Better Together



Another school year almost finished!!

As a couple, all of our hard work is finally coming to fruition. Believe ME, this whole "both graduate college, hate our jobs, go back to college to do what we truly want to do" thing has not been an easy journey in the past few years. There have been tears, ramen noodles, fights, all-nighters, hard exams, long applications, wait-lists... pretty much anything and all the things listed in a thesaurus under 'ridiculous amounts of stress'.

Now, let me tell you some of the other things this journey has brought this past year-- tears of pride for Tony's good MCAT score after months of dedicated studying, the excitement of visiting schools for him to interview, the JOY of getting that precious acceptance letter, the anticipation of more goals and dreams for our future. We've sure learned a lot in the classroom, but we've learned even more about ourselves, both individually and as a couple.

After conquering all these battles, we have a renewed sense of commitment to each other and a refreshed hope for our future. We finally figured out that we make a pretty awesome team together and can accomplish anything we put our minds to.

a metamorphosis


....But then I shut up and it hit me.

We are working so hard and slowly all of our 'we wants' are beautifully metamorphosing into 'we wills'.

Our dreams are becoming realities.

I love this feeling.
