London and the Navy

Today was another day in the life of me. It started off with meeting with Dr. Walton, the professor who will be teaching us about Shakespeare in London. After meeting with him I got even more excited to go to London hearing about the kind of things we are potentionally going to learn and the things we will go see. I'm exited to go back over the pond for a month, but I'm not excited for what will happen first.

I don't want to have to say bye to Ethan and then two weeks later leave the country and be out of contact with him and my family for a month. I won't know what's going on and how he's doing unless they email me updates. I'm going to get his bootcamp address and send him letters, but it's one of those things where if he earns priviledges and can make a call...and I'm not home...it would just suck. I'm so in love with him that I'm just sad to see him go because once he leaves for bootcamp he'll be gone constantly. There's no Navy base here, so to see him I'd have to go on breaks or summer trips. It'll just be hard for me to lose such a base of support.

But then again, that could make me stronger and our relationship stronger. I'll be able to take care of myself and it'll show people that when we do get married I will be able to handle the long months when he's off to sea. Of course though, Jordan's going to marry one of Ethan's Navy friends and then they'll get based together and we will be together always when the boys are gone. We'll design childrens clothing and have fun times and become famous. Oh, and I'll have a boy and she'll have a girl and they'll grow up together and then get married.

Yea, I know, I'm dillusional, but hey! It's my dream. Haha, Jordan and I joke that one of our husbands are gonna get switched bases and not be together anymore and we'll be crying and say "switch!! I can't live without her!" haha, we're crazy. But we love each other.

Jordan is going to make me a dress for Ethan's graduation from bootcamp. *HINT HINT HINT!!!*

Anyways...in Yoga today my teacher told me I didn't stand correctly. If I have my legs completely straight, then it hurts my knees and they don't bend straight in order to keep my knees strong and safe. Of course now I must fix everything and stand straight, even if in pain. Now my hamstrings hurt like hell...joyous day. I'll see the same teacher tomorrow in Modern Dance, and I'm sure she'll watch my parallel first position. Bleh.

I think I'm going to start writing my story for Hannah-chan again. I based it off a video game (yea, go ahead and call me lame, haha) for a gift for her because it's her favorite story. I think it's time for me to finally finish it. I have everything but the last 1/3 left. I even wrote the Epilogue. Haha, I miss writing...it was theraputic for me. I have a feeling I'll be writing a lot in London where there is soo much inspiration.

Speaking of London, can't wait to take pictures. Jordan thinks that London will be her runway for fashion, so I'm sure we're gonna be the hottest Americans there. Haha, what a cliche thought to have as an American. How about this: we'll be the hottest new chicks in town...is that better? haha, either way, it makes us seem stuck up. Oh well...

Good night dear blog, I guess I'll see you later.

Maiden Voyage

Jordan said I should get a blog so that I could get used to journaling everyday before London...so here I am blog. I mean, I have nothing interesting to post, I'm just an average girl with an average life, but maybe I can scrounge up something interesting. (Honestly though, I should be working on homework, being a double major will be hard if I don't get started on killing  my procrastination habit.)

For now I guess you should know that I am a sophomore Teaching Fellows. I'm dating the best boyfriend ever and I'm so lucky that his past girlfriends were stupid enough to let him go, because now I have him. I am a double major in Theater and English and I'm sure that's going to stop any chance I have at sleeping. (I'm also adding so many commas it's ridiculous...there goes my English side of me!) I'm sitting on the bed of my b.f.f. and we're both blogging (I think she still is). My sister is also a future teacher, and while she'll be much better at it than me, I think it's cool we're both going into the same career. She graduates this year...I'm really excited for her.

I don't really know what to say, dear blog of mine, but I guess when I think of somthing, I'll tell you. As for now, I'm going to eat. (I do this constantly, eating that is.) Till next time, with love.
