Day Forty; Brandon time.

I got to go to Brandon's today, so of course it was a good day. Before I left, I mailed off the crazy amount of scholarship stuff I completed yesterday. That felt extremely nice. We also began writing sonnets in English today. Love, love, love.

Brandon had a soccer game tonight. They lost, but Brandon did great. It was my first time seeing him play. He looked wonderful on the field. It was freeeezing though.

I'm lying down watching TV with him now. Our six month anniversary is tomorrow. Yay. 

Day Thirty-Nine; Mania.

Today consisted of school (joy!) and working my butt off on scholarship things. The picture you see above is my mom's computer, where I have spent the majority of my day. My back is killing me, and I don't care if I sound whiny.

I got four scholarships ready to mail in, and I applied to ten or more online. I would say that's pretty productive, right? Right.

While doing this, I also babysat. I put two sick kids to bed. I think I might be on the verge of being a superhero.

I also had to worry about the stupid weather. I hope it doesn't prevent me going to Brandon's tomorrow. No one thinks it will, but knowing my luck...bleh. I'm also in a bad mood because I just deleted the entirety of Brandon any my conversation off of my iPhone, a conversation I haven't deleted since I got the phone...on October 18, 2009. You know what that is? Sad.

Day Thirty-Eight; Being a good girlfriend.

To be honest, most things I did today can't yet be posted online. Cassi and I hung out, spent some time in Little Rock, and dropped by Brandon's to tell him goodnight. He seemed so happy. I hope I get to see him tomorrow. If not, I can't wait until Friday.

Those are the Valentines I bought for myself. Reminds me of the musical. 

Day Thirty-Seven; Snow day part four million, three hundred and sixty-six thousand, four-hundred and twelve.

I am STILL very sick of the snow. Nothing happened today to change my opinion on that. Even worse? Our plumbing has been backed up since yesterday. That is NO good when you're snowed in. I spent my day sleeping because my allergies were killing me. My eyes keep watering every five minutes, and my nose and ears are pure hell. When I wasn't asleep, I was reading Harry Potter. I downloaded a few ringtones for my phone, and that's about it. We are going back to school tomorrow, thank goodness. That's right. I'm HAPPY we're going. Forecast still predicts snow Thursday night. I'm still hoping that Mommy Dearest lets me head to Brandon's Thursday after school. I can't miss this weekend. It's Jill's going away party, Brandon and my six month anniversary, AND Valentine's Day. I CAN'T and WON'T miss all that. I am now going to go read Harry Potter some more and then go to bed.

Oh yeah, I also watched the first day of American Idol's Hollywood Week. Yay!

Day Thirty-Six; Snow day part one million and seventy-six.

I'm going to say this one time, so listen (or read) carefully: I AM SICK OF THE SNOW! No seriously. I was hoping and hoping for no snow. What do we get? Snow. That's what. Brandon's game today? Canceled. I was really looking forward to that, too. And guess what? No school AGAIN tomorrow. Our school is considering making us come for Saturday schools because we have missed so many days. It's so frustrating. AND it's supposed to snow again Thursday night. Hopefully my mom will let me go to Brandon's Thursday, and if it doesn't snow, I'll leave early Friday morning and go to school.

I spent all day today wishing I had just stayed at Brandon's last night. I missed him, to say the least. I read a lot of Harry Potter, something I have neglected for a few days on accident. Cassi came over. I put on my Winterfest dress (February 27), and she did a few different hairstyles until she found the one she is going to do for me that day. Thank goodness for her. I don't feel like paying for it to be quite honest.

As for now, I'm just about to go lie down in Macie's room. She's spending the night at her friend's house tonight, and her room is much warmer than mine. I'll probably read some more, watch some TV, eat a little snack, call Brandon to say goodnight, and hit the hay. My allergies are being terrible today.

The picture above? My mommy made me pancakes this morning, and outside you can see the blizzard. Seriously, the most snow we've gotten in forever. Lame.

Day Thirty-Five; Who loves random dates? Me.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, let me explain.

Okay, the day started with Brandon waking me up and telling me to come lay down with him. He always does this in the mornings. We aren't allowed to sleep in the same room, of course, but we're allowed to nap together in the mornings once other people are awake in the house. We quickly realized we couldn't fall back to sleep, something that doesn't usually happen. Jill and Caitlin were going to be out and about that morning. Jill came in Erin's room where we were lying down, and gave Brandon her card, telling him to go to the mall and look for shoes, which he needs.

A few hours later, we finally got up and about and got ready to go to the mall. We first went to Park Plaza and had fun walking around. Brandon got a jacket in Forever 21, but he didn't find any shoes he liked. He DID make a request that I buy him a grill for Valentine's Day. We shall see. Baha.

After the mall and some scrumdiddlyumptious Dippin' Dots Ice Cream, we went to Sports Authority, a place that I had already assumed to be quite boring. Boy, was I mistaken? We played ping pong there for like an hour. Seriously. When we FINALLY left, Brandon bought some athletic gloves to keep his widdo fingers warm during his games, the first of which is tomorrow. For once, I'm really hoping it doesn't snow so that I will be able to go to his game. I'm not crossing my fingers, though. Every time I do that, bad stuff happens.

After Sports Authority, we went to lunch/dinner at McAlister's. We shared a huge bacon spud, which Brandon was quick to point out was only two regular sized potatoes put together. I had broccoli cheese soup, and he had some panini thing that he kept trying to convince me had poop in it. What a weirdo.

We then went to Wal-Mart very quickly and then headed home to watch the Superbowl. We were BOTH very happy with the outcome. Go Saints!

I hate leaving. I'm home now, though. It's so hard to say bye to him. Good news is, as long as it doesn't snow and ice and all that crap, I'll see him tomorrow for his game. I can't wait to see him play. I bet he is going to be amazing!

What did I realize this weekend? Something that I, of course, already knew. It was just strengthened; reinforced, if you will. I have a best friend and a boyfriend all molded into one person. With this person, I can play ping pong even though I suck, and he will look like he is having the time of his life, which is exactly the way I feel. I can be laughed at for eating my ice cream too slowly or discuss whether or not that is one potato or two. I can cuddle up and watch football with him and actually give a damn, something that is amazing. I have a person that I can be myself with 100%. I have a person that I love, unconditionally, a person that I will continue loving until...well, forever.

Hi, sorry for the mushyness, but that's what my day was. Oh, and the picture was Brandon singing to me. Bahaha.

Day Thirty-Four; Reminders.

This post is, again, late. I think one post a week will have to be late for me, unfortunately. Saturday? I went to see Dear John with Brandon, Caitlin, and Sierra. Jill, Mr. and Mrs. Moon, and Devin went to see a different movie, The Book of Eli. They said it was amazing. Dear John was, of course, sad. I didn't expect anything less coming from Nicholas Sparks. The ending was questionable.

Brandon and I spent a great deal of the day fighting, coming to a bang when we went to get pizza for the family. I hate fighting with him, and we do so extremely rarely. By the end of the night, however, we had made up. I stared at my promise ring and realized that nothing was ever going to come between us, no matter how big or small. He promised, and so do I.

That is, by far, the most important thing that happened to me Saturday. Our bond became even stronger, something I am always amazed is even possible. I love him very much, if you can't already tell.
