| I don't really know how to start..... To explain the thoughts and emotions that I have gone through this lovely month of May. What is it with this month.... That is really why I am getting married in June.. to try to get away from the May chaos. So here is where I start.. with a weird analogy.. I have teenage and adult acne. Me and one of my friends were talking about that the other day.. you really aren't spose to have both.. it should be either or... Maybe it has something to do with this inbetween stage I am in. Where I am a young adult. I am not really young and I am not really an adult. That really characterizes my month; there were times where I felt really old... and times where I felt really young. This past weekend I felt really old. I went to my brother's graduation and it was a whole weekend affair. Thursday night we picked up Jimin and Mr. Sam from the airport. Friday was bridesmaid day.. (yea! felt normal then). then came graduation day.. then I felt really old. You know when you come to the point where you talk more to the grown-ups then the teens. I love Joel's friends but I was the OLDER sibling.. (the crazy almost married one), but all the adults wanted to talk to the other adults that were "losing their children" so I didn't really fit there either. Jimin wanted to spend a lot of time with her dad.. so most of the time I was in that akward stage. I am so proud of them though... They have that sense of adventure.. college is going to be great for them. I remember when I couldn't wait to go to college... now I can't wait to get out. Which takes me to the first and second weekends. Watching my friends (not all of them.. I still have Kelly and Alicia) graduate. Then I felt really young. They started their forevers.. and I was still stuck in the inbetween. Watching Caleb and Emily get married. They don't have to wait anymore for their forever. I wish them so much happiness.. but I still can't wait till its my day.. I don't think I would want to get married as early if I hadn't met Andrew though... He makes me excited about marriage... because I love him. Once again that whole young/older thing.. The third weekend was my anchor... recital the only thing that didn't make me feel either really old or really young.. the thing that is where I am.. Yea! I love those kids. It was really a great month.. I got some planning done. (yea!) spent some time with some great friends.. and kind of reminded myself to live in the present.. the future will come.. the past is over.. so that is really all you can do. Love, me | | |
| Wow.. I really haven't updated in forever... I can't believe in two weeks.. Andrew will have graduated college and I will be a SENIOR IN COLLEGE... that is insane.. I just graduated High School... well not really, I am super excited about next year but also a little sad.. I am really attached to this graduating class.. but as the wise words of Cassie... "you spend a year away from Andrew and get the rest of your life... big deal" she is awesome.. But it is the other people that I will miss too. It just won't be the same without all the crazy kids that adopted me as a freshman. and my family will seriously change... My brothers are going off to school... It has really been an amazing year though. lots of really happy memories. I just have to take that leap and know that God will carry me though the next section of my life.. I just got to jump... | | |
| Spring break on Saturday! Andrew was so excited today. I am so glad that they are going, I think they really need time to hang out and be stupid guys before Caleb gets married and they all gradute. But on one hand, I am going to be on the other side of the continent, doing Hurricane Katrina relief. Thats a good thing though.. girls find a guy that will let you be yourself... guys find a girl that will let you go on crazy guy trips. I am super excited but ya know the usual worries... 30 people cramped space, way too different personalities. But we will survive.. after all its only 7 days....It's so cute..my Mom is going with us... her only worry is that she has to go 7 days without my Dad.. aww.. well, I am going to take a nap... yea.. I love naps... | | |
| So.. I totally bought the dress today.. and by the dress... I mean the most expensive and most beautiful dress I will ever wore. but man,..its a beauty! I almost cried.. so here is my recent thoughts on the similarities between looking for Mr. Right and looking for the Right dress.
1. Some people go for the first one, others try a couple on and then fall in love with the first one they really love, and yet others will go to place after place and store after store.
2. Once you find "THE ONE" all others lose their appeal.. you just can't see yourself getting another.
3. There is one for everyone.. no matter what you look like or who you are. Other people have some strange tastes
4. You just know when you have found the perfect one!! | | |
| Sorry about my last post...I was venting a little bit :). I had the best New years. It was so much fun!I love celebrated with friends and fam... I went to the Georgia aquarium today... super loads of fun. lots of cute fish. My fav part though was when this little kid put his stuffed penquin in front of the real penquins... they thought it was real.. they wobbled up and kept looking at it. It was hilarous. Have a great day... Yea for a brand new year! | | |
