Finals are Finally Here

Honestly, I have had such a blast in my classes this semester but honestly I am in need of a break, even if just for a week. I'm sure we are all excited because with life (work, kids, etc..) it becomes exhausting. Lately work has been trying, some days are extremely busy, some days are just long. Between that, school and things I have to do on a daily basis, I just feel exhausted and sometimes a bit overwhelmed. I cannot wait to take my last final tomorrow afternoon and walk out here like I'm gone forever. Haha. I am so excited, I even have my only day off next week planned :) I am going to wake up super early, get my hair done, my nails done and a massage and facial. I may even decide to treat myself to lunch and a movie or even a new outfit for a job well done. Sometimes, we all really need some me time and mine is much overdue. I am sure we have all done well and I hope all of you enjoy your time off as well.

Car Troubles

Oh boy, the title says it all. We have all been there, pretty much done that. Over the past few weeks my car has been acting up but of course, last week, on my way here my car decided that she wanted to just stop close to the mall. Ughh, luckily enough I live right next door so I sputtered home and waited. I'm still working on trying to get my car fixed. Hopefully I will have her back soon.

I am so lucky to have a great boyfriend, family and roomies to help me out while without a car or else my butt would be catching the bus and walking everywhere. I consider myself blessed because I remember being without a car before and it is such a hassle but people do it everyday so honestly having a car is a blessing because it absolutely a luxury and very convenient.

It's just frustrating relying on others because I hate feeling like a bother or like I am inconveniencing someone else but sometimes we all just need a helping hand.

Wedding Bells

It is almost every girl's dream to get married one day and like most, I have been planning mine since I was like...yea, FIVE! Although a lot has changed since then, I still know I want a princess wedding. Anyone who really knows me, knows how much of a perfectionist I am and seem to think I am going to be a Bridezilla.

Me? A Bridezilla? Never. Okay, well maybe but not because I'm mean or anything, mainly because I want everything to be perfect. Yes, I do live in the real world and yes, I do understand that not everything will be perfect and go off without a hitch but a girl can hope can't she?

Well, before I keep rambling, I'm pretty sure the question on your mind is what the heck made this girl think about her wedding. Maybe you are asking that, maybe you're not, who knows? Well, I only started thinking about it because last night randomly, my boyfriend asked me if I'm ready to be Mrs. Johnson soon? Needless to say, I was taken back a little but super excited because that means he's thinking about it and somewhere in that adorable head of his, he knows he wants to spend the rest of his life with me, lucky him. I'm just kidding, lucky me :) Anywhoo, I tried to contain my excitement and play it cool but inside I was like, "Aww, yay!" I was like, " Of course I am. How soon is soon? Soon as within ten years soon? Within five years soon? This year soon?"  All he kept saying is soon. It drove me nuts, but I'll accept it. I wouldn't want to rush it. For people who don't know us or our relationship that well, may think we are nuts. We have only OFFICIALLY been dating for four months this month but we have known each other for quite some time. As I mentioned in an earlier post, with him, I know it's forever. There is something different about him and the way he makes me feel. He is the one and only person I have ever loved and been in love with and honestly it does not terrify me one bit to spend the rest of my life with this man.

Knowing him, it will be over the top sweet. He makes everything a production from asking me to be his girlfriend to spontaneous date nights, he never ceases to amaze me and surprise me. I can't even imagine what his proposal would be like and I've told him before that when I am proposed to, I don't want anything cliché. I want something meaningful to both us that no one else really understands. Plan a picnic at the place where you held my hand for the very first time and ask me there; something like that. Something small and deeply meaningful. I can't help but feel happy because I can't imagine my future without him in it.

I hope wedding bells are in my near future. Fingers crossed.
