I'm Sorry Mrs. Colón.. Ooooooo

Marc and I walking into my surprise wedding. My sister greeting me with my veil, and my mom putting on Marc's boutineer. I wasn't sad, just trying to hold in my tears of joy!

          Yesterday after Marc read the blog, neither of us could help but laugh at what he had realized. All these holidays we've spent together, and this year would be our first year ever as a couple. I wish you all could've seen how amazed he was. It's funny that every time we feel like something is so old for us, it's still so new. We haven't even been in an actual relationship for longer than a year yet (dating back to high school). <----- Now that's crazy! We've been by each other's side as friends longer than we have been in a relationship. You know how a couple of weeks ago when I changed my name and wondered how school would go? Well I'm noticing some of the differences I had predicted. Before when teachers said my full name, they had no hesitations saying Rodriguez. Now I'm constantly getting a, "Rebecca..... uhhh...," as I sit there giggling in my head because I know they don't want to say my name how it's spelled. Not only that, but when I was in class Wednesday night and the teacher was calling role I kind of dazed out. Usually that's fine, but not when your new last name begins with a C and you're the second person to get called on. Thank God I already know that teacher and she checked my name off. Not only have my professors been great about learning how to pronounce my new last name, we even have some fans babe. It's pretty cool! As soon as I walked to my methods class Tuesday, my professor immediately shouted out, "Congratulation Mrs. Colón", and yes, she said it right!! You can only imagine how hype I was. We spoke about the married life and she insisted I tell the class about our winter break shenanigans. I could honestly talk to that lady forever. It's so exciting to talk about Marc and our marriage with someone who is just as excited. It's been my first week of my last semester as a senior here at IUP, and I can say I have successfully made it as a Colón. I love saying Mrs. Colón. It has a nice ring to it (literally and figuratively).

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. Per request of my professor, some more pictures of our surprise wedding. Marc, you're a hit lol. Everyone loves you almost as much as I do <3

So close! We are so close to the end of the month. We've almost made it. I will finally have time off, and won't be as tired as I've been. Thank you love for sticking with me this month. I know it's been hard. With all of my sleepiness and staying on campus to get work done, even when we see each other, I feel like it lasts for just a few moments. There is also something super exciting about seeing our diplomas next to each other. For two, first-generation college students, we sure have done well for ourselves. Teamwork makes the dream work right?? I think so! It definitely helps to have a superstar on the team anyway. And by superstar, I mean Mr. Do-It-All-Himself-Colón. Thank you for being such a great teammate! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. I still don't know why you don't complain about the accent mark!

Sometimes we see, read, or hear things that we try to get across. For me lately, I've been trying to get across what young love means, and the beauty of it. Today, I came across another blog, where someone worded it in simplest form. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you Anonymous, I couldn't have said it better myself. " The question is asked: “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?” And the answer is given: “Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. "It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled but still clasped; their faces are seamed but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired but still strong with love and devotion. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.” " With love always, Becca Colón P

Exactly one year ago today. The time has truly flown by. I've posted this video a few times before, but we're finally at it's anniversary. What a year it has been love! Crazy, to say the least. We legit spent majority of our first year together apart. It's okay though, we made it back to where we need to be. I love you bub! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. Looks just like Rachel from Suits haha.
