Ok, so I know everyone says that planning a wedding is stressful but I guess I figured that since we have over a year we could take our time and do things gradually. Boy was I wrong. At this point I wanna elope. It's amazing how quickly you get swept up into wedding plans. It's sad to say but I'm getting tired of it already simply because I'm still trying to get through this semester. Things started out fine...We picked a date and a church (mine) and a reception hall. Then we find out that the reception hall doesn't do night weddings (which ours will be). Ok, so we look and look and I finally find one that looks good and has night receptions. However, It's booked for the date we picked. So we asked What other dates in December were available and they tell us the 30th. We ask my church if it is available for the 30th and they say yes. No problem right? Well when we call the church back to set up an appointment to come in they tel us it is booked. AHHHH! Ok So now we are on the hunt for another church. Brett and I looked into one that we both really like except it will cost $400 extra dollars. But it is available...or so I am told. I think we are both pretty set on that. When my mom and I go to look at the reception hall it is great and is available. Everything is going fine until all of a sudden alarms go off an people start running out of the building. Come to find out the place was on FIRE!!! I'm telling you, this has been like one of those candid camera type situations since we started planning. I'm definitely in favor of eloping right now. My nerves are stretched to their max. But, the weekend is almost here and I have already told my family that their will be not wedding planning of any kind until fall break. Other than that school is going ok. I think I may have taken on a little too much this semester...or maybe it just feels that way with everything else I have to do. But I'm managing to get everything done so that's all that counts. I like pretty much all my classes. Especially my aging memoir class. I will have to write about that one but not now...this is long enough.
