Trust Fall Fail

Haha... it's impossible not to laugh at this! 

No Heat??

The predicted high for today: 22
The temperature it was when I got to work today: 18
Felt like: 7
The heat in my building: off

WHY? My boss believes it saves us money... Freezing your employees to death definitely does not do good things for our productivity. Also, putting aside the fact that the pipes could freeze and rupture, it's not cool for you to come in at 11am (2 hours after us) every day and act like it's not an issue. By then the heat has finally warmed the office back up to a decent 70.

NOT COOL!

My rant is over... for now.

This is how cold it felt until about 11am

Help Me I'm Poor

Wedding planning is intense... and by intense I mean freaking expensive! It's also crazy annoying when other people you know have literally 2x your budget and complain about having to spend money.... I just want to be like....

No one wants to hear it. 

T.G.I.F.

Thank Goodness I'm Fabulous!

Happy Friday! As someone who only had Christmas Day and New Years Day off without any PTO I value my weekends deeply! This one is going to be filled with venue shopping, cleaning, finishing edits on my Master's project, and hanging out with my awesome friends and family!

My sister saw this and thought of me :) My mom and unofficially adopted brother Samit call me Queen Shannon.

Major Life Moment!!

Matt Proposed!!! After 6 amazing years boyfriend Matt is now Fiance Matt! He had told me on the 13th that his family was going to Carmines in D.C. and wanted me to go with. So that Saturday I got ready and went to his place. When I got there his roommate Megan called him and told him about a new sign our high school had put up for all of the state championship winners. Since he lives down the street from our old high school we stopped by on our way to dinner. When we go there I immediately commented on how the signs were gone and we should leave (... I was hungry) but he wanted to keep looking. Soooo I did what any normal person would on an empty football field and started playing imaginary football by myself complete with crazy touchdown catches and celebrations. I also kept commenting about the creep in the bleachers reading a book... anyway, Matt eventually got me to half field and proposed in the most appropriate, awesome way ever. With our friends holding up letters which spelled out - Shannon will you marry me?
This is exactly how he asked me to prom during my senior night soccer game in high school. Obvi I said yes immediately and then I said Hell YES when I saw the ring:)

More pictures will be posted... eventually... maybe
