Valentines day
OKAY. SO TELL ME WHY. I WOKE UP. AND THIS WOMAN. THIS BEAUIFTFUL WOMAN. SHE MADE ME A BIG ASS BREAKFAST AND GOT ME A TEDDY WITH MY NAME ON IT WITH GLASSES. I LOVE HER SO MUCH.
See my plans were later on that day for valentines but I didn't expect her to love bomb me 9 in the morning haha. She even got me starbucks after my exam too. We havent really taken valentines day too seriously since our Junior year of higschool. I mean we still go out for dinner like every other couple but THIS YEAR she surpized me and now I feel a little bad that I didnt do as much. Around sunset I took her to Browns Island and we had a picnic. She said she loved it but like she SPOILED me all day. NOW I have the urge to spoil her but I wanna catch her off guard. In summary, I have the best girlfriend in the world and I am helplessly in love with her lol.

Movie Night
Brooke came up with an idea that we should have a movie night. We decided to do it at Nox’s place since he didn't want to leave his siblings alone on a friday night. We went for the oldies because why not, first we watched Jeepers Creepers 2. Which honestly gave us a good laugh, the concept is horrifying the characters make the movie much more comical than it needs to be. Gave a few scares to the kids, I think thats when we all realized the twins, Jayden and Jordyn, were not fond of scary movies.

Picnic?
For the past few weeks, I guess I've made a little group of friends. Me, Brooke, Payton, Nox and Kirean. We've been hanging out almost every week, of course everyone schedules everyone can make it to EVERY hangout, but yesterday everyone had that opportunity. Brooke's friend, Nox, the one with purple dyed hair, decided to hold a picnic at Libby Hill Park. It wasn't too early in the day around 11am, brunch hours I guess. We we're the last to arrive, and everything was so peaceful. Kieran has brought the drinks, teas and lemonades with a singular bottle of champagne. Payton brought cupcakes and fruit and we brought the chips, plates and napkins. While Nox made us Catalinas, Banh mi, spinach dip and salad. To be honest, that was the most fun I've had in a while. We took a few photos so I'll post them here for memory. Signing out!

.
Personally, hanging out with my co-workers isn't really fun to me. I tend to avoid and decline work parties often, in the most kind way of course. Most of the other interns are way older than me, and for some seeing a 20 year old accomplish more in a year than them as they’re reaching their mid-life can be disheartening. Yet there I was, at a bar on brookland park boulevard.
“Goodness John, maybe if you kept your pants on your wife wouldn't be shoving her head in your ass.” Michael laughed as John downed another bottle of hennessy. I snickered to myself watching Michael start to wheeze as Amy put her hand on John's shoulder.
“Michaels got a point there, you dug your grave mate. Now you got to lie in it.” Amy sighed, patting his shoulder as John groaned, laying back against the bar island. I rolled my eyes at the conversation. My co-workers and I decided to grab a drink tonight to have a bit of fun. I took a sip of my beer as I watched Michael beginning to wheeze off his drunk laughter.
“Well shit, A man needs a break sometimes. I’m not going to lie to you that ass was just calling to me. I never touched a fatter ass than that one. I'll tell you that much. Michael burst out laughing hysterically on the verge of tears. Amy rolled her eyes, taking a sip of her Margarita, disappointment apparent on her face as she whispered towards me.
“I really don't understand this guy sometimes, I’ll take a wife that loves me over a fresh piece of ass anyday,” she scoffed as she watched him down another drink. I shook my head, feeling my phone buzz. I looked down at the screen seeing Brooke’s photo. I hummed opening her text as I responded to Amy,
“I guess some people don't know how much they have until they lose it.”

Christmas Mishap
For Christmas we ended up going back to California for a few days. My parents suggested that Brooke's family should come over for the day, since they haven't seen each other in a while. I was excited about the idea, Brooke was not. Not because she doesn't like my moms no, it's because this will be the first time they meet her parents.
We've been dating for a little over 4 years now, so everyone had the chance to meet each other. Bruce has known my mothers for a very long time and my parents do like Bruce, but they've never meet their parents, and neither have I. Brooke's parents are often out in Europe doing business so for a better part of Brooke's life, Bruce has raised her and is still raising her little brother. However her parents decide that after 5 years of facetime that they'll spend Christmas with their children. Brooke told me that her parents were not the most likable people, she described them as arrogantly, snooty and close-minded. Upon meeting them Bruce also didn't look too keen. Her mother is a beautiful lady, she really does take the title as a model, loose curls past her shoulders and her eyes a dark shade of orange. Her father is a very..big guy. I think he was around 6'3? Broad shoulders and a bit of a beard, his eyes were a light shade of brown, and his hair an auburn tone. When they spoke, it was apparent that they were from the UK.
We got picked up by her parents at the airport, Zoey(Bruce's Wife) was suppose to come get us but her parents insisted that they'll come get us. The mood in the car was very-awkward. After about 10 minutes of driving Brook's mom, Mrs Angela Dick, decided to ask me about my myself. I told her about my family. I hopped from country to country with my parents before settling down in California where I met Brooke, talked about my hobbies and interests before her dad chimed in mentioning what I want to Pursue career wise. I told them about my studies to become a surgeon. Told them how hard I've been working and the reason I want to become one because my parents are both in the medical field. When he asked me what they did, I felt Brooke's eyes glare into me, at first I figured it was because she was afraid that they might come off as classist, however, I soon found out that..was not the case.
"Well my mama is a Pediatrician and my mom is a Gynecologist." I said casually. To which the air got cold and there was a pause of silence.
"Your mother is a Pediatrician and a Gynecologist?" Her mother asked, tone clearly confused. To which I awkwardly laughed and shook my head,
"Uhm no, I have two moms." Silence again before an “oh” left her mouth.
“That's..interesting!.. Definitely something you don't see everyday,” a small smile appeared on her face, as her eyes darted to Brooke who didn't even give her a glance.
“I was wondering about the pink in your hair, but I guess that explains it. You’re one of those um- lgbt's? Right?”
"..uh no. I mean, I'm straight. My parents are lesbian if that's what you mean," I commented on the situation becoming apparent. Later on after the Christmas dinner I asked Brooke if her parents are homophobic and she gave me an odd answer. To sum it up, they're confused on how everything works but they're not against it? It's just weird to them, which I didn't really know what to think of it being that Brooke herself is pansexual.
The rest of the car ride went by with conversation revolving around Brooke and school. Talking about past memories back when Brooke lived with her parents, back then she was about 9? 10? I forget what age she left London to live with Bruce. From the way they talked about it, it seemed like she was still a kid, not even in her teens.
When we arrived at her Brother's, the family reunion was less than heartwarming. Bryce the youngest opened the door. His smile struggled to stay up on his face. Zoey slowly came up behind him with a smile saying her hellos. After everyone had said their greetings, we began to get ready for the day. It was around 7am, and we had 3 hours to get ready.
When we got to my parents, as always my mom welcomed everyone with open arms. My moms give Brooke and I a tight hug asking us how we've been. Gathering in the living room everyone began to talk amongst themselves. Mama being the person she is, decided to introduce herself first. Of course, I'm aware she knows about Brooke's dislike of her parents and I can't help but notice some malice to get introduced.
"Richard and Angela, yes? It's great to finally meet you!"
The dinner went actually quite nice, everything was sunshine and lollipops up until the end. Where Brook’s mom mentions that my parents did a good job raising me on the fact that I have no father figure in my life-
That shit went south and my mama got pissed- I won't go into detail about it but her parents ended up leaving the next day from a hotel. Though everyone was quite irritated in the situation, my mom and mama didn't really dwell on it as much as Bruce did. II think that’s the most I heard him apologize in all the time I’ve known him. Of course it wasn't his fault, but I can understand being embarrassed of their actions.
This may be oversharing just a little, but this was sort of the only crazy thing that happened over winter break. SO might as well note it? Idk.
