The Last Time


          Every Tuesday, (well, almost every Tuesday night) when I come home from work and take out the trash here in Indiana, I remind Marc to do the same all the way in Philly. We may be 4 and 1/2 hours away from each other, but we have the same trash day. As of next Tuesday, Marc and I will be doing normal husband-wife chores together. Who would've thought I'd be excited to take out the trash with my husband? Weird, yes. But I am. This time next week I'll be studying in the comfort of my own home, laying down next to my husband. I'll no longer have to look at the moon, and wondering what the moon looks like for him. It's the same moon, but does it look any different from where he's at? Probably not, but things like this make me want to just be at home with him. Marc had confidence in me that I'd be able to pack my things up here in no time and get my work done fast, and man was he right. Last night and this morning, I forced myself to get all of the work that I could done. I only have 1 online exam to do. I was even able to get almost all of my packing done today. I know I still have four more days here at IUP, but according to everything I have packed and all the work I have done, I'm ready to leave YESTERDAY! I can't wait for trash day next week! We'll be starting our own routines. Who is going to do the food shopping? Are we going to do it together? Do we only pick foods we both like? Do we both clean the house, or do we take turns? Will we make the bed together every day? So many things to consider, and it all begins Saturday night. I can already picture my sigh of relief as I lay down and turn to my side to see Marc laying down right next to me. <3

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. We will have an against-the-odds, everlasting, successful relationship! Why is that? Because I believe it <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.
