My New Computer! :)
I finally decided that my 17" laptop was too large to be practical with college anymore because I couldn't transport it to class with me to take notes... SO... for my 21st (early) birthday present to myself I bought a 13" MacBook Pro. It is wonderful! :) Corey and I debated which computer I should get for a while and my argument was always "Mac's are cuter,"which cannot be argued against. Mac's really are cuter. haha. So Corey went with me to buy my computer at the Mac store and we asked the salesman Tons of questions so that we would be sure that this computer is perfect for my needs. I ended up buying the 13" MacBook Pro with the core2duo processer and then 1 week later Mac decided to release a new product.. the 13" MacBook Pro with an intel i5 core processer... I was fairly upset to say the least. However, it all worked out great because I brought the one I bought in and they switched it out immediately for the new version and transfered all my data for me. It was great! :) Overall, I think it has been one of my best purchases because I use it ALL the time. I bought a new backpack (the outside is black and the inside has CRAZY neon pink, green, and blue colors in it) with a laptop compartment. I take my laptop everywhere I go and use it in most all of my classes to take notes with. I think my favorite part about this computer is the trackpad because it senses how many fingers I have touching it. One finger is click, two is right click, two slid up and down is scrolling, three swiped to the side is back and forward, and four swiped down shows all of my opened windows and four swiped up clears the screen. Its definitely handy. Although there were a few things that were different and took a little bit of time to get used to, this computer is Perfect for my needs and I am very happy with it :)

Valentines Dinner at the Tuscany
For Valentine's Day Corey surprised me with a dinner! We went to dinner with Paul and Bonnie at the Tuscany, which is a beautiful restaurant with amazing food. They had a special Valentine's Menue and four course meal. The food was Wonderful and they gave Bonnie and me each a red rose :) We started off with a shrimp cocktail and then had a roasted strawberry and tomato soup that was super rich, slightly tart, and very good. For the main dish I had lobster raviolis, which were Amazing :) Corey had a steak and they carved his heads of broccoli into designs to make the plate look nice. It was pretty neat. We ended off the night with yummy dessert. I had the raspberry and chocolate tart, and Corey had the cheese cake. Overall, dinner was Amazing. It was the best Valentine's Day I have ever had :)
