would know how entertaining and fun he is to be with. We talked for a minute and he asked me if I wanted a ride home on his moped. Of course I did so we went over to my house. One thing we always joke about is how Aaron would do a break check while I was on the back so that I would hold him tighter. That's Aaron Bobik for ya. When we got back to my house, me and my roomate Amy started talking about a school dance that was coming up. It was called "Winter Ball" and it was going to be on the Star of Honolulu cruiseship. We thought it would be fun to go with a bunch of friends. There was actually someone I was suppose to kind of go with, but I didn't want to go with him AT ALL, so I got Aaron to go with me instead. (I just told the other guy that I had already promised Aaron) Some might say that's mean but you gotta to what you gotta do... right? Anyways, that was it. We were going to the dance together. The dance was that Saturday. We hung out quit a bit that week. I love it because we would go running together or play tennis. I remember the night before the dance we went to a volleyball game that one of his friends from Newbury Park was playing in. It wasn't until that night when I realized that I might acutally have a crush on this guy. Aaron although has a different opinion. He thinks I wanted him since the first day we hung out. WHATEVER! So we went to the dance together with a few other couples. We had alot of fun. I still remember when he held my hand for the first time that night. He also tried to kiss me... figures. We couldn't have had a better first date. The next day, Aaron called me again and asked if I wanted to hang out. This time, he took me to Kawela Bay with a few of his other friends. We actually made torches to take with us for when we went through the woods to get to the ocean. This is where it all started... and i guess we all know what happened next!
Aaron had gone home for the spring and summer semesters, while I had planned on staying in Hawaii for spring and summer. We did manage to plan a trip to see each other in June. Aaron had actually come up to Washington for the weekend while I was visiting my family, and then I went to California for a week after that. When Aaron was up in Washington, we ran a 5K race with my mom and sisters, I showed him Deception Pass Bridge, and took him to Seattle. While I was visiting Aaron in California, he had planned something fun to do for everyday that I was there. Disneyland was the best! Since Aaron only lives 15 minutes from there, we got to go twice that week. The summer firework show was awesome! Aarons grandparents live on Balboa Penninsula, so we would ride our beach cruisers to the ferry, and then rode to their house. It was right on the beach. Aaron introduced me to the beach game SmAsHbAlL. You have two paddles and hit a ball back and forth. We got 100 hits that week. Later on our honeymoon though, we made 500 hits. We spent alot of time at the beach. Going to Rosarito Mexico was one of my favorite days. It takes about an hour and a half to get down there from where Aaron lives. We have a friend named Pam who lives there and she invited us to come down and hang out. She lives right on the ocean. One of my favorite parts about going to Mexico was hearing Aaron talk in spanish. Since I was there for the 4th of July, we went to a family friends house who lived in the Hills of Newport. Aaron's mom was actually a nurse for Clint who lives there. We could see almost every firework show because we were so high up. The week went by way too fast. I did not want to leave, but I had to go back to Hawaii. I had planned to be an EFY counselor and my little sister was coming out for it. It hadn't even been a week that I had been home before we decided that we wanted to spend the rest of the summer together. After EFY was over, I went right back to California...
