Aside from just enjoying the time we are engaged the next two years are going to be very busy for me. This fall I quit work at HUP and begin school full-time for my CRNA (certified registered nurse anesthetist). The program is intense and most of my time will be dedicated to studying. So realistically planning a wedding within a year or less while in school is not ideal. The fall of 2010 I will be prepping for my Boards and the last week of Oct./first week of Nov. I will take my exam. Hopefully all loose ends will be tied up for the wedding by then and we will get married tentatively the weekend before Thanksgiving. Hopefully that clears up some of the reasons for the wait.

Timeframe
So I know that a lot of people have been wondering why we are waiting 2+ years to get married. Well Quoc and I talked about this among many other things prior to getting engaged. We wanted to take our time and really enjoy just being engaged and planning things for our wedding slowly. I didn't want to feel rushed into decisions for the wedding or fall into the Bridezilla stereotype. Someone I knew got engaged on a Friday and on Sunday his fiancee was already dragging him to see reception sites. That is just insane! I must admit though after people started handing me bridal magazines I started getting really excited about planning and Quoc would have to nicely remind me to calm down...being as we do have 2+ years to make any decisions.

Haha, you guys don't count in that general statement. You also planned ahead it would be long because you were also in school finishing your thesis and buying a house. My original comment to many people when I got grumbles for doing it in 2 years is that my sister did it as well and the 2 years went by faster than you'd think. So my answer to that comment is no. I'll have to edit that post.
