My ring!!!

Last night Landon proposed :) We were in the basement hanging out and he asked me if I wanted to see something. I said sure what is it, and he said I had to guess. So I asked him for hints and after he gave me like 4 hints, I finally guessed, "is it a ring?" he said maybe,  I said "is it my ring?" he said maybe, and then he asked me if I wanted to see it, and I said "can I have it?" And he began laughing and said that I wasn't allowed to have it until December, but I could see it if I wanted to, just so I could know that he bought me one....So I said sure, let me see it....although I was a little bummed because I was expecting a proposal. So he went and got something out from under his bed, it was in a bag, and then a box, and then another box....And then his breathing became very shaky. I smiled as he gave me the opened box, and all I could say is "It's very pretty", but I didn't wanna look at it too much cause I would want it so much more. Then he asked me if I wanted it, and I just laughed and said "of course I do!" and he started laughing, and then about 5 minutes later, he looked at me and asked if I would marry him.....And I started squealing and laughing and saying yes like a million times, and he took my hand and slipped the ring on. It's the most gorgeous ring I've ever seen. It's an E on the DEF scale which means that the stone is colorless and only 2% of all the worlds diamonds are colorless. Its just over half a karat, and it has a white gold band.

I LOVE IT!!!!! I just think it is just so amazing and gorgeous and I am sooooo happy :)

Time for some sappy stuff...

  Alright, so recently I watched the movie P.S. I Love You....I've seen it before, but now that I'm no longer single, I think that it has a different impact on me that it did before. If you haven't seen the movie, its about a young woman named Holly ( who is played by Hillary Swank) who marries an Irish man named Jerry (who is played by Gerrard Butler), and they are married for 10 years. The movie opens up with them having an argument about something the husband had said, and she took it the wrong way. Well after about 10-15 minutes of the arguing, they apologize to each other and make up...You can just feel the love these two characters have for each other. Well, The next seen, after you fall in love with this couple, you see all these people wearing black, walking into a bar, and then you see the wife, and then you see an Urn...As it turns out Jerry has died, and they're having his funeral at a local bar. Well while the wife is grieving, she locks herself in her apartment for 4 weeks, until her Birthday, when her friends and family surprises her with a small party. She opens up the cake she received, and it says "Happy Birthday my love, love Jerry." She starts to get upset when shes handed a tape recorder that came with the cake. Jerry has recorded himself on a tape, telling her she is going to receive a series of letters from him, to help her through the grieving process.Well as the movie progresses, she gets the letters, and each one is just as loving and yet so sad as the first. As time goes by other men come into her life, and it becomes harder for her to move on.
  Through the rest of the movie, Holly visits Ireland where she first met Jerry, and visits his family, and meets a man who she finds very attractive man, but doesn't feel that its time to find someone else just yet. She goes home, and finds something that she fills up her time with...Designing shoes. And she becomes great at it, even though she begins to distance her friends. At the very end of this movie, she receives one last letter. In the letter, Jerry explains to her that it was a privilege to be her husband, and that he became a man while married to her. And then he tells her to not be afraid to fall in love again. He says that he was only one chapter in her life, but that she has many more chapters to go in hers. And she answers him back. She says that maybe one day she will fall in love again, but falling in love doesn't always has to be with a man, she fell in love with her job as a designer, and her family and her friends all over again.
  So while there is a slight happy ending there, I do think that it is a MUST see for every woman...even if you hate romantic movies. Personally it made me think. How would I be if I lost Landon after only 10 short years or sooner? Would I lock myself away from the world for weeks on end? Probably....would I hate my life? Most likely....Would I be able to move on? Well....I don't know...Right now I would tell you NO, that there was no way I would ever be able to love another man in my life.
  This movie is the saddest, most romantic, movie I have ever seen in my life and I love it. It's so very sweet. And I just love to see how her character deals with the extreme loss of her husband. I grew so attached to that couple through the movie, that I didn't want it to end. BUT anyway, I felt like I needed to talk about it :) I plan on Landon and I watching it together tomorrow afternoon while we're on our date. It's movies like this that really make you appreciate the man you have in your life.
