moo!

Tú justificas mi existencia:
si no te conozco, no he vivido;
si muero sin conocerte, no muero, porque no he vivido.
- Luis Cernuda

I took that poem up in Spanish class, back in high school.
The reason for posting it is because...

Happy fifth anniversary to my boyfriend and I! :)
Well, five years since he took me out on our first date, which was - and we both agree on this - really lame. I'm serious. But of course, he's such a smart guy, he had the foresight to take me to Baskin-Robbins after to make up for it. I knew it was love right then and there. :)
I can proudly say his dates have gotten better over the years, but I still tell him from time to time that he's lucky I'm a patient girl because I let him take me out for the second one. Haha!
Despite the fact I cringe at cheesy things, I am a girl after all, so yes, I do have the ability to be cheesy from time to time! :)

I bought us those shades at a bazaar. 'Cause we're both so cool and that's how we roll. ;)

words for a new reader.

I take a Hugh Grant approach to my writing. Take a look at Hugh Grant; he pretty much plays the same kind of guy in his movies and he doesn't give a crap about what others think because he's having fun with it and earns a shitload of money doing it. I've hated reading and writing since I was a kid. Reading bores me and grammar lessons back in elementary (past perfect and future perfect whatevers, dangling modifiers, clauses, phrases, etc.) have traumatized me into hating writing and dealing with all those stuff, so I may not 'appreciate' the art of writing as much as other people here who do. My goal in writing is to have fun, and what I enjoy about writing is that happy feeling you get when you have this cute idea in your head and you somehow manage to get it on paper/MS Word. The sentences may all be wonky, the plot line can be crap, the characters are probably a bit lame, everyone else probably thinks it's boring – but I love getting that feeling that I managed to put my idea into words. I don't find it fun anymore if I actually have to spend time to go through everything with a comb, weeding out wrong grammar, punctuation, misuse of adverbs, etc. Where's the fun if I actually have to be serious with my writing; if I actually have to think about the plotline, the characters that I'm already fine with, and details I don't really care about?

So if you're looking for stories that are drama filled, well thought out, emotionally-laden, and cover heavy aspects of life – then you need to leave my profile because I'm seriously not the writer for you. But if you’re looking for good ol’ lighthearted stories created with very little thought put into them, made purely for shits and giggles, with a little bit of drama here and there because all good stories need a dash of that, then hey, maybe you can stick around. ;)

You have been warned.
