| | It's amazing how things can change so suddenly. One minute I'm a freshman in high school, the next I'm graduating college. Time certainly has been relentless with me, never ceasing or giving me a moment to catch my breath. I'm always shocked at how fast things happen. I have one more year left in college. I am more than ready to let out that big sigh of relief when I can proudly display my B.A. degree on my wall. I'd be the second person in two generations of my family to graduate from college, so this means something special to me. I worked very hard to put myself through college, and now I can finally reap the benefits.
I wonder where do I go from here, I've been looking for internships, part-time jobs. and the like, but nothing seems to fit my hectic schedule at the moment. Once I graduate, I'm most likely going to find a full-time job, save up enough so I can buy a nice little apartment or house, and get married to my long-time sweetheart. That's definitely my ideal for the future. Nothing too extravagant or expensive. I'm a simple girl, and all I want is a quiet simple life in New York. I know I'm already being unrealistic, as life has its ways of knotting itself into undoable twists and tangles, but can't a girl dream? Grad school is another possibility, but I'd rather not think about it after already spending 18 years of my life in school. Maybe later on when I'm more situated.
I look back and I can't help but be terribly grateful for all the friends I have and have had because without them my life would really be empty and boring. Also for those who taught me that hate is just a waste of perfectly good energy. (What am I talking about? I have no enemies! =D) I'm grateful for my family for always backing me up when I needed it and lastly I am grateful to my fiancé, who gives me the courage and the love to do things I never would have thought were possible.
I wake up every morning and thank whatever higher power there is watching over this small galaxy that I have a man who loves me as much as he does. He has been through a lot and yet he still has patience for my foolishness and rediculous optimism, he still tries to make me laugh, and most of all he still says "Cat, I love you so much" everyday. Whenever he really hugs me I just want to cry, because I'm just so happy to be in his arms.
I have never been loved so unconditionally before, I want to give him every part of my heart and soul in return for all the kindness and love he has ever given to me. Even after all the time we've been together he still gives me butterflies in my stomach and I still get shivers down my spine when he kisses me. I can honestly say I love this man, and I truly want to spend the rest of my life with him. I never thought pumpkin and Oldspice could be such a flawless combination.
P.S. I wear pumpkin lotion and Chriz wears Oldspice, so that's why it's titled the way it is.
