love, interrupted
it's been 2 months, of which we spent almost a month apart. everything we've gone through so far has given me faith in us. i don't think i've been so happy with someone before, and even though i haven't exactly been that experienced in terms of relationships, i know when it feels right. i was watching satc the other night (what better place to watch it than in nyc itself) and carrie was talking about how a relationship wouldn't be a relationship if there wasn't some kinda pain involved, because it catalyzed growth. but there was a difference between the growing kinda pain and the actual kinda pain.
it hasn't been easy being on opposite coasts for the past few weeks and i dread to think what will happen when we are continents and an ocean apart. our first month together was wunderbar, beautiful and special. that period of time in which a relationship finds its footing and blossoms - that was kinda short for us given how late into the spring quarter it was. but now i realize that our non-physical presence in each other's lives at the mo' has only made me want this to work even more. being apart, somehow, has taught me how to love.

may 7thspring came late to seattle and that monday was one of those rare warm and sunny days which have thankfully increased in frequency. with the weather being so perfect, tony took me to manzana in bellevue for lunch, followed by gelato, and then we went to alki beach to catch the sunset and have dinner. that was the day that everything fell into place for me, that everything felt so right:)
that was also the day we got sick of mexican food, and we have been ever since.

little progress being made. i fell asleep after dinner, i only just got feedback on my draft from my prof, my mind is a convoluted mess of words, i am addicted to white chocolate kit kat, taiwanese milk candy and soya milk. funny how they are all white. hmm.here the pics of the sunset at the golden gardens park taken last tuesday. we had indian food in ballard, got some cupcakes from cupcake royale and headed to the beach. strolled hand in hand for a bit, and then sat down to chat till night fell. i looked up at the sky after a bit and noticed the twinkling stars. happiness. :)

university street fairthis blog is in dire need of photos. i have been taking lots of them, i just haven't been posting here. or blogging very much in general. add me on facebook if you have an account - i have more photos up there.
went to the university street fair on saturday, where they basically turn the ave into well, a street fair, with food, outdoor performances and tents selling all sortsa stuff.
it's been raining alot today so i spent all my time indoors, got a pounding headache and got cranky. but someone brought me dumplings which tasted so good, and later we went to QFC, so seeing him really cheered me up :)

lucky/blessed/thankfullife can be unexpected yet wonderful yet cruel at the same time.
but i'd rather go through this now than not go through it at all, because being with him has been nothing short of amazing.
