O life!

SO MUCH has been going on lately. SO MUCH. I don't even know where to begin.
I keep meaning to post about work here, but I never do. Now it's built up to so much of a story...omg. On that subject though, I quit! If I had stuck around for another week, they would have made me sign a contract, which I didn't want. I didn't want to do that for SO. MANY. REASONS! Anyway, I really wasn't having a great time at that school, and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. I still get EI until the end of June, so yay! I have NO idea what I'll do for the summer, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Maybe I'll work in a cafe for a bit or something. :P Anyway, whatever! I'll figure it out.

The wedding. Ah, the wedding! So much planning. And drama. You can't avoid the drama, but you handle it the best you can. My perspective is that it's OUR wedding (meaning, me and Mike's) and OUR day, and no one else's. Certain family members have expressed dismay at certain apsects of our wedding, or the way we're doing things, to which I have no problem telling them toooooo bad. I've made a few compromises here and there, of course, to be civil, and there's certain things I don't mind changing to keep the peace. But overall, my stand is, if you don't like it, too bad, it's NOT your wedding. :) Teaching high school has changed me a LOT. For the better. I've become so much more assertive! What an important life skill to hone, no? <3

what are people geting up in arms about? Like what wedding thing could someone really disagree so strongly about?

All kinds of things. For example, the amount of people we want to invite, the fact that we're not letting anyone bring their kids; those kinds of things.

well, im glad you're compromising on some stuff, but mostly just saying that its your wedding and not theirs. people are so strange.

People most definitely are strange, I can't argue with you there. ;) I don't know why people think they can dictate what I do. Just the fact that it's going to a video game-themed wedding with Nintendo music and a Zelda cake, etc., should be enough to let them know that HELLS NO I ain't doing this the 'traditional' way! XD
