a modern day love story

August 1, 2008 in love: the kind you want to believe exists | Tags: , , | 4 comments

most of you who really know me know that i’m a hopeless romantic. i’m all about hearts and pink flowers, impossibly sweet quotes, fairytales, mushy chick flicks, love songs and the seemingly never-ending search for true love. while browsing through my tumblr contacts’ entries today, i found an entry which led me to the most delightful love story i’ve come upon in quite a while.

rosie‘s from britain and aaron‘s from the US and they met through flickr early this year. their common love for creativity and photography turned into love for each other. the 4,500 miles that set them apart didn’t at all stop them from expressing how crazy they are over each other. they set a day per week, collaboration sunday, where they do a photo together. a few weeks ago, he finally flew to britain and now they’re finally together. it’s sounds like it’s straight from a fairytale right? what makes this love story all the more charming are the pictures these two have come up with. you just can’t help but be awed by their amazing creativity and the uniqueness of their love story.

Rosie writes: We messaged many times every day, wrote an adventure book (you might want to click on that link 😉 hehe) together, stayed up talking on gmail for hours every night until it was light outside, then began doing the same thing except with phones. It has been two months since we became addicted to each other, and I have completely fallen. We’ve yet to meet, but every day our feelings get stronger and stronger. I need him, and I am counting down the days until this photograph is reality.

i’m currently obsessed with…

... victoria's secret lingerie (i really want to buy some and have them shipped here)
... tumblr-ing
... hula-hooping
... learning my old piano pieces again
... expensive stuff i can't afford
... still being kissed ala north & south

That’s the closest to my idea of love: watching the skyline, making out, making mistakes, making believe desire means it’s with somebody else, then breaking up, and, if we’re lucky, forgiveness that comes right before take-off. There, I’ve said it. What more can one want? A lover who loves me as much as the rain. Rain, and, from the opening credits to the closing heart, Gershwin.
