When in the event of pen failure...
No matter how many times you scribble to get the darn stubborn ink out, the pencil is always there to save you as long as there is lead.

By all means I should be studying, but this wedding planning seems to be much more appealing at the moment! Or...pretty much all the time!
It feels pretty incredible to be getting married to your best friend. We've only been engaged for over 5 months and dating for almost 5 years, but it feels like each day that passes by is even better knowing that I am going to be his future mrs. in a just few more months. The excitement is definitely rolling in. I have to admit, all this planning for this humungo party is stressful, but having Mike next to me makes it all the worthwhile. I am lucky to have him planning the wedding with me.
Just a few more things to do and we're almost done! Ok, maybe not. We actually need to speed it up a bit because the wedding will be in just 5 more months!!

The details are driving me nuts...
"Should I change my wedding dress to be ivory or white?!"
"Sage green and brown blend too much with our ceremony site and reception hall, let's change it to blue and orange!" A month later... "It's hard to match blue and orange, let's go with light daffodil yellow and brown!" And days later... "What if the yellow clashes with my ivory wedding dress?!?!" le sigh.
Sometimes in the midst of wedding planning, I tend to get sidetracked and lose sight of the more important things of getting married. In the end, all the little details of wedding planning turn out to be unimportant because frankly, people probably wouldn't even notice them. Initially these details didn't matter to me, but as time went on I began to focus more and more on them. It turns into something about what others feel/think and not how this is supposed to be a celebration of our marriage. I know it drives people nuts and I am forever grateful that my FI and friends all put up with it.
Here is a little something I found to help put things all back into perspective:
Sulla Tips
On a lighter note, my dress has been ordered and it is absolutely beautiful- very assymetrical and very me!! In the past, I couldn't quite grasp how some girls have a moment with a dress and know it's the one. Well, after having tried on a kajillion dresses, it finally happened to me! At that moment, it seemed like all time froze and I was in heaven. I can't wait for it to come in! :)

Mushy Moment
I came across a new song tonight - Lucky by Jason Mraz & Colby Caillat.
This song goes out my best friend, my soul mate, my Mike. =)
~
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel you whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again....
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Everytime we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you, I promise you, I will
~
Summer time's around the corner! Can't wait to be done with my 2nd year and be back home with the fam bam and my favorite person in the world!
