To Whet Your Appetite

Pictures from the Speirs-Yeramyan wedding are coming soon. But here's a sample of what's to come. (Although I'm still waiting for an email from a certain someone in this picture, I've taken his advice to update my blog more often.)

The Right Choice

How do you ever know if you've made the right choice? The right school? The right person to spend the rest of your life with? The right career decision? The right place to eat lunch at?

Maybe it's because I've had a lot of down time in airports and on long flights, but I've been thinking about some decisions that I've made recently. How do I know that they're right? Did I choose the right school? Do I really want this degree? Should I really quit this job that I seem to be fairly good at? Should I really move halfway across the country?

People are telling me it's just because I have cold feet and I'm nervous, but I don't know. In less than 3 months, my entire life as I know it will change. Everyone keeps asking me whether or not I'm excited about it, and I don't know. It's not that I'm not excited, but I haven't exactly been jumping for joy. Maybe I just haven't quite gotten used to the idea of it, but another part of me wonders if I'm making the right decision.

How do I know that this is right?

Prom 2006

To prepare myself for a black tie wedding this weekend in Philly, I ventured out to buy myself a new formal dress a couple of weekends ago. Big mistake. I learned that trying to buy a formal gown in the months of April and May means being bombarded with pastel poofy gowns and fighting with 17 year old girls and their mothers for dressing rooms. It doesn't help when you look 16 and all the salesladies are assuring you that you'll look fabulous for the prom. Too bad that I'm a decade too old for the prom. Fortunately, I walked away with a nice black satin gown that didn't look too prom-y. And this weekend, the Speirs-Yeramyan wedding will be my own personal prom.

Ranked #687

Glenbrook North was listed as the #687 high school in the U.S. by Newsweek magazine. I wonder if we would have been ranked higher had there been a category for "school with the most international fame due to hazing."
