Ok, you guys won't believe this... but I got PEARL DROPPED on Saturday Night!! It's funny since I started this thread, but only because a while ago one of my sisters told me that my boyfriend had asked how to do it. So she told him. He knew about it because I had told him one of the girls had gotten Lavaliered, and how I'd wanted to get that done since I was a freshman, ya know one of those things I dreamed about, etc etc. But I didn't hang out with fraternity guys anymore so that wouldn't happen, well ANYWAY.
Friday we went to eat and hung out at the ROTC Ball because he wanted to see the Lt & Major's or whatever... but he got food poisoning that night, so he went home... and was sick all night, and saturday he was still not keeping food down. But we had plans to go eat at Calhoun Corners [really nice place] and I was like, Eric.. why don' we go when you feel better? And he goes, 'no we're going to dinner, I haven't taken you out in awhile... I'll be fine" So after much discussion, I was like... hmm fancy dinner.. he's insisting, ok, twist my arm, I'll go!
So we go in, and we sit down and start talking then he goes, close your eyes. While he pulls the box out of his sock [so I couldn't see, haha] and put the box on my plate, and he goes open your eyes, so I look at him, and he motions to my plate, and I look down and my jaw dropped. He goes, "does it look right?" And I go... "is this..." and he goes, "... yeah, a pearl drop. I want to show you how much I love you, and one day I will marry you". Well, I nearly started crying. Then he goes, " You've made my dreams come true, I wanted to make one of yours".
He had wanted to do it for a while, but wanted to wait til he met my parents [last monday], but before hte last chapter of the year. So tonight I get to do my candlelight!!!
Ok, sorry... that was a lot of writing. I'm excited!!!
ETA: Oh yeah, it's 14 kt gold, with a pearl in the middle, little diamonds around it, and 3 crystals on top.
