I just can't believe it! We arrive at college and I'm trying to get used to the idea of living without my mom and dad, and Mansur goes and does this! He asked me to marry him. I couldn't believe it. I just sat there for a moment looking at the ring, then at him, then at our twin bowls of chili. I find it very comical that he would pick dinner time at the dorms to pop the question. I could see that he was starting to sweat, I smiled then said yes. OMG! Can you imagine. I'm going to be Mrs. Mansur Sanchez.

Shortly after arriving to University my dad, The Mayor, lol. Announced that there would be a new deal, Free Time, signed. I thought the idea was pretty neat. That was until I realized that my love for dance could be turned into a real hobby. So I pounced, and now I'm addicted to it. I'm only one bar away from maxing out music and dance, and I spend all my free time (no pun) blogging about the joys of dance online.
Mansur doesn't mind since he does spend his free time playing LAN party games. I joined once just to see what all the fuss was about. It was fun but not as much fun as searching the web on the newest dance moves or new released music. And with all the dancing, it has paid off in the long run. My body is 100% fit and I look great. If and when me and Mansur choose to have children, I won't have to worry about losing my shape, lol.

I was so home sick. I missed my parents and little sister like crazy. So it was nice to be invited home for her birthday from toddler to child. It was cool to watch her transition. Another cool thing! How much we look alike, but also different. Mary looks more like our mom and I more like our dad.
So I was back at the dorms and complaining to Mansur about how much I miss home when someone tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around and screamed n delight. It was Daddy! I have him a super tight hug. It was so awesome for him to come visit me. We spend the day together, but it was cute short for my finals. I later found out that my sweetie arranged the whole meeting.

Zalliya got a make over, which I liked very much, but I though she did it for all the wrong reasons... a guy! So when I found out that she was pregnant I was a bit put off and not to mention surprised. I mean I have never known anyone pregnant who wasn't married and an adult. But she is one of my BFF's and I had to support her no matter what. It was cool feeling the baby kick. I can't wait until she gives birth. I hope it's a girl!

It's getting harder and harder to say no. But I have to stick to my guns. I want my and Mansur's wedding night to be special, and if we go ahead and give into temptation now what will we have to look forward to? NOTHING! lol Plus, when it starts to get a little too heated, I hate to say it, but I think about Zalliya, and that cools my heels. I do not want to end up like her, having a baby and still in school.
