Virginia and Washington D.C

This past weekend I went to Virginia with Traver to visit his family and tour Washington D.C! His family was very hospitable, and the guestroom I stayed in was very lovely!
Traver and I went up Thursday night, woke up Friday morning, and went to D.C to tour the city. We took the subway to different places, from the lame Chinatown (it really was that lame as Adrienne told me haha), to the historical buildings and monuments, to Koreatown (both our favorites!)
For lunch, we went to a small Indian restaurant that has a buffet. The food was authentic and spicy! I tried to finish two plates, but it was too much for me! Same with Traver too! We walked outside to a bench and rested for 30 minutes because we were too full to walk x_x. I even felt heartburn from it!

The Korean restaurant we stopped at for dinner was called Honey Pig (weird name, I know) had really good food! It was also pretty decently priced too! MUCH better than Seoul Garden! We weren't even finished with our food and our stomachs hurt from being so full!

Here's some sappy stuff, so if anyone wants to skip reading this, I understand! :P
From my weekend with Traver, I realized something that I never did before: Finding the right person isn't about finding others' definition of perfection; it's about finding the perfect person for you. And when you find that person and get to know that person inside and out, you can see how well you both match.
Traver's like a puzzle piece that's been made just for me; he matches me perfectly. He may not be everyone's ideal perfect guy; his temper can rival that of my dad's, he's late to dates, and he's pissed me off to no end on more than one occasion. But one thing he's been able to do that no one else has been able to do for me was to keep me happy and on my toes! I have honestly never felt joy like this before in my life. He's only himself around me, and he accepts me for myself. More than once, he has asked if his less attractive traits have led me to love him less, and my reply was "I love everything about you, even your faults."

OOH Update on how my grades are!
I suck at physics, and I suck at chemistry, but from my last grade in my chemistry lab, I can write pretty beast lab reports! Heckz yeah, a 91! heehee ^_^

Shopping

My favorite pasttime is shopping. It's not a healthy pasttime, aside from the mass amount of walking. It does improve my mood in many ways though!
Today I went to my apartment to start packing my things up to get ready to move back into my parents' house. I'll miss having my own place, since I had more freedom, but nothing beats free food!
After packing for about an hour, Traver came to pick me up to go to the mall. It was unbelievably quiet, and there weren't a lot of people. Must have been because it was a Tuesday and everyone was either still at work or in school.
I bought William a Kirby shirt from Hot Topic for his birthday, and bought myself a tote bag from American Eagle Outfitters and some good smelling stuff from Bath and Body Works. I felt bad finding out that Traver was tired sleepy, so I made him sit while I walked around each store. Sadly he had to go back to work at 6. My poor Travy :( I hope he gets a lot of rest tonight!

Shopping really did improve my mood. I was getting irritated because I beat Final Fantasy 9, and I watched all the t.v shows I could, and am practically done with all my summer work for school, so I was at home doing nothing. I'm not used to doing nothing... At college I would always be either hanging out with friends or doing schoolwork. Walking around was definitely a breath of fresh air for me.
I wish William were still here so we can go bargain hunting. He went to TJ Maxx last week while I was still at school, and now he's off on a school trip.
Well, pretty soon, I'll have stuff to do too! I'll be going to D.C with Traver and Adrienne, then to Bin's house to the Outer Banks with Nate and Ashley! I can't wait!

[edit]

Oh man, I realized how long it's been since I've updated this thing! I must update it with some...CUTENESS OVERLOAD! Hahaha nah, it's more of just a photoshoot I did with Traver for Si to help him with expanding his photography skills. It actually turned out okay, except for a few where I looked fat. I'll post a few pics on here:







Si did a pretty awesome job at taking pictures!! This can be his advertisement, heehee ^_^
