Day 207

I did it. I gave into peer pressure, you guys. I got a Pinterest. 

Now, I know that my wedding isn't for almost another three years but I'm so excited for it and Pinterest isn't helping. At least I actually have a fiancé. That makes the whole planning-my-wedding-on-Pinterest thing slightly less pathetic...right? No? Still pathetic? ........... Yeah, I know it is. 

I was never one of those little girls that dreamed about their wedding. I never fantasized about my perfect dress and a handsome Prince Charming sweeping me off my feet. The only thing I really looked forward to with my future was my job. Probably up until 3rd grade I wanted so badly to be a paleontologist (around 3rd grade is when I realized how rare it is to actually find dinosaur bones and that most of the work isn't digging around in the sand, it's in a lab). I've always been very career centered. Hell, even a year ago I was convinced I was going to be single for a very long time because of it. And now I'm engaged... Funny how that turned out.

It's not that I'm not career centered now though just because of Sam. I still care very much about what I'm going to be working as the rest of my life. It's just not the ONLY thing now. And that feels good.
