But first I have to move

I am a lover of Hipster Romances. Deal with it. These are just small samples of why I do.

Andrew Largeman: This is life. And I’m in love with you… I think that’s the only thing I’ve ever really been sure of in my entire life. And I’m really messed up right now, and I got a whole lot of stuff I have to work out, but I don’t want to waste any more of my life without you in it. And I think I can do this. I mean, I want to. I have to, right?
Sam: Yeah. Yes!
Andrew Largeman: So what do we do? What do we do?

      - Garden State

Tom: I love how she makes me feel, like anything’s possible, or like life is worth it.

       - (500) Days of Summer

Jesse: Sometimes I dream about being a good father and a good husband. And sometimes it feels really close. But then other times it seems silly like it would ruin my whole life. And it’s not just a fear of commitment or that I’m incapable of caring or loving because… I can. It’s just that, if I’m totally honest with myself I think I’d rather die knowing that I was really good at something. That I had excelled in some way than that I’d just been in a nice, caring relationship.

        - Before Sunrise

Celine: [Celine’s song] Let me sing you a waltz / Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts / Let me sing you a waltz / About this one night stand / You were, for me, that night / Everything I always dreamt of in life / But now you’re gone / You are far gone / All the way to your island of rain / It was for you just a one night thing / But you were much more to me, just so you know / I don’t care what they say / I know what you meant for me that day / I just want another try, I just want another night / Even if it doesn’t seem quite right / You meant for me much more than anyone I’ve met before / One single night with you, little Jesse, is worth a thousand with anybody / I have no bitterness, my sweet / I’ll never forget this one night thing / Even tomorrow in other arms, my heart will stay yours until I die / Let me sing you a waltz / Out of nowhere, out of my blues / Let me sing you a waltz / About this lovely one night stand

           -Before Sunset

Joel: I love you…
Clementine: Meet me… in Montauk…

           - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Dean: I feel like men are more romantic than women. When we get married we marry, like, one girl, ‘cause we’re resistant the whole way until we meet one girl and we think I’d be an idiot if I didn’t marry this girl she’s so great. But it seems like girls get to a place where they just kinda pick the best option… ‘Oh he’s got a good job.’ I mean they spend their whole life looking for Prince Charming and then they marry the guy who’s got a good job and is gonna stick around.

            - Blue Valentine

Anna: I thought I understood it. But I didn’t. I knew the smudgeness of it. The eagerness of it. The Idea of it. Of you and me.

            - Like Crazy

Charlotte: Let’s never come here again because it would never be as much fun.

             - Lost in Translation

As some of my followers know, I posted on We are Journalists a while back. Today at work, a member of the Boston Globe came into our office. He talked to us about the shift to online newspaper. Some of you may not know that the Globe has two separate sites that it runs, Boston.com which is the free but limited version and bostonglobe.com which is the full site. So he explained the breakdown behind the two sites, how they chose how much to put on boston.com, etc. He also explained all the new ways with technologies that reporting and journalism will be featured. It was awesome. I was totally geeking out being a journalism nut. One of my favorite things is the magic mirror.

Well this is me sharing

I am planning of filming a video to the song Midnight City by M83. Get excited.

I was raised with a wanderlust mindset. I am always looking for the next big adventure and trip. Next place I live, I am buying a map and starting my plotting of places I want to go. The world is a big place, but sometimes small as well. I love traveling in the United States and abroad and never can get enough of it.

Any suggestions on what places I should consider going?

Please be respectful and in return I will be honest as I comfortably can be (If I don’t feel comfortable answering, then I will just say it)

What would be the number one question you ask me?

So my friends decided to be lame and not doing anything last night. So I watched TV and a movie last night, which I was fine with. But I wish I had a cuddle buddy. I miss cuddling with someone. I don’t care what you think of me. Cuddling is awesome
