Finally the wheels are a-turning for this wedding I'm supposed to be having this November.

And apparently I seem to have forgotten to tell my 2 closest gal cousins the teeny tiny detail of the wedding date...actually make that the wedding YEAR.

OOPS....

So I guess I deserved that scream in my ear when I finally called one of them and happened to mention that I was upset cos it was only 10 months to my wedding and nobody seems interested. Hmm...maybe that's why people don't seem interested?

OOPS....

Well, I'm not that upset anymore...seeing how the wheels have come off the brakes and finally gotten to a reasonable speed. Not as high a speed as I would have liked but a decent pace anyway. So I'm satisfied...for now.

But I'm still searching for the wedding clothes to rent, someone to do my hair and make up and some form of entertainment (which does not include Karaoke. No thank you!!). Trying to use my days off to search for them with my mum although I'm usually so tired that I spend my day off sleeping the day away.

Mum has been surprisingly good and supportive throughout this process, well from the time that she finally got off her butt and started doing something that is. We've hardly quarreled. Or rather she's hardly risen her voice beyond a level and pitch I can't stand and she hasn't been as overbearing as I thought she would be. But I think the most part that is because she and I both have relatively similar ideas about what the wedding should be like. By that I mean, the level of tradition allowed to permeate through.

But I guess a large part of it is because of the fact that I'm gonna marry a Swede. I want to have as much tradition in my wedding as I can without it being too stuffy just so he and his family can experience a little of my Malay/Javanese culture. Well, more Malay than Javanese anyway. I'm actually excited about the fact that my wedding day would not only be a day that I show off my good looking husband (he ain't no Brad Pitt but he's one heck of a looker to me), my pretty clothes and the pretty throne I will be looking down upon my subjects with(bwahaha!). But it's also the day that I can show off my culture to him and his family.

It will be an experience for them. Oooh...can't wait for my wedding day!

**isn't it amazing what 2 weeks can do to one's level of crazy? This week it's on mid low**
