I heard that some people called my relationship with Will "miserable" and asserted that we must have no social life.
I have a couple of issues with that. First of all, I don't judge other's relationships. Also, I have always known that I enjoy different things for fun, and never have put down what other people do. I've just said that it's not for me. Saying
things of that nature reminds me of high school... and I expected us all to act like "adults" and handle things better!
So, back to the point. I was reminiscing with Will last night, we were trying to decide what makes us miserable and boring. Our first official date was flying an airplane to Athens, GA and throughout the past year and a half we have...
- climbed 4 moutains
- seen 1 gorge
- been to two different beaches
- 4 different airplane museums
- 1 airshow
- travelled to 4 different cities
- I learned to fly a stunt kite and will's airplane
- been to the symphony
- been to the fox theatre
- have eaten a ton of meat at a churrascaria
- 2 new years eves together
- bike ride dates to piedmont park in the morning :-)
- been to the north georgia mountains
- 1 backpacking/camping trip (my first!)
...and countless other good memories. Now, I realize that not everyone may enjoy these things, but I've gotten to try countless new things with him and broaden my horizons. I know some people may feel like college is the time to live it up because they'll never get the chance again, and this is true. They won't have a chance. But, I'm going to have even more fun when there's not schoolwork to hold me back!
