Adventure Dating

A year ago last thursday Aaron tricked Bianca into going to Jersey City for the first time after creamsicle cocktails and Pinkberry.

Adventure Dates: 2013 MTV Movie Awards

The MTV Movie Awards happened to fall on our 1 year daterversary, and thanks to The Brady Center we got the chance to go!  While neither of us had much time to go see any of the movies that were being presented, It made for a great year-end wrap-up with all of the clips they showed.  

Adventure Dates: LA Bound! 

We're going to LA this weekend for the MTV Movie Awards!  Tickets from the Brady Center Gala auction (you know, from that time that we were walking around midtown in black tie attire).  

Anti gun violence, pro celebrating awesome movies.  

Bianca: I love you more than I love social media!

Aaron: I'm not going to say I love you more than I love social media because that means nothing.

Aaron: Because I don't love social media.

Last night's impromptu dating assistant planned date...

Some time in the afternoon I asked our dating assistant Holly to plan an impromptu "something for us to do" last night.

Coming from JC and BK to do yoga in the UES, then head to a dive in midtown may not seem like much of an 'adventure' to most, but all of that running around and not having known we'd be doing it when we woke up in the morning was kind of fun!  

Why wouldn't we just do yoga somewhere closer to our apartments/office, or get drinks around the yoga studio? We don't know! We do what Holly says when we give her control of the date.  (The best part is that I've actually actively avoided doing yoga with Aaron because I get self conscious. Leave it to Holly to force me to finally do it.)

And so, we went from the sweaty of the sweatiest dates to the divey of the diviest bars (which I actually don't think you should do after Bikram... *shrug*).  It was fun, we were into it, and thank god for emergency leotard in my office locker.

We appropriately danced to Love is a Battlefield at Holland Bar with the bartender:

Bianca: I love you and your PowerPoint presentations.

Aaron: It's what I do for a living.

Bianca: Your deliverable timeline was sexy.

Aaron: Thanks babe.  You should see how saucey I can get with my more advanced deliverable timelines.

Though getting matching lock and keys at the Coffee Meets Bagel Lock & Key event wasn't deliberate, the way that the CMB team input Aaron's name in the ticketing system was...

Adventure Dates: Key to My Heart at the Coffee Meets Bagel Lock & Key Event!

Coffee Meets Bagel events are among our favorite, not only bc we <3 the founders Arum and Dawoon, but also because they usually have a pretty good theme and we always have fun (like the time we went to their first singles mixer and pretended we had never met)... or get ourselves into a little bit of trouble (like the time Bianca jumped into a fountain in the middle of the room at their Summer Rooftop Party).

The CMB team decided to take it back to NY (since they've relocated to SF), to hold a Lock & Key event just in time for Valentine's Day, at which each guy received a random lock and each girl received a random key upon entry.  Guests were then encouraged to meet new people and walk around the room to try to find their match.

We decided to check out the event with our friend Billy (p.s. ladies, he is single- interested interesting parties inquire within).  Much to our surprise, when Bianca jokingly tried her key into Aaron's lock at first try, it immediately opened!  Convince that then everyone's lock must work on everyone's key Bianca tried hers on a few more and no cigar. Then of course we decided it had to be the CMB team that set it up when we signed in... but they were just as surprised and excited as we were!  Woo! So of course celebratory pictures were taken, and many a drink were had.  We're actually going to buy some chains to wear our official lock and key on.

Yay! We did it guys!  We're meant to be!! #love
