fairy tale comes true

positivity over negativity

Tomorrow is my last day holding to the marital status as ’single’. I guess at the point when I was preparing for the wedding, I had decided to enjoy and have fun planning this event. True enough, I have fun and still having fun!

It’s an easy decision, but some people may require more mind strength to follow through this decision.

Yesterday, I received another order from Etsy store, from a local buyer, and I really hoped to send out the order before I leave for my honeymoon. My personality type makes me someone who takes things upon myself, and make sure I follow through what I started. If I send out the order today, she will receive it tomorrow or latest the day after tomorrow, and I would feel alot at ease that the transaction is completed.

I was so tired yesterday, woke up at 7am, as we had appointment at ROM to collect the solemnisation documents. Then the whole day through we went to quite a few places, and collected the dress in the evening. Yet, when I reached home, despite my watery tired eyes nagging me to rest, I insisted to work on the order first.

Since most of my customers are from USA, it takes longer for the package to reach them, so that is what I am more concerned with. I made an order tracking list which I would check with them when the estimated shipping time is met.

Today was a really fantastic day! All my outstanding orders sent out to USA, were received by buyers, and they gave wonderfully nice feedback in my store. That really made my day!

I completed the direction signboards which we will place at the carparks to the venue, so that guests will find their way. Prisia, our dress designer made the veil as per my requirement, and gave me the balance strip of diamonte. I only need to secure it on the barrette (for easy clip on) and sewn the diamonte strip on the veil. Quite satisfied with the finished piece though.

As I was still riding on the joy of the positive things that happened today, I heard over the radio that BKK had 2 small blasts, though no one was hurt. Hmm. I am not sure if I should be really worried about that.

I am still in the wave of thrill, excitement, and anticipation for wedding and trip, coupled with the positive feelings I have today from my business. It’s hard to drive these positive emotions out and get the negative news in. I guess it could be a subconscious decision too, to be aware of the situation of the destination we are about to visit, yet not be overly affected by it.

Oh, one more thing.. My dress turned out to be a little tad too ‘body hugging’, I may run short of breath on my wedding, anyone wants to bring the oxygen tank for me? Hahaha. Guess most brides are likely to be very affected if their gowns are to be not as ideally made for the big day. I am really not so concerned. I must have put on weight over the last few days, as I ate quite freely. Pris has been really nice (most of the vendors I engaged to do up my wedding have been amazingly wonderful, or was it my imagination??), so I am not going to point an accusing finger at her about the tightness of the dress for my undisciplined eating.

I made 3 lovely magnets with the butterflies print and presented to her instead. She has been really attentive and thoughtful and I just wanted to show my appreciation for her effort.

What I am going to try to do, is to go on high fibre and oats diet over these 2 days, and not missign out on the nutrition I need. If I don’t look like a happy white dumpling bride on Thursday, I probably managed to shrink my bodymass enough to look fine. If I act cute the entire event, you know that I am trying to match my behavior with my super chubby image. LOL.

End of the day, all I could wish for is not a perfectly smooth sailing event, but a fun and joyous one. So to speak, whether or not, I can look my best or beautiful bride, I know I am going to have fun!!!
