That’s right guys, I ordered my ring on Monday!! It was $453!! It seems like a lot but when you compare it to the guys’ that start at $900, they were practically paying me to order it. I put my full name inside: “Ashley Nicole Galloway”. It’s also natural and not antiqued like the photo above displays. I also decided against the diamond for now. And an extra side note, mine will have an “11” instead of the “10” in the picture.
Ring day is September 17, 2010 at the Former Students building on campus. I won’t know my time until the week before, but I’m trying for a time slot that not many are racing for (ie most people want the earliest or latest times, while I want one kind of in the middle).
I am so excited!! My parents, siblings, Phillip, and his parents will be joining us for sure, with the possibility of more coming as well.
Friday I will get my ring and we will have dinner, then Saturday I’m planning on a Campus mini-tour, given by me, and a wine tasting at Mesina Hoff in Bryan. Laynes will, of course, be mixed in there somewhere too. But the big event is my ring dunking!
What is a ring dunk you ask? Well, it’s a tradition (go figure) in which the ring is “christened” in an alcoholic beverage to make it officially yours. The drink is poured, the ring is dropped in the bottom, and you must consume the entire container to reach the bottom and get to your ring. I am leaning toward a glass of champagne to keep it classy. However, wine at Mesina Hoff is certainly not out of the question either.
Yay for aggie rings and yay for being that much closer to graduation!! (6 months and 2 days!)
