Welcome to DC!

I am living in DC! This has been a dream for years: to live in a busy metropolis where I skip to the metro every day with a novel in hand, dressed in a pencil skirt and bound for my chic downtown office. Well, I’m living my dream! My little DC life has been even better than I’d hoped--except for one thing. I never thought that this dream come true would come right smack dab in the middle of another dream come true…and his name is Luke.

Luke and I have been dating since May when we discovered that a 9 month friendship was in fact more than a friendship. We had an amazing summer together. We rode bikes, cooked meals, started our own book club, hiked, invented new s’mores recipes, met each other’s families, and took a road trip to Seattle. Basically, we fell in love. (Sighs). Before we knew it, the end of August came, and I was suddenly on my way to DC.



Even though it has not been ideal to be apart, we are working hard to continue to date. We have a weekly date online (they get creative. So far we have done online scrabble, a webpage scavenger hunt, and a youtube movie night), write emails, and talk all the time. Luke is so busy with school, but he is so good at making me feel like I am an important part of his day.
