Just keep swimming..... just keep swimming....

The original title of this post was going to be something along the lines of "Keep on truckin'" or "Moving right along"... but in keeping with the theme of Australia I've chose a line from Disney's 'Finding Nemo' to explain this post...

Sorry for the lack of posts.... but I honestly don't have anything to write about.
This past week and a half has been pretty uneventful. With the exception of seeing the newest Batman flick (twice) and working (about 20 hours last week and 9 hours so far this week - which is an incredible amount compared to what they normally give me) life has been pretty boring. I haven't even gone shopping (!), in hopes of not spending any money (not like I really even have money to spend.... kinda spent it all when Bryan was here).

So all in all... this past week has been that of recuperation: physically, emotionally, financially.

I've spent a lot of my time sitting in front of my computer, looking through websites and pictures trying to envision what I want my dream wedding to be like... and I think I've found a few ideas. But most of it, pretty much all the BIG stuff, is going to wait until I get home in December. Basically, the engagement happened, and Bryan and I are stoked, but it'll pretty much seem like we got engaged all over again when I get home... cause that's when all the REAL fun begins (ie: announcements, parties, planning!!).

Next week is the beginning of the next (and final) semester.
I have no classes to attend, but I do have a HUGE paper to pour all of my energy into. I'm to meet up with my advisor next week to go through all the criteria and completion dates and to hopefully muster up some kind of idea of what I'm supposed to write about. :)

Hope everyone is well.
I leave you with a few pictures from the past week...

What I get to look at every single day!!! This is possibly my favorite view of it...


Although... this one's not so bad either :) (THANK YOU BRYAN!)
