My large post was me wondering hat would happen on my D.C. escapade.
ALOT happened.
But nothing I actually expected.
Our team was assigned to share a bus with another team from Mississippi, at first, I was a little iffy on this. They were from a private Catholic school, and I had convinced myself that they were the kind of people that were too good for us.
But what I quickly learned is that they were beautiful. Their personalities, their differences, everything. The fancy uniform and classy appearance only covered up the true and wonderful people they were underneath.
I avoided them the first day, they seemed to keep to themselves, being boys, having fun. But as the long day drew on, I began to open up, as did they. I talked to a guy, who told me my name was beautiful, one of the nicest things someone has said to me in a long time.
Each one was different in his own way, quiet, shy, hilariously full of himself, amazing sense of humor, random, sweet, incredible.
One held the door for me, several times.
One was by my side for an entire day, gracing me with his amazing personality.
One listened to my entire life story, and was in awe.
One made me smile a bajillion times a day with his humor, despite the fatigue, stress, and differences.
What I learned changed my view on guys. There are men out there who are some of the most amazing people you could ever meet! The twisted, sickly view i have had on them is only from my short experience in Alaska. I am so glad I got the ability to meet these amazing, fantastic, and incredible men.
Chivalry is not dead.
