back from break
So school is starting again and I need to leave on the shuttle in 15 minutes. Today is the first day I have any classes and, since I don't know where the room is and I can't remember what the shuttle schedule is, I need to take the 9:30 shuttle which means I get there an hour early for class. I'm hoping there is, in fact, a 10:00 shuttle but I don't want to risk it today.
I keep thinking that we're coming back from summer for a new year of school for some reason. It doesn't feel like we were just on winter break. I don't know if it's because the break seemed so long or if it's juse wishful thinking that I had a whole year before I had to get a job, but it's confusing.
Break wasn't too horrible though it was boring. I still don't have a car so I was basically confined to the house unless one of my friends wanted to drive 45 minutes to Cambridge and pick me up. We all did go out a few times and I actually saw Kelly R., Kelly H, Julia, Lisa, and Britni. I hadn't seen any of them since graduation for the most part. That was fun. And Ed came down alot more than expected so I wasn't about to kill myself. I'm glad to be back at school though.
Oh!!! And I got my wedding dress! Mother, Jessica, and I went to look for dresses one Saturday this winter, just looking. The first place we stopped didn't seem promising because I'd been there for prom dresses before and they had been rude to me. But the woman was exceptionally nice this time, more than likely because she knew I was looking for a wedding dress. Our budget was nill and we didn't plan on buying anything, but I tried on five dresses. The last one was freaking awesome and I had to have it. It was double the price of the other dresses, nearly $1400 but mother actually let me get it! That's like 1/3 of the budget for the whole wedding but we're cutting corners everywhere possible so at least I can have a nice dress.
It's so pretty. It's strapless and "candlelight" white. It's a corset top, which is awesome, and it's made of layers of lace, which sounds hideous but is great. It looks so pretty! I could go to the Renn Fest in it if I wanted. We got a great veil too...another $125 and it will be in around July. I'm so excited! I just need to get all my bridesmaids in for their measurements!!
