Long time since I wrote anything! I guess I've just been occupied being happy and in love! Since my last entry here, lots of things have happened!

First and foremost, April 11 my family arrived to Los Angeles! Words can't describe the feeling you have when you see your mother and brother for the first time in 14 months! I was a mess - couldn't stop crying or hugging them! They did not only get to experience the city of angels but they even got to meet my amazing love and get to know him. And words can't express how happy and lucky and blessed I feel! I have this amazing man who I love more than life itself and his family has just opened up their home and their hearts for me! And I've never felt uncomfortable or unwelcome around them! They treat me so good! And to know that we have the support from his part of the family means more than words can say! And then when he got to meet my family and show them what an amazing man he is, my family couldn't do anything else but fall in love with him!!

My family arrived Thursday night and Friday morning we went on a road trip down to San Diego. Words can't even begin to express the happiness I felt, driving a car with my mom, brother AND my boyfriend! Oh my god! And me and my love went on our very first trip together! We spent the weekend in beautiful San Diego and returned to Santa Monica Sunday night.

Monday was my 25 birthday! Can't believe I'm 25 now!!! Insane! But I'm happy and I have everything I want and need so I couldn't care less about getting older - as long as I do it with the love of my life by my side! Had a really nice day that ended at The Cheesecake Factory in Beverly Hills! Yum!

The remaining days that my family was here we spent just shopping, sightseeing and enjoying each others company! I took them to the palisades, to Hollywood, to downtown LA.. Showed them pretty much everything I could think of and it was a great time!

As for this weekend, my baby and I decided to go on a spontaneous trip to Vegas. We decided Thursday night and we came home, packed a bag and went to bed. Friday morning we were on our way to fabulous Las Vegas! We stayed the whole weekend and came home exhausted but we had fun! Can't wait to go back! Love the fact that we had the opportunity to go on not one but two trips this month! He is the best travel partner in the world! In fact, he is the best everything in the world, and I love him more than words will ever be able to express! Thank you god for making this amazing man cross my path!


(I'll upload pictures later - have to wake my man up now!)

this amazing man of mine.. don't know how to describe him.

friday night once I was done with work, I went to his place. we had dinner, wine and watched a movie until we both decided that we're too tired and just went to bed. woke up on saturday morning and I had to go to work. he came with me and when I was done, we went to CPK for dinner. after dinner we went back to his apartment and as we walk through the door, I see this amazing bouquet of flowers on the kitchen table. 'Oh my.. those are amazing!', I say, and his response is 'oh, those are for you! your favorite flowers, right? tulips and roses?'. I was so surprised! WHEN did he have time to put all that together? HOW did he do it when he was with me all day? and HOW can he remember my favorite flowers when that was something I told him months ago? anyways.. he did a great job surprising me! best man on planet earth!

sunday we woke up and it was our first easter together. he made us french toast for breakfast. with strawberries and lemonade. yum! he makes me so happy and so proud! then he had to study for his midterm so I kept myself busy in the kitchen. I made ham and mashed potatoes and some gravy and veggies for our easter dinner. I think I made him proud, and happy! 

today is april! officially 20 months in the us and a today! crazy! 10 days left until family arrives. 14 days left until birthday. big 25! insane!

when I came home last night, a cute little easter basket was waiting for me on my bed! thank you, easter bunny! 

words can't express how much I love this man. I love him more than I've ever loved anybody in that way. and I know he is the one for me. I know because I feel it in my body, mind and soul. he makes my heart sing and dance. he makes my world spin. this amazing man.. words will never be good enough to describe him.

we have a rocky road ahead of us. I wish it would be easy but.. it's gonna be quite the opposite. it's gonna be rocky as hell. but we have to stay strong and carry on. have faith and know that we will make it through. we have to - because if I don't have him, I don't know what I have. 

last night when I was at his place, he asked me to go to the kitchen and get us some drinks. as I was standing at the counter, he walked up behind me and lowered the keys in front of me. he said "I had these made for you today!" and I couldn't do anything but smile. I can't wait for the day when me and him are able to start a life together. can't wait to have a place of our own where we will make amazing memories and where we'll start the amazing journey towards a lifetime of love and happiness together. I can't wait! 

except for having an amazing man in my life, everything is kinda messy right now. just signed up for some classes at UCLA, and I am excited but at the same time, I have no idea where in my oh so busy life I will have time to do these classes. and also.. family is coming in just 16 days! 16!! can't wait! can't believe my mom and my brother are gonna be here. I haven't seen them in more than a year! it's gonna be so amazing to be with them again! ♥  

one of our first pictures together. what a handsome man I have. my god! I look at him and my body is just filled up with pure happiness and love. I have never loved somebody as much as I love him. I have never trusted anybody as much as I trust him. I have never let anybody come as close as I let him.

every saturday morning when I wake up in his bed and the sun shines trough the blinds and he spoons me, I feel like the happiest girl in the world. that's all I need. to wake up next to the man I love more than life itself, and have his arms around me. it's like nothing else exists in that particluar moment. just him, and me, and the little ray of sun that shines through.

a few nights ago, as we were laying in bed, all tangled up.. I was just looking at him and I felt the tears burning in my eyes. and eventually I just couldn't hold it back anymore. I started crying. first because I was so happy and because I feel so blessed to have a man like him in my life. then because I was scared to death.. scared to ever have to be without him. by this point, I don't know how to be without him. I barely know how to leave his house and go to work. all my free time I spend at his house. preferably wearing one of his hoodies, and just snuggling with him in bed. there's no better feeling in the world.

we talk about our future, a lot. I have never talked about a future with any man in my life. mostly because all the men before him were nothing like him. all the men before him were those kinds of men who would never appreciate me - men who would make me beg for their attention, for their time and their love. he never does. he is just so giving it sometimes scares me. in 25 years, I've never met a man who gave me as much love as he does. 

we were meant to be together. he is my destiny. and everything we are going through, and everything we eventually will go through, we will do it together. like the phoenix, we will rise from the ashes and come out stronger than we ever were once we first started our journey.

my love.. words can't express how much you mean to me or how much I love you, and for your love, I'd give my last breathe. 

  he is the one.

the man I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with. ♥

Spent the weekend with my love at the beach.
Life is just so amazing with him by my side. I can't even remember what it was like without him.

Love falling asleep and waking up next to him. It's probably the best feeling in the world. He is the person I am meant to be with - and spend the rest of my life with! God, I love him.. So much!!

words can't describe how much I love this man,
this wonderful amazing man,
that just happen to be the freaking love of my life!
thank you for walking into my life and changing everything!
I love you, forever! ♥

Words can't describe how happy you make me or how much I love you! <3
