Wherever she is.

Welcome to our new home on the internet!
We’ve decided to move from a little server with Wordpress to Tumblr. It’s easy, no software to upgrade, and we can interact with other LDR-ers a lot more. We hope you enjoy our posts.
www.5242miles.com will be our URL!
Boy & Girl.

We’re jobless no more! After -long-months- of not having a steady income, we are both working! Which obviously mean WE CAN PLAN A VISIT ONCE AGAIN. 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. Girl.#36 — Eeeeee!

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 be sure 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 waiting 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. Girl.#35

Sorry there haven’t been a lot of posts lately, I just haven’t had internet and the little net I could use here and there I’ve dedicated it to talk to the Boy. But we’ll be back to a regular updating schedule this week for sure. ♥ Girl.Welcome to the Internet!

Hello everyone once again! 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. ~ Girl#34

Music makes us feel closer. ~ A couple of posts ago someone recomended us a song (I did like the lyrics very much!), and it made me want to share our playlist on the site. Daft Punk – Something About Us (Our song) Incubus – I Miss You (This one makes us both cry) John Denver – Leaving On A Jet Plane (To be honest I like this version, even if I’ve never watched Glee) (All are random links on YouTube except for Something About Us… that’s the link he sent me when we first started talking.) ~ Girl.#31

The last few weeks have been really hard, and I haven’t been able to sleep much lately. I go to bed at 2 am just to wake back at at 4 and I don’t fall back asleep until almost 6. Part of it due to stress, the other part is due to the lack of knowing what will happen day to day. I have been trying like crazy to find a new job so I can save up to see Girl this Christmas like we want to, but I am running out of time and have been forced to apply to something I didn’t want to do. It’s all in an attempt to make as much as I can to see her as quick as possible…. Night after night, for weeks now, I say good night to her and go to bed only to wake back up a little bit latter. Thinking too much about what might happen if I don’t find some work soon.. Just when i think I’ve lost it, I look at a gift from her. An early birthday present and think to myself her saying “Everything will be OK, we will make the best of this”. With that thought I snap out of the rut I am in and start thinking better thoughts. She is my compass through this ordeal, keeping me on the right path. Its now 5 am. I am off to bed trying to get to some sleep. Man, I wish she was here with me. I don’t think i would have such an issue sleeping if my bed wasn’t so empty. Boy.Been thinking
