Not calling it a resolution..
because then I’ll break it. LoL.
But I am going back to Weight Watchers tonight and I plan on actually sticking to it and not cheating and actually losing weight. My cousin and my aunt have each lost over 60 pound on WW, so now I have proof that it works. Yes, I’ve heard about other people’s success stories, but it’s never been someone close to me, so that makes it more real. I am also planning on joining the Perinton Rec Center which is $24 a month if you are a student which includes a track, work out room, and swimming pool. Woot. So that should help. My fiance is considering joining as well because he is not particularly happy with the little bit of a tummy that he has.
Still don’t have an exact date for the wedding, although 5/15/2010 seems to be in the forefront… I don’t want to officially choose the date until we know if we have a reception place/ceremony site, which we can’t figure out until we have guest list estimate which I can’t get Joel to work on. I may just assume 150-200 people and start looking at locations more seriously… lalala, still excited to be engaged. Whenever I start feeling upset or unhappy about anything (including non-wedding related things), I can interrupt it with “We’re engaged!!!” and instantly feel better. 
It’s kinda funny because I feel like Joel and I have gotten even more lovey-dovey (if that’s possible). I don’t know how that is, but it’s definitely nice. I love my fiance!! (not that I didn’t before, I just felt like reiterating that)
A week until my ring is finished getting resized!!!! Woot Woot!!
An engaging post…
Joel and I are engaged now!!! In half an hour, it’ll have been an entire day! 
I was cleaning my house for the party yesterday and I was stressed out and cranky and I needed to go pick Joel up from his apartment. He told me to come up when I got there, because he needed help carrying some stuff…
When I walked in, he was sitting on the couch, with a bunch of gerbera daisies and limonium on the table! (probably some of my favourite flowers)… and we sat there for a bit just hugging and being all snuggly and he handed me a poem and told me to read it out loud… I was too embarrassed to read it out loud, so I read it to myself. Here’s the poem:
Suzi is the girl for me
I just wish that you could see
Love I feel will always be
You are the love that sets me free
Be it shining outside or raining
With you I won’t be complaining
Me, I’ll smile with you anyway
Forever loving you, day after day
I love the way you smile
Love the way you’ll stay a while
You joke around so easily
So I hope that you’ll bear with me
Will you forgive a simple jest
You always laughed at all the rest
Merry little game by a nerd
Me? I’d read each first word.
And yes, it says merry not marry, but it’s a bad pun and that’s awesome and so us.
I of course said yes… and that I would also Pippin him.
He then told me that he didn’t have a ring because he looked online and at a couple places and just couldn’t find anything sufficiently “Suzi”, so we went ring shopping today!! We found a gooooooorgeous ring that was in the price range and very me. Click here to see it on the website. They have to resize it and stuff, so it won’t be ready until January 15th, but until then, I’m wearing my Claddagh ring as a “placeholder”.
The wedding is probably going to be in May 2010, perhaps the 15th… but that’s not set in stone yet. We need to figure out a venue and all that jazz first!!!
SOOOOO HAPPY!!!!
