Why start a blog?

To those of you who may not know me, my name is Melissa and this is a wedding blog me and fiance have created to share our thoughts and feelings as we grow closer to our special day. My fiance is Matt and he will also be posting blogs from time to time. I first met Matt when I was in high school. I needed a date to my junior prom. I had asked 3 people to go to prom with me and no one was able to make it. So my friend took it upon herself to play cupid, even though Matt had a girl friend. At first I wasn't thrilled about taking him to prom but he grew on me. We went to prom and it was fun but Matt continued dating his girlfriend for nearly another year. While he was with his girlfriend I continued to fall deeper and deeper for him. You can say I perused him. I use to visit him at work, make him Christmas cookies, Valentinesday Cards, Irish potatoes, and Easter baskets. Matt finally became single during my senior year of HS and his freshmen year of college. One of my close friends at the time encouraged me to ask him to our winter formal because who know where he'd be come prom season again. I grew the courage to ask him to the dance and he said yes. The same friend forced our first kiss on ourselves by encouraging us to take a "wild picture with our tongues out" and from that, our relationship soared. We didnt officially become an item until March 2005 when Matt creatively asked me to be his girlfriend. What can I say? We've been together nonstop ever since. Since then Matt and I have gone to college together. He studied Accounting and I studied education. He graduated, got a job, and I stayed in school completing my student teaching. It hasn't been real easy but Id like to think that its been easy enough. In 2007 we both went abroad and lived in Rome where we had the opportunity to travel all over Europe. Thats where we feel our relationship grew into something truly special. We are having an Italian themed wedding because of it. We got engaged in October of 2008. Matt came up with yet another creative proposal and I had no choice but to say yes lol. Originally we were going to get married in 2011 just because it seemed like it made sense. But sometimes making sense doesn't always make sense? 2010 is just a better number and a year really won't make a difference. We've been together for 5 years now and don't plan on changing it up. So here we are, 131 days away from our day. We are getting married July 31 this summer. We really can't wait. Its very exciting. Anyway, back to my original question... why start a blog? Well, I'm the type of person who wears my emotions on my arm.... because I am excited and want everyone else to be excited with me. So please, if your not going to say anything nice, go fuck yourself lol. I arranged some pictures of me and matt throughout the years just as something fun for us to do.
