Ha. So I guess I sort of forgot about this thing, eh? Boy how life has changed since March! So her's the run-down on the last several months...
I finished school in April...and then got engaged in May. hehe So I'm sure most of you already know that...but just in case you didn't I thought you should know. It was something he had joked about many times while I was school and he would act as if he were going to ask me over the phone or whatever. It started to get a little old and I began getting upset with him about it. So when he ACTUALLY asked me...I sort of didn't take him seriously. I kept telling him to shut-up and that it wasn't very funny. The only way he could get me to believe him was to get mad. haha That's right. We fought over getting engaged. lol Then I realized he was serious and of course cried like a baby. hehe The wedding is May 24, 2008. It will be two years and one day since I came home from Romania. aka two years from the first time we hung out outside of work. I still have a lot of planning to do. But we have the places booked (ceremony at St. Matthew in Milan, my church. And reception at the Rock in Coal Valley. Photog is booked..the studio I work(ed?) for of course. Ms. Catherine Woodard -- Mrs. Ryan Mandle by then is my lovely maid of honor. She will be followed by my two sisters, Scott's sister, and OF COURSE Katie.)
At the end of August I went ahead and moved out to Iowa City (where Scott is going to school) and got a job at Geico. I know it sounds really random, but it pays well and I honestly enjoy it. There is so much to learn. I started on my bday (Aug 29) and I'll finish my training next week. Yeah, theres that much to learn.
So that's my life as of right now. FYI, full time jobs are A-Mazing. I don't work on Thanksgiving OR the day after, but I get paid for both of them. I'll also be getting paid to go on my honeymoon. You can't really beat that.

No more stress!

I can't say my life is too exciting at the moment, but sometimes that's good. Spring break was this past week, and thankfully I didn't do much of anything. I spent some time out in Iowa City (of course) and spent a day wedding dress shopping with Cat. After which I think we ate Ryan's entire house. But my break was restful without much stress, that's what I needed. My senior show had been the week before (yes, the same week as midterms). That was basically a nightmare, but I survived. Our show comes down this Friday. I'll be a little sad about it being over, but mostly just grateful! I ws informed today that there are only 5 more Monday's until finals. I was also informed that we only have 29 days of class left. I don't know if those 29 included today or finals, but I really don't care. I'm almost done with college! I guess basically life is really pretty good right now. That's just the way I like it.

'06 is finally over

Well, here's another year. I just got done spending the day with my two favorite boys (Scott and Max). I'm really going to miss them come Sunday when I have to go back to Indiana for five months. But the upside to that is once May is over, I'll be done in Indiana!! It's funny...ever other break I've had from school I was itching to get back as soon as I could, but now it's the last thing I want to do. I love my school and my major and all, but dang, I'm so ready to be done.

I look back at this past year, and I can't believe how much things have changed. If someone had told me a year ago where I'd be now, I'd laugh in their face. But I'm glad I'm here. If '07 goes as well as the second half of '06 did, I'll be more than pleased.
