Maybe Two Is Better Than One


So Friday night was semi formal 2010. Chris and I got all dressed up, waited outside in the cold, and danced the night away. I had a really great time, which was suprising considering we left the halloween dance in under an hour. We saw other friends, and hung out near them, but the night was mostly ours. I loved it. Then we came home, and crashed in my bed. It was excellent. The next morning, I woke up to see him sleeping beside me with his hair all over the place. I love waking up before him and seeing him like that. He looks absolutely perfect in those moments. You probably didn't need to know that but whatever. After he woke up, we watched the Westminister Dog Show, and talked about our lives together, and how we want like 8 dogs, 2 pigs, and 3 kids. I love doing that with him. It makes me feel good, because he is just as excited about our future together as I am. Chris is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. He will do almost anything for me, and I'm realizing that I will do almost anything for him. It's amazing that someone like him exists. Someone who can take all of my crap, and know me enough to know that I don't mean half of the bad shit that I say. Someone who will stay by me through anything, and still love me for the disfunctional girl that I am. Someone who really does love me.

Friday

Busy Busy Day

So today is going to be such a busy stressful day. I have an accounting test first period, then a peer helping tutorial which I am leading. Hopefully that goes well. That's probably what I'm the most nervous about. Being on the spot and no one answering the questions that Sean and I ask. ahh. Then in 5th period I have a quiz and I have to hand in the first part of my ISP. So something in like EVERY one of my classes today.
And to top it all off (on a better note) Semi formal is tonightt :D I'm excited because I love my dress, and I love my boyfriend. I hope it will be a great time !

Well thats really all I have to say. I may blog about semi, I may not. Hopefully I stay for more then an hour.

Monday

Valentine's Day


Oh Valentine's Day. The time of year when single people get to feel bad about not having someone, and people in a relationship get to feel bad if their special someone doesn't meet their extreme Valentine's day expectations. A hallmark holiday as most people call it.
Now I don't think that Valentine's Day is all bad. It's nice to get something, and to be reminded that someone loves you. It's also nice to remind someone that you love them. But I mean how far do you have to go to do that? People go out to lavish resturants, and plan huge affairs just to show someone that they love them. Even cards are expensive now. (The one I got Chris was like 7 bucks at shoppers !). I don't think that people need to spend money to show how much they love eachother, when there are so many different things that people can do.
This is my second Valentine's day with Chris. He bought me some nice flowers, and then we ordered dinner with my mom. We came home, ate, tried to watch our favourite TV show, and then fell asleep by 8:30. Haha we were really into the spirit this year. Last year's was better. Chris came over, and I had my room all filled with candles, and I had made a big heart shaped cake. We iced the cake together, went downstairs and ate almost all of it.
My point is that Valentine's day doesn't have to be a day where you go out and spend money. I was perfectly content to spend it at home in the presence of someone who I love very much.
Also, I believe that Valentine's day is more for single people who want to hook up, or new relationships. Once you get into a long-term relationship, Valentine's day isn't that big of a deal. It's a nice day to spend with a loved one, but it's not huge. In my opinion, Christmas is a more romantic holiday than Valentines day.
That's just my opinion though. Feel free to disagree.
Hope everyone had a great Valentine's day, no matter who you spent it with, or what you were doing.
