Trying to go with the flow.  I don’t want to live forever thinking, what if?

I watched The Vow this weekend, and Channing Tatum began with his observation of “Moments of Impact.”  They are those life changing moments that could be great, but also detrimental.  Think about it. 

“Oh, the Places You’ll Go”- Dr. Seuss video poem by the Burning Man (whoever that man is).

LOVE. I love, love. Ok you get the point.

Here’s this thing, throughout all my life realizations (that i’ve been putting on tumblr, just so I don’t forget), love has been a constant.  

Here it goes. 

I closed myself off because I never wanted to be “tied” down and always wanted to be myself and independent.  I opened myself up and it was a great learning experience.  I thought I loved, and maybe I did, but I don’t think I really did.  It was high school I mean what did I really expect.  Can I say I have felt love since then to compare it to? No. But that’s beside the point.

All college (2.5 years) I’ve been without a boyfriend or any other significant other male.  I thought it wouldn’t give me anything “amazing” to look back on from college, but I am wrong, yet again.  Being single in college should be what everyone does really.  This is where I truly learned about myself, goals, aspirations, dreams, friends, life, and plan your future.  I met people from different background in the US and abroad.  Everyone is different (well obviously Camille).  

How do you measure love?  You know I don’t think I’ll ever really know how much I love someone until I have a child to be honest.  But what about “the one”.  I am the type of girl who doesn’t settle, but when I do, I make sure he’s worth it.  (A note on my past, I thought he was worth it.  Well he was for a little, but after a while it was not worth it.  A lot of bad decision making on my part.  But it has brought me to where I am today).  I am a guy’s girl.  I can hang out with guys and being comfortable, not needing other girls around.  I go shopping, watch them play videogames, play basketball, and can go to parties with guy friends and never feel uncomfortable.  This “guy’s girl” thing has made me picky.  I know what I want, and don’t want.  Well not entirely (in case you are wondering though, I need someone who can challenge me, but balance me at the same time).  

I do blog and post pictures a lot about love, but please also note my traveling pictures.  This doesn’t mean that I am some freak who hates love and doesn’t want it. I do.  It’s a great emotion that everyone should embrace.  And I did.  But now is not the time.  I don’t want to look bad on my college life and say, wow I wasted a lot of time with ________________.  

My point is, while many girls fear that college is the place to find “him”.  It might and probably won’t be, and that’s perfectly ok.  Along with all my only being able to be young for only 9 or less years, I will also only be entirely single and to myself for around that amount of time.  9 or less tender years.  I’m convinced that the next guy or 2 that become my boyfriend, one of them will be it.  Sorry I don’t plan on wasting my time enough to make it a title.  That means I may only really have a couple more years to be single.  The rest of my life, 60 more years (considering I live until I’m 80), will be with someone else, and the same person.  Which is something I am totally okay with, and I want, with the right person.   What I’m getting at is there is no rush to grow up or find “him”.  You will have your whole life for all of that, and right now should be a time to completely enjoy college and being in my 20’s! I (or YOU) WILL NEVER BE THIS YOUNG AGAIN! 

Finn to Rachel 

” You are like this beacon of light.  This gold star and for some reason, you chose to let me love you.  And i feel like if I can convince you to let me keep doing that, I’m going to be ok.  Everything’s going to be okay. “

Mr. Shuester to Ms. Pillsbury

” The first time I held your hand, it felt like I’ve held it a million times before.  And it’s always been here.  You have me to balance things out, and you have to realize that you do that for me too, everyday.  Loving you and being love you makes everything better.  I love you with everything I am, and everything I ever hope to be”

look upon beautiful nature

and calm your soul
over what must be - love
demands everything and completely with good reason.
so it is for me with you, for you
with me - only you forget
so easily, that I must live for myself and
for you, were
we wholly united, you would
feel this painfulness
just as little as I -

as always, whenever I fortunately 
survive something - now quickly 
to interior from exterior. 
we will probably see each other soon. 
even today I cannot 
convey to you observances, 
which I made during these 
few days about my 
life - were 
our hearts always close 
together, I would of course make none of the sort 
my heart is full of much 
to tell you - Oh - there 
are still moments when I find
that speech is nothing 
at all - cheer up - 
remain my faithful only 
treasure, my all, as I for you 
the rest the gods must 
send what must 
and should be for us — your faithful 

in the framewoek 
of the universe 
what am I and what is 
he - whom one 
calls the Greatest - 
and yet - herein is 
again the divine spark 
of man - I 
weep when I think 
that you will probably 
not receive the first 
news of me until 
Saturday - as much as you 
love me - I love you 
even more deeply but - but 
never hide yourself from

7
me - good night - as 
one bathing I must go to 
sleep [struck out: o go with] 
[struck out: go with —]
so near! so far! is 
not our love a true 
heavenly edifice - 
but also firm, like 
the firmament - 
good morning on July 7 - 
while still in bed thoughts 
thrust themselves toward you my 
eternally beloved 
now and then happy 
then again sad. 
awaiting fate. 
if it will grant us a favorable hearing - 
I can only live either 
wholly with you or not at all.
