W Buzz

As the "V" day comes closer and closer, it feels like everyone is already feeling the buzz.

There's excitement for both Von and I, and I guess from both our parents too. Today, we got two highly different reactions from both our moms. We are going to Bataan this weekend with Von's family and his mom just offered a prenup shoot in the beach shot by no other than her! Haha! Expert mode ON! We think she's just joking but I'm all up for it, I think it'd be fun, as long as I don't get sunburned and lose the light skin I've been working so hard for!

On the other side of parentville, I saw a big balikbayan box when I woke up today I asked my mom if we have more of those. She asked why, I said so that I have a box to put my clothes in when I move to our new place. She smiled, became teary eyed and said... "Iiwan mo na kme.." Awwww. I dont like showing emotions at home so I said, "Ikaw tlaga, hinde naman", walked away and hid in the room.

A lot of emotions come in to play during these life changing transitions and sometimes we just really won't know how everything will turn out. I'm really excited for all that is to happen yet at the same time scared, apprehensive and sad to be parted from my family and the life I've lived for 27 years.

Sigh.... Deep breaths. 1 step at a time, I know all will turn out for the best in God's time.

In Between: Happy Easter!

Beautiful morning!

I feel so fresh, revived, strong, excited and happy! It's the resurrection of our Lord and I feel like my spiritual relationship has been restored anew.

Thank you Lord for all the blessings. I offer today and everyday to you.


Let's start searching for eggs!

120 days

4/23/11. Black Saturday. 120 days left.

Everything is starting to feel so real now. Plans are beginning to progress. Art projects are starting to materialize.

You know that feeling of giddiness, anticipation and excitement that can't be contained? Multiply that 100 times and you'd get to feel half of how we feel everyday.

A lot of things are in store for us beginning today.

  • My first gown fitting later this afternoon. 
  • At the same time Von needs to finalize swatches for his suit. 
  • Our first couple Victory group meeting. 
  • Finalize props and details for our prenup shoot with our official photographer
  • Prenup shoot/s
  • Pamamanhikan
  • DIY projects
And the list just goes on and on... Even our families can now feel the excitement.  I can't help but panic at times so I take a deep breath and close my eyes in an attempt to calm myself. With the long list of things to do, the best thing to do is to take things slowly, enjoy every moment and start with the now. And for now, I need to start my day, by getting some sleep. 

I'll deal with calming myself later.
