Lincoln and Love.

Well, I've spent a lovely few days with my Tom. Our usual meetings normally consist of lying on the bed or sofa, because we normally become incredibly lazy. We don't get to see much of each other, since we're living in two different places now and we're at two different universities, but we make it work. The thing about having a long distance relationship is we tend to look forward to seeing each other, because we haven't done so for a week or so. I know that it certainly gives me something to look forward to.

This time though, we actually made it out of the house and decided to climb "Steep Hill" in Lincoln. The name pretty much says it all. Lincoln is famous for swans (because there are so many of them they will eventually rule the city) and the cathedral. The cathedral is an absolutely amazing building, it's grand and the architecture is unlike anything I've ever seen. To get to the cathedral, you have to climb an incredibly steep hill. Who needs the gym? It's worth the climb because at the top of the hill is another side to Lincoln which makes the city truly incredible. It's quaint, pretty and historic. It's an escape from the rest of the manic city. There are many tea and coffee shops, as well as chocolatiers and cute shops. There are many restaurants which can be incredibly romantic at night. It's like being in a different city, unlike the student side of Lincoln which is placed conveniently at the bottom of the hill.

Somehow after the huge walk which we embraced, we wasn't tired as we stayed up talking until 6am. There's a quote from "Friends" which reminds me of this situation. Joey does the same with a girl who he's fallen for, before Monica exclaims "you've had the night!" Well, we pretty much did just that. I find it incredible how you can be around a person for so long and it doesn't get boring. I've taken it as a good sign. I'm not sure if you've noticed, but the appearance of my blog looks suddenly different. Cool huh? Credit goes to Tom who taught me to use photoshop. I don't want to be one of those girls who constantly writes about how amazing her love life is, because those sorts of posts just do my head in. This is a one off, and it seemed like a good opportunity for me to promote the beautiful city of Lincoln.
