Book of Days

Last day of 2011, let me share this very touching and sweet song:

It was a fine day. I was really excited. I never felt this excitement before. I was in a room. Everyone is busy preparing for the big day. I was glaring at my wedding dress examining it meticulously. It was a flowing piece of garment with a lot of lace on it. Very elegant. I love it but somewhere in me is a bit disappointed for I know this is not the wedding dress that I have always wanted. Ever since, I wanted a tube bubble dress for my wedding with a huge ribbon at the back. I should also be wearing gloves and my hair should be pulled up in a bun. Nothing grand really, just that. I think it’s cute and very feminine. But the wedding dress presented before me is somewhat the opposite of what I really wanted. It was elegant and classy.

I caressed my stomach. Although I can tell there’s no bump yet, I can feel there’s a life forming inside me. I was thrilled to start a new chapter of my life with him.

Then I could remember being in the church with my groom. He looks very handsome in his suit. “But isn’t he supposed to be wearing a barong?” I asked myself but nevermind, I’m happy and in love. They’re all that matter.. and then I snapped out of my dream with details of it planted vividly in my reverie..

I just finished watching a cute anime. It’s called Itazura na Kiss.

My brother just got married and he’s living with his wife next door. And I guess I’m still not used with the thought that after the day he got married, hell be going home to his wife.. not to us like it used to be.

Here’s the final draft of the invitation that I’ve been designing. I don’t know Photoshop that much that is why I just made a simple design.

April 30 is the date. My brother is getting married. I volunteered to do the designing of their wedding invitation to help minimize the expenses since this wedding is not planned.

I’ve just finished reading ‘Pride and Prejudice’ and all of a sudden it became my favorite novel. It’s charming and heart-warming in its own way. The novel’s first line– “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife“–gives you the idea [...]
