I know I always write you letters, but I thought I would write a blog instead. I just wanted to thank you for putting all of your effort into this relationship. We haven't been exclusive for long, but in this short amount of time that we've been together you've already given me the perfect storybook relationship. You have shown me more care in two months than anyone has ever shown me in my entire life. Also, the simple fact that you trust me enough to open your heart and mind to me is one of the most wonderful gifts anyone could ever give a person. We've known each other for half of our lives, from when we were 11 to 21. Even though we never had much history together until now, it feels like we have been inseparable since the first time we met.

You're one of the few people that has been able to give me confidence. This isn't just because you always tell me that I'm beautiful or gorgeous, but it's also the way I always catch you smiling at me from the corner of my eye. Just by the look in your eyes I can tell that I'm the only girl that you want, and it's the most reassuring feeling ever.

The way you worry and care about me is something that I'm not used to. In my last relationship when I confessed my eating habits (or the lack there of) all he could do is laugh at me like I was some pathetic loser. When I told you, I could see the sadness in your eyes. You let me know that you cared, and that I should care too. You didn't make me feel like an idiot, you made me feel valuable. You let me know that I was ruining myself, and that I had no need to do that to myself. In fact, ever since we stumbled into each other's lives, I've been trying to eat more. Although the amount that I eat isn't a lot, it's a lot more than I used to eat. There's just something about you that makes me want to better myself. Maybe it's because you always give me the motivation no one else does.

When we're apart, I get this feeling of longing. I never knew I could miss someone so much, but when I'm not with you, I spend moments throughout the day wishing I were. Maybe that seems a little weird, but you're the only person I can do nothing with, yet still have the best time in the world.

Anyways, I just wanted you to know that I'm grateful that you let me know how important I am, especially during times where I feel less than human. You're super important to me, and I will always do my best to let you know that. <3

I've been making a lot of references to my boyfriend about Sixteen Candles lately. You know that scene at the end of the movie where Samantha and Jake are sitting across from each other, and they share that romantic kiss as he tells her to make a wish? Well, my boyfriend and I sometimes sit across from each other like that, and I always tell him that he reminds me of Jake Ryan.

He has never watched Sixteen Candles, but he did a little research and tried re-creating that scene for me. We were fifteen candles short, but it was still the best re-creation of that movie ever. Soooo cute right?

I'm a super lucky girl.

My boyfriend has a summer cold, so I thought when I wake up tomorrow (technically today) I would go over to his place and take care of him for a little bit. Guys like a good pampering just likes girls do, so why not? So girls, if you're in the same situation as me and want to baby your boyfriend for the day, here's a list of things you can do!

1.) I decided to make him a get well soon card. It's more personal to get a homemade card, plus you can customize it to your boyfriend's personality and interests. Here's the card I made my boyfriend, cheesy, yet to the point.

2.) I'm not quite sure what kind of medication my boyfriend has at his place so I decided to bring him some of my Vitamin C tablets from China.

3.) My boyfriend's favorite fruit is pineapple, and he also likes yogurt. Tomorrow when he wakes up he'll find a few containers of my favorite pineapple Greek yogurt in his refrigerator.

4.) It doesn't hurt to be a cliche, so I'm also going to make him a nice can of chicken noodle soup. I would make it from scratch, but since I can't cook, he might be safer with Campbell's.

5.) I know when I'm sick I like to get a nice back rub, so that's what I'm going to do for him in the morning.

6.) Since sick people don't like to do much of anything, I was going to bring over a few movies that he might like.

Who doesn't like Spice World? Amiright?

7.) I'm not sure if he'll be bedridden tomorrow morning, but I'm most likely going to cuddle with him as soon as I get there. Cuddles make it easier to fall asleep to, which is something sick people need to do anyways.

8.) I want to make sure my boyfriend is eating super healthy tomorrow, or at least have a good breakfast. I'm going to bring my portable blender, some fresh fruit, and blend him up a super good pineapple kiwi banana smoothie. Here's the recipe if you're interested.

I've never taken care of a sick person before, mainly because I'm a germaphobe. These are the things that popped into my mind, but if I think up of anymore ideas I will certainly update this post.

For those in an unhappy relationship, I just want you to know that you're not alone. In some cases, with a little effort from both parties, the relationship can be salvaged. In other cases, it's always best to leave.

If a guy/girl doesn't treat you the way you deserve to be treated, that's already a good enough reason to leave. You deserve to be treated kindly. If a guy/girl doesn't treat you like this from the start, he's/she's definitely not worth your time.

Also remember that a relationship shouldn't be a dependency, but a strong partnership. If you're the one doing all the work, and the other person doesn't care enough to do anything for you, screw them. A significant other should care enough to want to do kind things for you, maybe not all the time, but not so sparsely that you can't even remember the last time they did something for you.

Boyfriends/Girlfriends should do things out of the kindness of their hearts for their significant other. That could be as simple as letting you know how important you are to them. If that's too much work for them, they obviously don't know how great of a person they have in their life.

If the person you're with makes you think and feel very little of yourself, drop them. No one should ever make you have a negative image of yourself. Never think "I'm not good enough", instead think "I'm too good for this jerk, they're the one that's not good enough." Always find yourself valuable, because that's exactly what you are. If you can't be appreciated for the person you are, or the things you do, you're wasting your time and they're wasting yours.

Sometimes fights happen, and that can occasionally lead to a breakup that neither party wanted. If your significant other can only give you meaningless words instead of meaningful actions, find someone that will fight for you.

During fights, if a person isn't willing to talk through problems, it isn't important enough on their agenda to fix it. If they think "sorry" is the magic word to fix things, they can stick it up their sorry ass.

In the end, just realize that a person doesn't define who you are. You define yourself.

I've been going through this missing my childhood phase lately. As I was looking through my pictures, I realized how much I've physically and mentally changed. Growing up was tough, and horribly awkward, but I wouldn't change a thing.

Here is the beginning of my life. Just a little infant without a care in the world. If only I knew what would be in store for me later.

Here I am visiting my mom's side of the family in Taiwan. Terrible twos.

My daddy and I at the zoo...the zoo that still sucks.

Kindergarden with the meanest teacher I have ever had. She was almost like Miss Trunchbull...no kidding.

I ended up going to a new school in the first grade, where I would be most awkward, yet make the best of friends.

Second grade school photos. Socks and sandals plus leggings. Gross haha.

Eighth grade...when I started the wretched duck face look.

Freshman year of high school...oof

Sophomore year, I guess I was starting to look a little better. Maybe.

Junior year. Apparently I used to look just like Charlyne Yi.
Yes???

Senior Prom, I ended up not wearing this dress and picked something zebra and short.

Bffls

Freshman year of college

Apparently I went through a look as Asian as I could face my freshman year of college. It failed, and I looked like an alien or a demon spawn of Satan.

Second year of college. Who would've thought trying out the whole normalcy thing and being myself would've worked.

Return of the duck face...

And finally the present.

My boyfriend took me on my very first picnic today. It was the simplest, yet sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

Before we went on the picnic we made each other sandwiches. When it comes to making people things I tend to get a tad bit anxious. Let's just say I was having a spazz attack because I thought I would make a simple PB&J sandwich incorrectly. Boy was I wrong, because it was the cutest sandwich I have ever made.

After we prepared the food, we packed up our stuff, and put all the food in a little picnic basket and headed onwards to the park.

When we got to the park he set everything up, and put some very lovely music on.

Since our picnic's location was by a lake we were expecting a lot of duck footed creatures. There were no ducks or geese at first, but once we started eating they just seemed to know. Our picnic basically got crashed by the beaked hoodlums.

Apparently they wanted us to share our meal with them, which we did.

We spent the picnic talking about silly things, feeding ducks, and enjoying the beauty of the day. I've always wanted to go on picnics, and I'm glad to say that my first picnic was with him.

He's just so sweet! He makes me feel like I'm in a super cheesy romance film. I never knew guys could be so wonderful!

So tell me, what's the sweetest thing your boyfriend has done for you?
