There comes a point in a guy's life where he meets a girl who makes him do things he doesn't normally do. For example when Brad Pitt met Angelina Jolie, he started being a father to a Cambodian individual - something he does not normally do pre-Brangelina. I've met Rachael, and she makes me do things I don't normally do. Not something that is completely incongruent to my lifestyle such as parenting a Cambodian kid. But nicer things...

Rachael makes me... (yes I have a whole list)

- smile like an idiot to myself.
- blog about mushy stuff like this.
- wish I had a good singing voice so I can serenade her. With songs like... Don't Want You Back by Eamon. I mean, All My Only Dreams by The Wonders.
- feel like my day is incomplete unless I talk to her and wish her good night.
- want to actually go to school everyday.
- want to actually go to school everyday without looking like a total idiot. Meaning I dress up and do my hair. I know, guys, surprising right?
- do my homework because I don't want her to be with some slacker shit.
- look at women's shoes or clothes and think, "Oh Rachael would like this."
- think that no other girl will ever be good enough for me again.

These, coupled (HAHA see purposeful word choice there) with the fact that she's such an amazing person makes me realise that I am going to love this girl with all my heart. And I'm gonna give everything to make her happy.

So I asked her to be my girlfriend. And she said yes :)
