Finals week is this week!!!

This week is finals week and I am going to go crazy. I am so ready to be home. It's unreal how time flew this semester! I can't believe that it went by so fast. I love people here but I'm ready to be home. John's going to be so much closer now and I'm so excited!!! It's going to be great! My sister graduates about a week after I get back. So that's going to be fun. I'm gonna see a TON of family and I can't wait!!! YAY!! John's going to go with us there too!! Can't wait!! yay!!! Anyway.. I'll prolly have more to say when the week progresses when I'm not studying! :(

It's been a while... I know I know...

Sorry for not being here for a while. I have been so busy with stuff. Finals week is next week. This is the last week of classes. I got this unreal feeling all the sudden that I feel SO ALONE... I don't get this feeling a lot, but I don't like this. I want to be home. I haven't been home since Spring Break, and my mom and dad (and i think my sister too) are coming Sunday for Mother's Day. I am really excited that they're going to be here. I love seeing them. I miss them so much. Being married is going to KILL me because I want to spend time with them, but I am going to be married and something tells me that I won't see them as much as I want to!!! Fun, huh!!

About being married... I want to be married so bad. Waiting is just going to drive me crazy. I can't stand being away from John. The distance drives me nuts. I can't see him all the time. He is my better half. He completes me. He is the one that I want to spend the rest of my life with. I am so completely blessed to have him in my life and that he's going to be the one I'm going to build a home and a family with. It's just so incredible to think that he's MINE!! This is a great feeling!

I plan on being on more this summer when I have more time. My sister graudates 8 days after I get home. It's going to be so much fun!!! I can't wait. Next fall, we are going to be going to school together. But I don't think I could live with her partly because we'd ring each others necks. The other reason I don't want to take away from her college experience. She needs to know how to live with other people and not me. She already knows how to live with me. But I'll be here just in case she needs to move. Right now the dorm I live in is a dorm with 6 people in a suite. There's three people in a bedroom, and each suite has three bedrooms, one bathroom and a living area. I have a room mate and three suite mates. So if she absolutely needed to, she can move in our suite.

So I just found out a band called Secondhand Serenade. They're good! I like them a lot!! On www.projectplaylist.com I made a playlist of just their stuff! I love it!!! It's going to be over played! But I don't really care! I really like their stuff!!! It seems to be really talking about situations I've been on in the past and stuff I deal with now in school. It's unreal... It's almost like Dejavu moments!!! Wierd i know! Y'all should check them out!

It's been a while... SRY

Hey, readers. Sorry it's been a while. I have been busy and out of town a lot. I got back from Spring Break. John and I got engaged on the 27th of December with John. It was during my christmas break.

Here's the reader's digest version. My mom, dad and sister went out of town earlier that day to go to visit my mom's parents for christmas. I didn't go. I convinced them (somehow) to let me stay home because John was there and he had something planned that afternoon/evening. John and I went to J Alexanders in Nashville. We've been there before and LOVE it. They have great steaks! Anyway, after that we went to our favorite spot in Down Town, Love Circle. There's this hill on this street that you can get to the top of and see the whole skyline of Nashville. It's beautiful, especially at night. He had brought his video camera he had gotten from his dad at christmas. After a little while of being on there with him he started talking about how wonderful I am and all these romantic things and I started to cry. A whole bunch of people started to come up the hill after we had been there for a little while and we moved so he could see a good view when he proposed... And then he proposed, and I couldn't say anything so I nodded. haha. Then we started calling people... I spent about an hour on the phone calling people I wanted to know.

Now, we've been engaged for about 3 months, and I'm loving it. We haven't set a definate date yet, but we've gotten a general time period we want to get married. We both want me to finish school first, and we want to get married the summer after I graduate. I'm enjoying engagement, but it's making it hard because he's already graduated from college and is working now in Nashville, and I'm in school about 2 and a half hours away (I go to school where he and his brother both went... What a coincidence). I met John at my home congregation in Nashville through his brother (who I was crushing on at the time). That was Christmas break about a year ago. The, we had our first date the night before I turned 20. Yea, I know. What good timing, right?!?!

Anyway.... Spring break was this past week. We tried to hook John's brother, James, up with our friend, Katlyn. But he didn't show up because he was gonna break up with his girlfriend. So, we'll have to try to do that later. That's ok. This past weekend, we celebrated his birthday, his best friend's birthday (Mike is his name) and this other guy's birthday (Patrick) here close to school. I had a BLAST... It was awesome. I can't wait to do this again. This coming weekend, John and I are going to his dad's house. There's a reason for it, but it's kind of a surprise. So once I know something else for sure, I'll be sure and write about it. I can't wait. I hope that this works out. I'll try to post some things more regularly now that I'm back and I have a computer in front of me.

So I'm home now. I'm going with John, my boyfriend, to his dad's house this weekend. We're leaving tomorrow. I'm so excited! I haven't been out to Mississippi since Memorial Day. We went to visit and to go to his twin cousins graduation. It was fun... Well I take that back since they've been in school, I'm pretty sure... I can't remember .... lol that's the point.... Anyway... His dad's family lives in Ripley, Mississippi! It's an awesome place! I think that this is gonna be like their Christmas or something.... Just thought I would touch base with you readers out there. I haven't written anything since I have been home on christmas break...

This weekend was great! I spent the weekend with my friend Jackie. She goes to school with me and is dating my boyfriend's brother. We went to Wal-Mart (the best place for a nearly poor college student on a budget) three times this weekend. It was GREAT! We had lots of fun. She taught me how to crochet! It was cool! I really like it. We also talked about different things, and it was pretty cool!

This week at school is finals week... I get done on Tuesday and I'm SO EXCITED. I get to go home on Wednesday. I can't wait to go home. I've missed my boyfriend. He's my everything! I love him!!! I can't wait to be with him again. He's fantastic. We're supposed to be going sometime during my xmas break to see the lights at the Opryland Hotel. I can't wait!!!!

December 4, 2008

Today was pretty relaxing. I had only one class, and it was at 2:30 this afternoon. So I attempted sleeping in, but got up at about 9:30 or so. The night before, I didn't sleep well. I was in and out of sleep all night, and was up for an hour because my room mate's grandmother died. I sat up a few minutes with her, and then gave her some alone time. I tried to go to bed, but I was too hot. When you're hot natured, and your hot when you try to go to sleep, it doesn't work... haha But neway.... About today.... I had to write my own obituary for my 2:30 class (yea... it was an assignment for my basic reporting class... depressing, huh?) Anyway... I just chilled today and what not.. It was pretty relaxing. My boyfriend, this summer, got me on a Sims2 fix. He bought me the Sims2 Double Deluxe game for a moving back in present. I played that a lot today... I love it. I can't wait until Sims3 comes out next year! It's already on my christmas list for next year. I know.. PLANNING AHEAD!! But neway.. Just had to get that out of my sistem!

My First Post

So, I'm a junior at Freed-Hardeman. I have enjoyed my time so far here. I'm a Public Relations major, with a minor in Bible. I love what I'm studying. I never thought I'd find something that I would really REALLY enjoy that much until I got into PR. I owe some of that to my friend, Andrew! See... what had happened was I majored in PR before I really understood what it was. Andrew one sunday explained it to me at church. He majored in PR and had a minor in Bible too, but he went and graduated from Harding. After I started going to these classes, I fell in love! So, thanks Andrew!!! I am blessed to be in something that I love.



I also blessed to be in a relationship with a GREAT guy. His name is John. He's so fantastic. He's wild, crazy, a home body, fun, great christian guy, a gentleman, and everything I've been looking for. To be honest, I haven't really dated around a lot, but who all I have dated, I have never felt like this. I really haven't dated anyone who shared the same things I shared, who liked and enjoyed the same things I do, and someone who treats me so well. I love it! He's the best thing I could have ever asked for!!!!
