It's been almost three months since our wedding and time could not pass by more quickly. Getting married late summer is fun because you have October birthdays (why is everyone conceived in February!) and the holidays to look forward to, so the vibe is busy and the mood is still festive. It feels surreal that Matt and I are married and although there aren't too many surprises, there are still many things I'm learning about Matt and marriage on a weekly basis. There have been multiple accounts where I'm just staring at Matt for a few minutes in disbelief and without me even saying anything Matt just says, "I know... you can't believe we're married." Haha o_o
With Matt back in school and with his schedule picking up, we don't see each other as much as we did before. It almost feels like we're dating but living together. Haha. Being a student in dental school is no easy task. Med students have bizarre schedules. If they're not in school, they're in lab or clinic seeing patients, and when they're home they're constantly studying. If school wasn't already enough, there are still other responsibilities to prioritize and in Matt's case, now a wife to care for. I'm grateful that Matt still makes time to hang out, study together and participate in church/social functions. We are both learning to adjust to marriage, to each other's habits, preferences and planning things with each other's schedules in mind.

A funny thing happened the other month. Matt is a firm believer of the electronic tooth brush and felt it necessary to buy me my own set so I could practice brushing my teeth properly. Little did I know that it came with a clock that senses the vibrations from the tooth brush. Apparently if I brush under 2 minutes, he can tell because the clock will show a sad face under my name. Hahaha. Definitely had sad faces under my name on the clock the whole week...
Something I realized this past month is that we both are huge home bodies and although we like to be together, we do things independently in the home. You'll often find us in the apartment with Matt working on his bikes or studying in the office and me reading or watching Korean drama or Grey's Anatomy on the couch. Sometimes, I'll work on crafts or use the gifts from our wedding registry to bake. Occasionally, we'll take walks around the apartment complex or to the Trader Joe's the next block over. Amidst this season of change, I'm thankful things are finally settling down and that our apartment in Westwood is starting to feel like our home! <3
