What a week!

Ok, so as always..my life is extremely hectic. Let me tell you its no easy task to go to college, do homework, have a social life, and spend time with your loving fiance. So much has happened since my last blog entry...Matt and I redecorated the apartment. That was so much fun! I went shopping for wedding dresses..and so much more..let me start with Monday and shopping for dresses.

On Monday last week, my MOH Tamela and I went to Paducah to try on some wedding dresses for me. It was a nice day off, we went to TGI Fridays..had a very flirtatious waiter, some good food, and a good time. :) We were planning on giving him a fake number, but we forgot..lol. After we ate we went to Davids Bridal. All of the dresses were gorgeous..I tried on 3. It makes me want to get married..like..now. I wanted so badly to buy one..but I have to wait til I can get some moneys..plus I suppose it is kinda early to buy one.

Ok, so the rest of the week was very fast..lots of meetings, homework, and an INTERVIEW on Friday! Oh my..my first real interview. I want this job so bad. I am supposed to hear from them the end of this week..My fingers are crossed. I felt like the interview went well though, I hope that I am right. :)

Now for the weekend. Friday night, Matt and I went to ShoGun for some sushi with our other friend also named Matt. We had a pretty great time. :) After that, we finally got to have some time just with each other, which I must say was amazing.

Saturday we ended up not really doing anything..I did get some organization done and studied for a test though. Also on Saturday night, we re-imaged my hard drive and worked on installing Windows 7, all while playing Rock Band 2. So much fun! Sunday we finished installing everything and getting it reset up with all of my stuff.

So that is what I did this weekend. I have to say that this weekend has been the most relaxing weekend in a long time. It was also very nice because the past two weekends Matt has had to work on Saturday. I am feeling pretty relaxed, I will be more relaxed when I find out about my interview though! Until next time..Peace!

New Year, New Semester

Ok, so I know its been a long time since I posted, but my Christmas break was extremely hectic. Overall it was ok..I really missed Matt and all of my friends alot. I got pretty much everything I wanted for Christmas..so that was great! I had a really good New Years Eve too.

So now I am back to school and back in the swing of things. :) As of yesterday, I have been to all of my classes and I really like all of my professors so far. I think this is going to be a good/interesting semester.

I am also pretty excited that I can soon start browsing for wedding dresses. I know that I won't be able to buy one for quite some time but seriously..I am so excited that I just *have* to get out there and start looking!!! lol

Hrm. I suppose that this is all I should write for now..its time to do some last minute homework..already! Haha!! :) Yay for music terminology!!

Lately..

Wow..Its been a while since I last posted on here. Guess I am super boring and dont have much to talk about! Well here is a quick rundown of what has happened lately..

1. I won Tamela's Pay It Forward giveaway. She had some pretty great prizes! I got a really amazing burgundy and pink scarf..which is super warm and stylish! I also got some very sweet Madagascar Penguin Christmas socks. :) All so awesome! I will be starting my giveaway sometime after the holiday season.. :) So get ready for that.

2. I took some pretty ridiculous finals and I am eagerly awaiting yet dreading getting my grades for this semester. Sigh.

3. I came back home for the winter break..which brings me to the meat of this post...

Ever since I was very young, I have stayed home alone on breaks, Christmas, Summer, Spring..you know what all of the breaks are. Well, I have always had a great deal of trouble on these breaks. See both of my parents work about an hour away from my parents house, and now..so does my fiancé. I have always hated breaks because it is so hard for me to be stuck at home alone..No one has ever understood why..even I have never really understood. I usually just thought that the reason was because I love to talk to people and I am an extremely outgoing person who could talk to a stop sign (not in a crazy way) if it would talk back. Well, this year I have thrown that out. I have stayed alone in my fiancés apartment alot this year..and never once has it even fazed me. I thought all of my worries were over..until now. Today is my first day all by myself again..Yes there has been a good deal of upset tears because I am so far away from my fiancé and that I am alone and I dont know what to do. As I decided to take a bubble bath, my staple for when I am upset, I had somewhat of an epiphany. I believe I figured out the reason that I hate to be alone. I realized that all of the important people in my life are at least an hour away from me..while I am here stuck out in the boonies all alone. All of these horrible fears and questions started flowing from my mind. What if something happened to me and I cant get help? Even if I could get help, it would still be a long time before someone got to me. I really do believe that this is where all my problems stem from. I love my parents so much and I want to stay home and be able to see them at night and stuff..but honestly it really hurts me inside. I want to ask to just stay in Murray with Matt..but I dont want them to take it the wrong way. I have no idea what to do here...I just really dont like this feeling. Well..I guess for now..its just time to scrapbook..

Traci

I'm Engaged!

Yes. Its true! :) My wonderful now fiancé proposed to me last night! Here is how it went...

Last night, Matt and I were planning on going to Wal-Mart with one of our favorite couples. As we were walking around picking up groceries for our "Thanksgiving Dinner" we are having on Sunday, Matt suggests that we all go out to eat. I am slightly surprised, but I don't think anything of it. So we leave wally world and meet our friends at ShoGun. We have our nice dinner, not too much out of the ordinary..(we did get some free sushi though). As we are leaving though, out in front of the restaurant, Matt asked one of our friends to hold my stuff. This on the other hand..completely out of the ordinary! Matt took my hands, held them tight, and began to tell me how important to him that I was and how much he loved me. Then he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! It was so special, and sweet. I love him more than anything I know. :)

Remember Remember the 5th of Novemeber

So I am super excited because with today being the 5th of November, we are having a V for Vendetta movie party. I made some chili cheese dip with rotel tomatoes. I am so excited to see how everyone likes it. We are supposed to have about 8 or so people over. I am beginning to just love our movie nights! Its always a whole lot of fun..everyone from the department acting silly and just chilling. I know that this post is completely random, but I am just over excited and mildly hyper! Anywho...I am just ready for everyone to get here!!!
