Andrea Peterson's tumblr- a way to share my world of random factoids with you!
I'm 23, recently married to someone wonderful, and I live in New Mexico. I love posting random stuff I find online. That means talking about celebrity gossip, Star Wars, politics, men I find attractive, and other interesting how-tos or blurbs about my life.
Also, I've got an official website, check it out: http://web.me.com/andrea_ellen/
I didn’t need cheering up (we celebrated him), and this isn’t the first time I’ve seen it. But it’s the first time I’ve seen it since getting Beatles Rock Band and now know that Paul is saying “Don’t blame me, man, I only have 10 children,” so it’s nice to finally see him doing that.
This week, my hatred for school feels amplified. Anything minor (such as formatting or capitalizing “Internet”) sets me off. It will be over soon. I’ll take a much-needed break. And once again, I’ll fall in love with Oregon because I associate it with having a good time. So when I move there and get a job, I’ll be highly disappointed. Oh well. Just ruminating, I suppose… avoiding more work. =(
“And I was thinking about the way you are in life, and when you’re guys you goof around a lot, but you don’t actually sit down and say, ‘John, let me just tell you: I think you’re a terrific person, I think you’re a marvelous musician, and I really love you.’”
I once thought that high school graduation really meant something. I thought that walking the line for my Bachelor’s degree would be even more momentous. But to be honest, nothing has lived up to the joy I’ve experienced since being married.
I’m the kind of person who enjoys a little drama, but certainly not in my own life. And I did enjoy the ups and downs (in retrospect) of dating there for a little while. But when Joe asked me to marry him, I knew that this was what I wanted for my life. Joe makes me genuinely happy and beyond that, we have fun and enjoy sharing parts of our lives that others may not get.
Our wedding was amazing, as it incorporated four things I love: friends, family, dancing, and alcohol. It has proven to be a sign of what our life would be like together, as we enjoy all four. I adore his family and he fits right in with my friends. We met in a dance class, and Joe and I love finding a new beer or wine to try out.
“Marriage changed my life for the better” is what Plinky named this particular prompt. But let’s just make one thing clear: marriage didn’t change anything, except that we’ve settled in to a cozy lifestyle with one another. Before our wedding, we were the same people. But being married, allowing Joe to define me as a person (at least partially)? That has changed my life, because what he does reflects upon me, and in most cases, those reflections are all positive.
Well I haven’t written in a while, but since I last wrote I’ve gotten to feeling a lot better about my ability to lead the group. I was probably just imagining things being worse than they were,…
I’ve not been feeling like myself lately, and also have felt like I can’t be myself even if I understood what that was. Over the past weeks, I feel like I can’t get anything right. And sure,…
While Model UN and the Beatles have very little to do with one another, both have taken over my life for the last week or two. And both are really big on peace, which is my state right now……
Alright, well, for those of you worried, I did make it back to NM. We had an absolutely wonderful time in the Redwoods and in the wine country area with giraffes! But that time is long since…
