The craziest two months so far.

So I am back at Point Loma.
I am a senior.
I am engaged.
I am interviewing at medical schools.

Pretty packed two months eh?

Most importantly, I am engaged. Besides being shocked she said yes, I am absolutely ecstatic. After much planning and preparation, I proposed to Julianna. I had asked her if we could go on a date, and told her I'd pick her up at 3:00pm. When it was almost 3:00 I left flowers and note saying I was running late and asked her to meet me at a huge tree on campus (which is where I first told here I loved her). Then when she got to the tree there was a bunch of black and white photos mounted on black matte board. On the outsides of the tree were photos of things that have been significant to each of our journeys separately, such as study abroad, missions trips, summer jobs, etc. As the photos got closer to the center of the tree the photos were of us together and experiences we have shared. Once she had looked at all the photos there was a laptop sitting on the nearby bench that had instructions to watch the video on the desktop. The video was of me cutting, mounting, and organizing all the photos as I am narrating why I had chosen certain photos and the significance of the tree. The last line of the video asked her to turn around because I had a question for her. (You can probably guess what question that was)

The definition of nervous wreck. 




Let the wedding planning begin. 


In the midst of my blog absence, I made my way back to the US from Costa Rica in August. Just in case I haven't said it before, if it is even remotely possible to study abroad during your time in college; DO IT. Such an amazing experience. Below is the photo with my host family the night before we all left.


Costa Rica Recap


Lastly, I have started interviewing for medical schools, actually I am writing this blog from the airport waiting for a flight to my next interview. It is crazy to think I will be living in a new place in less than a year.
