Back to school

Now that school has started and the craziness is past, it feels like we have so much time! (ironically enough) so here's an update on recent events.
The wedding, of course. (more photos on Lydia's facebook profile!)


The honeymoon was tons of fun (and food--literally!). We came back without swine flu or sunburn, so all is well :)
When we went down to Las Vegas last week for the Nevada star ball, my partner and I made second place in our category for both standard and smooth!! That was quite the exciting event...
Back to school season has brought some good and not so good changes:
Andrew and I both got into all the dance classes we wanted! ( Gold II Standard and latin for me, Gold Bar Standard for Andrew-- and we're both taking a smooth class with our respective partners.
AND...
I MADE BACKUP TEAM!!!! So now Andrew and I are waking up mon/wed/fri together and going to team at 7 am... It's hard to believe that I've gotten this far... I feel like now I need to work extra hard and prove that I deserve the spot I've received. It's pretty overwhelming to all of a sudden be put into classes and team where essentially everyone is better than me, but at the same time it's really invigorating: I like a good challenge :)
The bad part of back to schoool is that we don't get home till late... but hey, we have each other forever so who am I to complain!
So far we're both on schedule in school.. I'm actually already ahead in my reading! Wednesday I will be finishing up my project for my application to the communications program... a really nice girl in the comms department agreed to let me into the lab that morning so I can fix the sound errors... and then I'll be submitting my folder and putting my destiny in the hands of the admissions committee.... I honestly have no idea what to do if I don't make it! Wish me luck...
Andrew has decided to retake Econ 110 (enough said--he is a courageous man indeed).
And finallly, our apartment is becoming a home. I love cooking in our own kitchen and waking up in the morning and coming home to our own home.
