A Fun Weekend and an Interesting Surprise

Ok, so this is the first of hopefully many blog posts. I am new to this whole thing, but it should be a fun way to talk about stuff in my life through the medium of the internet to who ever will listen to me.
Starting off my first post I will say that this past weekend was a lot of fun. Had a group of the guys from school come down and we had a great time hanging out, playing video games, and eating like there was no other point in life. In regards to that last part, I kinda feel sorry for my friends, my mom loves to host parties and get-togethers like this one, and between the two of us, we bought way more food than we needed or than my friends and I could have eaten. I just hope that the guys come back again and that we didn't scare any of them off by trying to kill them with food.
It was great getting to see all the guys again, it had felt like forever since we had last seen each other. It was especially nice to see my roommate from college, Micah, again, cause I hadn't seen him since I left school over a month ago, and when you go from living with a guy and seeing him every day, and then you don't see him at all, you tend to miss him. I'm hoping we can work something out so I can go up to his house for a weekend or something; he has been wanting me to go up to his house now for a while, and he has been to my house twice now.
And now for the surprise, as Robert, Jeremy and I were watching "Shooter" (good movies btw, a lot of language, but good movie), I logged onto Facebook for the first significant amount of time that weekend. And lo and behold there was an explosion of posts on my homepage. All of it stemming from one little relationship status change from "In a relationship with" to "engaged to". On Saturday night (right after sunset according to one of my friends who had the scoop) one of my close friends at school was proposed to by her boyfriend, another one of my friends. The three of us were a little shocked at first, as they had only been dating for about 6 months, this seemed a little fast. And then there was the little confusion about the date for the wedding being July 10th, in about 2 weeks. This was cleared up by a friend who told us that is was July 10th next year. Ok, that's better. And then I thought about it for a little bit. My parents didn't date for very long before they were engaged, they just knew they had found "the one". So my heartfelt congrats to my two friends as they get ready to embark on one of the most difficult and easily failed tasks, marriage. All this talk of getting married brings back to my mind different feelings, and not those of the happy kind, but that is for a later post, as I have homework to do and I believe this post is long enough already.
