At the end of this week....

....major updates are in store! I'm hoping by Friday (my graduation day!) I will know more about financial aid and be able to give a definitive answer on what school I'm going to and announce my internship/housing/travel plans. Woot woot!

Catie & Will: Year One

For our one year anniversary, Will and I re-created our first date and had the same pizza at The Pie (his half: spicy Italian sausage, my half: olives and cilantro). Afterwards, we went to the Hotel Monaco and had caramelized pineapple upside down cake for dessert at Bambara, followed by martinis at The Red Door. Because all of this happened before 8 pm and we wanted his dad to be in bed when we got back (HA!) we drove up in the avenues and walked over to the lookout by the capitol building. While we were there on a bench overlooking the city, we took turns reading aloud from the personalized, pirate-themed romance novel I got him since he likes to make fun of my romance novels haha.

Captain William Hanlon and Lady Catie are having an excellent adventure - and the book is great too.

Clueless.

Ugh, I hate how everything regarding my future is so up in the air right now.
Grad school: I have to decide where I'm going by April 15 more or less. I've heard from everyone but Boston U (top choice, of course) and they can't give me a date by which I'll know if I'm in or not. WHY? No clue.
Summer Internship: I had one all set up and ready to go, prime location, housing in the works. Then I got a call saying the center that hired me is closing for year. They are trying to help me find something else, but it isn't what I want. All because the center is closing for a year...WHY? No clue.
New internships: I've been applying for them daily. It narrows your choices when you have to apply for paid ones, but paid is necessary at this point in the game. I have only heard back from one so far (crap location)....WHY? No clue.

THIS CLUELESSNESS NEEDS TO STOP. NOW. (Sorry about the rant.)

*Side note: Kosta Koufos ate lunch with our family on Easter Sunday haha... not expecting that.

I want a gibbon.

New favorite couples pastime: nature documentaries. The nature documentary Will and I watched tonight about the fascinating combination of Asian and Australian wildlife on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia only strengthened my desire to have a gibbon. I could steal the gibbon from Hogle Zoo...this particular gibbon often carries around a stuffed monkey like a baby and it is the cutest thing I've ever seen (besides my boyfriend of course). Look how adorable they are! I want. Learn more about gibbons here!
