Valentine's Day.

Everyone hates Valentine's Day, it seems. I've always enjoyed it for various reasons, but this Valentine's Day was by far the best one I've had. I took an eight hour drive up to Sacramento for my aunt's birthday on Saturday, which was fun. On Sunday morning (Valentine's Day) I drove three hours to San Francisco to see my girlfriend for the first time in two weeks or so. We took a bus to the beach, got chips and salsa at a little restaurant nearby, and walked along the shore while she took pictures of me with her new camera (which is actually an old camera that she bought for a hundred bucks). We went and strolled around Golden Gate Park, admiring the scenery, being generally cute together, etc.
At about 5:00PM we went to the Beach Chalet, which we had reservations for, and ate a huge meal (calamari, clam chowder, a very fancy burger, whatever she got, etc). We then went on a long trek back to the bus stop, then back to her apartment where we exchanged gifts. She got me the new John Mayer CD, a book, and she had written me a little story in the card she got me. Being infinitely cheaper than her, my gift was a haiku that had two different endings. It was meant to be silly, of course; No one really takes haiku's seriously. I paid for dinner and made the trip to go see her, so I didn't feel too bad.
I left the next morning. I wont be seeing her again till late March or early April when she comes down for Spring Break.
There's a little bit more to the story, but I'd rather not have the mods jump down my throat for posting inappropriate material. I'll leave that to the imagination. ;)
GOOD NEWS: I'm enrolled in badminton and French 2 so far. Hopefully I get speech and English tomorrow, but we'll see. As soon as I post this blog I'm going to go visit a small restaurant in the hopes that they'll hire me.
Namaste,
Obtaurian
