Loveliest Moment in 2008

I made this blog before the end of 2008 so that I could remember this event when 2009 comes.

My loveliest moment in 2008 is of course, when I am with someone that I love and also like. Love and like are not similar in meaning. You could love someone but dislike him/her like my mom. I could like someone but not love him/her like my favorite actress Angelina Jolie.

The occasion is during the closing night of our founder's celebration. I asked her out that night. I said that we would watch the fireworks display that night. Luckily, she accepted my invitation. We went to dinner together but I ate dinner already before we met. The reason why ate dinner ahead of her is because I was not sure that I could go out with her tonight. I texted her that morning and she replied on the evening. With long hours of waiting, I thought that she can't go out. But, fortunately, my thoughts were wrong. We went to dinner and I still even ate dinner for the second time. Another reason that I ate dinner ahead of her so that I would not buy a lot of food. I eat a lot. So, to save money, I ate ahead and save up the money to treat her and order a little for myself. Fortunately too, she paid her own food. But, I kind of fell guilty at it so I decided to treat her later that night. We have a fun conversation that night. And, for the first time, I felt that the girl is comfortable in conversing with me. She, by the way, do all the talking while me, on the other hand, do the listening. And it is quite ironic on my part for I am a talkative fellow. I usually talk lots of things. But on this night, I was the listener and a good one too. She told me before we ate for dinner that she will be with her friends later that night to see the fireworks. And, I was expecting that by the time she will be with her friends, I would leave her already. So, I made the best out of our time together. We went to different stalls. We visited some displaying booths. We watched a wall-climbing contest. And then, I bought her an ice creme for she said that that is her favorite. And while eating our ice creme, we watched the fireworks display. And then, it is about time for her to go with her friends. I was about to say good bye to her but she asked me to join her with her friends too. So, happily, I joined them. She introduced me to everyone of her friends and I just forgot their names. We were together after the fireworks display for we watched a band in the stage. A band that students are playing the instruments and singing. When the celebration is over, we said our good byes.

And that is the loveliest moment in life. And for me, that was the best date ever in my life so far.
