Love, is a marathon. That's why you get so tired so fast of everyone. Slow down and face yourself. Cause when it's good, it's is a long, open road. You're exhausted, always comming down, trying to come up for air, trying to act like you just don't care. Love is a marathon...

Quest For The Holy Grail.

Note to Self: After a night like last night (staying up till 2:30am writing an essay) and a morning like today (waking up a good few hours before I normally get up to proof read the mess I wrote in the wee hours of the morning), I really should learn to not leave both my reading, and my essay to the night before it's due. Even now that I have come to this realization, I am willing to bet a week from now I will be in the same state of mind as I will have written my essay due next week Thursday--in the wee hours of the morning that very day.

Mission Completed...

Today, I continued my search for what I hope will be the perfect present (for the most perfect person!). My journey in finding the 'grail' ended tonight after a week of searching endlessly the streets of this very city. I was actually almost ready to give up--convinced that what I was looking for was truly going to be next to impossible to find (as I was told by a storeowner). But alas, I am persistant (most people would just call me stubborn) and surely, I wasn't going to give up until I knew that I had tried everything I knew. So tonight, Ryan and I ventured to many stores (too many to count) and with each store came a sense of ever growing disappointment as we found things rather close to what I wanted, but always missing one detail. I'm sure at this point my facial expressions began to reflect a feeling of defeat...but wait--what's this? We see one last store and as we enter, Ryan jumps excitedly as he spots (to the very detail) what I wanted to find. Impossible is nothing.

Here are some pictures that were taken tonight--kind of random, but aren't I always?

Ryan sort of looks like Tarzan in that last photo.

HAHAHAHA. What's THAT supposed to mean? Fine, I'll take a hint, if I shower now, I can make it for 2/3 classes! I'll only miss one. Forget that--what am I saying? I am happy bumming around in my sweats cleaning and studying.
