Nice to meet you Christine Jane. :) We share the same interests except I'm not very good with DIY projects. I spent a ton of money to make a simple birthday gift, but all the misc parts for the gift are still in the mailing envelopes.
I love writing too, but find that I don't have much of a passion for it on here. Nothing sparks my interest much, but I try when I can. I can't write poems, but do enjoy reading them. I hope you get to meet your bf one day soon, I really do. :)
