I haven't posted in a few days so I figured today warranted two posts to share what I have been up to.  When I'm not romanticizing my wedding day (which I have justified since physics and statistics are about to take over my life), I have been spending much of my free time reading.

I am 1/3 of the way through Life of Pi by Yann Martel, and I am flying through its pages.  There have been a few noteworthy passages on religion and spirituality but the adventure story that it is races you past them, almost to the point that you forget.  Maybe it will require a second reading to digest the deeper parts.




Sometimes I feel like no one has more wardrobe breakdowns than me, so I am committing myself to be more fashionable.  I know this isn't true but this is one area I am prone to a pity-party.  As mentioned before, Crossroads on Hawthorne is my affordable fashion resource, and I did a little back to school shopping there today.  I limit myself to purchase only items under $10, which really helps boost my wardrobe.  I am trying to grow my hair out a little more before I go into a salon, but I hope my next haircut can be a little more fashionable than the last.  Last on my fashionista agenda is a make-up makeover, but that is a ways away.

Daniel's parents came into town to celebrate our engagement.  We had a wonderful dinner and got to show off our apartment.  It made me so excited to see my Mom here in June.  They gave me this infinity necklace as a "welcome to the family" gift.  I think it is so precious and so significant!  Not only does it symbolize what Daniel and I have decided to become, but also my love for Math.  I can't count how many times I have drawn this symbol.
