Most epic story ever

Ok so lets face it, I watched a bunch of episodes of "How I met your mother" and now I can't sleep. So I am up finding different things to update on because I am cool like that! Well I have an awesome story to tell that happened to me earlier today. So I was driving home from school today about... 6:30ish and I was headed to another friends bridal shower when I had the greatest encounter ever.

I was getting off the 202 and going south toward gilbert road when all of a sudden this guy drove past me and he looked as if I had cut him off and he was giving me the "How dare you" face. Well, I was a little confused because that didn't happen at all. Well of course we got stopped at a Red light sitting next to each other awkwardly and I look over at him, I was hesitant at first because I didn't want him to flip me off. This has been occurring a lot lately. Well as I turned to look I noticed that he was staring at me and laughing and smiling. Of course I pretended I didn't realize what was going on and went on licking my ring pop and dancing in muh car. Well I saw him get on his cell phone and call someone as he was starting to drive away. Well all of a sudden he slowed down so I could catch up to him, and kept looking my direction. We then got stopped at the next light and he proceeded to show the sign of "Hey roll down your window". So I thought what the heck why not so I did and the first thing he says is,
"You are so beautiful."
"Thank you!"
"Are you married."
"I am not"
"I know this may sound weird, but, I think we should go on a date sometime."
(Mind you we are stopped at the red light on Gilbert and McKelips...In our own separate cars)
"eeeerrrr, I don't know(hahaha what?!?!), Are you LDS?"
"Sure am!"
Say what?!! haha so... yup I laughed said ok and pulled into a street. Of course I said to myself "Michelle, what the heck are you doing?! ha what if he is a psycho killer and you are pulling over? What are you thinking?!"
Welp, I pulled over and he walked to my window, knelt by my window and proceeded to tell me his name and a little about himself. I asked where he lived and what ward he was in, and I told him which ward I was in also. He told me he was a great cook, and played football.
He was laughing at me because I had a ring pop on my finger and that he totally figured I was Mormon. haha
He seemed like a really awesome guy. So when he asked, I did give him my number, and we went our separate ways... which actually happened to be the same way for a couple more miles.
He called me right then (to make sure I gave him the right number) and asked if i was free next week sometime. I told him I was dancing and teaching a lot but I would love to try and find a time to go on a date. So we are still figuring it out because he is busy also. but ya... Crazy right?!

bahahahahaha... I just can't believe that happened! haha. It was so amazing.
and I was so flattered!
If you have the man parts to do that of course I will say yes for a date. ha. wow.
So today my day consisted of:
-Doing laundry
-Lots of homework
-2 Bridal showers
-and one potential date with a guy I met while stopped at a red light.

ha I would say it was a very productive, successful day.

Perspective

Life is amazing at the moment.

Some may ask why and I could give a very long explanation,
But the simple answer.
One of my best friends comes home on Thursday.
Some may think I am crazy, other's my be confused as to why.
Again... I could give a very long explanation.
However I have a better Idea.

I met a man named Gene.
He gave me perspective on my life.
He is one of the most sincere men I have ever come in contact with.
He was once able to see and is now blind.
But,
He doesn't let it get him down.
We asked how he felt when he realize he was blind?
If he was sad or discouraged...
He said,
"No, I was relieved. I found an answer as to why it was so dark!"

I have been moved by him.

Someone else asked.
"Do you ever go through depression?"
His reply.
"Once, for about 20 min. Then I realized I wasn't happy so I stopped. It seemed to be worse, Why would anyone want that. So... I choose to be happy."

hmm...

A lot has happened in the last 2 years.
I have gone through the whole spectrum of emotion.
But I find that life is the greatest when
I
choose
to be happy, look at the positive side, see how I can help someone in need, see how I am able to serve and be an example to those around me.
I can do that.

So thanks to Gene I have a new perspective.
I have heard it before, of course, who doesn't want to be happy.
But I witnessed first hand that in the deepest darkest of times...
It's possible.

I will always appreciate Gene for that.
So I'm ready for Thursday to come.
To close a chapter in life and start another one.
I'm stoked.

Come what may and Love it :]
