when i was little and kept a diary, i would go through spurts of writing every day…and then i would get busy (more likely move onto something else) and a dearth of entries would follow for like 2 years. then i would find an old diary and be like, “hey i miss writing” and it would begin again.
apparently old habits die hard.
i guess now i have a pretty decent excuse that works for everything from blog-silence to dirty dishes in the sink: law school.
i am now in the throes of my final year and i’m stunned as to where the time has gone. to ease myself into reentry into the blogosphere, i thought a brief recap a la the-first-minute-of-a-glee-episode would be apropos.
here is what i have failed to post about in the almost year and a half since i last wrote.
the rest of 2010: ~finished first year of law school~sf giants won the world series~we adopted a french bulldog named marleau…best dog in the world~celebrated thanksgiving with boyfriend’s entirely family~finally decorated our house appropriately for christmas~rang in the new year determined to make 2011 even better.
2011 thus far: ~i competed in my first triathlon~finished second year of law school~added new raised beds to the garden~created better entertainment areas in the yard~enjoyed life as dog owners~traveled to australia to visit my sister in cairns~worked our butts off~traveled to vienna, tuscany, venice & london…and in venice, boyfriend proposed!!!~started third year as an engaged couple trying to balance law school, home improvement, dog-ownership, eating healthy, and WEDDING PLANNING~i finished my first half marathon and have vowed to keep running.
i hope to create posts with more detailed updates about each of these events, but…don’t hold your breath
now that the blur of the last few months has passed and reality has set in, i’m hoping that this will serve as a forum for me to stay sane, keep everything in perspective, and share my view on the new journey upon which future hubby and are embarking. i know we have been together a long time, but the ring on my finger is more than just a pretty piece of jewelry…it’s tangible commitment, a sign that yes, we are in this for the long haul.
i can’t wait. <3
