Things to Read (Again): One Sentence Stories

Way back at the very beginning of One Happy Panda I wrote about One Sentence, a website devoted to telling stories in, you guessed it, one sentence. Yesterday I was flipping through some of the "stories" on love and I thought it would be fun to share a few more.

True Love, in a sentence...

"I don't care if your last name is a word for a genital condition, I still love every little thing about you." (romantic?)

"I would have never have met my true love if it weren't for my sudden desire to plant turnips." (so random)

"Our hug may have only lasted for ten seconds, but my smile has lasted for weeks." (I love hugs)

What's your one-sentence love story, if you could write one?

You can check out One Sentence for more single-sentence stories (some are cheesetastic or sort of cliche, but there are definitely some good ones in there).

One NICE Website You Should Visit.

If you are having a long, annoying day like I am you should definitely go check out the blog Operation NICE, like, right now. Operation NICE is devoted to encouraging people to be "proactively nice" to others. It is one of my favorite "daily" blogs and I go there every day for a little niceness inspiration in the form of stories and suggestions for nice things I can do in my life. I love having a website to visit that is always upbeat and full of good news about nice people doing awesome things, and I love the daily reminder to be nice to others. Definitely check it out if you get the chance.

What's one nice thing that you have done for someone lately? It can be big or small, just spill!

One very small wedding...

I've always said that if I were to get married some day, I wouldn't want a huge wedding. I know some of my friends want a wedding where they invite everyone they know and some people they don't- but I've always wanted something a little more intimate. Just the people we know and love most. But what about a wedding with no guests? Sound crazy?

Well that's exactly what Donna and Kevin did. They knew some of their invitees would not be able to attend, so they chose to have a really intimate wedding with...just the two of them.

Check out some of their photos:

Such a beautiful wedding, no? We need a big collective aww.

You can check out more pictures at Snippet & Ink and hear about how they told their families and friends about their secret wedding.

Would you ever consider a private wedding? Or do you want a big affair? Or, if you've already gotten married, how many guests did you invite?Leave it in the comments.

And don't forget to check in tomorrow, where I'll be sharing the hairstyle I tried tonight that did not work out at all. Including all the embarrassing photos (hint: think Chewbaca).

All photos in this post were via Snippet and Ink via Mimmo + Naz.

I love you more than I love this blog post...

Have you all seen this website yet? It's a whole blog filled with "I love you more than ____" statements, all contributed by the readers.

Here's mine:
Mine is naturally the one about gelato, Jeni's gelato no less. A whole year of it. Just in case you're reading, Nathan, that's a LOT of love. I would probably die if I had to go 365 days without my Jeni's fix so, that's basically saying I love you more than my life.

I'm currently searching the site for my Nathan's post. He sent one, but he didn't tell me which it was. So I'm on the hunt.

I love you more than I love blog comments, but leave a comment telling me how you'd answer this anyway.

Quote of the Day

Today I was fiddling around in the blogworld and found this...

Le Love

Such simple and sweet words to live by, no? And yet, when you think about it, not always an easy thing to do.
