Mark's Message to me :)

Ciao Mi Amore! Yea don't worry about the convo babe I understand its just that its tough sometimes cause I miss you so much and worry about you going ot Argentina when I know that what we have wouldn't be jeapordized for some stupid fling and I just can't believe that a girl like you feels the same way I do haha. You have to picture whats going on in my head Lauren: 'Wait a minute, Hotty McHotpants feels the same way about me as I do as her...nah that cant be haha' so you see anytime I mention things like that you come back and make things so much better just by sending me these messages like the one you just sent me where im like I cant belive you just sent me that cause I was about to send that exact thing and it just makes me so happy that we are together :0).
Obviously Rome is probably the most romantic city in the world and everywhere I go there are couples taking pictures at monuments or landmarks and kissing by the fountains and shit and I get mad cause its not you and me and I yell at them haha jk. I just got out of one of my classes that is an awsome class and something im really interested in: the city development of Rome, but all I could think of in class was you: kissing your neck in the morning to wake you up then you unconciously (yea right haha) roll over for me to give you a message then at night holding you tight until you fall asleep, or start snoring haha. It's just that you mean and do so much for me and I feel like a piece of myself is missing but I know its just chilling in New Jersey for now :O)!
You are defenetly the best thing in my life now and the best thing that has ever happened to me and I just dont want to lose it and I never thought I could seriously and meaningfully love someone like I do you. To better understand it Lauren lets compare it to the Giants haha...I love watching the Giants but the joy I get from just being with you, laying in bed, watching tv, driving in a car, doesnt even compare to a silly game...actually this has no significance or comparison to my love for you but they are going to the SuperBowl and thats awsome haha. I guess what I was trying to do with that horrible attempt of a meaningful comparison was to say that I would give up every Giants game, every job opportunity in Texas, every moment of my free time to be with you because I figured out in my time away from you that thats truely what I love to do!!!
Ok enough with the mushy gooshy stuff haha. But on a serious note, its awsome to think that we are still together through this and what awsome things will happen next year at school. I Love you so much and miss you like crazy, can't wait to meet you in Argentina.

Your night in shinning armor,
Mark

I LOVE YOU TOO :O)

Weekend in Philly with Adi

So I spent the weekend in Philly hanging with Adi. We had a blast! I got there on Friday & met up with Kevin. Him and I walked to starbucks where adi works and suprised him. That was a ton of fun. It was nice to see adi, even though I just saw him last weekend when I got back from Mexico. (That seems SO long ago, its weird.) Anyway, Kev and I chilled at starbucks for awhile and just talked, which was nice. Its cool that we finally can just chill and talk for awhile. We def. wouldnt have been able to do that a few years ago.

Later that night Adi and I drove over to LaSalle where Katleyn goes to school. Sarah came by too. It was a ton of fun catching up with them. We watched Vacancy, which was very scary! Then again, I think almost all scary movies are scary being I'm such a pussy. Sarah just got back from Rome. She had a great time. Which makes me miss Mark even more.

The rest of the weekend was great. Adi and I went to this place Tiki Tattoo today. He got a flor de lie tattooed between his shoulders & i got my rook pierced. Adi's tattoo looks great & my piering barely hurts at all. All n all it was a great weekend.

The only thing that sucks these days is that I really do miss Mark so much. Everywhere I go and everything I do I cant help but think about him & miss him. Of course I know he is having a blast over in Italy & I soon will also be having a blast in BsAso, but I really do miss him. I didn't think I could feel this way about someone, but in a sense, I really just do feel like may day isn't fully complete lately with him not being with me to share it. Anwayyyy, time to go to sleep soon. Its kinda early tonight, but I've got a lot to do tomorrow

*sigh*

Oh to be in love...

MEXICO

Soooo, I got back from Mexico a few days ago. It was AMAZZZZING. It was probably one of the best weeks of my life. Mark and I had a blast. We got ripped off taking a taxi to our hotel paying $22. I remember as we drove from the airport we were passing all these beautiful resort hotels, and then, we keep driving, and then driving a little further, and begin passing these dilapidated shacks. However, we finally got to our hotel, which was in downtown Puerto Vallarta. The hotel was pretty nice...let's just say it had a lot of character. We had a great patio that looked out on the ocean, which was beautiful. Everything we sat out on the patio drinking our homemade margaritas. We brought the ipod player out and slow danced to some music too, which was really romantic. I honestly never thought that I could be romantic like this. When I was dating Matt I hated romantic shit. I thought it was stupid, fake, and lame. Now i eat it up haha.

We also went on a booze cruise, which was a ton of fun. They took us snorkeling, then we hiked to a beautiful waterfall, and then we went to a nice private beach. The sunset was beautiful! And they served drinks on the ship throughout the entire ride.

All n all it was an amazing vacation & I will never forget it. Mark is in Rome right now and I really miss him very much. I can't believe I waited all this time to go out with Mark. I've known him since freshman year. We started hooking up freshman year. Yet it took me 2 years to finally grow up and be with him. I think it was good in some ways I waited though. I learned a lot those 2 years. I made a lot of mistakes. At least now I won't make those mistakes with him. I really want to be the best girlfriend I can be in every way...socially, sexually, as a friend, as a lover, everything.

Alrighty, well, I have a lot to do today. I leave for Argentina in just a couple of days!
