I don't know why but this video was highly requested
I can't believe some people want to get to know us
aww thank you for your interest
and that is why we are making this video
ok some people might be watching our channel for the first time so let's introduce ourselves
I am.... Japanese
duh
we've been married for almost a year and half
my husband is Hawaiian
my husband is Hawaiian
he grew up in Hawaii and is a pure Hawaiian
oh no he has some Japanese blood
but he has mostly Hawaiian blood
how long have you two been married?
it's been a little over two years
and they have a cute baby
yes we do
alright so I will start
I'm sorry if I make you bored
so how we met
after graduating from high school I came to Hawaii for a college
and I worked as a Japanese tutor
as a Japanese tutor...
there are Japanese classes in school and
they are given assignments in the class
I helped those students if they had any questions on their assignments as a tutor
it was all by appointment and
during the certain time
and I asked them what they needed help with
it's kind of like an assistant job
it was my last semester before graduating
that my future husband Teahi signed up
for my tutor session
at the beginning of the semester
I introduced myself to the Japanese class
in front of many people
"Hi I'm Saki and I am a Japanese tutor"
"please come see me if you need some help on your assignments "
"the sign up sheet is over there"
in fact Teahi saw me at this time
and he thought
"if this girl is a tutor..."
"I am gonna sign up!"
this is his side of the story
meanwhile I didn't know that was going on
I went to see the signup sheet and it was almost full
so Teahi was just one of the tutees for me
we only talked about Japanese stuff
like we only talked about Japanese grammar
-I remember -do you?
I was taking a class and the classroom was right next to your workplace
Funajima and I would come to you and be like "Sakiiiii"
while you were tutoring
Teahi thought we were purposely bothering you guys and he was left behind right?
maybe he thought that way
I feel sorry
I didn't know he liked you
-I didn't know either -oh you didn't?
I was bothering instead of being your cupid
I was like "hurry let's hang out"
when my graduation was coming closer
I was talking with several students who were taking Japanese class
one of them asked me "don't you have a boyfriend?"
I said "no because..."
my friend who was also a Japanese tutor
was in the conversation at this time
by the way Teahi was taking tutor sessions from me but also from this guy who's my coworker
so he was learning Japanese from both of us
and when these two were having a tutor session they talked about me
Teahi asked "I wanna ask Saki out but do you think she has a boyfriend?"
then my coworker who's his tutor said
"no she doesn't"
"the other day we were talking and she said no one likes her"
"she was sulking a bit"
and Teahi goes "oh really?"
and few days or weeks later we started talking on the facebook message
and he invited me to play ultimate frisbee
like "do you wanna play ultimate frisbee with us? my friends and I are playing tonight"
I said "yes I am coming"
and I went to the field and there were many Americans
he didn't talk to me at all
because he was too busy talking to other people
I was sad because he was the one who invited me and I am here all by myself
I kinda thought he invited me because he was interested in me a little bit but I was wrong
so I was like "forget about it"
but about a week after this
he asked me if I had a boyfriend
so I said no
and he asked me if he could ask me out on a date
so I said yes
and our first date was nothing fancy but
we hung out in the house
we made... do you know pho?
we made pho together from the scratch! soup and everything!
isn't it crazy?
-that was your first date? -yes it was
he later told me he didn't want to be just us alone
even though we always had one on one tutoring
so I invited my friend and he asked his friend and it was like a double date
after we ate pho
I like to dance and so does he
so we played just dance...? on xbox
and the next one was a surfing date
Teahi adjusted to my culture very much
he understood my culture that he told me straight that he liked me (like what Japanese people do on dating)
BUT he was very shy
instead of telling this to me in person he used facebook message
Teahi is funny
and for two weeks
we didn't hug or hold hands
-after becoming official? -yes
two weeks! we had nothing like this
I thought he was extremely shy
that is so cute
very pure right?
like what teenagers will do
especially because everybody hugs here in America
like "bye good night!" with both boys and girls
after that we were in a small distance relationship
we were both in Oahu but we lived completely the other side of the island and far from each other
it was a small distance relationship
he was still a student in school
I graduated before him working full-time job
after a year and two months we got married
we've been married for over a year and half so
we are together for almost 3 years
yawing...?
for me...
my aunty and uncle live in Hawaii
during the summer break I stayed at her house
when my aunty goes to church
she took me with her
and Ezra was there
-Ezra looks young right? -very
I thought he was 15 or something
he talked to me but I wasn't into him at all
guess what he said to me
"your name 'Aoi' means 'blue' in Japanese"
"...right?"
that's what he said
in front of bathroom
but that's not what my name mean my name comes from a flower
at that time I couldn't speak English well and I always had my cousin in between to communicate
I told him "can you explain that my name doesn't mean 'blue' but it comes from a flower?"
and he told Ezra
and that was it
that's how I first met him
and my uncle thought we would date
Ezra was my uncle's favorite
he set up...he invited Ezra to a dinner one time
he said "Aoi wants you to come over!!"
"can you come!?"
I wasn't interested in him at all and he had a girlfriend at this time
oh really?
so he came over but only because my uncle invited
and my uncle said "did you guys exchange numbers?"
so we exchanged
because Ezra likes anime he texted me like "do you know this anime?"
-he doesn't look nerd -he is very nerd
while texting he asked me to hang out with him
but because I am an introvert
"let's go to the beach"..."no"
"let's go hiking"..."no"
I feel bad for him
I told him that I didn't like outdoors
then he said "let's go ice skating"
then I thought... ice staking...
indoor...
"coming"
indoor is okay
after we went to ice skating we got very close
we started hanging out every Saturday
and we became like girlfriend boyfriend
but he didn't want to be official
-I liked him more -really?
I was like "let's be official"
he was like "no not yet"
but one day his friend asked us
"is she your girlfriend?"
and he answered "oh yes"
he didn't wanna say "no" because then his friend would have said "wait what are you guys holding hand then?"
he didn't wanna have to explain and that's why he said "oh yes she is my girlfriend"
meanwhile I was happy listening to it
and that night when we talked on the phone I asked him
"today when your friend asked you if I was your girlfriend and you said yes"
"so am I your girlfriend?"
but he said "oh I just didn't wanna have to explain"
I said "oh... I was happy when you said that... but okay"
he said "were you happy?"
I said "of course I was happy"
he definitely knew at this point that I liked him
hearing your story makes me smile and giggle
he knew my culture too so he said
"can I ask you something then?"
"so can I call you my girlfriend?"
I said "yes!"
since then we started dating officially
after that I went back to Japan for a little bit
and I came back to Hawaii, he proposed and we got married
I skipped the details
I kinda wanted to know the details but you skipped it all
Ezra wanted to marry once he started dating officially
that's why he wanted to know me more before becoming official
but I passed
I thought Ezra was the one who was approaching more
no I was
why did I like him?
-you don't know why? -I'm just kidding
is she really joking...?
to be honest I liked how he looked
when I first thought he looked young I didn't care about him all
once I found he was cute I got into him a lot
but he was like "hmm... I can't trust this girl yet"
but it's good that Ezra was being careful
yeah because he wasn't just choosing random girls
is this topic interesting?
some people will watch and others don't
sorry for talking so long
please like this video and
we will see you in the next video bye bye
