Over a year ago, Dilmer knew I wanted a small dog pet. My family has a German Shepherd mix female that has been with us for 8 years almost. She is a golden color and really big, so I wanted a small toy dog. I have always liked the small dogs they are so cute. One day he comes to my house and was holding a Shitzu dog. I was amazed he was all hairy and tiny... the cutest thing, but my mother didn't let me keep it. She refused to have another pet at home, because it would me a lot more responsibilities. I really wanted to keep him but I couldn't, I was devastated. Dilmer took "Jake" (as I named him) to his house and was took care of him; ones again he would bring him over for occasional visits. Around three months passed and Dilmer's family bought a home and they had to moved, so he asked me if I could keep Jake at my house while they got through the whole chaos of moving.

Jake came home and he was not well house broken and very shy. With the experience and help of our elder dog he was up and running and potty trained in a month. When Dilmer came back to take Jake back my mother refused, we had all gotten too attached to him. Until this day we still have Jake and he is like the baby of the family, he is very spoiled. The cutest thing is that since he is with our large dog, he also acts like if he was big and though too. When Dilmer visits us it is like he is visiting his baby, he is always playing with him, and it is cute. I guess it is a good sign that he would be a good care giver in a future.

It's so nice to see that Dilmer is always thinking of me. Always trying to spoil me with what I want. He is a sweetheart.

 

 

Aurora your still the one that makes my heart beat faster as I think of you. We have passed through so many odds in life, but we hold on tight to be together through better and worst. Together we can overcome anything and face the world with our face high, together we are strength and together forever it will be. Just looking at you I know I'm happy, because you light up my world. I can't imagine anything that has ever made me feel so good as when I am with you.

Half a week before Dilmer came back from his internship at Pepperdine University I left Los Angeles to San Luis Obispo to stay a week at the National Guard Camp for my Army JROTC class. Every day I used to wake up at 4 in morning (as it was mandatory) and think "I which I had him here, I miss him so much." I was in the field the whole day and as soon as we came back to our barracks (dorms) at 6:30pm I would rush into my room grab the cell phone and call him. At around 10 pm I would call him back to say goodnight to him. I would even feel butterflies in my stomach as I spoke to him.

When I came back from camp I was exhausted, no make up, my hair in a ponytail, a t-shirt and sweat pants. I remember the school bus dropping us at my high school and I just walked into my office in JROTC and I didn't see him. I walked outside and saw him standing there waiting for me. He hugged me and gave me a long kiss as if I was gone forever. I was in shock, he hadn't kissed me like that since we started dating not only that but I was looking so unattractive and yet he didn't care. The next day he told me he loved me, well I already said in my previous blog how he told me.

We were in our annual Camping week at the San Luis Obispo National Guard Camp when I turned 18 years old. It was the one of my best birthdays as I spend that whole week with her. On the way to San Luis Obispo it is a 6 hour ride in the school bus. We laughed, we spoke, we slept all snuggled in with her pink blanket, the time flew away so fast as we were having such a good time with each other. It was cute to just watch her asleep with her little blanket, she looked so beautiful even asleep.

Five days before my birthday Aurora started giving me a card with candy every day. The cards had love poems, quotes, or just simply a love letter. It was the cutest thing ever. She had planned this before we came to the camp as she printed the cards for each day. I guess you can really say it was the sweetest birthday ever as I got as gifts all my favorite candy.

I can't wait to marry Dilmer. It breaks my heart every time I need to say goodbye to him. Due to our tight schedules we only see each other 2 days a week or if we are lucky enough 3 times. I want to hold him in my arms and not let go knowing that I won't see him until 3 or 4 days later. It will be great when we finally marry to go home and know I will be seeing the love of my life. I love spending time with him, just the two of us enjoying each other's company.

It is funny but I realized that I was falling in love with him around three months after we started dating waiting for his calls. We where both in high school and he was on vacations. He was chosen to go Pepperdine University for a month to work and study there by an outreach program. Malibu is not far away from LA, but he could not travel to LA because the people in charge of them wouldn't let them (know the students where students where all minors). So every day after school I would go home and wait for his call. We spoke for over an hour every single day for the month he was gone. His cell phone bill for that month came out to be $400, so it got disconnected for like three days, yet he still called me from an unauthorized phone on campus. I can remember waiting for his calls at a certain time and if I didn't get them I would check my cell phone constantly for any missed calls. I saw how much I started caring and wanting him, it made me realize that I loved this guy. Never before had I had this kind of connection with any other male. In his experience he also considers starting to fall in love in this period.

When he finally came back a month later I was so excited. I remember that he came to school to visit me during lunch. He then took me to a private place and told me, "Aurora, you know.... I don't think I like you anymore." As I heard these words my heart stopped beating and felt as if my blood drop to my feet as they say, I thought he was going to end everything and here me the fool was in love with him. There was an ackward silence for like a minute or two as I tried to make an emotionless face, his next words where "I don't like you anymore, I love you." It was so great! I wanted to jump out of joy, knowing the love I felt was well returned to me. I told him I too felt I love him. Ever since that day we make sure to tell each other many times a day that we love each other.

Anyways yesterday I got to see him and I see him next on Sunday....I am ecstatic about it. I speak to him every day on the phone, but it isn't the same as seeing him. He is so sweet and caring; he calls me around 3 times during the day just to tell me he loves me. Then when he gets out of work we have a long conversation to catch up with each other to compensate or balance for not being able to be together every day.
