| What does Love mean?
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8
year-olds, "What does love mean?"
The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have
imagined. See what you think:
"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name is safe in their mouth."
Billy - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and
they go out and smell each other."
Karl - age 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries
without making them give you any of theirs."
Chrissy - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
Terri - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before
giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."
Danny - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"
Emily - age 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening
presents and listen."
Bobby - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who
you hate,"
Nikka - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it
everyday."
Noelle - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends
even after they know each other so well."
Tommy - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at
all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling.
He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore."
Cindy - age 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"My mommy loves me more than anybody .
You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."
Clare - age 6
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken."
Elaine-age 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is
handsomer than Robert Redford."
Chris - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all
day."
Mary Ann - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes
and has to go out and buy new ones."
Lauren - age 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars
come out of you."
Karen - age 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean
it, you should say it a lot. People forget."
Jessica - age 8

| Be the guy who, will wrestle her and let her win, who she can talk to about anything, who laughs at her jokes, who tells her you love her & means it. Kiss her in the rain, sunshine and snow, realizes she says things when shes mad that she doesn't always mean them, go swimming with her on hot days and cuddle with her on cold ones. Be the guy who she can tell all her problems to and help her though them, who will not only listen but hears her when she talks, send her flowers for no reason at all. Let her beat you up when shes mad, write notes to her and slip them into her locker. Save your genuine big smiles for her. Let her wear you hats & sweatshirts, and when you give her a t-shirt to change into, expect not to get it back. Know her favorite color, song, car , perfume, and the color of her toothbrush. Call her by her full name when you get mad, know when something is wrong when shes doing her best to put on an act , look her in the eyes and tell her shes beautiful. Be her crying shoulder, hold her tight & kiss her forehead, surprise her and give her compliments. Don't be afraid to give her a huge hug or kiss when you feel necessary. Tell her she has a nice laugh and a smile that lights up the room. Finally, be the guy who sweeps her off her feet each and every day so she knows just how fortunate you are to have someone like her in your life.
Every boy should be like this. no excuses. :-P | | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment |
| so i havent updated in a while but i am just writing to complain about one thing. after checking everyone's college calendars i noticed that i am the last one to get out of school for the summer. and not only that but im at least 2 weeks behind everyone else in moving out. and none of us have the same spring breaks. booo. this makes me sad bc i have no one to vacation with when i am on break.
but anyway i am working and really bored because there is only one other customer here with me and katie. we're watching er (doctor green is dying) and obviously working so hard that i cant contain myself. i cant tell whether it is an overcast or nice day out. but i would imagine it is nice bc no one is in on the computers so that means everyone is at the beach. i get out of work at 3 and plan on sleeping after that. I have been in a depressed mood for the past couple of days so i hope that passes. (katie told me to "cheer up charlie.")
the summer hasnt been too bad so far. cape cod is in less than a month so i must say that moire and i are more than excited and then we are back to massachusetts the day after we come home. should be a fun time because it will be a much needed change of pace and our last vacay together before college and the garahan's move. :-(
the last guy just left so now katie and i are left by ourselves in our place of employment to talk about the random things we hate about our customers like all people do at work. and my boss is lazy and hasnt left her house yet and still has to go shopping. and all i have to say is that she better be back by 3 because we are bored out of our gourds and want to go home. but if it stays like this then tonight's people will have a blast....not.
be proud i upated and it was more than one sentence long!
my grad party is on Saturday July 2nd which is this weekend. so if anyone wishes to attend that i havent talked to just let me know because you are all more than welcome. just let me know bc i have to give you directions to the place. and if you are invited then you are more then welcome to bring a significant other or friend with you to enjoy the party. lol.
im off to try to lure people into the place so we have something to do...not. hasta. MILKMAN!! | | comments: Leave a comment |

| hola.
i have been up since 9:30. weird. i know. um let me think about exciting things to talk about. i really only have one. i saw rent last week and it was by far the best broadway play i have seen. the third row orchestra seats could have helped a little but the cast was amazing. drew lachey was mark...and he was actually amazing. then me and mo went to see the school play and that was great too. the cast for that play was really well picked too and kira did amazing.
other than that not too much besides the ordinary has been going on. i have been hanging out with my favoritest people in the world. moire, ali and i know how to have a good time. much to others dismay. :) i love christopher even though he is a loser...sometimes. haha. crazy times always.
Virginia tomorrow. im so excited. i heart going down to mary wash to see deirdre! and we get to meet her chris too, so i am told. yay. and i get to visit salisbury again with the garahans and this time JJ is coming too. should be a blast. and then saturday is moire's dance fundraiser. yayayayay.
i love vacations. they allow me to make it through school. but i still have to do a bunch of scholarships and start the nels project. boo.
anyways im off to begin my packing adventure and possibly go on an adventure with chris.

| today is like the weirdest day ever.
school in itself was odd.we debated a bill about fat children and decided that obesity is not a preventable disease in our eyes. haha. i took a 3 hour nap when i came home and got called by everyone and their mom. then moire, linds, and i went to applebees bc toms river is gay and there is nothing else to do.
we saw people today that we havent seen in ages.
you would think that after a year we would be over it. but they still make that nauseous feeling come back everytime their name is mentioned. we all got the feeling when we chose applebees but tonight i guess we were feeling risky bc we took our chances. put it this way god hates us. lol. i guess they are that one thing in high school that you will never forgot however old you get. the LBS.
on a greater note. we saw christopher, court, eric, a bunch of north people and like a bunch of people from our school. i mean come on we even fucking saw the Ramos. its all good though.
and we ended the night like we do every other. a ghetto dance off in the car with linds screaming out at the people around us while dropping our ghetto beats. we're hot. step off.
besides that piece of loveliness the night was otherwise uneventful.
count down til graduation is on. less than 4 and 1/2 months providing we have no more snow days. holler to that.
JJ's+18+summer=the greatness that is MALO.
hasta kiddos. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| heyy hooo! so im updating instead of doing homework yay!
I had a pretty good weekend actually even with the fact of the insanely large spanish project hanging over my head. I went to valerie's with mo and dee and had the usual amounts of fun we have there. ASHISH! and yes ashish was the clean one. and of course nothing could beat valerie throwing up all over the bathroom. classic. then yesterday i went to out to eat and to the movies with 3 of my favorite people in the world, courtney, christopher, and moire. We saw Spanglish and i must say that i reallllly like that movie. It was just one of those movies that kind of makes you thankful for who you are and who you travel through life with. It also makes you realize that sometimes even when you meet someone so special,it is possible that god didnt mean for you to be with them, no matter how hard that is to understand. all in all i recommend it.
we couldnt figure out for some reason how to turn into the movie parking lot that was classic. and i curbed something in the parking lot. praise to the heavens up above that we are still alive. haha.
i did a bunch of work on my spanish project due on wednesday. the joy.
went to the library with my daddy. i rented igby goes down. <3 to that movie.
my sister and i are boycotting the buying of project boards as they are ridiculously expensive.
My birthday is in 6 days. yay.
we dont have school next monday.
and i too an done with all of my college applications. yay. | | comments: Leave a comment |

| | woooord. christmas break is going by so fast. i am not ready to go back to school. ahhh. christmas was fun. got to see a bunch of people i hadnt seen in a while including my cousins who are honestly getting more insane by the day. got a bunch of cool stuff too from some of my favorite people. moire and i were cool and even played candyland and chutes and ladders on christmas eve. oh yeah. i love those games, but i am amused way easily so who knows. my sister got me the coolest harry potter pop-up book ever!! court bought me bridget jone's diary on dvd so hopefully we will be able to watch it sometime soon. haha you dont understand.yayy. and i got my favorite christmas movie ever on dvd <333. then on monday me, court, eric, and her uncle bill went to new york for court's b-day. we had a lot of fun but dear god it was cold man. we were all molested by the men at jekyll and hyde, walked around soho, went shopping and to times square. yesterday i went out to lunch with ali and court. it was fun bc we all havent hung out together in i cant tell you how long. then me and court went to the town meeting which was by far the worst one i have ever been to. oh well. then i hung out with chris.17 days until by birthday! i am so excited. today is the starting line/ early november concert. havent been to a show in a while so it should be good. other than nothing else is really going on except for a crapload of homework which i should get started on. anyone with good new years eve plans let me or moire know lol. otherwise we will have to resort to plan b...which may not be so bad after all. anyways, im out. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| | im updating bc i was asked to but i guess i do have stuff to say nonetheless. 13 days till christmas. yayyyy. we decorated my tree today and believe me one has never seen so many ornaments on a single tree. but i guess that makes sense since each of us get a new one each year and we have all the ones from my parents through the years. anyways, im actually doing really well on the whole shopping deal. i only have one and a half people to go, being i bought half of moire's already and have nothing for chris yet. well actually i lied...i still have to buy little things for the kids i tutor and then some other stuff for my ccd kids. but really not too bad either way. 9 days left of school, but i am sure they are going to be pure hell. i have to get started on the whole cba deal....riiiight. but its christmas....so it doesnt matter. oh and also i am pretty much as good as done with the college apps besides for 2 essays which i am writing tomorrow. holler. i get to drive daddy's car to school tomorrow bc mine is getting fixed. yayy. but im not going through the trouble of getting a temporary parking pass, so i will prob be called down to the office at some time. oh well. but i am off to do something besides write in this. night lovers. | | comments: Leave a comment |
