Well, I'm an old married lady now. Me and Spencer got married on July 2, 2011! I'm so happy. We ended up having a small ceremony on the beach. His mom and grandma were able to fly out, so we had some family there. We're hoping to do a smallish ceremony in Ohio next summer since none of my family was able to come to Hawaii.
The only bad thing is that Spencer's been deployed for the past 2 weeks and won't be here for the first few months of our marriage. Which really sucks. I'm lonely and I miss him. I'm trying to keep busy, I'm working on clearing out our spare bedroom so we can put a desk and some bookshelves in it.
I miss Spencer so much though. We've spent the past year and a half together, more actually since we started hanging out a few months before we started dating, and we were in class together, so it's extremely weird to not have him around. And the fact that I have no way to contact him makes it worse. I hate this so much. He belongs here with me. I miss being held. I miss being silly. I miss him tickling me when I don't expect it. I miss falling asleep in his arms. The house is so empty and quiet without him. I want my Gaoshan back. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he'll be home early. I miss him so much.
I'm trying to exercise more and eat healthy so I lose weight and get in better shape. I've already lost 4 lbs, which makes me happy!
I've also got to get my driver's license. I got moved to a different base that's too far away for me to bike to, since they didn't want me and Spencer working in the same shop after we got married. So while I like my job better now, I'm stuck depending on people to give me rides, which I don't like. So I have to learn how to drive. And people are insane when they drive here. It's ridiculous, so I'm not really looking forward to it, but I don't have a choice in the matter. Oh well.
Me and Spencer have acquired 2 guinea pigs from someone who didn't want them. They are cute. We named them Edgar and Arthur. I keep telling my parents they should ship my guinea pig Einstein to me so he's not lonely.
Other than that though, there's not much going on. I've only got a few more weeks of training left, then I'll start my job...or I would, except that I have language class for 6 weeks. I might start my job before I leave Hawaii...maybe. ^^;; I have to walk or bike pretty much everywhere, which kind of sucks, but is also really good exercise.
I've got to get my name changed on everything now...I don't even know where to start. ^^;;But I want to have that all done by the time my hubby gets back, so I need to get started on it. I'm glad I have some projects to do, since they'll help me not focus on Spencer being gone. I've started walking to base on the weekends and working out at the gym there. I'm hoping I can keep myself motivated to go. I need to stop being so lazy. ^^;;
I guess that's all for now. Good night LiveJournal!
