Do you ever realize how much you need to do...for example, pack for your week at home/wedding, pack up all of your belongs so you can move after said wedding, solve all the stupids problems with said wedding, figure out what kind of black hole swallowed half of our wedding invitations in the mail, grovel to those who didn't receive one, ask if they still want to come even though it's only 10 days away, do you actual job, prep for Bible study, field many questions about your future, eat food, sleep...

but then you just drink coffee and eat brownies and watch Youtube videos? Am I an adult? How do I become an actual adult?

I'm actually pretty okay. I always get nervous people who I know in real life will read my blog and tell my mom that I'm losing my cool over here. Don't tell my mom! I'm fine.

I just need to make a to-do list, drink 3 more cups of coffee, and finish off that tray of brownies.

Whew. Thanks for listening.

I'm getting married in two weeks and this is how I feel:

That's all. Have a great Saturday/Sunday depending on your time zone.

Friends, I wrote a blog post on my other blog that I share with Hannah.

You should shimmy on over there and read it, if you'd like. It's about John Paul and how I was angsty about him for a long time.

Thanks! Happy Feast day of St. John Paul the Great!

one of us, one of us

As many of you know I am getting married real soon. I promise I won't dedicate every post to that, but I can't promise that quite yet.

So we were also looking for an apartment because married people like to live together. But Berkeley is legit the worst for apartment hunting. We applied to maaaaaany different places, were beat out on all occasions, lost a lot of money to pay for application fees (maybe not constitutional) and mostly just got our hopes up.

The good news (whew) is that the apartment John lives in now is perfectly fine. Just over-priced. And very small. Like really small.

But it's not a studio, so it has walls, which is a lot better than a lot of our options out here.

So get excited for this blog to become me attempting to make a teeeny apartment more homey.

I should probably get my own show on HGTV. Something to think about.

Thanks for your prayers and support.
