| For Valentine's Day, I decided to do something new for my sweetheart. For this year, I decided to do a scavenger for Sarah. My scavenger hunt had several steps. I planned to put notes and cards in Sarah's bathroom, house, and her car. First, I planned to have Sarah's sister put a bouquet of flowers in the bathroon. The reason why I wanted the flowers in the bathroom first was because I believed the bathroom is the first place women go as soon as they wake up. Next, I planned to leave a note in her mailbox, then the windshield of her car. After that, I planned to leave her a message on her Myspace that would direct her to cd compartment in her car. Afterwards, she would find a CD, that includes a personalized message, that would ask her to look into the glove compartment. Within the glove compartment, she should find two tickets to the Warriors' game next Friday. Sure sounds like surefire plan, but boy did it end lopesided. After waking up around 7:00 am, I went directly to the grocery store and bought a dozen roses. After I purchased the flowers, I called Sarah's sister, only to be greeted with an answering machine. I called several times hoping for her to pick up but to my disappointment, she did not. I then called her brother and met the same fate. Her brother, which currently goes to Rancho Middle School, attends his classes around 8:30 am. Since Sarah usually wakes up around 10:30 am, I decided to camp in front of Sarah's house and wait for her brother to exit. After waiting an hour, I finally saw him open the door. I then approached him and asked him to place the roses and a card within their upstairs bathroom. After completing the tasks, her brother bid his farewell and started walking towards his school. After he left, I silently crept to the front porch of Sarah's house and placed the notes at the right places. After all was complete, I drove and home prepared myself for school. Later on that day, I recieved a text message from Sarah. She said she mixed up the order of the scavenger hunt. Sarah said instead of starting at the bathroom, she starte by cleaning her car. Yup that's right, on Valentine's Day. As she was cleaning the car, she then found one of the notes in the trunk, which then direct her to the CD compartment of her car. Sarah then open the glove compartment, mistakenly for the CD compartment, and found the tickets. She later on found the roses in the bathroom after she decied to take a shower. Sarah also said that the other notes I left for her, the note in the mailbox and on her car's windshield, were not there. Apparantly, her father must of found them and took them. Sucks!!! I makes me wonder what her dad must be thinking as he opened those letters. Ohh Well... at least Sarah is happy she can see at least one Warriors' game this year. I'm pretty sure we will take pictures. I promise I'll post some up as soon I get any. |
