I suck at titles

I have been doing a horrible job updating this blog, and I have no idea what I covered in the last update, so I apologize for any repeated information!


-I started my summer class!  It isn't the most thrilling information, but it is nice getting back in the swing of things.  I officially start grad school in about 10ish weeks (?), so I am happy to be getting some practice with doing homework and studying again!  Plus, I got an A on my first test!  Good start, I'd say!


-Building off of that, I have 8 weeks left at CHS as a full-time clinician!  Lots of stuff is in the works at CHS, so I have no idea how things will be/what I will be doing when I am back to part-time, but I am ready for the transition.


-Dan and I have chosen a photographer, and we are getting our engagement pictures taken in September!  I am really REALLY excited about this because I love engagement pictures!  They are just so adorable and really show the love between the couple.  Plus, I am pretty excited about getting some new pictures of us to hang on the walls!  What is even better is that Dani and Luke have the same photographer (it's someone they work with), so they are getting their pictures done the same day and we will be able to get some all together.  I am so lucky that I get to experience all of this with my best friend!  I am even more lucky that we are the type to want to share all the fun and not fight over who should be getting the attention!  (For example -- we are sharing a veil and headpiece, our dresses are very similar, and there is a good chance our bridesmaids will be wearing the same dresses!  just different color).


-Like most girls, I have this constant struggle with my body / weight.  Since I started college, I gained 10 lbs, which I know isn't a ton, but when you're 4'10, it's obvious.  At least, I know the difference.  I have been trying to lose this weight on and off for a few years, now, and it has been a struggle.  I give up continuously.  For example, I got pretty serious at the beginning of the year, especially after I found out I would be in a wedding this summer (then I got engaged!).  I had lost 4 lbs, which for me, was a huge accomplishment!  I don't remember ever actually  noticing the scale going down.  Then I went on vacation and got lazy all of May and ALL of the weight came back.  Plus a pound.  I am pretty disappointed with myself.  I need to continue to hold myself accountable.  I am not a girl that can "diet."  I like sweets and fried food and anything else that is bad for me, and I refuse to completely give all of that up.  (There is no use in being skinny and miserable).  But!  I am willing to try and limit some of that, and I am willing to work out, so I need to stay on top of that.  No more giving up because I don't want to keep restarting this process!  Justin's wedding is in less than 3 months, and my engagement pictures are shortly after -- NO MORE EXCUSES!
