So today is mine and Darren's two year anniversary. Boy, was it the most exciting moment of my life. The entire day was absolutely perfect; I wouldn't change a thing.
This morning I was too excited that I couldn't sleep. I didn't start getting ready until he texted me telling me e was on his way. I had to make sure I looked perfect, and I did :) He finally got here and I just ran into his arms. I didn't want to leave them. Then I realized that he had cupcakes with him. He knows I love them so it was a great beginning. He walked up to North Campus (the pretty part of campus) and went through the Founder's Garden. It was very pretty. We got there before they started setting up for a wedding. Of course, I started thinking about the day when we will and I get even more excited. I want it to happen.
By then it was around lunchtime so we went to downtown to a local pizza joint called Transmetropolitan. I've been there many times before and this was his first time. The pizza, as always, is awesome. We then went to the botanical gardens nearby my school. They were GORGEOUS!!! It was so pretty and peaceful, I could have stayed there forever. We found a secluded place to ourselves surrounded by many plants. There was a bench there. We sat there and took some pictures. He then got up, and I followed. He then got down on his knee, pulled out a ring, and asked if I would wait for him. I was so surprised, I couldn't believe it. I said yes as he slid it on my finger. It was the best moment of my life.When we finished at the garden, we went to dinner at Outback. That was also an awesome place and we really enjoyed being there.
Overall, it was an amazing day. I wouldn't have changed one single thing that happened. Maybe if he was able to stay longer, but I enjoyed the time we had together. It was an anniversary worth remembering, and I will forever.

Come On Already!!
There hasn't been much to post in the past month, but I do have some news. He has to go through two more interviews before he gets his assignment, so we will know sometime in November. I'm ready to know. I just want to know already. On a positive note, his brother comes home in a couple of weeks. I remember when he left and it really didn't seem that long ago. Hopefully that will be the same for us.
Our anniversary is tomorrow and he is coming to school to visit. This will be the last time he comes to Athens but I'm ok with that. Just as long as I get him tomorrow I am happy. I won't be able to see him in November but hopefully I'll see him in December. I will post tomorrow night about our date.
