Had my senior evaluation today. I am officially on the lists to graduate in the Spring =).

I only need 7 hours... With my remaining requirements (another poetry class, the second latin course and one more support course (currently undecided) I will be all done... but to remain full time I will need an additional class to take just for the full time status that financial aid requires of me... so I get to pick something else retarded to take.

I was smiling from ear to ear today. I know it's been 6 years and I shouldn't be all that proud of myself for taking so long, or surprised that it's finally happening.... but I feel so good about the fact that I'm finally going to wrap it up and move on.

I've experienced so many lessons in life in the past six years. It's amazing to look at the full course of things from this "on the other end" perspective. I was almost an entirely different person when I started college my freshman year.

I picture that girl in my head and she's almost a stranger to me. I knew so little then, was so naive about life and love and everything really. I'm still naive and I still know little in the great broad spectrum of things, but I can say I have come quite a long way.

This December, after the fall semester ends, I will spend the time off putting together my portfolio and making my resume. In the spring I will send it out and cross my fingers.

Soon, Bobby and I are going to visit the apartment complex we chose and view a room and tour the grounds. I figure doing this now would be a good idea, because as soon as the Spring semester starts, life will be passing more quickly than ever. I'll get this part out of the way at least, to see if we actually like it. Hopefully there will be an opening when I'm ready to take the leap.

Having to repeat myself over and over again. If you didn't hear me the third time, just smile and nod.

normally bobby calls me on his way over or at least lets me know he is on his way. yesterday i was laying in bed in sweatpants reading cosmo when i heard a knock on the door.

i ran downstairs to answer it and who is it none other than my delicious boyfriend, standing rather suspiciously with his hands behind his back.

he got me the prettiest bouquet yet! here it is in the vase i usually just keep some decorative stuff in:

I believe they are 12 big roses and .. more than 12 mini ones . Not the best angle to see them all, but something is seriously screwed in microsoft photo gallery because it freezes every time i try to open the big one. Honestly... i hate vista and DELL with a passion. I will NEVER purchase another computer from Dell. ANYHOW the flowers:

So that's that.  We ordered chinese and watched Ice Age.

I will catch up with you guys this weekend hopefully.. I have to hurry and get ready for work now since my computer is such a slow piece of crap thanks to microsoft.

PS I bought the complete idiots guide to latin today. i'm already on pg 30 and it has cleared up SO MUCH already. i really think my professor would benefit just teaching from THIS book. i think i'll suggest that when evaluations come around.

i still occasionally get upset and annoyed over stupid things.

but when i see his face and his concern or if i see him rushing toward me looking upset that i may be upset because i've been waiting for an hour and a half... whatever frustration or anger i may be feeling just melts away... it fizzes out and all i want to do is embrace him and make sure he knows it's okay.

he always cares.
and i can't be angry when i see that in his eyes.

he comes before whatever bad feelings i may be having and just wipes them all out.

no one has ever been able to do that. perhaps it is me who has never cared so much before now?

to love and be loved... that is something i'd only ever THOUGHT I knew... before him.

pictures of bobby taking pictures ;)

look at that face when he realized what I was doing! hahaha...

some pictures I snapped:

We went to this wetland observation trail that's in the park and this is where he took some pictures for class. And here are a couple of us:

Bleh, haha.

I went shopping today and accidentally spent $50 on some scrapbook supplies.

"vacation" is only... 45 days away!  Yay! a long weekend with my boyfriend and six entire days away from walgreens. how perfect.
