I haven't updated this diary much, even though now I have a boyfriend I could write about, because he may by chance come upon this diary and realize it's him I'm talking about... And that would just be awkward. So I'm not going to write about him. I'll just have you know that things are....perfect right now. And they're going to be for a long time. And I am very happy. So if he sees this... I just want him to know that. :)

So anyway... For all you others out there (all, like, two of you probably :) ), I probably won't be updating much. I'm sorry... Kind of. ;)

We're doing Jekyll & Hyde at school. It's so fun! I'm just part of the ensemble, but I seriously love it. I love musicals.

I just wish I could've been in Les Mis�rables.

Today's songs (or parts of songs):

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender.
There'll be no white flag above my ship.
I'm in love, and always will be.

Take Me As I Am

Look in my eyes.
Who do you see there?
Someone you know,
Or just a stranger?
If you are wise,
You will see me there.
Love is the only danger...

Love, meaning me;
Love, meaning you�
We'll make that one dream come true.
You know who I am.
Take me as I am.

That's from Jekyll & Hyde. It's "our" song from the musical. :)

The song I want to consider "our" song is "The Time of My Life" by Mark Schultz. It always makes me think of him.... Moreso now than ever because of Friday night when he was over at my house. He had me slow dance with him to it. :) It was a dream come true.... I'm still wondering why in the world God would bless me so much. Why?

Have I ever written the words in here to "The Time of My Life"? I don't think so. Here they are--it's kinda long:

The Time of My Life
Mark Schultz

He packed his bags when he was just 18
To see a world he thought he'd never seen.
He knew when he met her, she was the girl
He'd been waiting for.

And each night they spent talking on the front porch swing,
Like it came straight out of a movie scene,
Till one night she stepped out as the sun began to set,
And when she got to the porch, she found a letter that read:

"You're the only girl I'll ever love
And I'd do anything not to give you up.
If I could only stop the world
When you're standing by my side.
See, I'm having the time of my life.
Yes, I'm having the time of my life."

Months went by; it was a wedding day...
A church on a hill, wedding bells rang away.
She looked like a princess, dressed up in pearls�
It was her proudest day.

And he stood all alone in a darkened church hallway
And he got down on his knees and he started to pray.
He thanked the Lord for his family and the perfect bride;
Then he couldn't hold back what he was feeling inside, and he said:

"She's the only girl I'll ever love,
And I'd do anything not to give her up.
If I could only stop the world
When she's standing by my side.
See, I'm having the time of my life.
Yes, I'm having the time of my life."

Forty years went by and she lived most of God's plan.
She stood alone in an attic, wedding dress in her hand.
She'd hidden an old letter, written so long ago�
But she'd never forget it, no matter how old.
And as she turned to put the dress away
And pack up the years,
He was standing in the doorway with his eyes full of tears, and he held her....

"You're the only girl I'll ever love,
And I'd do anything not to give you up.
If I could only stop the world
When you're standing by my side.
See, I'm having the time of my life.
Yes, I'm having the time of my life."

You're the only girl I'll ever love....
