Rapunzel, Rapunzel


          I'm trapped in a hotel!! Haha just kidding. But seriously, I'm in Philly. No dog, no husband, what has the world come to?? I'm just saying, this is weirder than I thought. Apparently the other seniors on this trip are feeling the same way. At least I have others around me constantly repeating, "Three more weeks, three more weeks" along with me. We've all been talking about what we'll be doing after school, where we'll be living, and it's honestly just showing me, we're really growing up babe. So often, I still feel like a 15 year old still, and yet, I remind myself, Becca, you're about to be a college graduate, you're married, when school is over you'll be working, and you'll be living with your HUSBAND! We're definitely young, but we're still growing up. Eating crappy food during undergrad, and lack of sleep will all be worth it when we're both working great jobs, toughing out the world standing side by side, and happy to be doing it all together. I hope you had a great day at work today and get home safely. Oh, and when we entered Philly I witnessed the traffic that makes you so angry everyday haha. Just another reminder of you that I got today. I'm telling you, legit everything reminds me of you. Like I just ate an orange, and I can imagine us two weekends ago when I asked you if you could juggle as I threw apples and oranges at you. I clearly need to grow up still haha.

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. How excited are you for me to come home??? Huh? Huh?? I need a nap, I'm delirious.

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.
