PEOPLE I INTERVIEWED… My

(Mother’s Day, 2010)

MY MOM WAS THE FIRST PERSON I INTERVIEWED…

(My dad has never been romantic, the most he’s ever been was before marriage.)

Romantic Event One Valentine’s Day, while my mom and dad

were still girlfriend and boyfriend, my dad bought her roses and a pendant necklace.

Why it’s so Memorable? He had never done anything like that before, not

even now.

THE SECOND PERSON I INTERVIEWED IS MY BROTHER...

(This is really a case where my interview became a team effort.)

Romantic Event On Valentine’s Day 2008, my brother ordered my

sister-in-law a dozen of long-stemmed roses and had them dropped off at her job before she arrived.

Why it’s so Memorable? She was so surprised to find those beautiful

roses waiting for her on her desk.

With their son too, Mariano Adan.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, THE THIRD PERSON I INTERVIEWED WAS MY SISTER…

Romantic Event The day my sister and her fiancé initiated their

relationship, on her sixteenth birthday. He asked her to be his girlfriend before church started and went miniature golfing afterward, something she wanted to do. He was trying to make the day as romantic as can be.

Why it’s so Memorable? Although they have experienced many romantic

events,this was the beginning. A day they were looking forward to for months and were excited it had finally came.

COMPARE & CONTRAST

Memorable Date Valentine’s Day or

the Start of Anniversary.

Thoughtfulness Male towards Female

Not all Involved Gifts A gift isn’t what

makes an event memorable or special, but rather the thought of one person towards the other.

MINE…?

Romantic Event Of all the fun times my boyfriend and I have had

throughout our relationship, our most memorable would have to be our first kiss.

Why it’s so Memorable? Although there was nothing romantic about the

setting, it was still the very first one. I would dare to say this is something many people could relate to.
