So today Marcus called me up asking if I wanted to go to lunch, so we decided to go to the wonderful Lavender Bistro which is kind of an Asian fusion restaurant. I got some delicious Panang curry (gotta love the Thai food!) and it had this HUGE broccoli floret in it and I couldn't cut through it with my fork cause it was kinda tough and I didn't want to put the entire thing in my mouth so I tried to delicately pick it up and bite into it so I only ate half and then ate the other half after. Well delicately turned into completely and terribly embarrassing because not only did I end up pulling the broccoli off my fork, but it also flew into my face and I got panang curry in one of my eyes and it burned so bad I almost cried emotionally in addition to involuntarily. It was terrible. Of course, when I told my parents this story my dad so nicely made it apparent that I succeeded at getting slapped in the face with broccoli which made it sound even sillier. Oy...

Other than that, lunch was delicious. :P

He's coming over and we're watching the American Idol finale. I don't watch the show as much as I used to but I've paid some attention to this season more towards the end than the beginning so this time I can actually root for someone. That being said, I'll be praying that KRIS ALLEN's dream comes true tonight!!!

Oh, how I love when things work out for the better. Just as we found out that the litter of puppies we were hoping to choose from didn't even exist (don't ask me how it was all misunderstood, I really can't explain) and the ones we were hoping to choose from didn't work out either, the breeder we were in contact with referred us to this other woman who has a litter of 5 week old puppies of which we are officially going to visit and choose from! In a nutshell, we will most likely be bringing home a cute little 8 week old golden retriever puppy in 2 WEEKS rather than anytime in between the beginning of July and end of August. I love the way the Lord takes care of us. I was so bummed about leaving Berry this past semester, but after I was home, things happened that I was so glad I was home for. Once I decided I was moving to Athens mid-August, I realized I probably wouldn't be able to help much or spend time with the puppy if we were to bring her home in August, and lo and behold, she's going to be here the entire summer! It brings me closer and closer with the belief that at least most everything happens for a reason! These next two weeks will go by so slow! I'm so excited. Pictures and video will most likely be found all over the place. ;)

Work is still a little nerve wrecking. I'm still making boo boo's but I'd like to think I'm improving. Almost everyone there is really nice, and I've already made a few friends through working there. Which reminds me... yesterday after lunch at Moe's, I was expecting to ride around with Marcus while he picked up work applications, which he did, but beforehand we suddenly were parked right in front of Bath and Body Works. I had no idea why he brought me there, and the only thought I had was maybe he just wanted to take me there so I could stop in and say hi to people. Apparently, the entire time after he asked me to go with him, he was planning on buying me a few items there in the scent of my choice. I know it's a materialistic one, but this is a perfect example of how sweet he is, and it reminds me of how lucky I am that we have such a strong relationship. :) He is my best friend always along with my boyfriend. I'm sorry for being a big cheese ball, but it was so sweet I just had to share. It's not like he gets that many shout outs on this thing. ;) but seriously, the Lord is wonderful for bringing us together so long ago. I promise, I'm done now. :P

Just a few more minutes until we leave to go select what will be our precious little addition! :) Until next time...

Working Girl

Finally! After 2 or 3 summers of things getting in the way or not getting called, I'm finally employed by somewhere other than Berry College or a neighbor who needs a sitter. Today was technically my second day at bath and body works, but it was my first day really working and not watching a video about what bath and body works and working there is all about. I don't know if it's just a first day facade or not, but I think I'm going to really enjoy it. I'm fully prepared to endure frustration every now and then, as all jobs come with their fair share of frustrations, but I honestly thing God picked the perfect job for me. I thought I was going to be all over the place like a chicken with its head cut off, but honestly, it was not hard to approach customers, it wasn't hard making transactions, and...well...I can't say it was easy answering all the customers' questions, but I'm sure that takes a little bit of time. I really do think I'm going to enjoy this job this summer, and hopefully once I moved to Athens, I'll be able to transfer to the one there. Speaking of living in Athens, it's also an exciting time because I officially signed the lease last weekend, so come August, I will be living in Athens with my bff and living 15 minutes away from Marcus. I'm really looking forward to getting to know my other roommates,getting moved in,decorating and such as ;) As is everyone, I'm sure, when they move into their first apartment. I mean, I was even like that moving into my first dorm room, so...

Still waiting super impatiently for puppy. It won't be to the middle to end of the summer till she (we know we want a girl) comes home which is frustrating out the wazoo, but that only means it'll be longer before she grows into a big'un. ;)

I'm going to continue listenin' to Hairspray. :D Have a good weekend yall! <3
