Love

It's interesting being in a serious relationship, one that is headed toward marriage, and finally having that special person I've always dreamed of. I've found that my preconceived assumptions about love were far off.

Love is often something quite painful, and possibly unenjoyable. Love is truly about the other person, and not me. Love is letting go of things that I'm comfortable with so that I can make her comfortable.

Yet Love is so amazing I can't describe it. Love is knowing that someone is there for me regardless. Love is having that person to hold, look into each others eyes, kiss, and just be with because that's what you both love doing.

I know I still have a lot to learn about love, and I have a feeling I'll never stop learning. But I know that I'm happy that I am in love, and I wouldn't have my world any other way.

New York City


Cold times, fun times, crazy times, and loving times. New York City was a blast. I could have never imagined NY for what it really was before my visit. It's a fast-paced (faster than LA) town with people who aren't afraid to share their opinion. It's a place where you tip everyone. It's a smelly place. Everyone is trying to make a dollar off of you. Taxi's are expensive and subways are scary. But with all the hustle and bustle of New York, there is so much fun to be had and there were many sites to be seen. And the best part (for me at least) was being able to spend it with the love of my life. I've always wanted to travel around the world with the woman I'm going to marry. Now that I've found her, it's great to finally say we've started our traveling journeys. (We've gone to Hawaii as well so far). There's nothing more wonderful than visiting a fun and exciting place with the most fun and exciting person in the world. I can't wait to see where our love will lead us next.
