This is going to be rather short, but I just thought I'd sneak a tidbit of what I've been up to on this here blog. (This here blog?) Anyways, Yesterday really kicked off the girls weekend. Friday night I studied and Bri was at work, and after a long, tiring week I was passed out by 11pm. How lame, right? Anyways, saturday I woke up and took care of some school things while Bri worked. BUT! When she got home after work at 5 we were soon off to Best Buy to pick up my computer (that I am typing on now!) And then to the mall thats close by to do a little shopping! I figured I needed a few things, and I wanted to treat myself just a bit for all of my hard work so thats what we went to do. Bri also wanted to go shopping to start looking for outfits for her engagement pictures! (She is getting married next summer!!) We didnt realize how late it already was and since the Mall closes at nine we only had about an hour and a half to shop once we got there. Needless to say we spent our whole time in Victoria's Secret, haha. We got measured and tried on a lot of stuff (obviously). We finally found something we liked (oh and don't worry it was all on sale!) but then there wasnt much time to shop for anything else, so we went down to the food court, bought a quick bite to eat, and a drink and headed back home.
Once we got home was where the real party started though! We just turned the music up really loud and had a dance party! We tired out after like six songs, (hahaha) so then we retreated to the living room, sat on the couch and just read girly magazines. It was fun though! It was a good get-ready-for-bed activity. So we went our separate ways and fell asleep.
Now we have both woken up. The love of her life has moved on to Georgia for the rest of the summer, so they said their goodbyes this morning. So once I was up I headed over to her room, and here is where we have been for the past hour. We've been looking at peoples wedding pictures, and engagement pictures, and all of the above! (I love looking at all of these pictures, it just gets me so excited for when my day will come!! And I believe I have already found the perfect candidate to share that with!) Now she just left to shower and get ready, then its my turn, and then we are going back to shop for everything else we wanted! (Ok, realistically, it wont be everything else I wanted.. or I'd be spending thousands of dollars..) Welp, I should probably start doing something to get ready, so I will have another update soon!
Ciao!

So much for keeping up with this..
I really really really meant to keep up with this! After my last blog I travled off to Georgia for my Grandparents 50th wedding anniversary! I also went to see my family, who flew out from California, to surprise my grandparents. [SURPRISE!!] It was a lot of fun, and I loved getting to spend that time with my family. It had been about a year since I had seen everyone last so it was really great getting to catch up! I also got to see my cousin Jessica. Why this makes me so excited is because she is pregnant!! :) She has the cutest baby bumb! Only 9 more weeks to go I think! Crazy how time flies. Last time I saw her she wasn't pregnant at all, it was so crazy actually seeing her like that in person. I am so excited to see little baby Gabriella in just a couple more months. It just makes me want one so bad!! haha. I know I know, don't get ahead of myself. I'm not, I promise! Growing up is just so crazy though.. Like having an adult life is becoming such a reality now!
After spending a wonderful few days with my family (oh and I do want to mention that I was able to skype David in and he got to meet my family!! It was so great! Everyone really liked him! Just cant wait until he can meet everyone in person!!) So anyways, where was I? haha. My mom decided to help me make the drive back to Arkansas so she could meet David in person! And also because I had school the next day and also because she could spend more time with me that way! It was a good drive back after we FINALLY got out of Fayetteville (She wouldn't listen to the GPS so we had to stop by my grandma's so she could look at a map... etc etc. haha). We eventually drove into Searcy right at dinner time, just in time to meet David at an Italian restaurant in town. I was so excited to see him! and so excited that he was officially getting to meet my mom :) Dinner was good, and David paid (what a gentlemen!) then it was back to my house (MY HOUSE!!) to relax and spend some time really getting to talk and for my mom to get to know him better. Needless to say, she really likes him :) Which makes me so happy!!
June 6th- First day of School.. gross. Six hours of class, and then it was home to take my mom to te airport. Although before going to the airport we dropped off my computer at Best Buy, three days before the warranty was up. This comes to the reason why I haven't blogged in so long. I have been computer-less for the past three weeks. So here is a quick recap!
*went to GA
*family suprised Grandparents for 50th Wedding Anniversary
*David got to skype a lot of my family/ got to meet my mom in person!
*School started
*school has been kicking my butt/ I have been doing good, but I have no life
*For the past few weeks I have gone to school at 8am, come home, studied till midnight, went to sleep, and done the same thing the next day..
*two weekends ago David came to visit! He surprised me with a PS2, and Jak & Daxter games!! It was a gift for our four months, and also just because we alays talk about the good ole days playing on the PS2! I am glad I got to see him and spend time with him while he was in town, it was a lot of fun :) (Even though that Saturday I sat on the couch all day and studied while he sat on the other couch and finished the ENTIRE game of Jak 1.. dang!)
*Last weekend, I went to visit David and his family!! :) I got to swim and actually feel like it was actually summer time. I had a really good time, and I liked getting to church and see new acquaintances I have made, and then we got to spend fathers days with his family :) (I also just want to say that I absolutely love his family, they make me feel so welcome! Its all just so perfect!)
*This past week has been my hardest, with three different tests, three assignments due in one of my classes, and two days of validations.. ahh!
*Its friday, friday, gotta get down on friday! My hard work finally paid off and today ended up turning out really great!
As of right now I am doing well in my Professional Nursing class, this class extends into July so I still have a lot of time to catch up on whatever I need to. My other class is only a four weeks class.. which means: ONLY ONE MORE WEEK OF CLASS!!! This class that is about to end is called Pathophysiology.. Its ridiculous. haha. Its really interesting, but its pretty tough, especially while taking another class. I have done pretty well in it. I currently have a C average with two more tests to go. I am planning on studying my butt off this weekend so I can get ahead.. If I get A's on my last two tests I think I will be able to bring it up to a B! (I might even be able to make just B's on my next two tests.. we will see!)
Ok there is so much more I want to talk about!! - David, Nursing, Living in my own place (with Bri of course!) and how I hate that bills are starting to come in and "real life" is starting t hit me! ahh.. But I need to get off of here and finish a few things up. I will be picking up my computer tomorrow so I will add some more updates that have happened over the last few weeks once I get my computer :)
Welp, I love everyone!! If anyone really reads this, I hope you are enjoying it! And I will start having more interesting blogs here soon! haha. God Bless!

I Love David Landon Robinson!!
I just thought everyone should know :)
He makes me so incredibly happy!
He makes me feel good about myself and he tells me I'm beautiful just because. And often. It will just be completely random sometimes. Even when I don't feel like I look good, it makes me feel so much better about myself. Have I mentioned that I haven't worn a lick of makeup in like a month or so!? Not that I wore a whole lot before or wore it all that often but I normally put a little on every day, even if it was just a little foundation to even out my skin tone. But I could really care less now, I think I look just as beautiful without it, if not more so! I just like how he surprises me by telling me how cute I am or how attractive he finds me, even if I am just in sweatpants, hair tied, chillin with no makeup on :)
He makes me smile so much, and he makes me laugh. The guy is hilarious. And he just does these super cute things sometimes that just makes me smile for no reason! Like little faces he makes, or things he says. Or when he gets embarrassed: its so adorable. haha. Which my saying that may make him feel embarrassed but it just makes me smile so big seeing his cheeks get all red and he smiles and tried to hide his face. Ha, idk that may sound weird but I think its precious! :D I just cant stop smiling sometimes when I am talking to him or just thinking about him.. or walking down the halls of his house and looking at all of his baby pictures on the walls, or even pictures of him in high school. He just makes me smile!
He also helps me out with whatever, whenever I need it. Like moving for example, he loaded up my jeep for me when I was moving out of the dorm. He helped me with my validations for nursing, by helping me practice for class. He also just helps me calm down and relax whenever I get super stressed out. He also just helps me be an overall better person and a better Christian. I had never had anyone just pray for me like he has. Praying with David is one of the most amazing things. Sometimes I wish we did it even more than we do. I know we each pray for each other separately but I love when we pray in the midst of each other.
He accepts me for who I am. Weather it be accepting me for how I look or act or for mistakes I have made in the past. He accepts me for all the big and little things. He honestly probably knows more about me than anyone else does, and he is still right by my side. I don't know what more I could ask of him than just basically accepting me or who I am, and loving me for who I am. So many people today get to know someone at a deeper level and begin to judge and turn away from them. I just think thats the saddest thing! Everyone has a past and makes mistakes and has faults, but that shouldn't give us reason to judge them. God made us to love each other.. for our imperfections. I guess I cannot speak for him, but I would love to think that David loves me for my imperfections, and I think he really does.
David also just takes care of me. By doing all of the above and more. He takes care of me in so many different ways. By being a friend, by being a teammate, by being an outlet, by being a brother in Christ, by just being himself, and by being even more.
Being with him, getting to know him, growing closer to him over these past several months has really opened my eyes to so much. It has also made me realize that real relationships take work. We don't always agree on everything and by accident we upset each other, and we get bothered by the pasts we have. But we communicate. Lord knows that I have trouble communicating, I am not sure why it is so hard for me to just say how I feel, or to even form it into words, but it takes a lot longer for me to understand myself than it does for other people. But communication is one of the most important things, if not the most important aspect in a relationship. We talk about everything, and we resolve our issues. Sometimes we let problems go on for a little too long but we still finally get it out in the open and solve the issue. Its not good to let things go unsaid and fester inside of you. No matter how you think the other person will react you need to talk about what is bothering you. and maybe I should take my own advice sometimes! haha. I just have issues about not wanting to upset anyone, especially David.
I just feel like we are really good together. We can talk about anything, we listen to each other, and are there for each other. We also put God first in our relationship, and God is present in our relationship. I know we have many more things to learn but I think we have an amazingly good start to what I hope to be a never ending life together.
Ok, I have probably said too much, haha. I haven't really been this completely open to just anyone, especially not online. But I don't care what people think. David and I may not have been together extremely long but I feel like when you know you just know, right!? Ha, idk, but I just want the world to know how I feel, and how happy I am. God has answered so many of my prayers by giving David to me. He has blessed me in so many ways. and I hope he continues to be a blessing in my life.

Eight hours and twenty minutes later..
I am finally at my grandparents house in Georgia! I finally was completely out of town by 1020, I got a little behind because I had a few errands to run before leaving town. This was the first time I have ever driven this distance completely alone. Sure I have driven this long before, but with other people in the car. My lil baby jeep served me well today though. I am proud of little Ollie! haha. (Its short for Olive, because Laneija thinks it looks like an olive). Anyways, surprisingly the time went by really fast. One hour that went by real fast was the hour I got to talk to David :) He called me on his lunch break and we got to talk. It was really good, I miss talking to him! and I just miss him! haha. Wish he could have been able to make the trip with me, but he will meet everyone eventually, I am sure of it! It also may have helped that I drove in daylight the whole time; making the trip not seem so long because it didn't feel late. Anyways, I just wanted to let everyone know that I made it safely :)
I wish there was something to do however. Although I am pretty tired. I am just finishing this up, and texting David while he is at the gym getting swole.. haha. Its impressive to me how much he can do, and I wont lie, I like his muscles lol. But I know he likes working out, and I am glad that he does it for him and not for anyone else. I wish I had his determination sometimes. I also wish I wasn't so lazy.. but thats a story for another day. I think its off to the couch to relax and watch some tv!
Bienvenidos a Georgia!
