After -long-months- of not having a steady income, we are both working! Which obviously mean WE CAN PLAN A VISIT ONCE AGAIN.</p> <p>Not having an income can be a problem in any relationship, but it’s a very important issue when you’re in an international long distance relationship. Plane tickets, passports, visas, so many things to consider! We won’t be able to see each other in December like last year, but we’re trying it’s the earliest we can. Being apart for over a year has been hard on us, and we choose to not use this site to bitch about it, heh.</p> <p>Girl.</p> </span></p>http://www.5242miles.com/post/3992695178http://www.5242miles.com/post/3992695178Sun, 20 Mar 2011 20:30:08 -04005242girlboyloveldrjobhappycelebration<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lh5imc7Idd1qhqlk7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><span>September 4th, 2010 <h2>#35</h2> <p>This is one of our main issues right now, our lack of jobs. We have been looking. Everywhere. And it’s so frustrating to send out resumes and not even getting a ‘Thanks, but no thanks’ reply back! We didn’t think it would be this difficult. Without jobs, we have no money. Without money, we can’t see each other in person (we can’t even send packages to each other!). And that’s eating us up from the inside. Not being able to look foward to a date, to hold the ticket in our hands (or the printout, at least) and <em>be sure </em>that we’ll be able to hold each other again. Lack of jobs also carry a lot of emotional baggage, it really makes you feel terrible, like nobody wants you. But we try to keep ourselves occupied with other things, to not just wait and wait and wait… It’s a different kind of waiting, waiting for a job than to wait for that meeting day to come. But mixing those two <em>waiting </em>feelings… it’s really taking a toll on us. So cross your fingers for us (and for all those couples in a similar economic situation), hoping that we get something soon! So we can be back to be ourselves again.</p> <p>Girl.</p> </span></p>http://www.5242miles.com/post/3970822987http://www.5242miles.com/post/3970822987Sat, 19 Mar 2011 20:30:08 -04005242girlboyjobhirefrustrationAugust 14th, 2010 Welcome to the Internet!

We have been pretty distracted lately… and it was all the World Cup’s fault. I get a little carried on… and got the Boy hooked up on it too. He even wore my country’s t-shirt and was online in every single match (even the really early ones) so we could watch it together (too bad that he had 5 seconds delay, so he already knew when there was a goal cause I was celebrating!). There was even a match during his birthday. Poor Boy, the things he does for me.</p> <p>~ Girl</p> </span></p>http://www.5242miles.com/post/3930189929http://www.5242miles.com/post/3930189929Thu, 17 Mar 2011 20:30:07 -04005242annoyancebirthdayboycheercomiccountrycupdistancedistractedfinalsfootballfungirlhappyjerseylovemilessadskypesoccertogetherusvuvuzuelaworld<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lh5ijw122q1qhqlk7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><span>June 5th, 2010 <h2>#33</h2> <p>I love facial hair, don’t get me wrong.
