Congratulations to Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, the first Canadian and North American Olympic gold medallists (and the youngest) in ice dancing:
What a gorgeous dress too.

Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:
Let us hold the die uncast,
Free to come as free to go:
For I cannot know your past,
And of mine what can you know?
You, so warm, may once have been
Warmer towards another one:
I, so cold, may once have seen
Sunlight, once have felt the sun:
Who shall show us if it was
Thus indeed in time of old?
Fades the image from the glass,
And the fortune is not told.
If you promised, you might grieve
For lost liberty again:
If I promised, I believe
I should fret to break the chain.
Let us be the friends we were,
Nothing more but nothing less:
Many thrive on frugal fare
Who would perish of excess.

about me
- rachel
- I wear skirts almost every day and I don't own a pair of dress pants. I believe there's a Simpsons quote for every life situation. I love big dogs and salted caramel (but not necessarily together). My favourite colour is turquoise. I shop, I eat, I read, I take photos. Who am I? Find out more.
