It's My Life, Pt.2
By Bon Jovi


Hello Darlings!

I should be in bed right now, as I'm suffering from a severe head cold combined with allergies. But I'm not, because I wanted to post here! So let's see......things are going well here, except for the fact that I have had this before mentioned disease hanging over my head for the past four days. I'm loving ND. It is the greatest place to go to school as far as I'm concerned. Even when I'm studying, I don't feel like it's work. It's really weird.....I'm really enjoying it. Not a day goes by when I don't thank God for sending me here....It has been truly magnificent so far.

You know what else is truly magnificent? Being able to see the guy I love every single day! How neato is that? I swear that my love for Paul has only deepened these past two weeks.....he's honestly the best boyfriend anyone could ever ask for. And he keeps getting better. Especially these past few days....he's been taking care of me while I'm sick: Giving me medicine, making sure I get enough rest, stealing my organic chemistry textbook so I don't attempt to study instead of resting.....etc... Tonight was sweet: I went over to his dorm to do a little homework before we both headed off to mass at 10...and my voice was strained, my eyes were watering and my nose was running. I looked like a rat that had gotten caught in a hurricane (speaking of hurricanes....that hurricane down in New Orleans sounds freaky!!) At any rate, I was feeling gross and very germy. Anyway, he was walking me back to my dorm and he remarked on how he thought it was funny that I refused to shake anybody's hand during the sign of peace at mass that night. I replied that it was because I didn't want to infect anyone with my vicious disease. Then I informed him that he probably shouldn't be standing so close to me, as I was very contagious. Instead of heeding my advice, he grabs my hand, pulls me close, and hugs me while saying: "I don't care." Isn't he a dear? I'm sorry....I'm just totally in love with the guy, and you all are probably so sick of me rambling on about him.....the thing is that I know he really cares for me when I look at him. He just has that look.....it's not an infatuation or a random crush. I really feel that there is something very special between us.....even if we do part eventually, I feel that there always will be a special bond between us. Crazy.

Anyway, I'm so psyched about this xanga site....and you'll probably find me posting here often! Ummm....don't let anyone else read the crap I just wrote above!



Love you all!!
