Can you all believe that in 7 days it will be Christmas!! These last 4 months have flown by! Before I get all emotional over the Christmas season I have some BIG news! I have decided to go to Cosmetology school! I am very excited for this new adventure! I will be starting on January 11, 2010. The program is just shy of 10 months long and I will be graduating at the end of September. To make my Big news even Bigger is to tell you about the scholarship I received. I wrote an essay about why I wanted to become a Cosmetologist and how would the scholarship money help me. Well with the help of my mom we put together a great essay and I got the full amount of $5000! It's exciting to think that this time next year both Dustin and I will have graduated and be doing what we love!
For those of you who don't know Dustin and I decided to stay in Orlando for Christmas. I have mixed emotions about it. Although I happy to experience what Christmas will be like in Orlando, I am very sad to not be with my family. I have never not been with them. The thought of not waking up early with Meghan and looking into our stockings, then waking everyone else up is heartbreaking. Thank god we have little thing known as Skype! Dustin and I have been getting packages in the mail all week! Underneath the tree is getting full! I am loving it! One thing to look forward to is, Tammy, Dustin's mom will be here to celebrate with us! Very bittersweet for me, sometimes I get emotional over a Christmas song on the radio, unless I hear Feliz Navidad, then I just bust out laughing! Some of you should know why:) It's been hard for Dustin and I to even realize that it's December! The weather has been very nice. We have the AC on AGAIN! Yesterday we were able to open up the apartment and they are talking about a very nice cool down for the next week. Hopefully it's chilly enough that it can remind us a little bit of Iowa.
I would like to end by wishing everyone a Merry Christmas! We love you all and miss you terribly! See you in the new year!!
