He Makes My Heart Smile
It means so much to me when He tells me He's proud of me. I know he probably doesn't care about my grades or how I did on a paper, but when I told him about how I did last session, He said he was proud of me. That made my heart smile just to know that I'm bettering myself to be good enough to with him. He deserves the very best.

Seattle Love
You know it's love when your boyfriend buys you books because he knows you love to read and can't always afford to buy them for yourself.
Every guy I dated before Mike always thought that my reading and buying books was, well, for lack of better words, stupid. But really that's just one of the few things I love about Mike. He understands me and what makes me happy. I'm not asking for diamonds or expensive things, I'm not even asking for books. I just want his love and he continues to give it to me. His love and everything beyond that.
We went on our first trip out of town this past weekend. We [by we i mean he drove] drove up to Washington on Saturday. It was 6 hours to Bellingham to see/meet my sisters. It was an interesting visit but we managed. We finally were able to leave and head back south towards Bellevue to check into our hotel. It was a little difficult to find but man, what a gorgeous place! I have never stayed at such a beautiful place and the price for that night was great! We checked in and set out to explore the city. Did a little bit of shopping here and there and then went out to dinner at a sushi place. It was alright- pricey but hey, what do you expect from Washington? I finally tried Sake for the first time. I don't think it's my drink of choice. After dinner, Mike and I went to a bar/hang out place called Parlor. It was a pretty cool place. They had this cool ice strip on the bar to keep the drinks cool. :) After a few drinks we headed back to the room for the night.
The next morning we checked out and headed towards downtown Seattle. I discovered I can't read maps worth shit and it was a frustrating trip. We didn't mapquest anything because he had legit maps...but I really should know how to read a map, right? We eventually found it and parked. The first stop we made was a chocolate shop where I bought a peanut butter crunch and a champange truffle. Oh delicious heaven. I bought Mike a cookies and cream carmel apple. The best part was the promotion they were running. If you spend more than 12 dollars, you get a choice of either a free chocolate dipped frozen banana or a dipped slice of cheesecake. Naturally i got the cheesecake. It was too rich to finish but it was so SO good. We walked around for a good while and then decided to leave. [side note: someday, I will be able to buy fresh flowers from Pike Place.]
On the drive back South, we made a side stop at the Tacoma Mall to wander around for awhile. That mall is pretty big compared to the ones in Oregon. We ended up at Build a Bear and Love made me a cute little puppy named Patches. He wears a NBA uniform. =]
Then we made the trip all the way down to Corvallis with a stop for the first meal of the day and to get gas.
Overall the trip was amazing. I love him and I love how we are together.
