A Royal Wedding, a College Reunion and a Partridge in a Pear Tree

On Friday, we all got to watch a real-life Prince marry his future Princess.  It was beautiful!  My MeeGees (secret group of friends) and I had a sleepover and forgot to fall asleep!  We worked on last minute prep for our 10 year college reunion and before we knew it, it was 2:30 in the morning.  We closed our eyes for an hour and a half and then tuned in with the rest of the world. 

She was beautiful, he was handsome and it was breathtaking.  The End.

After the ceremony, we sprang to action!  It was time for our Reunion.  It was pretty ironic that we spent the morning watching a wedding because we have compared this reunion planning to a bride planning her special day. You put time and money and a year of planning in to such a relatively small period of time. We just knew that we would blink and it would be over. 

It wasn't that quick, but it was certainly a blur.  We ate, we drank, we danced and then we were done!  It was hard for me to not have my 2 suitemates there.  I felt like everyone's cling-on all weekend, especially on Saturday night. All in all though, it was a good weekend.  I am so glad that we put as much work in to it as we did, and thrilled that everyone was so appreciative!

My deep thoughts for this post:

-I've begun to realize that I tend to put quite a polish all of my memories, slowly turning my life expereinces in to things that I don't remember when I'm faced with them in the daylight.  It's a long and involved thought that I'll have to write about when I have more time and am feeling more forthcoming. 

-I wish I let go a little more.  I find myself more and more self conscious these days.  I don't like it. How can I fix that?

-Why do I always have a list of regrets? As things are happening, I begin to think about what could be different. What should I be doing, or wearing, or eating, or drinking instead?  Am I ever really in the moment? Can I get out of my head? Gah.
