My R&R

I've been feeling so exhausted for the past couple of weeks and my body has finally won over my fear of not showing up for work (thank god!). I have tons and tons of things to do at the office but with a headache that feels like its ready to split open my head, why bother, right?

I've decided to write something in my blog again for the simple reason that I miss writing about things other than my constant whining and complaining about work (thanks to Eggy for enlightening me on this, hehe).

As the days go by, I feel more and more excited about the wedding =)

We've started with our canvassing 2 weeks ago. Divisoria is the place to be for couples on a budget. Never have I seen a place that had sooo much to offer =) In the heart of Divi, along Ilaya Street was a mecca of wedding dressmakers and their array of gowns. In the beginning I was feeling a little disappointed because everything was ready-to-wear and everything looked the same. Miguel and I asked around for the prices and packages that each shop offered but everybody seemed to be saying the same thing. Luckily (oh yes it was luck indeed), the very last shop that we entered had better things to offer. The owner showed us different kinds of fabric and even gave tips on what looked best and what was practical. She also offered a package that seemed within our means. We also finally had an inspiration on the motif, torqoise ((thanks to shop owner!)!

Next week, our next stop is to attend the wedding exhibit at SM Megamall. Hopefully, we'll find more ideas and find good and potential suppliers so that we can start organizing the wedding!

Soo exciting!
