Empty breakfast room woes

You know you are up too early when the breakfast room in your hotel is empty and lacking breakfast. Dear holiday inn express davenport- feed me?

falling behind

I feel like I owe an apology to my blog. I've been M.I.A- blame school and 2 jobs. I gotta sleep sometimes, right??
Oh, and my trusty laptop died. RIP. you were good to me- guess he's going to join Alfred in computer heaven.
Iwill post more here in the near future, got some fun stuff coming up:

Saturday: S.P.A.C.E TOUR IN CHARLOTTE!!!! GRANGER DANGER!

Thursday: TURKEY DAY

Friday: 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH MY MAIN SQUEEZE!!!!!!!!!

Saturday: B and I are going to the UNC- DUKE football game. Cuz I'ma good girlfriend.

Until then....

Peace love and get me outta here

This is me and chanel in class. Boo. Its halloween and we are trapped until 9:45. Why, why, whyyyy??!!

living and loving

Update time:

1. went to the fair last week with B, so fun. We ate, we rode a ride, we ran into some of my peoples, we looked at cool things that people with lots of talent made, and we watched people. The state fair is an amazing place to people watch. Worth the 8 dollars. Totally.

2. Halfway through the school semester. Ugh. It's been a tough one. It's worth pushing myself though, because everyday I get done puts me closer to starting the future that I look forward to everyday

3. work. I no longer work at the preschool anymore. I miss my babies everyday. It was too much with my dance and school schedule though. So for now I'm back to Captain Stanley's, doing the hostessing thing. Can't say it inspires me, but it's money.

4. Yesterday. I loved yesterday. Because it was one of those days that I fell more in love with Bradley every time I looked at him. I always think to myself, "Self, how can you possibly love this man anymore than you already do?" but then I find myself loving him even deeper. Not complaining. I am the luckiest woman alive.

SO, that's purty much it. Life is crazy, not always fantastic. But I really am enjoying the ride.

ta-ta for now :)

Dear monday night class...

I hate you. Loathe you.

Wish you did not exist.

So bored.

Not learning.

And I have to sit here til 9:45...

WHY WHY WHY?

This is my crazzzy face

This is how school is making me feel. So much work. It's fall break right now, but there has been no break in my life. papers, projects, and powerpoints. That is all I do.

Halfway done with the semester. And registration for next semester starts in 2 weeks.

It. Never. Ends.

Going to go write some more papers and research some more stuff for psych I do not understand nor care about.

UGH

conference

This weekend was fantastic- getting to spend Sunday sitting on the couch, snuggled up with some yummy chili and my handsome boyfriend ,listening to the words of the prophets.. couldn't ask for more.

life's a beach.

So, B and I went to Wilmington on Thursday. Despite the fact that it was supposed to rain and storm all day. We braved the storm. Literally. Actually the cloud of doom and darkness followed us to the beach, and gave us about 10 minutes on the beach when we first got there. So we played on the beach for a bit. Got some lunch, it was pouring at this point. I almost lost my rainbow cuz it was so wet. I was slipping everywhere. haha. So we ate our lunch. Drove through downtown, went to the cotton exchange, saw a movie getting filmed on the streets, and it stopped raining so we went back to the beach for a bit. Walking around on the beach with B was wonderful, we picked up seashells, stuck our feet in the ocean, chased birds( well that was just me, but he laughed at me while I did it), I tried to push him in the ocean, took pics on the beach.. it was a good time. Then we drove back to his house and chilled there and the plan was for me to get up early and go to class but I woke up really sick so the plan changed and my incredible boyfriend got up with me at 6:45 and rubbed my back and took care of me all day. He's a keeper.

Check out the pics from the beach. Loves.

B really likes this one- so do I.

This was at the Cotton Exchange- I really love this one.

Haha, this sign made B so happy. It made me happy too. Run dude.

Ocean. Gorgeous

Life as according to picnik

First things first- Lion King 3D was amazing. I cried. A whole lot. Especially when Mufasa died. But it is such a wonderful story. Favorite Disney movie. Hands down.

So my significant other is not big on taking pics, I on the the other hand LOVE to take pictures. Pictures freeze memories. On occasion B will satisfy my need for pictorial proof of our relationship and let me snap a few shots. Yesterday and his birthday were those occasional moments- so here are my 3 favorites- picniked to perfection. More pics will be here, cu we are going to the beach on thursday and well- I will be taking pics. Until then, here are the faves..

Ok, so I look asian in this one- but that is my "I'm so happpppy squint"

Hakuna Matata

I. AM. SO. EXCITED.
Lion king in 3D ..tonight!

out and about

Today was spend the day with boyfriend thursday- love those days :)

We decided to go on a sushi date at Kanki, deliciousness.

We just got some different stuff and shared- that's another thing that I love about B, he is really bringing out the adventurous side of me.

I am so excited for saturdays date though... he is taking me to see the lion king in 3D, I am going to be the happiest kid (adult) in that theater. I warned him I might sing, and I will cry when Mufasa dies. End of story.

Oh and he said we are going to take a day trip to the beach next thursday.

SCORE!

tomorrow is a special day..

IT'S BRADLEYS 22nd BIRTHDAY!!!!!

annnnnnnd I have the WHOLE. DAY. OFF.. ( well except for my 8/9 am classes, but they are early in the am, sooo they do not count)

As I was saying... I have the wholllllle day off to spend with the birthday boy.

So excited.

Love him so much.

I'm glad there is a day all about him :)

I am the blessed- you are the blessing.

Sometimes I waver. My strength starts to falter.

I cry until I can't possibly cry anymore.

Sometimes my world seems to be spiraling out of control. I feel left behind.

I feel lost. I feel confused. I feel hurt. I feel anger.

I make mistakes. I get mad at myself.

You pick me up. You remind me of my strengths.

You let me cry on your shoulder. You wipe my tears.

You stabilize my world. You bring me back to where I am supposed to be.

You help me find myself. You console me. You comfort me.

You remind me I'm not perfect. I don't have to be.

You tell me nothing will change how much you love me.

I am the blessed.

You are the blessing.

I love you.

Thank you.

<3

Date Night

Ugh. I've been bad at blogging.

I am so busy. 5 classes and 2 jobs is running me ragged.

But tonight will be a stress free- school/work free night.

its....DATE NIGHT.

I love date night. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

I love the opportunity to get all cute for Bradley and I love getting to go out together.

Tonight we are going to the local drive in movie theater. YAY for old school romantic dates!

I'm thinking black shirt dress and cute flats.

XOXO

21 months of memories

Today is mine and B's 21 month anniversary. Wow. 21 months. November will be 2 years. The best 2 years of my life. Honestly- I adore this man. I can't imagine my life without him, and when I tell him that he normally replies with "then it's a good thing you never will have too."

There is so much I am looking forward to sharing with him- so many adventures left for us to go on. For right now though, I am loving every minute of the one we are on. Dating him is a joy. He makes me feel so special, and not just on special occasions- but every. single. day.

I love our little routines- I look forward to them everyday- the good morning texts- where normally at least one of us is a little grumpy about facing the busy day ahead. I look forward to getting his texts sporadically through out the day when he gets a break at work, and then we have our nightly phone convo, where we discuss the happenings of the day, vent about bosses, people, children in my case, life, school- Ok, well maybe I do most of the venting, but he does a real good job listening :)- then we have our saying goodnight routine, which I never thought would mean as much as it does to me, but I find myself looking forward to it during the day.

Bradley is my rock. He keeps me sane, and focused on the long term.

I love him. and he loves me.

Life is good. better than good.

just an update.

nothing to exciting is going on- but I figured I would post a quick blurb anyway.

Dance went back last week, I am looking forward to getting to know all the new students and working on preparing the returning ones for the feis in september and then for Oireachtas in December.

I'm still teaching preschool- which is good stuff, except that I get sick all the time. Not fun. I figure eventually I will be immune to all sorts of fun diseases, right now Hand, foot, and mouth is going around. I got some form of it, I feel rotten but it is what it is.

School goes back on Wednesday, I think I am excited. I have a full load, 15 credit hours. We will see how that goes. I am looking forward to seeing all my friends from last semester though.

That's all for now- if anything fun happens, I'll post it here.

happy sunday :)
