A new update? Well the past few days have been eventful. Life changing? At the very least exciting with a scoop of amazing.
Right now im at Dundee college, Nathan has to come in before finals for last minute work. Got to say hi to a few faces I have seen on FB before, Nathans friends and colleauges. So its nice to see in person. And! The weather has still been nice! Its even do I dare say warm. Im excpecting it to suddenly get really cold again like the first two days I was here. But I think I can handle it better this time around. I was wearing shorts yesterday lol
Okay so shall I write about the big news? I had to wait until I officially told my parents, and I love them all the more for supporting me and MY decisions. And mom being happy for me, really makes my engagment more exciting. Ah so where to begin. It wasn't planned lol Well he knew he wanted to ask me and he DID plan, just it happened sooner then he was originally going to, but I perffer it, it was spontanious and came from the heart. He was going to wait until our 3 year anniversary, but things dont always go as planned.
We had came home, was the end of the day, and decided to go outside. Was nightime, but with the stars and a few lights it was dim but nice and not to dark, was really just beautiful. Scotland in itself is beautiful. Outside under the gazebo, things suddenly got very serious, from just being together chilling to, very still. The whole world melted away. This is when I had to concentrate on breathing, I knew and felt something coming. He grabbed my hands then and told me how he loves me, and as he ws talking I had to concentrate on my breaths. He got on one knee! He did and then when he asked!! I couldn't speak. I was speechless! So I kissed him, I just kissed him and shook my head yes. Held eachother the feeling i can't even describe. We went inside and then he got the ring. He had been holding on to this ring since november. Placed it on my finger. I couldnt look at first all I could do is close my eyes and hug him. But the ring is breath taking. It literally shines in the sun light. He knows my taste to, ive let him know early on I love simplicity lol So he gets points for picking out something beautiful.
He shared with me a journal he had started in november for me. His thoughts! How he felt before he picked out the ring, what was on his mind after. Its mine now so I can have and look back on. Im going to use the journal as a engagment diary.
Nothings been planned though, we talked here and there about it but as of now there is no date. All we have said is when we do decide we'll send out a invitation to his side a year before with the season in which we want the wedding. So that they can have time to save up for plane tickets. It will be pricy, so hopefully a year notice will be enough. Im thinking 2014-2015. But things change, and may be prolonged longer. Theres no rush for us. Were still together that doesn't change.
And I know there are a lot of opinions from everyone. And I know everyone has there best intrest at heart. Thank you, please don't be offended if I don't agree or follow your thoughts or advice. No one knows my relationship but me. And I have never been the girl who goes out and party or finds life exciting by going out and being wild or free. To me my life has grown and changed so much, and Nathan has been a partner already. He wants the best for me as I do him and encourages me to do the things in life I want to do and pursue, its just my job to go do it. So there in no restrictions on me "living" I am still just as free as before, and am the happiest I have been. I dont ask for you to agree with what im doing and where im headed and who with, but I do ask you to respect me.
Well things so far have been amazing still. On cloud 9. Went shopping, Nathan had taken me out and I went and bought a birthday gift for Dom jr. Then Nathan took me out to lunch, Chinese buffet!! Ah was so happy lol Then bought me icecream, and I swear the icecream here is so much better. Afterwards we headed out Nathan, the romantic. Took me out on a date, we walked up a hill, past some fields to a junk yard haha. Was actually a really great day. They had this huge pile of potatoes, and we made a game of it. Seeing who could toss it in first. Random objects in the junkyard. Like the tires, pipes ect. Nathan won 5 out of 5 haha yeah I have bad aim. But was a lot of fun, although... i slipped and fell haha.
Going later to go shop for swim wear or at least a good pair of shorts. Going to try for the first time aqua zumba. I can eat here because im working out multiple times a week. Its nice, Nathan had a full class on monday, 20 people and the room was full! He had a new face, his classes are all so lively and the atmosphere is just great, its easy to see why he has so many people come.
But here now, going to chill as I wait for him then were going out for lunch and shopping before class. Excited about the future :)
