Mr. and Mrs. (Part 1)

Ladies and gentlemen.... *drum rolls*
I AM MARRIED!! : ))
Married for a week...
And honestly I'd say, there hasn't been much of a change in L's or my lifestyle.
It doesn't feel any different if my status had been changed or not.
L and I are still living our lives the way as before and still happy about it.

Then again, we are legally recognised and that kinda sounds cool. Imgaine someone calling me Mrs Chew, I do get a kick outta that! Hahahah

L made this even though I requested for a trail.. 

L preparing favours for our families

THAT FINGER! 


Honestly I'm disappointed with how tired I look... : (

Exhausted

It's less than a week and I admit this, I'm gonna drop dead from exhaustion soon.
Everyday I travel nearly 4 hours to and fro work (I found a shorter route but still ..)
Eversince I stepped into the office, I have been busy til I knock off. And I stayed back till 7pm nearly everyday for last week. And by the time I reached home, I really do not wish to do anything at all. I crave to crawl into my bed immediately and not do a single handicraft work.


I'm sorry but I'm really tired...
Thus the lack of updates...
: (((((

Annually

The title of this post refers to the birthday everyone has every year (unless yours is 29 Feburary...)
And I celebrated mine yesterday!
I'm really getting older (and hopefully wiser) *blush*


I had a lovely time yesterday, catching up with some old friends, Stephy, Jac and Rachel over dinner of portebello fries, classic salami pizza (simple but delicious), squid ink pasta and mojitos! I'm trying to cut my liquor intake, especially beer. Beer cause beer belly, no? Hahahaha. 
Last night was an exception for me to relax and drink (only 3 mojitos and 1 Jager Bomb) Too bad there was no pictures to show you guys again... : (
Nevertheless Happy Birthday to me! 


Anyway my progress on my DIY crafts for the wedding are really slow. I'm growing from impatient to frustrated. And I really can't handle. The 2 friends whom I seeked help from, were not really helping or can't commit. Lies were being told and (their) lies were being exposed. Now I do ponder on the value of our friendship. It's just a DIY project for my wedding and had things come to this extreme that "close" friends had to lie?! What happen to "sisters" as we had affectionately called each other then?! We used to be so connected but over the years, as our lives went in various directions, we had drifted apart. 


However said friends claimed that no matter what, I could always approach them for help anytime, anywhere. And I know I would do that for them (as long as it's within my means.) But I guess my friends' claims had gone past their validity dates.  
We used to fantasize about how my wedding would be. As I'm like the last girl to get married, said friends were always so enthusiastic. Reason being they had so much fun planning and completing the process of their weddings, they were pretty sure I would too.  And back then, I'm always with a fake front, "oh no I don't want to get married!" But they ensured me they will be here to plan with me, to help with any favours I require but now .... Oh well.... Sigh (btw, said friends did not send me birthday wishes and I did wonder had they forgotten about me? Or I'm just a nobody in their lives even though we had spent 17 years together?!)


I'm hurting but I'm positive I could move on. From the bottom of my heart, I know that I will not give up on the friendships easily. I could occupy myself with completing the tasks on hand and not fret about who was or who wasn't there for me when I need them. At this point of time, I would just need to refocus on my career and my upcoming wedding.
Then again are there any kind strangers who would like to commit a couple of hours in the evening to help me with my DIY projects? Dinner provided ala my mum's cooking. : )


Was surfing the web earlier, before I dive head in to the crafts again, I came across this dress on Martha Stewart webbie. It was so beautiful, I believe the beauty is beyond words. I'm really in love with it. However the practical angelic side of me had informed me that the dress is really beyond me. Sighhhhhhhhhhh
