3. planning my wedding
4. going to other peoples' weddings, including my cousin's and Robbie's aunt's
5. swimming in my pool/attempting to get tan
6. working out (I'll finally have time)
7. figuring out my life

she loves you

Damn you, OC, for making an awesome 4th season, having me buy it on DVD & watch it, fall back in love with you, and then be cancelled.

where do we go from here

So I had a really bad week. This past weekend helped me a lot (nothing like friends & family to make you happy), but last week really beat me down, and made me question so many things about the rest of my life - specifically, my career.

I won't go into specifics (mostly because I don't really want to think about it & depress myself again), but I just find myself at the end of this hellaciously busy & exhausting year unsure of myself and my future. And I hate that I allowed someone to do this to me, but there it is.

Do I want to be a teacher? Should I be a teacher? Am I a good teacher? What the hell else would I do?

I really wish someone could just give me the answers to these hard questions.

here comes the sun

What a difference a year makes.

One year ago today, my grandmother passed away. It's hard for me to believe that it has been a year - sometimes it feels like it was just yesterday, and sometimes it feels like it was such a long time ago. I really missed her on my birthday - my first birthday without her - and think of her often. I have especially been thinking of her in the last week or so, because Robbie and I got engaged last week, and I wish that she could have been here to know about it. She loved Robbie, so I know it would have made her very happy. I'm not a particularly religious person, but it gives me comfort to think that she watches over me from time to time - especially in times like this.

I miss you, Grandma.

something

My secret shame = an obsession with "Dancing with the Stars". But I challenge you to watch these clips and not enjoy them...

APOLO OHNO
