For the pasts 17 years of my life, I have been in and out of school. Working summers but I always knew that when august rolled around the job was ending and that school was back. I never had to keep a job for more the 3 months at a time, or I only had to tolerate it for 3-4 months. But now, I ahve to get licensed and go out into the R.W. [realworld :)] and get a job that I need to keep for a long time. Its crazy to think that I'm done. It hasnt completly sunk in yet, and I think it wont untill I am an L.M.T. looking for work.
It doesnt feel like about 4 years ago, I was shaking at home as I opened up my acceptance letter from U of O, and was positive that was where I was going to be forever. Its amazing where people end up from where they started.
As the week counts down to megs wedding, I started thinking about where we were all at a few years ago. Tara was positive she was going to marry damon, and now she has a adorable baby with Nik. Meghan and Brad were still doing the same thing they are now, yet meg has realized that babies are on her near horizon. Alexis was dating a douche bag, and was at U of O, and now is at SOU dating a very cute boy, and speding her summer in Alaska.And Victoria was at U of O and had her share of bad boyfriends and now is happily married to Matt living in NC but soon in Washington, chasing her dreams.
I have to say that where we are now is a lot better then where we thought we wanted to be 3/4 years ago. I would never think that I would be where I am right now, if you would have asked me that 3 years ago. But I couldnt imagine being anywhere else now.
With 13 months till we get married, I am trying to contain my excitement. I want to go out and plan everything right now! But we have some things already set in stone, we have the tables and chairs, enough for 300-350 I think. We have the DJ and the Dance floor. I found dresses I love, I just need to try them on. We have ideas for food and drinks. We know who are parties are and have a idea what we want them to wear. We have a location, and know what the flowers will be. We have a photographer, yet we need to figure out the invites. Lots planned but lots to go.

Early morning........
Sitting here finshing up my homework for the term, recovering from this last weekend, gives me time to think about whats next. As of tuesday I am officially done at RCC, ( well untill I need to do some CE) and then I am on my way to becoming a LMT. Scary almost. Although its something that I want to do, it seems like such a scary thing to become. I will be a professional. I will be done with school and actually in the real world. Sure I've worked and had jobs, but school was always just a few months away, but now what?

Wow. Its been a few days since I've posted.
Lots of things going on right now, trying to finish up school, and get all my hours correct, and make sure I have the right credits and paperwork. Then I need to find a part-timer so I can make a few bucks untill I get licensed so then I can charge for massages. :) Woohoo! I cannot believe that in 21 days I take my written test, and then onJuly 6th I can pick up and mail my paperwork so I can go get registered for the practical exam. AH! scary scary thoughts. I am almost terrified about taking these tests..I dont feel prepared at all.
And I need to get certified in first aid and cpr before all this happens. Geeze. So much going on.
We had a great weekend, lots of time spent with friends and with beer. Haha. Spent Monday on the river, crashed a few parties, and had a great time with Jerrod and some of our friends. :)
This weekend will be a great one as well. Jerrod leaves for halibut fishing on Friday morning, and then that night me and ashley G are going to go take some pictures up in the rich area of town. :) Havent drug my camera out in a while, and it feels good to hold it again. :) Then on Saturday is Meghans Bachelorette party, and still not sure on whats my plans with that. I am pretty broke, so I am not sure if I'm going to be able to drink, but I will go to dinner and then see how the night fares :)
Life has been good lately. I love waking up and knowing that life is on a slow incline up. I still can't believe that meg is getting married, I know that its meant to be. It just amazes me still that we are at this point in our lives. Tara is married and has the most adorable baby boy, Meg is geting married in about 3 weeks, and then will be starting her family soon after. And then there is me, getting married in a little over a year, still mind blowing. :) But I couldnt imagine it any other way. :)
Stay tuned.. ♥
