Hello

Hello blog,
The last time I posted on here was in June of 2012. I was 23 years old then. I recently found this old blog of mine and have been reading all the old posts I made a long time ago. I used to blog everything back then. I wasn't sure if I would actually be able to log into my blog here as it has been 5 years since I last logged onto my account but it actually worked! The reason I stopped blogging was because I was posting everything I blogged about in video form onto my many YouTube channels. I was more interested in doing the videos then typing the blog posts so I ended up stopping. Now that I have found my old blog again I decided I would make a post. And who knows.. maybe I will continue to post. I really enjoy reading the previous entries I've made. I also really do enjoy making blog posts because it allows me to think about life and process my thoughts. I'm not sure why I ever stopped. Sometimes things just get old after a while I guess.
So much has changed since my last post 5 years ago. The biggest changes have been me moving out of my parents house and now most recently me getting engaged. I also now work at a limousine company full time and no longer at AMC Theaters. Change is really hard for me but I'm happy with where my life is right now.
The main thing going on in my life right now is wedding planning. Coming from someone who is a master planner I am having the hardest time with this wedding planning stuff. Not only is it SUPER expensive but there are so many things to worry about. So many little details to think about and remember. Luckily I have put together a wedding binder with all the information I could ever need to know about all the services we are using. It is very helpful! Without my binder I would be lost in a sea of paperwork. I'm sure once the actual wedding day comes along it will all be very beautiful but until then I am trapped and tangled in a web of stress. The main thing that stresses me out is the money of course because I have no idea how we're going to pay for everything. We literally have a $5,000 total running right now and we still have a huge list of things we haven't even found out the price on yet like all the decorations for the tables/hall, Clarks wedding ring, alterations and so many other things. On top of all this my best friend Chandra is also getting married this July and I am in her wedding as a bridesmaid. I don't even want to talk about that. This is supposed to be a happy time for both of us but it is more stressful then happy because I don't know how I am going to afford all this. We're already having trouble affording our own wedding let alone having to afford for me to be in some one elses wedding at the same time. The dress, shoes, hair/makeup, bachelorette party, bridal shower gift! It all adds up in the end and can become quite expensive.


Until next time,
Holly
