An Unforgettable and Romantic Evening



            The date is November 7, 2014 and the time is 5:00 p.m. In this blog I will be describing two different locations, and will be discussing four individuals. The first is a White male whom is 20 years old; his name in the blog will be Sky. There was a Hispanic/ White female 19 years old; her name is Evil Eye. There was another Hispanic female 19 years old as well; her name for the blog is Jazzy J. Finally there was a Hispanic male, 20 years old and his name is Mack Daddy. The first location starts off in the student apartments complexes called chemise village. I notice that Sky and Jazzy J are talking about their evening plans; apparently Sky was asking her about advice because he was wanting to ask Evil Eye to be his girlfriend; and Jazzy J happened to be her roommate. She devised a plan and told him, so they bought kit kats, little post it notes, flowers, and chalk. She told him to write “Will you take the next step with me below the stairwell” she told him this spot has significance because it was the first place where they met and got to know each other. It is also clever because it’s at the bottom of a large stairwell. Finally he asked her “What else should I do?” She responds by telling him “Get the little kit-kats and write little notes on each of them. Afterwards place them each one stair case apart until you reach the bottom”. He completed his objective, which is when Jazzy J called Evil Eye to come and meet her outside. She asks Sky “you don’t mind if I record her expression do you?” He responds with of course not and smiles. Evil Eye finally walks out and starts picking up the candy until she reaches the bottom she finds Sky waiting at the bottom with flowers. He says to her “Evil Eye, Will you take the next step with me?” She responds almost in tears with a loud and happy “Yes”. Finally afterwards they call Mack Daddy and ask him if he wanted to go eat at a new restaurant for dinner called Daddy Wings.
            Mack Daddy arrives at Chamise Village where he gives everyone a hug and gives Jazzy J a kiss and says “How are you doing babe?” She responds by saying “Good and you?” Then he congratulates Sky and Evil Eye on making their relationship official. They finally leave and arrive to Daddy Wings. The first thing that they notice is that the whole establishment is packed. They go inside and write their names down on the waiting list. Everyone’s expression is shocked about how packed it is. Mack Daddy says “Damn this place is packed and we’ve already been waiting for 30 minutes do you guys want to go eat somewhere else?” Sky responds by “saying we’ve already been waiting, a few more extra minutes isn’t going to hurt anyone”. Everyone continues their small talk to try and pass time until their finally called in to go eat. The total waiting time was an hour and fifteen minutes, once inside they were in I lost track of them. The restaurant was filled however with a majority of Hispanic individuals, as well as White, and a few African Individuals. The environment outside was packed with people enjoying their beers and associating with one another. However inside was a more family friendly environment.
