Question

How did you both meet?

Answer

Michael and Sam met in Gallaudet University's Carlin Hall on the third floor in the Fall of 2019! They can agree on that but they can't agree on exactly how they first met! Michael says they both met at a friend gathering during the nighttime and Sam says they met at the front of the elevators during the daytime.

Question

Who asked who out first?

Answer

First date in Fall 2019: Michael saw Sam and thought she was super cute but he was too shy to ask her out! So he asked Sam's roommate/close friend if she could set them up on a date (it was a date for Michael, it was a BLIND date for Sam!). Michael and Sam had their date at the Cheesecake Factory but stayed friends afterward. Second first date was in Spring 2022: Sam asked Michael out to the Cherry Blossom festivals taking place next weekend in D.C. when they were hanging out in Baltimore! They began going out on more dates and officially became boyfriend and girlfriend a month later.

Question

What is your dream honeymoon?

Answer

Michael would love to see Hawaii! He is very curious about the differences in each island and wants to swim and see the fishes and the reefs. He wants to try shallow-water snorkeling. Michael loves the Jurassic movie series and is looking for new dinosaurs to become friends with. Rawrrrrr! Sam hopes to go to Taiwan as it is at the top of her dream destination list! Sam loves seeing the architecture, learning more history in that country, and eating everything! It is also a secret dream of Sam to go on a 14-days bike tour of the entire island...
