I'm feeling really overwhelmed with everything going on right now and want to talk about all of my upcoming events! I am going to map it out so that I can figure it out a little bit better.
April 18-22: pre-finals week
I have to write a 2-page paper by Monday, a 5-page paper by Tuesday, a 7-page paper by Thursday, increments of my final for my editing class, and my final for my professional considerations class. I know I really should be doing homework right now, but I can't wrap my head around it until I've got my schedule made. I also have class every morning and work every afternoon until at least 5:30.
April 22 or 23: my endowment
I'm going to the temple for the first time to take out my endowments! I am a little nervous about wearing garments and what all will happen inside of the temple, since I have no idea what goes on inside. I'm not worried about the commitment, I'm just nervous about the changes it will make to my life. . . I have a hard time with change. I need to make my appointment tomorrow so I can invite my grandparents and plan for it.
April 23: Nina's baby shower
I am throwing a baby shower for my best friend Nina! I'm super excited about it, and I'm sure it'll look nice and be fun, but I am a little worried about planning everything and trying to take it all on by myself. I guess I'm most worried about this because I know that I'm probably going to have to do most of the preparations the day of the shower, and my in-laws will be in town, so my house will also have to be presentable. All I really need to worry about is food, decorations, and a present.
April 25-27: finals/last days at Adventure Time
I need to take finals this week on Critical Intro to Lit, British Lit, Shakespeare, and Editing. These will all be done in the mornings, and these are also my last few days of work at the preschool! I'm going to try and get lesson plans ready for the substitute teachers, and I need to come to terms with the fact that the babies I've worked with since August are not going to be mine anymore! I feel so guilty about leaving them, but this is where my life is heading right now, and there's nothing else I can really do about that. I'm just hoping I can get all of the plans written out and ready for subs so that my kiddos will have a sense of continuity.
Sometime before April 28: dress shopping
I need to find a cute white dress for pictures at the Bountiful Temple on April 28 after our sealing! I want to check out the cute boutiques around Provo, but I need to delegate time for it. If I can get most of my papers done soon, I can try to find my dress sometime this week, but I'm still not wearing garments yet and am not totally sure about how my clothes need to fit.
April 28: my sealing/family pictures/packing
I still have to figure out what kind of hair I'm going to try to pull off for the big day! This is also our last day before our trip, so we need to get all of our things together for California and get Mollie's things together for her stay in Manila at Nina's parents' ranch. I know she's going to love it there, but I feel so bad about leaving her while I go to Hawaii. . . Maybe it's just me, but I feel like she knows it's coming.
April 29-May 16: roadtrip
We will be all over the place on the BMW!
May 17-May 31: moving back to the basement
Yay for unpacking, packing, laundry, and trying to soak up our last few days together.
June 8: Hawaii
So, I'm sure there are more things that need to be on here, but I'm sure I need to be getting busy now with homework! Maybe after all of the craziness, I will put some pictures up from our trip! I hope!
