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)

Daft Punk – Digital Love

Incubus – Stellar

Incubus – I Miss You (This one makes us both cry)

NIN – We’re In This Together

Daft Punk – Face To Face

John Denver – Leaving On A Jet Plane (To be honest I like this version, even if I’ve never watched Glee)

Incubus – Wish You Were Here

(All are random links on YouTube except for Something About Us… that’s the link he sent me when we first started talking.)

We both got sick at the same time, and spent a day in bed talking to each other on our netbooks. Conversations interrupted by coughing fits are no fun!

Do you have sometimes that feeling that you’re just disconnected from the world? When something terrible happens, for example the loss of a person, and time just seems to stop and everything just feels like in a haze. In just a couple of years I had to deal with a lot of deaths, and it never gets easier to me. It happened recently, a persno I looked up to passed away, and I was (and still am) very sad. It’s sort of difficult that I’ve had so many experiences of this kind, but the Boy had none, so he doesn’t fully understand how hard it is for me. But that’s ok. I don’t wish something like this to happen to him.

We’ve gotten a couple of comments about a former post, and I think I should repost something I wrote in a comment before:

Because of my culture and personal opinion, I consider us to be still too young and too early into the relationship to live together (one of the first options for LDR couples if they don’t have much money to relocate). Luckily Boy agrees with my position. However, we are both exploring options to be able to spend more than a couple of weeks in each other’s country (be it work, education, etc). In the spirit of keeping this blog as anonymous as we can, we prefer to not give much insight of issues that are stopping us right now from throwing our arms to the air and just be together physically (e.g.: we mention money problems, but we don’t specify much behind that point.). All that being said, yes, it is one of our long term goals (if not, we don’t see much of a point on being LDR) and we hope that sooner or later it will become true.

We don’t think jumping into marriage is a good way to solve problems. We don’t believe in just doing it to have the possibility to be in the same country. We want to first overcome those obstacles, and then if time and the feeling is right, may be.

Learning from misakes

One thing that these last few weeks have taught me, is that you can never be too careful when it comes to the ones you love. I have said some pretty hurtful things, and I have let myself down, as well as her. Some things can not be forgiven, and some things just scar too deep to let go.

Please learn from my mistake; you have to think about the things you want to say, every word of it. Because if you don’t mean exactly what the words you’re typing, or saying out loud, DON’T SAY THEM! You may not know how much it will hurt your partner.

I am so so sorry my love, I will not let you down like that again.

On a lighter note, I might be getting a better paying job here soon. Also, she finally got her degree. Congrats Girl!!! I am sorry I couldn’t be there for that. If my job works out, I will be able to see you more than once a year *crosses fingers*. Wish me luck.

Boy.

I don’t need a day…

…to remind me to tell you that I love you.

So it’s Valentines day. A day where loved ones are in each others arms and buy sexy clothes, and chocolates and roses…. But what if your loved one isn’t so close, and what if your loved one is from a country that doesn’t really do the whole Valentines thing. Well you kinda ease into it, and make plans for the day you will spend it together. I love her and it’s sad that another year goes by and I’m not with her night and day.  I don’t really need a day of the year to express my love for her. I think the boyfriends that only buy flowers on days like today are a joke. She knows I love her, and I know she loves me.  We don’t  need a day to spark that.

I drew that heart into our notebook a while ago and we have almost filled it, a lot of back and forth and she had made a scrapbook in it of my first trip to see her (we might share some it with you guys).

Another sketch from the boy’s visit… On one of the days it rained a lot (streets were flooding lightly) so we just stayed inside and watch movies. While we had Forrest Gump on, I made a cherry pie for him. He even recorded it with his camcorder, lol… He did like it, and I’m glad. Too bad I didn’t have American Cream ice cream to put on top of it!

I’m kind of down this week, but life is just a series of ups and downs. Just sucks that we can’t share both next to each other. Now that we’ve been together, in the same country, in the same room, only seeing him on my screen kind of frustrates me. But I have to get used to it again, until next time…
