Because nothing's certain, it's more accurate for me to say what I hope to do after graduation...
More than anything else, I would love to work for a newspaper or a local magazine writing about health-related topics. The journalism job market is tough right now and even tougher if you are looking to specialize. For that reason, I would also be happy with any job that allows me to write. That's one reason why I love having my blog — I still get to write about things I'm passionate about, even if it's on the side.
Worst comes to worst, I'll try to find a non-journalism job while I continue my job search. I know the right thing will come along at the right time... -
Absolutely! Before getting engaged, Dan and I had many, many conversations about what our life would look like after getting married. We considered budgets, including how to be financially independent. Before getting married, one of the most important things we did was attend counseling sessions and discuss the issues that were brought up. Ultimately, these discussions made us even more confident in our union.
I also believe that every couple has different, unique things to consider before getting married - and it's definitely not something that should be entered casually or without preparation. -
I love stuffing — I just have to double check that it's vegetarian! This year, I didn't have enough time to make my own from scratch, so I made an easy vegan box mix.

We dated for nine months before we got engaged. When you know, you know!

That makes it sounds pretty dramatic, doesn't it? I swear it's not really that bad. Two of the jobs are directly related to the school newspaper and another is with a professor on campus. The fourth one is just some freelance work that I do.
They are all pretty limited hours, so the sum isn't really that much. Plus, they all provide me with really good experience that will be helpful when I'm faced with finding a "real job" next year! -
Great question! Maintaining a budget was definitely at the forefront of our minds while planning the wedding. Our parents were wonderful enough to contribute a generous amount to our wedding fund, but it was still below the average wedding cost. To deal with this, Dan and I basically prioritized what was important to splurge on and what we could save on.
For example, we were willing to spend more on our photographer, because we knew the pictures would be important to us throughout our lives. However, we were able to save on invitations, accessories and flower arrangements — sunflowers are big, so you don't need that many to make a statement!
Finally, we saved a lot by DIY-ing. My favorite DIY project were the favors. Not only were they popular, but really inexpensive in the grand scheme of things! -
Haha, that's a good question! There have been a few days since the wedding that I've gone a little stir-crazy and needed something to do. Fortunately, school is starting up next week and I know that will keep me busy.
I planned a wedding for seven months of my life. I just lived a regular life for another 20 years, so it isn't a huge deal to transition back. Right now, I'm just enjoying looking up races, planning things with friends and figuring out what I'm going to do with my life when I graduate. (eek!) -
We certainly have, but let me explain.
For the first eight or so months of our relationship, Dan and I prided ourselves on never having had an argument. However, since then we've learned that arguments don't always have to be bad things.
Throughout our engagement, we had arguments on little things such as the guest list and reception menu. We've also had disputes as we've gotten used to living together. However, we are both VERY careful about not taking any low blows. Sometimes we take a step back to calm down, but we never go to sleep angry. That way, we are able to work through our disputes without having them blow up later! -
I believe that choosing whether or not to be sexually active is a very important, personal decision for everyone to make. That being said, for his privacy, this is one question I would prefer not to answer.

All year long! It's been this way for as long as I can remember!
