Location, Location, Location

Before I start, you should all know that most of today's post doesn't have anything to do with my wedding, or any wedding for that matter.

But since I made this blog primarily about weddings, I'll start there.  Last weekend, the fiance and I traveled to Anderson Gardens in Rockford, IL (where we have been thinking about holding the ceremony and reception) and it was stunning - even in the middle of October.  I loved it so much that I do not have to look at any other locations - I have to get married there. 
Reasons to love Anderson Gardens:  natural beauty, wedding coordinator, close to both our families, no need for much decoration, delicious food, great for small and intimate weddings.
Downsides:  I dropped my camera when we got there and broke it, soo no pictures until next Spring when it opens back up.

Now on to the real subject I want to talk about today... waiting.
I am at the point in my life that there really is nothing left for me to achieve where I am at (i.e. in college) and I have done all the growing I expect to do as a college student.  While I think it is great that I am ready to move on and get out in the real world and start working (and paying off my student loans), I am about 7 months early. 
"What does this mean exactly?" you might be asking yourself.  Well, baby birds, it means that for the next 7 months I'm just biding my time and waiting to start the next chapter in my life.  Kind of depressing?  Absolutely.

I loved being in college (for the most part) and I feel that I have grown so much, but the only growing I will probably do in the next 7 months is learning the fine art of resume writing and interviewing. 

Just hand me that degree, and set me free.  I'm ready to take on the real world!
