I'm Engaged!

This weekend had just been such a whirlwind that I could not even fathom how I was able to get through it breathing as normal. How can I focus on my Finals this week when 80% of the time, I am just staring at this beautiful piece of jewelry, realizing and absorbing that my life is about to change quicker than I can even realize it.

I got engaged yesterday, and it was one of the most unsuspecting moments in my life. When it happened, the whole world stopped. Seriously. Words fail me now, and I can't even explain best how the whole "experience" fell into place and felt so right, both for David and I. It was very honest and very beautiful.

Again, I'll skip the gazillion details, but it involved a very nice homecooked 3-course Filet Mignon dinner, The Alchemist, the sunset, the perfect timing, the perfect spot, lots of strength and a 14 year-old bottle of Dom Perignon.

I immediately emailed my family and my very close friends, and it was a very good feeling to hear back how happy and excited they are of the news. Some of them called me screaming, and some even in tears. I was also able to talk to my... err... future mother-in-law (woah, did that sound right?) and she is very psyched and told me about how she knew all along - and that my parents knew all along too!

Sorry but I can't help but be cheesy now. But yeah, I guess this is it. David is The One.





David got down on one knee with this. It's perfect. He is so good at taking notes during my girl talks! :)

And now the wedding planning officially begins.
