So I'm driving to school the other day and I pull into the little circle. There are parking spots all around the circle of flags and I was doing a lap around to see if there were any empty spots.
As I'm pulling around I see reverse lights and as she's reversing out she didn't pull out straight and totally scrapped on the car next to her. So I leave that spot and see one on the other side all the while looking back to see what the girl is going to do. I see her pull back into the spot, get out of the car, looks at the damage she did to the car, and then gets back into the car to leave. The little circle is one-way so she's going to drive by me so I decide to write down her license plate number. As she drives by me I realize that I know who the girl is. Awww crap, what do I do now?
I was running late to class so I go to class while I'm still debating what I'm going to do. The class is Leadership and Management and the lecture for the day was on "Making Ethical Decisions." Well isn't that appropriate? So I go tell the teacher my situation and she excuses me from class so that I can go take care of it.
I go back out to the little circle and write down the license plate of the other car too. So I have a few options: 1. Report her to security. 2. Talk to her about it. 3. Or do nothing at all. But #3 isn't an option now. So I decide to send her a text which went like this, "Hey I saw you hit that car, you did scratch it up pretty good and you didn't leave a note. I think you need to come back and atleast leave a note, they might not even care. It's the right thing to do." How do you think that sounded? I didn't want her to feel like a completely terrible person but at the same time she didn't do the right thing, sometimes we need others to help us make the right decision. Driving off was the easy way out, but not the right thing.
She texted back and said that she was planning on leaving a note, but she went home first to call her mom and ask her what she should do. Which I don't really think is what she was planning on doing. You can't just leave the scene and come back later and try to fix it. While I was sitting in class before I talked to my teacher I texted a few people asking for advice of what I should do. One friend of mine said that I was in a sucky position and that I should talk to her. A couple minutes later this friend of mine texted me back and said "Bo I totally know who the girl is that hit the car, she just texted me and told me the whole story." So my friend got both sides of the story.
So she ended up coming back and leaving a note on the car. I kinda wish that I didn't have to get involved but I witnessed it and I needed to do something. The whole "Making Ethical Decisions" topic in class got me off the fense. I think the girl feels dumb and thinks that I was judging her but whatever. I told her that I don't think she's a bad person and that it doesn't matter because the right thing has been done now. I haven't seen her yet, I wonder if it'll be awkward when I do, probabley.
I am Bo

B is for.........B-Date
So I've decided that I like dates, I think that I've known that but I might forget that I do sometimes. I've been hanging out with Jansen alot and I really like hanging out with her but I told her that I wanted to take her out on a date. What can I say, I like dates.
The first part of the date started when I went to her house between classes with a deck of cards. I had an idea of what I wanted to do but I needed the theme first. I pull out the deck of cards and start dropping cards on the ground and told her to tell me when to stop. She told me to stop and the card was the 2 of clubs...
Whatever card it would have been would have represented a letter. For example a '7' would represent a 'G' (the 7th letter in the alphabet). So in our case the 2 represents a 'B', now we have our theme. Everything that we're going to do on our date has to start with the letter B. I then pulled out 10-1 dollar bills and gave her 5 and told her that we would buy eachother something to exchange at the beginning of the date and it had to start with the letter B.
Later I picked her up and brought BLUE BALLOONS and she gave me a BEAR.
We first drove to the beach park by Chinaman's Hat where I had our first B activity. At the BEACH we BLEW BIG BUBBLES.
It took us a few tries to get the hang of it, well it took me alot of tries, her only a few and then I stole her method and had alot better luck. Chinaman's Hat and the Ko'olau mountains made for a good back drop don't you think?
My next plan was to go to this really good BRAZILIAN restaurant but when we arrived at the address that I got online it was no longer there. A Thai restaurant was in its place, and there's no B's in THAI. So we went to plan B, haha, get it, plan B. Anyways we decided to go to Bubba Gumps, somewhere we both hadn't been.
The waitress quizzed us on a few Forrest Gump trivia questions. I did pretty good until she stumped me on some random unknown fact on a second role in the movie that Sally Fields plays, I had no idea.
So we ordered onion rings, and then 2 entrees that we both would share, coconut shrimp and the seafood platter. We suited up in our BUBBA BIBS and went to town.
You can't go wrong with crab legs, lobster, mussles, clams, shrimp scampi, and drawn butter. I felt like I needed to wipe my mouth just now just thinking about it. So good.
We took a few random pictures at the Ala Moana mall on the way back to the car.
Jansen's jumping heel click.
And then mine.
From there we decided to take a BIG BUBBLE BATH together. Hold on, hold on, before anyone freaks out this activity we kind of stretched a little bit. It was more like a jacuzzi, alright it was a jacuzzi but we stayed in theme and I wore my BOARD shorts and she wore her BIKINI. We snuck in the marriot in Waikiki.
It was getting pretty late and we were getting tired so we drove back home, but don't worry I still have a few more B tricks up my sleeve. In the morning I picked her up and we had BANANA pancakes and BACON and later on that night we shared a BANANA split. Not too bad huh? Super fun time, super good food, and a SUPER cute girl. How could I go wrong?
FYI-B isn't the easiest letter to spell with your bodies. Especially when you're having complete strangers take the picture who probabley thought we were both crazy. But secretly they were really jealous of our BOMB B-Date.
