Finally, a post...

I promise once school is over with for the semester I will come back and update for once.

I have noticed something that is really irritating....I am a 20 year old bride-to-be. Therefore, I am "too young" to be married.

Please people, if you're going to judge me, atleast don't lump me in with the "too young" category. I mean honestly, I agree that a lot of people getting married young aren't ready. But doesn't the same go for a lot of 30 year olds getting married? I have a few friends who are engaged at my age, and guess what? They seem to be in amazing relationships and are well-prepared for married life. So don't judge them either.

Just because I am a "young bride" doesn't mean I 'm not ready. I understand that a wedding isn't all about "my pretty princess day". I'm not going crazy over the white dress and shoes and hair and flowers and bridesmaids and OMG the cake and tuxes and colors and it's all gonna be about ME ME ME and my OH SO SPECIAL DAY!!!!

No. I understand, and agree, that a wedding isn't about a wedding at all - it's about a marriage. It's about trust and commitment and love. About compromise and being able to work things out. I am not under any false impressions that after we get married it will be "happily ever after" with no work at all. I understand that. I know we will have to work at our marriage every. single. day. I know we will have problems and arguments. We already do. We are normal. But we fix our problems and we leave arguments knowing that everything is okay. We compromise and make the argument constructive - we learn from it. We have seperate lives outside of eachother.


So stop telling me that I will be divorced before I finish grad school. Stop telling me that I don't know what I am doing. Because I DO know what I am doing.
