May?? Whaaaat

when did this happen

It's May! T minus 25 days (aaaah!) to the wedding.

And graduation, it is soon also. T minus 10 days. That's two exams, two finals, one lab, two lab reports, and one short paper. That's 2.5 more days of class, or 8 class sessions to attend.

I like writing all those things down, so that I can check them off. It makes me feel good about myself.

So, May. Wedding is soon. In a few days, we will start contacting guests who have not replied yet. We've been working on the timing of the wedding day, and many little details. Cake is about done, MC is chosen, decorations are getting there, final dress fittings are happening. 

Engagement photos are done, and being edited. I got a sneak peek of a few of them, and I love them! The fiance is definitely handsome :)

The program is almost done, the slideshow still needs work, music needs to be selected, and timing needs to be settled...

But it's coming along, and it's moving fast. 4 weeks from today, we will be departing on our Honeymoon cruise. Yay!

A little while. I meant to post like at the beginning of February, and then life happened. This semester has been so busy, with school and wedding plans, plus more recently Spring Break Trip plans.

I got baptized at the beginning of February. It was totally unplanned, and a little crazy. But I want to have a real relationship with God. Aaand, I haven't gotten there at all... But, I am somewhere. And there were a lot of friends there to witness it. It was something I am really glad that I did. I'm glad I didn't chicken out for the upteenth time.

Wintervarsity, I talked with a friend during a quiet time, and determined that I am really bad at listening for God. I don't often like silence, and I can't usually make my brain shut up. I very easily start thinking about the next thing that needs to be thought about. I don't just sit and rest in God, or even just sit and rest. My head is going nonstop. And it's just so much work...

There was also Soiree that happened, and that was pretty much fabulous. My wonderful fiance drove me there, walked me in and even served my table :) It was a wonderful evening!

I also went snowboarding for the second time in my life, and I did a lot better second time around. Though, I still am terrible :P

I also got to see one of the foster babies that are currently at my sister's. He was adorable... so cute!

Wedding plans are going swimmingly, about as well as they can with me in school. Dress fittings happening soon, but not all of the dresses are in. Paper for invitations has been gotten, but all the paper stuff isn't ready to be sent to the printer's yet. Registry is almost complete (people have even started buying gifts :D ). And the cake still needs to be planned. Also, I still need shoes. Those are important. And bridal showers are happening soon, which I am excited for! It will be super fun :)

Really, there's a lot done already. It's mostly getting to the fine details now. Though, I fret and worry over those details. I need to take more deep breaths...

So, anyway. That's a brief ramble on how life is going. Spring Break trip is happening soon, and then Spring Break break, and then back to school... almost done though.

So. It's break. Been break for a while. It's been soooo nice... to sleep.

And other stuff too. 

Christmas was wonderful, though not like past years. I visited my fiance's family in the morning, and he visited my family in the afternoon. It was a very enjoyable day. My mom baked a turkey covered in bacon.... it was delicious.

I was able to have my annual Christmas party with friends. Some college friends but mostly high school friends. It was good to see them all, most of my interactions with high school friends consists of facebook and the occasional online chat.

I will always be friends with them, but I will probably never be what I wish I was - a confidant, a close friend, something like that. Though, I'm a little better at talking and opening up than I was in high school. Imagine, changing in college.... (sarcasms...)

It's weird putting two very different groups of people together. Engineering school and ... most definitely not sciency at all school. English majors with Chemical engineering majors. What does one talk about? But my friends are all so friendly, it worked well. Maybe the two different groups didn't become besties, but that's perfectly fine, cuz why should they do that anyway?

Ok, I'm rambling. End ramble.
