20 minutes till lunchtime

Here I am at the office, pretending to be working when all that's on my mind is who would be designing my wedding gown. Ha!

I've been trying to finish this report on India's corn, soybean and canola seed market. I started this last week and I still have about 200 words to go. Mabilis nalang yun and my editor extended my deadline pa to tomorrow, 2pm. Alam niyo kapalit? Tanduay. My boss is caucasian and he used to work for the Factory. Small world, huh? But I don't think he knows I know a lot about him na. Notorious kasi siya sa Factory eh. I think he was "let go" because of his attitude.

Anyway, back to my gown.

Just this week I had a dream again. It's the day before our wedding and I apparently forgot to have my gown made. Hahaha. Anubayan. Kaloka. Sana makahanap na ako ng designer!

I checked nga pala sa The Link Wedding dito sa Singapore how much a Vera Wang bridal gown costs. Starting price is S$5,000 (about P150,000). Umaygash. Kenot afford lah. I just thanked the girl I spoke to and hung up. So expensive lah! Ayan ang napala ng bride na ambisyosa. Hahaha.

Hmmm...Bakit kaya di kasali si Monique Lhuillier sa scene na nagmodel ng gowns si Carrie Bradshaw?

Three more days to go!!! Yahooooooo!

happy!

Right now, I feel so blessed and happy. And relieved. =)

Salamat po, Lord.

Can't wait to go home!

good sign

All the three wedding coordinators I e-mailed yesterday are still available on our wedding day! Hay salamat. I only need on-the-day coordination kasi ayoko mangarag sa araw ng aming kasal.

I have to keep my fingers crossed though kasi madami pang pwedeng mangyari until ma-book ko ang isa sa kanila (Lord, nawa'y makuha namin ang coordinator na nararapat sa amin).

Top 10 reasons why my Mommy is special

1. Because she has a multiply account, a friendster account, a YM account and a facebook account. O diba, updated?!

2. Because she looks younger than she actually is. Daig pa ako kasi nagg-gym yan.

3. Because she's so fasyon. I used to be able to borrow from her pero ngayon ewan ko na.

4. Because she always listens and she does so without judgement.

5. Because she gave me and my siblings the freedom to choose who and what we want to be even if she had her dreams for us.

6. Because we can be ourselves in front of her without fear of rejection or being put down.

7. Because she made us feel it was okay to do what we want. Well, as long as we knew and understood the consequences.

8. Because she made my and my siblings' childhood filled with sugar, spice and everything nice.

9. Because she accepts the people we choose to love.

10. Because without her, I wouldn't know life as I know it today.

I love you mommy! Happy mothers' day!

Six Weird Things About Me:
1. I can't sleep on a bed with kulubot on the sheet.

2. I need to have a condiment with all of my meals. Patis, suka, toyo, catsup or bagoong--name it, lahat yan may kapartner na ulam. Hehehe.

3. I love to buy books but never actually read them. Well, not immediately at least. There's something about new books that attracts me to them. Maybe it's the crisp pages or the smooth cover.

4. I can't do any serious work when my hair is not tied to a tight bun. After the wedding, I'm thinking of having my hair cut short.

5. I can twist my tongue vertically.

6. I can't and choose not to wear high-heeled shoes.

I tag B, Apple, Yen, Kim, Tanya and Ailene.
