Our Story: Part 7 "Spring Break"

My 21st Birthday

Spring Break

My 21st Birthday was happening ON Spring Break with my girlfriends....IN FLORIDA!

I was THRILLED to be going on my first real spring break (not just back home) with my girlfriends.  We woke up on Saturday morning and ate the rest of my chocolate birthday cake for breakfast before our flight left because we were going to start this week with a bang!

Florida was a blast.  We did all the normal stuff, went to the beach, laid out by the pool, shopped, ate out, watched the IU baseball team at spring training (two of the girls I was with were dating guys on the team).  It was an awesome time!


I got these awesome pictures right out of my old school scrap book...
remember when cameras actually used film!




March 17th, St. Patrick's Day, we started my birthday celebration at Midnight by going out and drinking green drinks!

This was from dinner the night of my birthday...
I still have the keychain picture:)


March 18th (my actual birthday) my girlfriend, Robin, hands me a gift right before dinner.  I thought it was so nice of her to bring a wrapped gift for me, but she told me, "Oh, it isn't from me, it's from Phil."

WOW.  Okay, it was very thoughtful of him to send a gift with my girlfriend to Florida so I could open it on my actual birthday, but I don't know why it struck me odd that he felt he needed to do that.  We weren't even really dating.

After dinner some of the girls went back to the house and my girlfriend Jess and I met up with her cousin and we walked down the street to a huge dance club.  It was really nice to have an older brother type guy to look out for us and keep us safe.

As we were walking I got a call from my mom.  She wished me a happy birthday and then said,

"So, Phil called your dad today."

WHAT!?!?!?!?!

We must have had a bad connection, because I KNOW I didn't hear her right.

How had he called my dad? How did he get my PARENT'S home phone number?  WHAT DID HE SAY TO MY DAD?

Apparently he had been calling for days, but because my parents didn't recognize the number, they didn't answer.  Finally, he had called so many times the decided to pick up.

Phil talked to my dad and told him that since we had been spending time together he wanted to call and introduce himself.

Harmless enough, but I was FREAKED OUT!!!!

He was clearly taking 'US' way more seriously than I was.

IN MY MIND WE WEREN'T EVEN DATING!

I hadn't talked to Phil while I was in Florida.  He was in L.A. doing an internship for spring break so I knew he would be busy anyway.  Besides, what was I going to say to him over the phone? You are creeping me out. What were you thinking?

I decided to wait until we got back to school to sort things out.  In the meantime, I tried to forget about the incident and had a fabulous time in Florida and thoroughly enjoyed the rest of my spring break.

I would deal with our 'Status' when I got back to school.
