where in the world is the average teen girl?

sorry i’ve been MIA lately. a lot has been going on- deciding whether to move in completely with my boyfriend (as opposed to juggling living on-campus with staying with him) next semester, trying to maintain friendships with people i never see (sad face), seeing where this silly little relationship of ours is going to go, and oh yeah THANKSGIVING BREAK. here’s a quick catch-up:

  • the bf and i spent halloween going to a variety of parties. the first night (oct 30) i went as “lois lane” and he went as superman. basically i was a slutty librarian and he got his costume at the last minute so we pretended we planned it all along. ha. the next night i was a “suicide girl”- if you don’t know what that is, google it. i punked up my hair (sans extensions) and added faux purple streaks, did crazy makeup and put a fake lip ring on, wore a corset and fishnets, and had my boyfriend draw tattoos all over me. since my corset was white with black bows and piping, he just wore a black and white style shirt with the sleeves rolled up to show off his (non-faux) tattoos. it was cute and a great drunken time was had by all :) (no pictures sadly.. i lost my camera for a few months before finding it randomly in my dorm room a few days ago)
  • for the past few weeks, i have been dealing with the most unfortunate UTI-yeast infection combo and today i finally got medicine for it. gross, i know. but maybe i can enjoy sex again.
  • speaking of sex, we do it more than should be physically possible.. and it is always delightful. i never thought i could get the “big O” from just intercourse but this man knows his way around a clit ;)
  • school has been stressful, and a struggle. i’m trying to figure out if i even wanna take classes next semester. that’s still up in the air (i didn’t register, so if i choose to go back i have to late register in january)
  • i quit my job, oh and i’m not going to paris in the spring. it was going to be too much financially and emotionally so my parents and i came to the mutual decision to either postpone it until the fall or go for a shortened semester abroad during the summer. sad, but that’s how life goes.
  • i have introduced my boyfriend to the parentals, and yesterday at our thanksgiving dinner (with 44 members of my family present) he was introduced to my giant clan. he did well, was a little shy, but no one got hurt. they were even kind enough to understand that i wanted to spend this week at his house, where we have been cuddling and canoodling the days away.

think that about covers it.. send me an email and let me know how you’re doing :)

The Way I Am- Ingrid Michaelson

If you were falling, then I would catch you
You need a light, I’d find a match
Cuz I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly, here take my sweater
Your head is aching; I’ll make it better
Cuz I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I am

I’d buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair
Sew on patches to all you tear
Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am
You take me the way I am
You take me the way I am

you are my best friend

boyfriend.

he makes me so giggly and warm inside. all i can think is how i used to think i was unlovable and inadequate. he makes me realize that i am good enough, and anyone stupid enough to overlook that is a waste of time.
