*Look
At
This
Guy!*

The man in the picture is my darling Ryan. My love for him is beyond mere words.
We have been best friends for a while and "officially" a couple for more than
a year. Ryan and I share everything. Usually a day doesn't pass where I don't
see him or at least talk to him. I love spending time with him. He is my soulmate.

My Favorite Memories
* * * I am going to write about everything that comes to mind,
in a non-sensical order, so don't be alarmed if you don't understand.
Unless you're Ryan, whereas you should at least pretend to remember
the following! * * *
*We went shopping one time and out of nowhere Ryan asks me
if he could try on dresses, too, since I was. (I'll NEVER
forget this!)
*The first night of Looney Toons Moot '99 when Ryan, out of pure joy,
picked me up out of the blue and twirled me around : )
*When we went to go see. . . what movie was it?. . .(I seriously
cannot remember, Ryan!) and we could NOT keep our hands off each other.
*Skipping down St.Paul Street on a beautiful summer day and kissing
at each corner.
*Talking on the payphone to Ryan from Queen's University
and saying "I love you; I love you; I miss you" simply because
there wasn't much else to say and because it is difficult to
think of things to say when the phone is counting down the minutes
you have left on your phone card (quite rapidly!).
*Lying in bed and singing "You Are My Sunshine" to Ryan
*The wedding reception for Ryan's cousin from England (hee hee :) )
*Shopping for my birthday cake up north and having Ryan and his
friends sing me happy birthday (you're all sweeties!)
*Going out to breakfast at the Starlight extra early
*Walking down the driveway on a whim, one clear winter night,
looking at the stars and keeping each other warm, enjoing the
crisp air and the eerie scenery.
*Spending an ENTIRE day out in the wheat field after returning from a week in Brockville with Becky! :)
*Making Ryan drive at Mach 3 in an old Pontiac to come pick me up after spending a week at Queen's University and taking the bus back so I could get there faster.
*Huddling together on those godawful steel chairs our Rover Crew has at our first Snow Moot :)
*Ryan rushing me down to the emergency room, without any warning or anything! :)
*Spreading a blanket out under a big Oak tree... :)
*Going to Cam's cottage and taking a midnight stroll out along the beach... :)
*Lying in bed and seeing forever for the first time... :)
*Not laughing at Ryan when he ended up in Pickering while trying to get home from Canada's Wonderland!
*Cooking a HUGE salad bowl full of pasta for us on Valentine's day (February 13th actually)
*Falling asleep on Ryan's shoulder through almost every movie we watch. :)
*Getting EXTREMELY irate at Ryan because he got too caught up in Pulp Fiction that he stopped paying attention to me!!! :( It's okay Love, I still want YOU more than any movie! :)
Watching a clockwork orange for the first time... then watching it ALL THE WAY THROUGH a month later! :)
*Our first cottage experience! We tried SO hard to be good... :)
*The one cast party where Ryan signed my chest "I LOVE YOU", and then ended up wearing my costume! :)
*All the little spats that have never lasted more than a couple of hours...
Playing pool in Smithville while our folks danced to some country band or another. This was pre-couple time. (Were we ever so YOUNG?!?)
*Our first date - going to see Jerry McGuire at Fariview Mall cinema's with my mother driving! (But it wasn't really a "date" LOL :) )
*All the times, when as kids, we would pretend to be "grown-ups" by daring to sneak kisses on the cheek! (What rebels we were! :) )
*The night in Ryan's basement when we started going out. I was so flustered! I couldn't help it! I told him I loved him... and I meant it! :) (Though I don't think I REALLY knew what it meant at the time...)
*I love Ryan*
