Reminiscing on 2011.
I think overall, it was a great year for me. It went by fast, and I feel like it was a blur. But I got to see Frank a lot more than I did in 2011, which makes for a happy Annie. We had so many adventures, much too much to list. Frank got deployed, and I made so many good friends this year. I made the dean’s list.
Although 2011 treated me well, I’m ready to see what 2012 has in store...
I am jealous of everyone who gets a real kiss...
But I get a skype kiss and this makes me happy.
Frank and I spoke from two different years. [: I think that’s pretty funny to say and think about.
Last rant for 2011.
This isn’t for anyone on here. I’m just annoyed.
If you don’t like me, that’s fine. You don’t have to like me. I can handle it because I’m a big girl. But If you have a problem with me, stop pulling all this passive aggressive crap on facebook or the internet and confront me one on one.
People act so big and mighty in front of their computers, but they have no...

I ordered my books, updated my CV, got new shoes.
I think it’s been a productive last few days of 2011. And my books only cost about $250 all together. What an accomplishment.

Attempting to keep my options very open for that year off I will have in between nursing and completing my bachelors.
So far, I have on my possible to-do list:
-Double major. Currently I major in human biology and minor in psychology. But since I have that extra year, I am considering on doubling on psychology, and I’d be done with that degree the fall after I graduate.
-Volunteer at the...
Anonymous asked: Annie, your relationship with Frank is like picture perfect..I swear haha. It gives me so much hope! My boyfriend just recently joined the Army and he's about to leave for basic training here in a few months. I don't know how I am going to handle it. We went to college together last semester and I live in his dorm ha, and now i still get to see him everyday. How do you cope with this...
Why do we do it?
We put ourselves out there, hoping someone will take us for all that we are and all that we aren’t. No matter how many times we have been hurt, we pray for that one person who will always be there for us and who would never hurt us. No matter how jaded we are, we always have a weak string of hope of someone to prove us wrong.
So why do we keep putting ourselves through the risk of getting...
Crazy dream.
Seriously, that dream involved all these crazy elements. I was at school, and I ended up going through a village, and I parked on top of a hill at night overlooking the city. I lost my purse and saw myself on this TV thing, except I look like I’m 25 and a very pretty version of myself. I saw Ryan Dunn in my dream. I also dreamed of having like a sleep over at a place that looked like my...

Another day down.
The week before he deployed, I was anxious, sad, and fearful of what the future might bring us. My thoughts were filled with what could happen during deployment and what could happen after. The stories of past military girlfriends, wives, and fiancees, made me fear for the worst.
The first week of deployment, my phone was permanently attached to my hand, I obsessed with checking facebook, and I...

…And that moment was meeting you.
Recap on a fun-filled day.
Woke up before the butt-crack of dawn to go after Christmas shopping.
Bought a toaster oven and a jacket for over 60% off (such a good deal.)
Dropped my mom off at church and talked to my lovey for a bit until we fell asleep on skype.
Went on a good walk with Candice and Teddy.
Had an adventure with our friend Rachel, which consisted of playing with her baby niece, puppy, kitties, eating...

Ugh, swoooon.
I don't understand this.
Not too long ago, my friend showed me a website where you can put college gossip up, and basically tear them down. It’s rather disgusting. I don’t understand why someone would go out of their way to post nasty things about someone they dislike. Shouldn’t you be putting your energy towards something more productive?
Do you feel better after tearing someone apart? Does it make you...
Frank's grandma wrote about me in a letter.
She said I’m pretty, and I have a pretty smile, annnd that I’m a keeper. [:

Sometimes I envy people that get to have that big...
I really wish I could have that sometimes. Frank’s family gets to have that, and to be honest, part of me longs for that so much.
But I consider myself lucky. I’m warm, I have people that love me, and I live a life full of laughter and happiness. And that’s all I need.
Merry Christmas, everyone.
Happy Christmas Eve to everyone.
I just came from the in-laws, and now I officially have one gift to open on Christmas morning! Yay! I always run out of presents to open on Christmas because everyone wants me to open it in front of them. Mama Rose really loved the snowman I made her which you will see later, and we made Christmas quiches. Which was yummy.
Now to spend Christmas with Mama. Woo. Be safe everyone.
Me: I wanna be reunited already.
Frank: Me too. I'll catch a ride with Santa.
Literally, all I want for Christmas is to be with this guy right here. Nothing makes me happier than just to cuddle by the Christmas tree, eating good food, and sharing a bottle of sparkling apple cider.
The holidays are rough to be away from the one you love. My heart is missing him especially tonight.

In terms of my GPA that is. [: 3.6 GPA whoot! [:
Not too shabby. [:
