Your touch is so magic to me...the strangest things can happen

Man I really need to update this journal a lot more. Sorry guys.
So I had finished my winter quarter but still worried how my grades were going to be..I usually become paranoid that I failed all my tests or did badly on my papers. I learned to never count my chickens before they hatched but luckily I did well..straight A’s! It’s been a while since I got that result and I’m glad I finally got it again.
Sadly the week that I ended my winter quarter finals I received the news that my boss got laid off. Mind you I take off the whole finals week so I could just concentrate on school so I didn’t see her that week and unfortunately wasn’t able to say goodbye. Going back the following week was extremely hard as I had to watch them cleaning up her office, an office that I happily kept in order and organized simply because it was my boss and she was like a second mom to me. I remember that she was actually the one to interview me before I got the job and rescued me from the hell that I was subjected to. She was the reason why I stayed for so long. The things I have learned, I had learned from her and for that I am grateful to know such a brilliant and successful woman. On a good note I had gotten in contact with her to tell her my grades..she was proud of me like always and I just felt a sense of ease.
So this past April 10 was our 8 month anniversary....I actually thought we wouldn't be doing anything but lo and behold he had picked me up. We didn't have any plans to go to a particular place..just drove and drove, playing around with the GPS. As if by chance we exited and found Westlake Village. We didn't know what to expect and we wonderfully surprised to see the most beautiful houses around a lake. We parked near the lake and started walking around the neighborhood admiring the gorgeous scenery. Truthfully I think I found my dream home here..the neighborhood is peaceful, clean, and a place I could picture raising my future children in.
After our little sight seeing, we decided to get some dinner. We came across a restaurant called Mediterraneo and decided to eat there. We were not disappointed at the meal we had there...for my salad they had added large shrimp which was absolutely delicious..I savored each and every bite (with my love watching me in amusement).The restaurant was next to a hotel and a mini lake..I was in love with everything (especially the person that I was sharing those moments with). Hopefully we'll make time later to go again. It really is a beautiful place =)
I was able to buy my cap and gown at the GradFair this past week. It was really exciting to just go and pick up my commencement tickets! When I came home and triedthe gown on, I felt a sense of accomplishment just being able to finally wear it. Can't wait!
These next few months are going to be hectic but in a good way. I'm turning 23 this coming May 6..my brother is graduating from Don Bosco on May 30..I'm graduating on June 12...going to finish up the few subjects I still need to take in the summer.
As for after that? I have a new goal in place...this idea has been a possibility for a while now but I have come to a decision that it is the best option for me at this point of my life. It's a big step but I think it's what I need. We'll see what happens.
