To Be Just Like You

There are plenty of reasons why I'd like to be like you, but I'll give you just a few reasons, otherwise we'll be here forever. You're passionate about everything you do. I may get passionate about some things, but every thing for you is an understatement. Like the way you watch your Eagle's games. You already knew this, but seriously, before you, watching football was probably the last thing on my mind. But you've taught me enough for me to understand the game finally. Only took a few years. Other than your passion, I'd very much like your work ethic and motivation. I'm far from lazy, but motivated, ehhhhh, I get what I need to and that's kind of where it gets left. You, you go above and beyond for everything. If there's a homework assignment you make sure you hand in a handwritten thank you letter to the professor for giving you the homework (hahhaha, ok, I'm exaggerating lol), but you might as well be doing that. Instead of just going with what people teach you, you go and do your own research (hence, why you're so good at arguing, I mean debating). But seriously, who else takes time out of their day to do stuff like that? No one else that I know, that's for sure. And finally the way you love others. When you say you love someone, it's apparent. There is no denying your feelings for them, people like your mom, brothers, dad, aunt, sisters, grandma, my family, it's all so apparent. Of course I like to mimic the little things you do or say, but that comes with having me as your annoying partner, because I really want to be just like you. My mom and I were speaking last week about you, and how you just catch people's attention. There is just some thing, and we couldn't put our finger on it (probably because there is so much), but the word she used could not have been any better. You are captivating! And in true Marc Colón fashion, I Googled the word to find the true definition.

cap·ti·vate
verb
  1. attract and hold the interest and attention of; charm.
    "he was captivated by her beauty"
If that doesn't describe you, or the things you do to others, I don't know what will. <3

With love always,
Becca

P.s. Yeah I Googled it, because I'm not kidding. I want to be just like you! And click on the bold words, enrapture is my new favorite lol. I am enraptured by everything you do <3

So close! We are so close to the end of the month. We've almost made it. I will finally have time off, and won't be as tired as I've been. Thank you love for sticking with me this month. I know it's been hard. With all of my sleepiness and staying on campus to get work done, even when we see each other, I feel like it lasts for just a few moments. There is also something super exciting about seeing our diplomas next to each other. For two, first-generation college students, we sure have done well for ourselves. Teamwork makes the dream work right?? I think so! It definitely helps to have a superstar on the team anyway. And by superstar, I mean Mr. Do-It-All-Himself-Colón. Thank you for being such a great teammate! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. I still don't know why you don't complain about the accent mark!

Sometimes we see, read, or hear things that we try to get across. For me lately, I've been trying to get across what young love means, and the beauty of it. Today, I came across another blog, where someone worded it in simplest form. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you Anonymous, I couldn't have said it better myself. " The question is asked: “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?” And the answer is given: “Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. "It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled but still clasped; their faces are seamed but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired but still strong with love and devotion. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.” " With love always, Becca Colón P...

Exactly one year ago today. The time has truly flown by. I've posted this video a few times before, but we're finally at it's anniversary. What a year it has been love! Crazy, to say the least. We legit spent majority of our first year together apart. It's okay though, we made it back to where we need to be. I love you bub! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. Looks just like Rachel from Suits haha.
