It's been awhile

So i realize that i haven't posted in a long long time but soo much has happened lately. Here is the condensed version.
Found a way of dealing with my crazy emotions, got closer to my best friend, became more outgoing and comfortable with people i don't know very well. turned 19, saw my parents, lots of homework...now for the big surprise.
this last tuesday, i had lunch with a very cute boy who i decided to start talking to but was sure he was too good for me. fell for him automatically and at dinner noticed how he was complimenting me. thursday, had lunch but missed him at dinner which stressed me out so my best friend called his friend and we coordinated to go play cards in his friend's room. she left and i was with them. we played cards then went to play some pool and he was obviously flirting so I was on cloud nine! later that night, heading back to the dorms I wanted to go to bed but he wouldn't let me and followed me to my room but i sensed something wasn't done yet. we talked for another hour and he likes me but there were four other girls who had made their intentions known to him and he chose me! so friday we went on a date...
The Date:
He took me to a movie which was really gory but i chose it and regretted it soon after but it was early after the movie finished so he drove me into the mountains up to this overlook of the city, it was sooo romantic! it took my breath away. we talked for two hours and went back to campus but we weren't ready to leave yet. we stayed in his car in the parking garage for yet another hour and then he kissed me because i wanted a response to how i felt about him, whether he felt the same or not. the next day we hung out and did homework for an hour and hung out for two(bad ratio but it's all good)and he said that the kiss was an obvious sign and i understood he wanted to date me. i made him leave so i could process everything and after dinner, i said yes! so he is the best guy in the world, strong and protective but not jealous, thinks just like me and will treat me way better than the last one especially since i get to see him everyday and he is just two floors below me in the dorms. he is older but only by a year and 4 months(to be exact) and he is the first guy i am completely comfortable around and can tell almost anything to, very understanding, and very very very attractive! WOOHOO!!!!!
