Finally, it's break time! I have been patiently waiting for this since about the end of Christmas break :)
Apart from me now having less than 100 days and (very slightly) less than 3 months until the wedding, my life is pretty great right now! I am still on the hunt for a job, but I really want to know where Kam will be going to grad school before I get too excited about anything. Hopefully we will know soon.
As for break, I will be spending part of next week in New Orleans with Kam and his parents. I've never been there before, so I'm excited! I am also excited because this is the first (and last) time I will be doing anything for spring break. Kam was very sweet and said he wanted to take me somewhere since I'd never gone anywhere for spring break before, and this is our last one. His parents decided randomly that they wanted to go somewhere too, so we are combining and all going together. I think it will be fun!
This weekend I got so much done. I am really relieved by that, because I was starting to get really stressed out by all the wedding stuff. It's hard to plan a wedding that is taking place 2 hours from where I live most of the time. Anyways, we met with the reception venue and decided on food! Huge weight off my shoulders. It turned out so wonderfully too, because we hadn't found an exact option from the menu that they gave us that we were in love with. Our coordinator said it was no problem, and literally let me pick exactly what we wanted. Also, we will have a lemonade fountain. That's probably the part I am most excited about :) We also met with the company that is decorating the reception. It's going to be sparkly and amazing. I seriously cannot wait to see everything!
Today we went shopping with my aunt and 2 cousins. I was banking on finding a dress for my bachelorette party, but I didn't. It's getting really frustrating, but I am just hoping that the perfect one is waiting for me somewhere! On the bright side, I did find the perfect shoes to wear with my rehearsal dinner dress. (Sorry to go in to detail on all the clothing...I am a fashion major after all) Let me re-phrase that. I could not find the perfect shoes anywhere. Given the fact that Kam is about a fourth of an inch taller than I am, I really hate wearing heels around him. I wanted silver glittery shoes, but all I could find were some seriously tall heels. Apparently no one makes silver flats with glitter. So, in true Emily nature, I made my own. And they turned out awesome. I am currently doing the same thing to a pair of old sunglasses because I love how my shoes turned out so much! I also love glitter, so I am unnaturally excited about this.
These are what my shoes looked like before I got my hands on them. This is literally the same pair-they started out black and everything!
And these are my shoes now! I am in love with them. Considering wearing them to bed...kidding! But I am proud of myself :)
