must be productive...

*so i told drew that saturday would be reserved for recovery time from formal...and boy was i right. it was one of the most entertaining formals in a while, granted there have been formals where my lovely sisters and their dates have provided much entertainment...anyways, it was fun, i had a great birthday, and this semester is soooo close to being over with-thank GOD!!
*i am sitting on my bed watching Independence Day and cleaning out my notebook and organizing my education notes...and it's bittersweet, i have 2 file boxes full of class notes, handouts, and articles that i really need to go through and get rid of some of the old stuff and repeated stuff...but i think right now i am just going to leave all of the papers in there...
*i think i am getting pretty close to officially picking my MOH and bridesmaids for the wedding, clearly i am not going to post on here who i have chosen until i actually get to ask each of them, but when i do, i will post it-promise.
*i really can't wait for this time next year, i will be married...married, i still can't believe it, and i am soo excited! decorating for Christmas and celebrating the holidays in our own ways, it will be fabulous. i just hope and pray that drew and i both can find, good, stable jobs.
*i really really need to start and finish the study guide for my elementary methods final that i have on monday...we will see how that goes

i will, eventually, post some pictures from formal last night...and then from my birthday dinner at melting pot this coming saturday night!

love you all.

p.s. getting ready to re-read Steve Harper's Talking in the Dark and this is a quote from the introduction.
"Life doesn't make sense. No matter how hard we try to make it so, it doesn't. No matter how much we want everything to turn out okay, it doesn't always. Bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people. That's the way it is. If we are religious, prayer gets mixed into the mystery and the frustration of that reality. Sometimes we can't tell what difference prayer is making. Even though we pray, life falls short of our sense of justice and cry for mercy."
This quote describes how i fell a good part of the time...but throughout his book he responds and creates a thought that i only wish i could follow 100% of the time...
