cake topper

Here it is!

Ryen

Ryen is back!! He recently returned from U.A.E. and I am sooooooooooooooo happy that he is home. It is so nice to come home to the one you love (and a kiss, a glass of wine, and dinner isn't so bad either). Okay enough of the cheeze.

Now that he is home we are really beginning to plan the wedding. Well Ryen might say that I am planning it. I am really trying to compromise. I swear! Here is an example: he is choosing the cake and I get to use my grandparents wedding cake topper. I am so excited! It was on top of their cake just about 60 years ago. Maybe I will post a picture on here of it, if I can figure out how to do that. Okay, well like I said earlier I am on my way to the post office...so here I go.

grad school

So becoming a speech pathologist takes forever! I'm beginning to think I should have become a doctor instead. I had to take all of the prereqs and now I am applying to be a classified grad. instead of a conditional grad. Confusing, eh? Anyway, I am applying to 3 schools. Sacramento, UOP, and Chico (keg stands here I come!). Totally kidding! I am hesitant to write this because I may not get into any of them and then I will feel like a total loser. Well, I am on my way to overnight a package to UOP. Wish me luck!
