De Ja Vu

So, I have been pushing this day off for about as long as possible. It's not that I don't want to start, but I have enjoyed this summer so much. I always enjoy summer. Who doesn't? But anyways, tomorrow is the big day. The day where hard work begins. The day when sleeping in ends. The day when my schedule because anything but relaxing. School starts up again. It's kind of weird. This time, last year I was in Utah, preparing to enter BYU as a freshman. I didn't know the campus, I was unsure of my classes, and was jut beginning to get a feel for my surroundings. I find it ironic how I am in that same exact position AGAIN. Here I am, in Lafayette, IN preparing to enter a new school, one where I find the campus completely confusing and have no idea where anything is. I am just starting to meet people in our ward and figure out Lafayette little by little. It's like de ja vu. I am not quite sure I like it. Nor did I, a year ago, project me living her in Lafayette, being married, and starting a new life together for myself at all. I would have never imagined it to turn out this way, but that's the exciting part. You have no idea where life will take you or where God intends us to be. That is why you must be ready to welcome everything life presents you with. You will end up surprised, experienced, and ultimately filled with happiness. At least, that's what I am feeling right now. Complete bliss.

my lovely ladies

These are my girls,

Who always got my back.

I love them so much.

Seriously, I could not have done the wedding without them.

They did my hair, makeup, and helped so much with the decorations.

I can't thank them enough.

Kids these days.

Funny story for you:

The other day at work, I was eating cheese crackers with four 8 year old boys. All extremely talkative. One of the boys, Jason, started a very interesting conversation. A little ridiculous. This is how the conversation went:

Jason: You know Texas Chainsaw Massacre? Well I'm named after it. 
Me: Why would  you be named after that? How do you even know what that is? hmm
Jason: What? It's not scary.
Logan (another 8 year old boy): Only adults can watch that. They don't get scared. But kids do.
Jason: I don't get scared.
Logan: Does he kill babies?
Me: Definitely not. The movie isn't real.
Logan: Does he kill kids?
Me: Nope, it's not real anyways.
Jason: The movie took place in Arizona. Even though it says "Texas" Chainsaw Massacre.
(my favorite part)
Logan: Could he kill Jesus?
Me: No way, he couldn't kill Jesus.
Logan: That's because Jesus is in Heaven. But if he was in Texas, would he kill Jesus?



The conversation went on for another ten minutes, but then they started talking about Saw! Who are these kids?? They all said they have seen all those movies. I was a little --a lot--shocked.

Back to Reality.

Okay, I think an apology is required at this point. My blog posts have dwindled significantly this summer. Maybe because I had a WEDDING to plan. Or maybe because I have been playing, working, and planning non stop. Maybe because I couldn't think of anything to write on! But again, I apologize and vow to do better.

As of now, I am staring at the clock, waiting for 3:30 to roll around. Sadly, I have to work. After a long honeymoon in Fort Lauderdale and Provo, UT, I am back to the real world. No longer can I lounge around all day: Wake up at 11, eat breafy, hit the beach, take a nap till 5, each lunch, galavant through the city, eat dinner at 11:30, then pass out by 2. Man, it was great. But now it's time to get ready for school, back to work, clean our apartment, order our books, organize wedding supplies, and figure out insurances. Can I please go back to the beach??

Welp, it is time to get work done. More updates later.
