teef.

I forgot to say that I was going in for a consult to get my teeth fixed on Wednesday! SO EXCITED!

It's been a "thing"of mine for a long time. My gap. We are not friends and never will be. It hogs all of my photos and forces me to keep my mouth shut. Every time I look at a picture of myself, it's all that I can see! Everyone says it's "no big deal" and "you can't even see it!" but it's like when you have a big giant zit on your face and it's all you can focus on. I can't stand it! Partially I feel like I will look unlike myself without it since it's been a part of my smile for 25 years, but the other part of me can't wait to beam a smile and not have to worry about that big giant crack in the middle of my mouth! Anyway, I am going to go see how much it will cost. Let's pray it's not too much!

*not my mouth, but it's an idea.

weekends are bliss

This weekend was much needed!

Friday Nate and I went to go out to dinner and spend time with his grandparents, which was fun. I got to hear Nathan play piano and it always (almost) makes me cry. IT'S JUST SO GOOD UGH. Oh, and cute pictures of when he was a little babe, which was adorbs. Then I drove an hour and a half at around midnight to get home to see my mom and brother.

I don't know what it is, but whenever I come home, I can sleep forever and the best. Saturday Nathan came down to see me and we went and started shopping for our Halloween costumes... at Goodwill. (and I ran into Diz, what the heck!) We came away with some good stuff. I'm practically done, but I just need some little things to finish it. Then we went to Taco Mac and had a beer and some wings with some old friends of mine and then I had to drive Nathan home so he could leave for his business trip in the morning ;(

I hate having to let him go.

Sunday I went shopping with my meemaw (mom) and that is always fun! I found some more costume stuff for cheap, and I tried my hand at dyeing a shirt! It came out really good I think!

Nate's shirt cooking!

 
Also, I watched Revolver with my brother, and I just... nevermind.

ALSO, Sunday was our 8 month anniversary! 8 months has super flown by. I'm the happiest I've ever been with anyone and I'm so blessed to have him! I know it sounds kind of lame counting every month, but... I just love him and that's how it's going to be. I get on flipping Pinterest and see the shinies and the weddings and the houses and I used to think "man, I just want to get married", in general, but now it's "man, I just want to get married to Nate" and I sigh and daydream some more. I'm ridiculous.

I have to start thinking of Christmas presents. Dang.

It's starting to turn into the best season ever (Fall, duh). I swear, something happens in my brain that just makes me the happiest person in the entire world during Autumn. When Nathan gets back I want to carve pumpkins, go into the mountains and see the colors change, wear sweaters, take pictures, play outside, get lost in a corn maze, and all kinds of Fall-ish things. I just wish I wasn't in school... guh. Speaking of which, I really need to start studying Pharmacology!

Time to text my boyfriend and snuggle with my kittens and maybe kind of study.

No studying will get done with the cute cats around.

another "i should be studying but" post

I should be studying, but...

I don't feel like it. I am getting distracted with texts from Nathan, Pinterest (my poison), news about Steve Jobs' death (sad day), and looking at hair because it's been like 2 weeks since I've dyed it and that means that I need to dye it again because I'm weird. I made stuffed peppers the other night and they have been supplying me with lunch and dinner the past couple of days. I think it's time to make something new.

Also, I need to figure out what I'm going to be for halloween!
Also, I need to pass a test I have tomorrow that I should be studying for.
Also, my new job is good.
Also, sleep.

Praise God!

So I have been really antsy about a certain med math exam that I may or may not have failed 2 times and was waiting on my third to be graded... It was a big deal. I had to make 100 on a MATH (wut) test. The first time, I got all of the math right, but I wrote mg instead of ml on one question and failed. The second time, I got all of the math right except for the fact that I rounded to the tenths instead of the hundreths on one question. The third time (which was my last straw, mind you...) I PASSED! I have prayed countless hours and asked an infinite amount of people to pray and think of me for this test. I firmly believe in the power of prayer after this one. I am lucky enough to be able to continue at Piedmont for the Nursing program... that continues to stress me out minute by minute. Wait, why am I excited for this again?

I miss my Nathan. (There is a whole world of miss in that little sentence, but I think short and sweet will do.)
