So Much to get Done and So Little Time!

So I found out that planning a wedding is NOTHING compared to being married, working full time taking classes part time and joining a Bible study, all at the same time. So far I am alive, but so busy that I have to keep reminding myself of it!

First of all: about being married: Its great!! Jonathan and I spent this last weekend together on a nice long date! We went to see Sleeping Beauty, the ballet at MCaw Hall in Seattle! It was so beautiful and the music was amazing! I have decided that I really like Ballet's.. you get great music and a beautiful story all at the same time!
Second: Work: It's going pretty well, We have our "spirit Spotlight" this Friday and the theme is Cinco De Mayo.. so I have to dress up in a Mexican Theme... not sure if I can do that as well as I did the 70's theme. We will see
Third: Class. I am taking a film class, which I thought would be interesting and mildly fun. I was wrong. I HATE it. Some of the reading I am doing has interesting information, and it is interesting to see a different variety of films than I am used to. BUT the format of the class, the amound of reading and the testing layout drives me crazy!! Each week I have to read between 40 and 70 pages, which in itself is not bad, normally I could do that in 30 mins to an hour. But in order to compare it to the movie and remember all the info I have to take extensive notes, whcih means I spend about 4-7 HOURS on the reading. Then I re-read the chapter quickly and review my notes a couple of times and watch the film then review my notes again. And still I do poorly on the test. This class is the bane of my current existance.
Fourth: Bible Study: I am really excited about this, unfortunatly is does require quite a chunk of time outside of the Wednesday meetings which coincide with my test due dates for the hated film class. Luckily we are doing it for 20 weeks instead of 10, which means, I will be attending every other meeting until class is over.
Life in General:
We got a new digital camera that I am really excited about, I finally uploaded the software onto the computer and have even edited the photos so that they look good! Now I jsut have to put them on the blog.... coming soon I hope.
My best friend and cousin is having a baby boy in the next month or so and I am making a quilt for him.... which is another thing on my plate at the moment, but I think it is going to be very cute in a rugged baby boy way :)
I am looking forward to coming down this week to celebrate Teresa's Birthday and Mother's Day this weekend!
Sorry it is such a long blog.. and that is has been such a long time!
God Bless all of you!!
