5 years ago today F.B. & I first said "I love you." 5 years ago today we decided to start this relationship. April 1st, 2004 was a defining moment in our relationship. We've been through so much together in these past 5 years, and I look forward to our future together...
I've decided to name a category on my blog: 'The Beginning'. If you click on it it will bring up key stories on how F.B. & I began our relationship.
Music has always been a way for us to connect and express our feelings for one another. It's been a way to stay close even when we are so far apart. F.B. & I would send each other mix CD's in the beginning of our relationship. One year we compiled our favorites onto a CD and called it: 'The Best Of: Mahal Mix'. ('Mahal' means love in Tagalog.) I wanted to share the list of songs that's on our 'Best Of' CD. There are links to Amazon.com where you can listen to a preview or purchase the songs.
4. She Will Be Loved: Maroon 5
5. A Thousand Miles: Vanessa Carlton
6. The Reason: Hoobastank
7. It's Gonna Be Love: Mandy Moore
8. I'll Be: Edwin Mccain
9. Wait For Me: Rebecca St. James
10. Iris: Goo Goo Dolls
11. Naked: Avril Lavigne
12. Beautiful Soul: Jesse McCartney
13. On The Way Down: Ryan Cabrera
14. Happy Together: The Turtles
15. Unwell: Matchbox Twenty
16. Passenger Seat: Stephen Speaks
17. If You're Not The One: Daniel Bedingfield
18. For You: The Calling
There are also a few albums that really stand out to me. Whenever I listen to them I'm reminded of how our relationship began 5 years ago and how far we've come.
A Walk To Remember: Soundtrack
A Walk To Remember: Soundtrack, was one of the very first albums F.B. & I shared and listened to. It just fit for the feelings we were starting to have for one another.
Michelle Branch: The Spirit Room
One of the first private messages I ever sent F.B. I quoted some lyrics from the song 'Breathe'. It was also the first song I ever played on the guitar for him over the phone.
Michelle Branch: Hotel Paper
'Breathe' & 'Desperately' were song lyrics F.B. shared with me. We both had Michelle Branch's albums and it became a way to connect with each other by listening to the same music.
Maroon 5: Songs About Jane
This was one of the first CD's I went out and bought after F.B. recommended it to me. He would quote Maroon 5 lyrics to me sometimes. And 'She Will Be Loved' is one of our favorites.
Congratulations!
