When given a choice, is it the right time or the right person? They say it will always be the right time with the right person. At this moment, I don't mind who it is or when it will be. I know for...

Call me materialistic but my receiving love language is receiving gifts (second to words of affirmation).But really, for blogging's sake, I just enjoy compiling a list of what I like to be gifted with on my birthday in a blog post. After a...
