  • 2014, new apt, school accepted, and marriage. *Wedding pics too!*

    So I haven’t logged into this thing in a llooooonnnggg time.
    I’m sure my membership will expire soon, I can’t remember when it started but someone gifted it to me.
    This place is so different, sadly, I don’t see myself paying to stay on once it expires. I guess that means this might be the last post :(

    But what I wanted to do with this post was go over some of what has been going on just to catch those who care up.
    It looks like my last post was December 13, 2013. In that I talked about moving in to my first apartment.

    Well, Trey and I are all moved in now. I really like the place. Only real complaint would be lack of storage space, particularly in the kitchen, but it works.
    Spring semester just consisted of trig for me because I didn’t need any other classes and I wanted to keep my scholarship on hold so I could use it when I really needed 15+ hours. I passed with a very high A!

    After getting some good news January 31st, Trey and I started planning our wedding. The date was set for May 17th, 2014.
    A week before the wedding we found out he had to go to sniper school that day. He thought it had to report by night, but the day before we learned it had to be there from 6am-5pm, so I pushed the wedding back from 3pm to 7pm.
    It all worked out and we’re now married. He had to leave right afterwards though, so my wedding night consisted of margarita’s and hanging out with my in-laws lol.

    Oh yeah, I turned 21 on April 7th.

    A few weeks after my birthday I got a letter from UAMS. I got accepted to the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program! :D I’ve started one of the classes which is online (Basic Patient Care/Medical Terminology) and the other 15 hours will start next month. (And yes, that’s 18 hours all together… pray for me!)

    Married life is good, but lonely. After the wedding Trey went off to sniper school, then he had AT (annual training), now the army has him at some leadership course, but he’ll be done with it on Friday. I think the leadership course is because they’re about to promote him to E5.
    He thinks he’ll also be going to OCS (officer something) next summer which is 8 weeks because they want to send him to PA school. After PA school he’d be a lieutenant, but his unit only has a spot for a PA if they’re a Captain, so they’re going to get him promoted as high as possible, as quickly as possible. (At least, I believe that is what he said, I’m going off of memory.)

    Let’s see, what else…. I got a kitty back in January. Her name is Azura, but we just call her kitty (it took us a week to decide on a name and after calling her kitty for a week, it’s just habit now). She’s 4 years old and really lovey! She is really well behaved and doesn’t have an attitude like most cats. She just wants love and pets, and if no one will give them to her then she rubs up again the coffee table or chairs to “pet” herself lol.

    I suppose I can’t really think of any other news to update you with, so I’ll just try to attach a few pictures- one of my kitty, and the rest from the wedding.
