Get Your Weight Ur!!!

Girls' Weekend ---Get Your Weight ur! (inside joke...sorry you're not included)

Well on Monday I came back from a fabulous girls' weekend in Atlanta! My friend Christina flew with me to ATL to see our friend Himee for her birthday! We had a blast and it so reminded me of being back in college. Man, I miss those days. I've only been to Atlanta once and I was stuck in the airport the entire time. This time was great because I got to see all of downtown, party at Russell Simmons' club and visit the KU bar where Himee works. I highly recommend Diggers Bar & Grill in North Sandy Springs, Georgia! Yummy! Rock chalk! We also went and visited a comedy show, but it wasn't too funny. I feel like maybe I should move to ATL, especially since Christina is leaving me this May to relocated there. =( I'll miss her dearly, but I know she needs to go there. On the bright side I'll have two people to visit in Atlanta when I go next time.

Wedding Crap

Since Himee is my maid of honor and Christina is a bridesmaid, I was able to formally ask them to be in the wedding. I made little bookmarks for them (yes, I do teach English and want to promote literacy, I'm a nerd like that). The bookmarks have a picture of me and them and say "books and friends should be good, but few. / Will you stand by my side as I become Murad's bride? / Please be my bridesmaid /MOH. aw + mc / 3.21.2009 / dallas, texas" For the others, I mailed theirs off that weekend. Murad gave Abby her flower girl bookmark last weekend too. Everyone said YES! I have such awesome friends!

Last night Murad and I went for the food tasting for our wedding. Can I say yummy? I'm so excited for the food at our wedding. I think that's one of the most important things about the wedding. I hate going to weddings where the food is crappy and so does Murad. The location, food & drinks were our biggest concerns and so far we've got the first two covered. Luckily, the caterer we're using is dirt cheap. Since my parents are paying for that and other stuff, we can use our money wisely. I'm a big fan of using money wisely, and I refuse to spend a fortune on this ONE day in our marriage. Granted, it is one of the more important days, but still.

Ross and the Movies

After our tasting we went to Ross and bought some clothes. We spent less than $200 and got some shirts, he got pants and a pair of shoes, and I got three pairs of shoes. Everything we got was name brand...Perry Ellis, Steve Madden, IZOD, etc. Man, I love Ross!

Then we proceeded to the mall to watch a movie. We saw 10,000 B.C. It was a great movie. We were there rather late at night and the couple behind us brought their child! The kid couldn't have been over six years old. The movie let out at midnight. Way past any child under the age of six's bedtime! Oh well, what can you do.

School

Well this time I'm griping about my school. I have an assignment due on Sunday and a mid-term to take this weekend. I thought getting my master's online would be easier than a classroom, but i just procrastinate even more, which is why I wrote this long ass blog entry instead of studying!
