Let the Bodies hit the floor! Gettysburg style....

hi!

Well, this week has been crazy!

In the beginning of the week, it was warm. I mean really, really warm!

Then Thursday, it decided to rain all day and gets to be in the 50's!

Yesterday we had planned a trip to Gettysburg which included Dave, his girlfriend Monica, Nate, and of course me, which was indeed chilly but successful.

We got the historical tour; almost visiting each spot that mattered most on each day.

Though it wasn't though, for me anyway, at Pickett's Charge, where it hit me. The charge was led on the last day and Lee made them go. But, it's an open field basically. This lead to many men's death including one general's unit totally wiped.

For some strange reason, it wasn't interesting; it was sad. As I was imagining these men knowing they were going to die, I became more serious.

It's weird to think somewhere to close to where I live, there was a battle.

Of course, most people believe it had to do with slavery. Slavery wasn't really the main focus till much later; most Southerners even to this day believe in more state's rights then federal government.

But thankfully, Gettysburg changed that. With a heavy blow to the South, it helped for the Union Army to become stronger. Then it two years later, the war was over.

So, I'm thankful for the fact that Gettysburg changed that. We had a lot of fun even though we were as cold as icebergs.

I think only in PA would it get cold in May!

So, I've been hanging out with Nathan for months now, almost everyday. It was our first time together really outside of school since our date from Hell.

Lately, I've been noticing how we get along so well. I've also noticed how much he has matured in the last couple of months.

Lately, he has been talking his wedding, which is surprising because after our second date, he did not want anything to do with that!

But I have forgiven him. Both of us were naive and did not know what we were doing.

As we both have busy terms especially next term, and he is going to Croatia in the Fall, and we both have internships coming up, I don't mind that we're not together.

I doubt we will be together as a couple but I think we will be great friends for awhile.

Though some people like my good friend from community college and who goes to my school now believes Nate likes me but I highly doubt it. Dillon says I'm in denial but I say I'm being logical.

Until I hear it from Nate himself, I refuse he likes me.

Though, this past week he told me the wisest thing he ever said; when I will probably never marry he told me as my class always work out, so one way or another, it will work out that I am getting married one day.

So, it will!

Anyway, I need to do stuff. Janelle was supposed to come down but she canceled on me so I need to work on Memorial Day and need to do homework for this weekend.

So, talk to you all later!

Faith.
