It made perfect sense to me. That's exactly how I felt about Weeping. And Weeping is by far my best work.

That's good! Glad to hear it!

And lol, it's the good, butterflies in your tummy kinda nervous!

But basically on the first, I am seeing someone who's had a very special place in my heart for a long time. And I am going to be giving him a poem I wrote for him, along with a birthday present. XD

I just finished watercoloring some paper so the poem will have a pretty background, and I'm going to cut out the poem and glue it all pretty onto the paper.

And if it isn't obvious, I really like him a lot. <3 And even though we aren't officially dating yet, he said he'd love for us to be together.

I'm just terrified he won't like my poem because it's kinda...I dunno. XD I never write love poetry.

Thanks! ^^ I'm sure it will.

It's so strange. I was horribly sad and depressed just a week ago which is why I vanished from any sort of social life.

Now I'm the opposite of that. I'm bouncing off the walls with giddiness and I'm just stupidly happy about everything.

I dunno, I feel so liberated that I'm not hiding my feelings anymore.

Not much. I should be plotting, but I'm watching TV.

What about you?

Hi, BG.

Debating whether or not to order the stuff I want from Myndology -- even though I probably won't use them yet.

Congrates Keag!!!

Dont be nervous, if he already said he would love for you two to be together then he clearly already likes you. Dont be worried about the poem i'm sure he will absolutely love it. If my boyfriend gave me a poem (and i dont like poems) then i'd be extrememly happy about it.
