sunday blues

ok so i don't really have the sunday blues buuuut it IS doing a lot of this outside...

which makes me think of this...

Chris is here working (like he does every day) and i miss him (cheesy. i know.).

SO to keep myself occupied (besides using google image to make this blog) i started our wedding registry at target. talk about over.whelmed. HOLY. seriously there is SO much to look through that i quit after about 10 minutes because i didn't even know where to start.

also doubly whammy. i misssssss target SO so bad. i go to target weekly. yes weekly when i am home. its an hour away here (which is probably good for my already dwindling bank account) but seriously. i miss it.

also i have been watching waaaay too much of this show and staying up waaaay to late because of it. it's addicting. judge me. i don't care. chris totally already does. its fine.

and because i only have one more episode to catch up on, i decided to blog and am currently listening to this cd. if you don't have it...GET IT. such a good christmas cd (kinda like the nsync christmas cd that i've had since middle school that i still look forward to listening to every year).

and i really really wouldn't mind curling up on the couch with a blanket and watching this movie with the babes back home. because lets face it. hawaii does NOT feel like christmas at all and back home it does. and i'm sure in the coming weeks this will be watched multiple times at home.

speaking of....i miss these people. a lot.

happy sunday :]

it doesn't get cuter...

than these little loves that i call my brother and sister. seriously how cute are these kids?!

rewind

yesterday i got on of these for my birthday (the new itouch...ps its AWESOME)

as i was looking up my facebook on said gadget i noticed that it said i had some 16 messages in my inbox. so in an attempt to not get annoyed by the little red 16 appearing everytime i open facebook on my itouch i decided that i would go through and delete the annoying group messages that people send from time to time. while doing this, i found a real treat...a message between chris and i from over a year ago and i haven't stopped smiling since i read it.

dated October 14, 2009 at 12:35 am he wrote me something like this (i'm only pulling parts of it):

"just wanted you to know i have enjoyed talking to you recently....i like you a lot. you are the coolest prettiest person i know."

notice the date. almost exactly (to the day...october 15th) one year later we got engaged. i should probably document stuff like this in a journal. it just made me really happy and really grateful and really in love with him even more.

january 15th please hurry!!!

i will own this....

meet the "hobo lauren double frame clutch" wallet. i will own it. maybe not in either of these colors, but alas. it will be mine.

how functional and awesome is this wallet?!? i swoon. if only it weren't $100. deeeepressing.

now back to finishing chris's religion homework. yeah...i must love him or something :]

birthday wish list

and yes chipotle is on there because i miss it a lot and it is delicious and there is no good mexican on this hawaiian island and i pretty much dream of eating there daily :[

but mostly i just want the itouch.....

"I wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad..."

fact: my car got a flat tire today as chris was driving home

fact: i haven't seen him all day because he has been trying to get home from turtle bay while solving the problem.

fact: i hate car problems. and fixing the alignment on my car (which prob caused the flat tire) is going to be expensive. oh joy.

fact: its my day off and i have done nothing productive (except i did email byui about teacher cert stuff...thats kinda productive)

fact: the weather has been craaaaazy all day/week. like pouring down rain, sunny, cloudy, rainy, pouring, windy, sunny, cloudy. all day. and i didn't have a car so that was my excuse to not be productive....or to leave the house. except for when i went out and sat on the sidewalk when it was nice outside...and to kinda sulk a little.

fact: taylor swifts new cd is goooood. go buy it. go buy it NOW! (and maybe i cried a little at the end of the song "never grow up")

fact: we were supposed to take engagement pictures today but didn't because of the car. booo. but just to spite the car i'm still going to wear the outfit i was going to wear for pictures anyways.

fact: i hate fake nails. they hurt and are annoying.

fact: "i wanna be a billionaire so freaking bad"

stress

maybe pretty pictures will get rid of the stress?

I decided to tell myself i wasn't really stressed out. I did a little assessment in my mind of all the things i have going on/need to focus on before i fell asleep and decided that telling myself i wasn't stressed was a big fat lie.

there is a lot going on over here in hawaii for things that are happening on the mainland. ahhh

current stressers consist of

-wedding stuff. i just wish i could be home to help with planning and not have to rely on emails of pictures and links to know what is going to be incorporated into my wedding. at the same time, i'm already going to be away from chris for a month in december until the wedding. i can't win with this situation.

-sub teaching. why do you suck and i haven't even subbed one class? i put in my sub packet information over a month ago and they had a miscommunication and told me i didn't need to have proof of a teaching credential and that my degree would be enough. lies. SO now, in order to sub i need to get my teaching certificate (which is fine, but i have to figure out what all is necessary for the application) and not being in idaho, or california where all my papers are, is quite stressful.

-work. i just don't love it. I work a lot of hours for little pay and i'm over it. not a fan of working at a gift shop as i did invest a lot of time and hard work into earning a college degree. its despressing. i should be thankful i have a job though. but still.

-chris graduating. i know this isn't really my thing BUT you better believe its my job to help him. which is fine, and i don't mind, there is just a lot to get done and do before december rolls around. so.much.to.do. our time together now consists of eating something and doing hw or falling asleep being we are both so wiped.
