Omgah!
I just got home from a GREAT weekend at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival! But before I blog about my weekend, I've been meaning to blog about this since Thursday, when it happened! :O
Phuc's been conjuring up a cool way to ask me out to Senior Ball for a while, and because we're so bad at keeping secrets from each other (at least I definitely am), he gave me a couple of hints (e.g., it required outside help, but no money, and that it'd happen at school. how mysterious!). I still couldn't guess what it was, though. D;!
So, Phuc and I have Theater together, and we came into class like regularly on Thursday. Since one of his hints was that it would happen before Spring Break, but because it was already Thursday and we had a field trip on Friday, I figured that it was impossible and he'd do it after Break! Miz Townsend dropped a, "Phuc, do you still want to...?" and he said, "I'll talk to you about it later," very grimly. I realized that she was one of his "contacts," but his emo voice gave me the impression that he was breaking the news that he wouldn't be able to execute his plans until after Break. D:
Then Ms. Townsend released us to rehearsal in the theater, when Chau and Brenda came in to interview me for Literary Art Magazine. I didn't remember sending Ms. Herburger my art, but since I sent her a lot of e-mails I figured that I probably just forgot about it and rolled with it. Chau and Brenda asked me about drawing, which I got HELLA into, spouting off whatnot about my tablet and trying to learn how to use Corel Painter and whatnot. After a while, Ashanti came out and asked me if I was coming inside, and I thought that Ms. Townsend was wondering where I was.
So Chau and Brenda brought me back in, when I came into the theater, and I entered to see the class completely still and quiet and smiling, and I just see a sign saying "C is for how cute you are," and I thought, "OMFG WUH IZ THIS, PHUC R U FOR REAL?"
Then this happened:
PS: In the beginning, I was reading them in my head when Ms. Townsend said, "Read them out loud!" so the class made me start over. XD And yes, at the end, when I am spinning around, I got lost and didn't know where to go, and so people had to reiterate that the signs had arrows pointing that-a-way.
And no, I cannot understand myself by the end of the video either. And Phuc says not to ask how "i" stands for "honest," but I didn't even notice because I was distracted with the whole "omfg i can't believe this is happening" feeling. xD. CUTIE.
I basically just DIED. Phuc jumped out and asked me to ball, and I died when I said yes and everyone applauded! Then we hugged each other and kissied, and I dug my face into his shoulder and cried.
Afterward, Shayla told me about how people cried watching me, and how sweet they all thought Phuc was! And I was just, "omg phuc is omgahhh crazy!" Periodically throughout our Oregon field trip, I would just replay Thursday in my head and tell Phuc how crazy he is. In Oregon, Ms. Townsend told me she felt bad for making me read them out loud because I "didn't even make it past the first letter." XD
After almost three and a half years, it amazes me that Phuc continues to find ways to absolutely blow me away. It was one of those rare moments that things felt like they were going in slow motion (i was really surprised that the video is only 48 seconds long, it felt like FOREVER) and I'm still half-convinced that it was all just a really wonderful dream, admittedly because it was just so unbelievably perfect and surreal.
And I agree, Phuc is probably the most perfect guy for me. Ever, ever.
