UGH!!!!

You know those times when you feel like you are being walked all over! Like you're being taken advantage of.... I hate that feeling! BUT I'm the type of person that doesn't like conflicts so I just keep my mouth shut! UGH!!! It gets so frustrating. I try to help people out and try to fix things so that everyone is happy... I guess I just have to realize that things don't always work out! You just have to grin and bear it cause it's a part of life! There's always another tomorrow!

School is Here!

So school starts this week! I can't believe it. I took two classes in the summer and I had the past 2 1/2 weeks off and it wasn't long enough! However, I am kind of excited to start at Wesminster! It's one step closer to the nursing program! I am taking 14 credit hours! It's the most I've ever taken! That is one thing I am super nervous about! I'm afraid that I'll be a hermit crab because I'll have so much homework! I am definatley going to try my best and hope that I can balance it! Actually there is no other option! HA HA!

I've also added working out into my schedule! Last week was my first week! It was so hard to get my butt out of bed! But I did it! I had a good modivator! Dan and I joined Gold's Gym for a year! We decided that we wanted to look good for our wedding! Go figure! Ha Lol! I thought I was going to die the first week, but I'm still here! It's actually getting easier. I hear that if you make it through the first three weeks you are good to go! I actually feel a lot better, and I have more energy! It definately is a good stress reliever and it's fun to spend time getting fit with my soon to be hubby!

Wendover! Yeah Baby!!

This weekend my family decided that since I turned 21 they would take me out to Wendover! It was a blast! It was quality time well spent with the fam! We gambled a bit, ate a bit, and drank a lot! All in all it was the first time in Wendover and the best time in Wendover! We came back with more than we took! And lots of fun memories to go along with it! Some may be a little blurry but they're there! Just want to say thanks to my family for having a blast with me! I can't wait to do it again! I'm glad we all learned CHOCOLATE CAKE is the best! :)

I'm not the type of person that get to stressed about things! However, there have been two things the past few months that I had what I think was an anxiety attack. I got a tight feeling in my chest and I felt like I couldn't move! The first thing was when we were talking about a price for our wedding! They are freakin expensive! The next was when I applied for the nursing program! They both happened within two months of each other! And when I think about it they are both huge life decisions! I can't ll you how excited I am to get married and it wasn't getting married that caused my tight chest feeling it was the price! When you think that most places are wanting you to pay more for food than any other part of your wedding! Ugh it doesn't make sense! But it's one day that you can't just settle and skimp on things! As for the nursing program I have to wait 5 months to find out if I'm in or not! To find out if the reason that I've been working so hard in school will pay off! It's hard to wait but I guess Good things comes to those who wait!

Finally!

We finally booked a place for our wedding! We had been to look at so many places and we always left saying "Eh it's okay!", "I like this... but not this". We spent about two months looking at places and still not happy with anything! FINALLY, we booked at Millennial Falls in Draper. From the second I walked in I was sold. It was absolutely beautiful! We walked to the outside patio and the waterfall was amazing! Then they showed us the brides room! AHH! It was huge and so pretty! Other places had me using a public bathroom! EWWW! We then saw the grooms room! I was so happy that they had a grooms room! NO other place had one! They even have a kids room so those with kids can bring them and enjoy the wedding as well! After touring the whole place we looked at each other and said this is the place! We loved it! And to be truthful I'm so glad that we found such a great place. I didn't want to just settle. I wanted to have my fairytale wedding that I've thought about since I was little! And it made my day when Dan turned to me with a huge smile on his face and said I'm sold!

I am new to the blogger world and am still trying to figure out how to make my page cute and put cool things on it! I decided to start blogging when my friend said " Hey you should get a blog!" I haven't had the time to sit and actually make one til now! It's actually pretty fun! I love the fact that I can stay up to date on the new things going on in my friends lives. Sometimes I feel like life is flying by and I'm struggling to keep up with it! I am currently going to school and have just applied for the Nursing Program! Ah! It's a big thing to finally be able to see a light at the end of the tunnel! I graduated high school three years ago and jumped right into prerequisites for nursing and am finally finished with them. I work at Primary Children's Medical Center and I love it! I mean who can say that they get paid to hold little cuddly babies and get kids Popsicles! It's the best job ever! So between my job and school that takes up a lot of my time! AND I now am engaged to Daniel Cuvelier! I like to say that! He takes up pretty much all of my time! He is my best friend and love of my life! I always asked my friends and family how would I know who I'm suppose to spend the rest of my life with. I always thought it would take forever! They said Erica you'll just know! I didn't believe it. How can you just know! Well it happened to me when I was least expecting it! And after a few days, can you believe it, just a few days I knew! It is the coolest feeling! And now I know what they were all talking about. I can't imagine my life without him! I love him with all my heart!
