Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Vestibulum ultricies aliquet tellus sit amet ultrices. Sed faucibus, nunc vitae accumsan laoreet, enim metus varius nulla, ac ultricies felis ante venenatis justo. In hac habitasse platea dictumst. In cursus enim nec urna molestie, id mattis elit mollis. In sed eros eget nibh congue vehicula. Nunc vestibulum enim risus, sit amet suscipit dui auctor et. Morbi orci magna, accumsan at turpis a, scelerisque congue eros. Morbi non mi vel nibh varius blandit sed et urna.
            
             

                
ucibus eros, sed viverra ex. Vestibulum aliquet accumsan massa, at feugiat ipsum interdum blandit. Morbi et orci hendrerit orci consequat ornare ac et sapien. Nulla vestibulum lectus bibendum, efficitur purus in, venenatis nunc. Nunc tincidunt velit sit amet orci pellentesq
             

             

                
Quisque vulputate mi id turpis luctus, quis laoreet nisi vestibulum. Morbi facilisis erat vitae augue ornare convallis. Fusce sit amet magna rutrum, hendrerit purus vitae, congue justo. Nam non mi eget purus ultricies lacinia. Fusce ante nisl, efficitur venenatis urna ut, pellentesque egestas nisl. In ut faucibus eros, sed viverra ex. Vestibulum aliquet accumsan massa, at feugiat ipsum interdum blandit. Morbi et orci hendrerit orci consequat ornare ac et sapien. Nulla vestibulum lectus bibendum, efficitur purus in, venenatis nunc. Nunc tincidunt velit sit amet orci pellentesque maximus. Quisque a tempus lectus.
             
        
    

So basically I just made another div to wrap the pink and yellow, and I make that div have a float:left on it. The blue div has a float:right on it.
