Going the Distance

Going to San Marcos today! I am excited. Yes.

You know, I bet you are all wondering how the heck Laura and I manage this long distance relationship. Allow me to elucidate! To be honest, it's really tough. It's really tough to not live in the same city, to not be able to see each other and be physically present with one another, to spend time with each other the way other couples do who aren't separated by 200 something miles. It's really quite frustrating. At the same time though, we do talk. We phone, we Skype (a lifesaver, by the way!) and we do whatever we can , and I relish every minute I get to talk with her, or see her. I get to see her every few weeks, which is a blessing in and of itself, and I look forward to every time I get to see her smiling face. Is a long distance relationship difficult? Yes, but not impossible. Is it worth it? Absolutely.

Now to other news. All things considered, today is going great. Many of my friends are participating in the National Day of Silence, an event being held across the country to heighten awareness of bullying in schools, specifically anti-LGBT bullying. Sadly, I'm too much of a blabbermouth to really do this well, but I do support them! Bullying is no joke. If you've ever been the victim of bullying, you know what I'm talking about. Anything that works to end bullying in schools is fine by me. 

Well, that's all I've got for now. Hope it's all gravy out there for you all out there!
