Now that it is December, the media has begun to impress upon the urgencies of completing our Christmas shopping. Radio stations, malls, movies, tv etc. have commenced the continual Christmas music, Seasonal Greetings and reminders of how many shopping days remain... dun dun dun
I went to the mall today and shopped for nearly 3 hours... but to no avail! It seems that our material-loving world is gaining nothing by its over produce of objects, and to top it all off, as the prices grow, the quality diminishes! Our world is becoming trash, and they are forcing us to pay extra for it!
Once in a while, however, you are fortunate to formulate a special gift idea in your mind... but once you begin making it happen you discover that there is a flaw in your plans... it is nearly impossible to create something wonderful out of a trash-world. Oh the irony...
~why change something that was already so good?~

Hey Lauren!
I just wanted to offer you a couple of words of encouragement.
First of all, I am so happy for you and Eric and wish both of you all the best. I know you'll make each other happy.
Second of all, welcome to being a new couple at concordia! :> Coming from someone who once was half of the 'new cute couple at school that everyone had to go AWWW at', trust me, as much as its kind of annoying now, it doesn't last forever (although it might last for a few weeks...)
People will get over it and while they will still be happy for you, you won't as many 'aaawws..' and 'they're so cute' looks as you did when you first started dating. Unless you guys enjoy that kind of thing... in which I'm sure some people will be happy to oblige to it for a longer period of time...!
Anyways. Just thought I'd let you know that you're not the only one who's gone through this before. As much as concordia can feel like extended highschool sometimes, when it comes right down to it your friends are just happy for you and mean well.
See ya on the flip side!
Amber
I love that on November 1st all of the halloween decorations go away and i begin to think that Christmas is at the end of november...have they forgotten why we celebrate...really i can barely take Christmas 3 weeks b4...let alone 8
Wow. Amber is so right. I wish someone would have said that to me last year! How is it that Concordia is just like extended high school?
Hmm...I had something different to say, but Amber distracted me.
Oh yeah!
WHHHHHHYYYY change something that's already so good? I learned the hard way, but you're right!
And I love you.
Sorry about the distraction...
