I've been so busy lately. I wrote a post right before prom, that was meant to go up, but my internet crapped out on me and I lost the whole thing. It was really interesting, and I talked about my crush. I guess you will all never know now.
So Prom was an incredible night. I don't really feel like typing the whole thing out. Just know that I had tons of fun, my date Yesenia was beautiful. So was Livi. So was Jennifer. Jennifer got Prom Queen, and then I got to dance with HER! Ahh, I'm going to miss her like I would miss my left foot. She really is like a vital part of me, that I take for granted most days. I don't really pay her too much attention, and we hardly have time to converse and say, "hey, you're a good foot for me, and walking this gracefully would be nearly impossible without you." I really love her. She's real. She's one of the few real people I know. By that I mean, that she lives in a real house that isn't lavish, and it has all sorts of things out back that her dad has constructed. She goes to craft night. She had a first kiss, and I was there. She does homework, and she has fights with her friends. She'll make you a fruit smoothie whether you want one or not. She'll even cook you pancakes for breakfast, and the way she gives them to you makes you feel high. I would say that she gives the best hugs of anybody I've ever known. She gives hugs that make you remember that you are real and she's a real person who loves you. She works at albertsons, and drives and old pickup truck that her sister used to drive. She works out in the mornings. and that is so interesting to me, because it's real to me. If things had gone differently throughout highschool, I could have really loved her like she deserves to be loved and been the best boyfriend. I have no regrets. This is how things are. I still love her, but in a different way. being with Jennifer is like taking all the best scenes from all of the best chicflicks and then adding them to your life. Whoever she ends up with I believe is a very lucky man, and I hope he treats her like a queen.
You make think me an idealist. That's one way to see it. To me, reality is not dictated by only the physical realm, but by what matters. bad things matter too, yes, but what I think love does is conceal those bad things and reserve true meaning and memories for all of the beautiful parts of a person. Somebody could probably tell me that "oh, Jennifer's not perfect, and what not." I don't care, she might as well be, because in the great relationships, love is eternal, and happiness prevails. And at the end of the road, we'll be glad for the amazing moments, and the terrible moments will be good moments, because they led to beautiful moments. That's companionship. That's the relationship that I have with God. I'm so thankful for all of the experiences I've been through, the good and the bad. because the struggles I've faced have made me stronger and have proven the triumph of God. God forgives. Not Idealist, reality. True reality is what your soul encounters.
