I'll take you wherever I go..

I'm done with classes which means a lot of family, boyfriend and friend time. This Saturday I had the pleasure of hanging out with a long time friend. Alyssa and I met on Livejournal in middle school and have been friends ever since. It was great to see her again. She traveled from Philly to Texas and we had a few beers and danced the night away. My best friends Jenn and Sarah were also able to make it out that evening and we had a pretty fun time. It was nice to talk about our high school days that seem so long ago. I can't believe it's already been four years. The time just seems to keep passing me by.

I spent the night at my boyfriend's house since I didn't get to see him that evening when I was out with friends. We've been dating for nine months now. Can you believe that? Our relationship started off a little rocky because I was living in Austin and we hardly got to see each other. After we traveled to Seattle together we became incredibly close. Now that I am living in Edinburg we are inseparable. It's kind of funny how things work out, I'm thankful that they did. Eddie is the person that I envision the rest of my life with. We've both changed a lot since we started dating and we compliment each other so well which is why I am actually considering moving to Seattle or Portland with him. It's very unlike me to move in with a boyfriend but it's different with Eddie. Our relationship is literally perfect. ::Chris Traeger Voice:: As a birthday present to my boyfriend I am taking him to Austin this Thursday and I booked a room on AirBnB in the east downtown area. I am planning on doing some vlogging for the first time. (I'm very excited about that!) We have plans to watch Phillip Seymour Hoffman's last film 'God's Pocket' at the Violet Crown. I also got us a pair of floor tickets to watch the wickedly talented Steven Patrick Morrissey. I am ecstatic, I can't believe I finally get to see Morrissey. The show is at Austin Music Hall which is one of my favorite venues. I'm also planning on taking him to a nice dinner for his birthday. I'm sure the weekend will consist of heaving drinking and eating. I really want to make his birthday special since he is working on his actual birthday and I'm sure this trip will be nonstop fun. I'm already making plans to go to Ken's Donuts, Juan In A Million, Halcyon, Thunderbird Coffee, Torchy's, East Side Cafe and Easy Tiger. Those are just a few of my favorite places in Austin. 

Anyways, I couldn't be any happier at the moment. My friends and I have really good relationships and we've been making more time to hang out with each other. My family is the best. They make living at home fun and it's great to spend time with Mia and Jade. As I mentioned before things with Eddie are fantastic. I've also been reading a ton and my reading comprehension has improved. I'm trying to read five books by the end of this month. I've read two out of the five so far. I hope you all are doing mighty fine. Thanks for reading, I appreciate it more than you'll ever know. 

Lastly, I'll leave you with this video. I saw Father John Misty last year at Emo's in Austin and he puts on quite the show. He was a member of the band Fleet Foxes but now focuses on his solo career. His album 'Fear Fun' was one of my favorites and I recently started listening to it again. I hope you enjoy. 

Love

I'm in orbit around you..

I did it.. I jumped on the young readers bandwagon. I found it quite impossible for me to watch 'The Fault In Our Stars' without reading the book first. Let me tell you..it was incredible. It was by far the easiest book I've read. It's so simple yet beautiful in every way. I don't want to give anything away but if you haven't read the book, please do. You will not regret it.

Sorry for the lack of posting. It was finals week for me which meant a bunch of writing, assignments and test to take. I did manage to finish 'This Side of Paradise' which was a great novel about the lost generation. I was quite taken by the ending. I did enjoy it. I also finished 'The Fault In Our Stars' this week as well. This month's read with Eddie is 'Notes from Underground' by Fyodor Dostoevsky and I'm quite excited for it because I know nothing about the book. I'm also going to start 'As I Lay Dying' by William Faulkner and hopefully finish my Morrissey autobiography this month. It's officially summer for me which means a whole lot of reading since I don't have a job (not by choice) and I'm not sure if I'll be able to take summer classes (not by choice either).

Anyways, moving on.. I couldn't be any happier with the way things are going in my little world. I am so in love with my boyfriend and I am enjoying every minute that we spend together. I slept at Eddie's last night and we listened to the Mac DeMarco vinyls he got me while we cuddled in bed. We also did some serious snacking and 'Community' watching. We fell asleep early because I was exhausted but falling asleep in Eddie's arms is probably my favorite thing to do. We woke up and laid in bed for hours. I read for awhile and then eventually fell into another deep sleep. We eventually got out of bed, did some more reading and then went to have a late lunch. We ate together and had a couple of mixed drinks followed by some yummy Brooklyn Lagers at Roosevelt's. We spent the evening talking and drinking beers outside. It was really nice. After a lot of drinking we headed home early because I still had an online final to take. I took it while I was buzzed. I know, dumb idea. I got an A and took the test in eight minutes. We hung out some more, cuddled and then I left because Eddie had to work in the morning. Once I got home I spent some time with Ferdinand and we ate Whataburger together. Finally, I finished reading my book and here I am now thinking about my boyfriend and how wonderful everything is going. Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I got my mom and my Grandma some cute and thoughtful gifts. I'm probably just going to lounge around and spend time with my mom. I hope you all had a great week. Oh, I almost forgot to mention season four of Louie started this week. It was worth the two year wait. Louis C.K., you are a phenomenal being and my idol.  Anyway, thanks for reading.

P.S. I want to share this song with you that describes my feelings for Eddie perfectly. It's our song.I know I'm super cheesy and in love but if you knew what I was feeling you would want to brag as well.

love
