I have a feeling that this week is going to be busy. I have to coordinate plans, call people, delegate tasks and keep on top of everything. I'm going to ask friends to cook the food, plan my flowers with the florist, do my first hair trial, talk to musicians, and anything else that I can think of.

We are expecting to hear back from the property managers about the apartment we applied for. I really hope we get it. I'm praying that it will go well and we will be able to move in soon with no problems.

Christmas was wonderful!

We have been getting a lot of RSVPs the last few days. Over a hundred guests have let us know that they are coming. I'm getting really excited as the day is approaching.

I've been working on my room and sorting through my stuff. I finished sorting all my papers and class notes from the last five years. I still have a lot to do as far as packing but I'm glad that I'm making headway. I can't wait until we can start moving into our new place. I feel really excited about this one apartment and I hope we get it.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, a day that I've been looking forward to for a long time. I just wish I had more to give this Christmas.

We found a couple of nice apartments yesterday. We are filling out applications and then dropping them off tomorrow.

I've been making phone calls today and confirmed the church for the rehearsal and set up the night before as well as the wedding day itself. Now I feel like I can rest easier and plan my schedule for that weekend.

Now it is time to organize myself a little more, make a plan for what I'm doing next, and then work on my room some more. I'm looking forward to baking cookies tonight with the family. Christmas is here!

Well, I'm a little worried now. The friend that we thought was doing our food canceled on us. I'm hoping we get someone.

The last few days with Brandon have been great. I drove home Wednesday night and unpacked my car. Thursday I was sooo tired. Brandon threw me a surprise graduation party that night. I went out for lunch and shopping with a friend on Friday. I got all my attendant gifts. On Saturday I had my other bridal shower which was fun. My aunt and cousin did a good job.

Brandon and I are going apartment hunting today. I'm hoping that we can find a good place soon.

I haven't had a more upsetting day in a long time. I feel sorry for my family because I've been venting for most of the afternoon. I've been quite an angry little person. Most people would use a certain word to describe me but I purpose not to use that language.

Exactly a month until the big day.

I spent the morning packing up my stuff. I'm taking a break right now before some friends come and help me haul my stuff out to my car. Then I have to vacuum and check out of my room, take my final, go to dinner, say all my goodbyes, and then hit the road. I'm really looking forward to being home tonight and sleeping in my own bed.

I got all my assignments turned in yesterday. I took my poly sci final today and am feeling good about it. I have one more final tomorrow and then I'm going home. I'm taking this evening to hang out with friends. Then tomorrow I'm going to pack up, clean up, take my final and then drive home after dinner. It feels so good to be almost done.

I finished my paper earlier this evening. I'm really happy that I'm almost finished with school. Just three days until I'm driving home.

It's really starting to feel more like Christmas. I've been watching Christmas movies this week between assignments and studying. I can hardly wait until I arrive home because I know the house is decorated. It will really feel like Christmas then.

I've been working on my assignments and papers. I've been accomplishing quite a bit and now just have the one paper to finish and then I can start studying for finals. I can't wait until I get done. Hopefully I can get a good grade on this paper. I don't like research papers and for some reason I have a mental block right now. Maybe I can focus better after dinner.

All I can think of right now is how much wedding stuff I need to get done. People I need to call and stuff I need to order. I need for school to be over so I can get on with my life.

So I'm tossing around the idea of leaving for home right after my final on Wednesday. I'm kinda in a hurry to go home and see my family and Brandon.

I was really tired earlier today. When I'm that tired I get kinda emotional. So I took a long nap this afternoon which made me feel way better. But now I'm still wide awake even though it's bed time.

Today was my last day of class. It feels really good to be almost done. I have a half dozen little assignments and papers due on Monday, one final on Tuesday and one final on Wednesday. Then I'm done forever.

I'm really really looking forward to going home. One of the first things that I'm doing is going apartment hunting with Brandon. I can't wait to pick out our first apartment and put down the first month's rent. I'm so excited about getting our first place and turning it into a home.

I had a really good day today. I took my volleyball final and aced it getting an A in that class. Then in stress management my teacher asked me and a few other students to stay after class. I was wondering what was up when he congratulated us for being good students. He said that we were getting an A in the class and that we didn't need to take the final exam. I'm very happy because that means I can focus on my other two classes and those finals.

My internship had a potluck for the participants and I helped out with set up and take down. It was fun to hang out with people and I got a good lunch out of it as well.

I'm really excited that I only have a week left until I'm totally done with school. I'll be home in a week and three days.

I sometimes feel like I'm riding the stormy waves in a little boat. I'm just glad that Jesus is in the boat with me.

Brandon and I had a good weekend together. We spent time with friends and went out looking at Christmas lights. We saw some spectacular displays. Then we spent Sunday at my grandparents. We went to church and finished our pre-marital counseling with my grandfather.

I'm always sad to see Brandon go but I know that I'll be home for good in less than two weeks. The thought of this puts a smile on my face and joy in my heart. We won't have to be apart for long.

Brandon is on his way to come visit me. He decided to come down on the spur of the moment. I'm so excited that he is coming!

Our rings came in today. Brandon is going to pick them up early next week.

I'm still sick...

I've finished another week of school. Only one week left and then finals. It really did go fast. I'm afraid that this weekend will seem really long. But I will get some needed rest and also finish my assignment that's due on Wednesday.

I feel good about this past week. I didn't deal with any depression but instead felt pretty good despite being sick. Tonight though I'm missing Brandon a lot. I know that the weekend will be tough without him but I'm tougher.

45 days left...

I have two weeks until I'm done with school. Two and half weeks until I'm home for Christmas. Three and half weeks until Christmas. Six and half weeks until I get married. It's amazing how fast time is going.
