things that make you think.

So,I have been putting this off for a LONG time. I don't know why really. I guess the thought of sitting here and typing till my fingers fall off just didn't rub me the right way. But I figured tonight would be a good night to start. Considering I am bored out of my ever loving mind. So I thought now would be a great time to start this.

A lot has changed since I turned 21. I keep saying 21 was my time.
I have made several new friends. I have an awesome job. And December 24 2010 Josh and I got engaged.

Now let me tell you a little bit about us(people have been saying we are too young to be engaged)

We have been together for THREE years. We have known each other for THIRTEEN years! It's kinda funny how things have worked out.

So here is THAT story.

(now hold your horses. i'll tell you the "marry me?"story in a second.you need to know US first)

Now Josh and I been (went) to the same schools pretty much all of our life. We went to Elementary school together. Middle School and High School.

Now,all of this started in 3rd grade. YES 3rd GRADE! Wow,is right folks!

We used to get married all the time on the playground=)
He used to pick on my and everything!=)

As we got older things changed of course. We went onto Middle School.(now that's where my feelings got really strong!)
We would talk every now and then. Because we hardly seen each other.
Onto High school(i know by now you're wondering when it gets good)we NEVER seen each other! Maybe once in a blue moon.I'd hear rumors about a kid named Josh liking me. But I just over looked it. I thought it was lies. He was a football player I was the rebel. I THOUGHT I was WAY outta his league.
Well he ended up moving away. And I thought that was the last I'd EVER see of him!

Well,in the ending of May 2007 I got a friend request from Josh . And I swear,my heart went all kinds of crazy. We talked EVERY night! Every day! ALL THE TIME!
Then around April 8th I asked him out. 2 days later I broke up with him because I was falling in love and I was scared and then April 18th 2007 he said and I quote "YOU ARE MY BABY" and BAM!
Now,here is what you have been waiting for!(drum rolls)
Every year on Christmas Eve Josh and I and his family all go to Atl and eat at the Varsity and go to Olympic park for lights and hot chocolate and ice skating. Well,everyone is taking pics and Kyle is like "Okay,whose next?" Josh is like Candice and I. So we walk up to the HUGE tree(pic soon) and I get all posed and ready and Josh is like, "Wait,I want you to read my shirt first" and me knowing Josh and knowing his personalty,I'm thinking it's some stupid shirt! Well he unzipped his coat and there is was "Will You marry Me?". All I could do was cry for a few minutes. And everyone's face was like "um....YES". Finally I say YEAH....YES.!!!!" And he slips the ring on my finger!

There you have that story!

Onto the next!
Every year people say things are gonna be different and what not. Well,this year I am STAYING THE SAME! Well,I am gonna dye my hair but that's different! I mean,I'm not changing who I am! I like who I am!

Now,this post wasn't to brag about my great job,kick ass friends or my wonderful newly FIANCE'.It was to simply tell you how much my life has changed since I turned 21.

I have learned a lot about life.
People come in and out of your life. They turn their backs on you when something doesn't turn out right. They stab you in the back when someone new comes around. They turn on you in a SECOND.
I have patched up some lose ends. And the ones I haven't patched up ,well there is a reason behind that.
I am 21 years old. I don't need high school drama.


I love my life now. 21 has been a good number for me!
My life could not be any more amazing!
