100. Describe the one perfect person you could love and be with forever.
Oh deary dear. Why not have fun. Let's see. He's taller than me, has nice hands, perhaps a clever smile. If I were to get very superficial I'd ask for dark hair and green eyes, but one can't have everything. There's something he's passionate about. He loves life - has time to really live. He likes to laugh. He can deal with me, see through me, and put up with me when I become a terror. He loves music and good books. Endless walks and talking. Somewhat more outgoing and a risk-taker to compliment my rather reserved personality. I don't know, lots of things... but the person I love forever is the person I love forever... and he could very well be nothing like that.
And on another note. Someone PLEASE reccomend to me a book or a song or something. I feel as if I have been listening to and reading the same things over and over again. Don't reccommend them to me because you think that I might like them, reccomend them because you love them. Okay?
