Wedding Season

Well. I just attended my first wedding reception of " The Season" that I know of , I have 2 more coming. I mean they'll be at the end of July , but that counts. Then i'll have 2 of my own.

Besides the point. Going to the reception tonight made me miss Gregg. I can't wait till it's OUR reception i'm attending. I miss my boy and can't wait to spend Eternity with him. It will be amazing. For now I will just be content with making this the best summer ever. Hitting up the pool every day. Since Gregg doesn't like pools , this will be my last pool year. Unless I decide to go by myself. Which is lame. C'mon. I need to talk to someone while I swim. Or float rather.

hahaha...ha

So. I'm totally not looking forward to the Tuesday Dr. Appt I have. That's A WHOLE other story though.

On the plus side I slept pretty much all day? I have my makeup trial run in the morning. Applying for jobs then lunch with the bestie. Speaking of Makeup , I need new stuff. I had totally forgotten why I got so lazy with doing my hair and makeup. Then on Sunday I realized it. I'm out of foundation. I can't borrow my sisters either. Mostly because i'm PALE white and they're , well, not.

I promise on ... Saturday i'll get back on the diet. I can't help that people keep feeding me crap. Okay I guess I could make my own food. I'll do better though , I promise. I've never really had problems losing weight. When I'm trying. Guess i'm just really awesome like that.

I will probably try my dress on again sometime when the Grandma(s) are here. If it doesn't fit then , after me losing weight , I will feel like the most obese kid ever. I'm pretty sure it won't be a problem though. Anyways. I need to be up early. So i'm gonna you know... vaminos.LOVE YOUUUU

148

148 : How much I weigh after losing 2 pounds (eek)
79 : The number of days until Gregg and I get married ( again eek)
18: The date that I found out my blogger friend Sydney is preggo.

She announced it in the cutest way possible. I shall steal it one day when i'm preggo , so be on the lookout kay ? kay.

Ahhh what a great day today is ! I'm feeling great , because I can fit into my wedding dress again. I bet.I haven't tried it on okay ? Now if only I could find out whether my blogger friend at dear baby has had her little Arlo yet . That would make my week fantastic!!

Sometimes

Sometimes I feel way younger than I am. I still feel 17 most days. I still look 17. Most days. Sometimes I feel older than I am though. Like today. When I feel 25. Not that I even know what 25 feels like , but I feel that how I feel would be the way a 25 year old Afton would feel. If you were able to make any sense out of that I would like to say congrats.

Gregg has a job interview today. I'm getting married in 80 days. I feel like I should be older. Someone older than me would have more of an idea of what life is all about. Someone with more experience would know how to be a good wifey. Someone who's actually lived life. Then again , I guess nobody is ever truely prepared for marriage. Or life in general.

Some people walk in the light. I've been applying for jobs and after applying basically EVERYWHERE , I can't even get an interview , Brett has a job though, Gregg will probably get this job that he has the interview for , putting him up to 2 jobs. I however can't get anything. LAME SAUCE. Gregg said that chrysallis ( his first job) would have a job for me though in August , when I move back out. Well that doesn't help me now.

I have a wedding band that I need to buy , but can't. I can't afford it. Branbury sucks , so i'm probably going to end up having to pay them for every month that i'm not there. I guess we'll find out about that in August. Depends on if they can sell my contract or not. I'm gonna go now. I think i'll go read a book

May 16 , 2011

TODAY has been a great day. First off I woke up and weighed myself. I did this so I could compare my weight at the end of each week and see how i'm progressing in my weight loss goals. I thought I was at like 165 or 170. I left Utah weighing 155 and I was just absolutely positive I had gained 10-15 pounds since being home. FALSE. I now weigh 150. I'm the proud loser of 5 WHOLE POUNDS!!! So we'll see if I can lose anymore. At this rate I only need to lose 28 pounds to get to my goal weight. I don't necessarly have to weigh 122 by my wedding , but it would be nice to be down to at least 135 by then.

Then I opened my listening ears and guess what ?! IT WAS RAINING. Now to those of you who have never experienced a Georgia rainstorm , I promise you they are the BEST! No thunder , no lightning , just pouring rain. It's beautiful and it is always a nice break from the Georgia summers. Which are hot and sticky. I'm now sitting in bed in a hoodie , and considering putting on socks. I'm freezing. I'm not going to shut my window though , because I just get so hot. It's been worse ( my being hot all the time) since moving from Utah. I guess my body likes cold(ish) weather now.

and finally. I got the mail from the Manti Temple today. Something i've been waiting for for a month now. OH MAN ALIVE i'm stoked. I'm getting married to my best friend in 2.5 months. I'm so excited and I can't wait to be able to spend the rest of eternity with him. 81 days Gregg. 81 days. This hasn't really seemed real to me yet. Until today that is. Today I just woke up SO EXCITED. Each day closer I get more and more excited. I'm not nervous at all. Is that bad ? Mostly i'm excited.I'm not hating being engaged either anymore. Maybe it's because i've gotten past all the hard stuff and just get to do the fun stuff now. I love it though. I'm gonna go now. Peace and Love my friends!

Who Says?

I am by no means "skinny" , but I know for a fact i'm not obese. I am a little overweight. ( I've checked it out and what not) Still , for the last month an individual very close to me has been saying things that make me feel hideous. I know I'm not , but it hurts just the same. I feel bad because I feel like I should just take this as a grain of salt and not let it bother me ,and if it had only been once , or even said jokingly once I could handle it. This individual says it pretty much every day in a very serious tone. I can't take it anymore it's eating away at me. However I don't want to be upset. So I was searching for quotes on beauty on lds.org , and for inspirational videos and what not. Which leads me to this post. Selena Gomez's Who Says. SO PERFECT for me and for every girl on the planet. Take a watch. If you can think of any inspirational quotes about beauty or just uplifting , send them my way. please and thank you :)
