Have you been here before?

Not to Disneyland, but to Disney World. I love it here. I like scary roller coasters, but we also went on Dumbo the Flying Elephant and that was fun. We got to act like we were kids. We met Mickey and Minnie Mouse, and we met the Stormtroopers from Star Wars. R2-D2 flirted with us. He was hilarious. So the whole thing was just…I felt like a kid. We even drank that blue milk. It was just fun. And then we topped it off having dinner at 21 Royal. Rarely does anyone ever get to do that. It’s crazy.

How did you feel giving out your first one-on-one rose on a date?

I felt like it was obvious he was going to get it, but Chock said he was worried he wasn’t going to.

Really?

I’m like, “I’m certainly not giving good signals, apparently.” He’s like, “No, you were, but I just have no confidence in this.” I thought it was really obvious that I was going to give it to him, but he wasn’t sure. I realized that it was more special than what I thought, because it was so obvious we’d had such a great time and he wasn’t sure.

Do you appreciate a guy that’s not overly confident?

Yeah, kind of. I clearly was giving signals. I was holding his hand and clinging to him and having the best time, and we laughed…but it does show that he just didn’t expect anything. It’s very humble.

I hate to phrase it like this, but how are you feeling on this journey so far?

Yeah, you have to say it.

It’s been less than a week since this journey began, but do you feel like you could find a partner here?

Yeah. I almost feel dumb saying it, because it has only been such a short amount of time…but I feel way more confident [than I did even on night one]. I can’t imagine a date going much better than this, so I feel really good about it. And if none did go better than this, I would be very happy with this journey. It would already be very good.

That’s a great sign and also the fact, like you said, you’re doing this in a very public setting.

Very public setting.

I loved watching people do double takes as you and Chock walked around the park. Like, “Wait, is that who I think it is?”

I would normally stop and talk to everybody who recognizes me, but I couldn’t do that today, so I felt bad. Tonight, we were all by ourselves on that grassy knoll watching the fireworks and people kept turning around to look at us. So that was a little more awkward, though it was one of the best parts of the date. I mean, those fireworks were insane. They were so gorgeous. And with the music playing? Oh, that was really fun.
