How We Met

Ever Since 8th Grade...

We first met each other while touring for a magnet high school (I know, so nerdy). Afterwards, we kept running into each other at Garbas and Christmas parties. Yash knew he had to make his move, and what better than to send me a Facebook friend request. Knowing I was a die-hard Twilight fan, Yash had changed his profile picture to Edward Cullen, and then there was no way I could not befriend him! This began our journey to endless chats. I swear I am no longer a Twilight fan...and thank god Yash changed his profile picture.

The Proposal

3.17.19

After studying for Step 1 for weeks, Yash decided to surprise me with a trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Of course, I had my own doubts that there might be a "proposal" but Yash constantly said "I haven't bought the ring yet" so I believed him. The day of the proposal we were relaxing on the beach and see a beach dinner being set up. The entire time I kept saying "Wow that must be amazing to have dinner on the beach." Little did I know that I was watching our own dinner being set up. Skip to getting ready for the night, as I was changing to put on the dress Yash had bought for me I noticed a ring on top of the dress and scream "OMG there's a ring." Yash comes running worried that I had found THE ring, however, ironically this dress came with attached accessories, one being a big plastic ring. Surprise after surprise that night, we have our dream dinner on the beach (of course, I spend so much time talking that the sunset proposal becomes a night proposal), and as we are dancing on the beach Yash gets on one knee and says "Ever since 8th grade..."
