I am now obsessed with HJ-Story: Messages of Love. I downloaded the app, I know-- how corny of me. I just had to. You have no idea how looking at these little drawings made me feel. It made me feel like a youngin' all over again.
Have you ever come across some things that reminded you exactly of the little things from the past? Well, this is one of them.

One of my most favorite gifts was from my ex on our first Valentine's Day: Little Mermaid book because he knew my love for Ariel, drawings because he was an artist, Sour Skittles because it was his favorite candy, and the most thoughtful handwritten letter because he knew how much that stuff meant to me. He always liked to draw me random things that looked EXACTLY like these characters. And the last Valentine's Day gift he gave me were these classic print-outs of "Love Is..." comics with personal messages on the back.

And it's things like that, that make me realize how the fancy restaurants and materialistic gifts can never emulate to personalized hand-made gifts that truly come from the heart. My best friend's husband told me that you know a man is really into you if he uses his time to be crafty for his lady. I don't know if it's true, but I sure do know I only get crafty (and bake all night) for special guys.

So kawaii. I wish I could be young like that all over again.
