Sometimes I'm surprised that my account is still active, since I neglect it so much. Anywho...looks like we're about to wrap up another quarter at Rose-Hulman. :-) This quarter may not be so hot grade wise, but I have had a good time, so if I pay for it with my grades a little bit, who cares?
Nat graduates in 4 days. I'm a little sad about that. :( On a happy note though, our parents finally get to meet. In all honesty that makes me a little nervous. My family, his family...I don't know...I just don't want things to be akward. How awful would it be if our families didn't get along? We're all going out to dinner that night. It should be interesting...
After dinner I think the plans are to pretty much ditch everyone and go out to celebrate. Graduation for the seniors, my 21st birthday for me! I'm prety excited. I have absolutely no plans to get trashed though. It just doesn't sound like fun for me. Plus it's not like I haven't been drinking since I was 18. Seriously, is it that big of a deal?
Things are progressing slowly with the wedding. We have moved it from Memphis to Lexington, which means that all of the planning that we had finished in Memphis is no longer done. My mom has been wonderful though...helping me with planning, and calling people, and everything else. Nat and I are going home in about 5 days and we're going to meet with some people then, and hopefully get some specifics nailed down. We did settle on a date. June 19, 2004. We're looking at having an 11am wedding followed by a brunch. It's different, but I thought it sounded like fun. Plus, brunch is my favorite meal of the day, so it was perfect!!! Other than that, the only thing that I can be certain about is that we're going to have a brass quintet play music for the ceremony. I talked to a friend from high school, David Salas, who was in band with me (unlike me, he kept playing after graduation) and asked him if he would be willing to get a quintet together for me. He said of course, so it looks like I'll have one for music. I'm so excited about that!!!
I start work on June 9, so I'll be moving to Peoria on the 8th. I'm looking forward to finally having some time off of school. While this quarter may have been fun, I have been so unbelievably busy. Between ChiO, SGA, school, MUN, and trying to spend time with Nat I have had no free time. Not to meniton I am stressing over getting in shape for the wedding. :-/ Hopefully, I'll be able to work on that this summer. The last four months have flown by, and if that is any indication of what is going to happen over the next 12 months, I'm in trouble. So this summer you will find Nichole at the gym working out lots. It's definitely time.
On that note, I should go. I need to finish getting ready for my 1pm final. As in, I need to study for my 1pm final. :-p Have a wonderful day!
