Fashionista.

First of all, special thanks to Annie! Those blogs are awesome. I love you already, and I haven't met you yet. :p

Secondly, I want to talk about this big move to NJ. This is totally unrelated to the wedding and kind of not related to moving, but one of the coolest things about moving over there is that I get to be fashionable! Woo! Sometimes it's hard to find good cheap items here in Vancouver. A lot of the local stuff is super expensive, and everything else is overly priced/taxed. A lot of my close friends usually cross the border to grab steals and cute items (and not to mention the cute stores that only USA has). Crossing the border I will have to do no longer! Target, uniqlo, top shop and whatever else, HERE I COME.
As estatic as I am, I doubt Ryan would be happy with me spending all of his money. Though, what's his is mine, right? Just kidding.

Speaking of which, does anyone have online suggestions to cute but CHEAP clothing websites? ... and also thanks again to Annie for Gilt Groupe!! (More and more reasons to love you girl!)

Interior Decorating.

So I have been looking at websites for a while, and I'm just wondering if any of you know of house decorating blogs? Ryan showed me the awesomeness of RSS feeds and google reader. (Yes I know, I'm so waaaay behind on times)

So another phase of wedding planning? HONEYMOON PLANNING. How friggen awesome is Hawaii? I'm so excited to just lay down on the beach, relax in hammocks and ride around in vespas in and around the island. I can't wait to go back home all burnt toast. Woo.

Hrm.

I am officially tired.

Who wants to take a mini vacation with me?

Less than 2.

...months until I'm out of here.

Despite my deep deep sadness that I'll be leaving my family, I won't be having my friends around, and the familiarity of Vancouver.. I have to say that I'm freaking excited to get the eff outta here.

For starters, after the wedding, I won't EVER have to look at theknot.com's checklist again, I won't have to see another flashing alarm clock telling me that an item is due, I don't have to work two jobs, and lastly.... I don't have to stay up late crying because I miss Ryan.

Oh, and after I move, I'm no longer going to be the people pleaser Mae, I'm going to take after Ryan and just hate on everybody.
Haha, just kidding.
Sorta.

Dumb questions, outrageous requests and trying to not stress out is actually killing me little by little. Maybe I'm being dramatic now, but people are starting to comment on how tired I am. Not that I already know that I am tired.

I just have to say that I'm looking forward for a little peace and quiet, and to hang out with Vic. I miss Vic. (The Castro's doggie)

R is for Registry.

Whooooo, my favourite thing about this wedding. GIFTS! (Just kidding)
We're finally looking at the registries, and I must say.. I'm as excited as a dog waiting for the owners to come home. I'm so ready to pounce and claw at this thing.

.. figuratively speaking of course.

So I sit here, and I wonder what kind of theme our future home will be, will it be eclectic, kind of an Alice in Wonderland theme, or will it all match and look all pretty? Hahah.. I wish. What I do know is that both Ryan and I have the same kind of style. We are both currently rocking the pigsty look for our bedrooms at home. That will most likely be the theme for our future home...

Anyway, with all of this going on, I've got to say.. I'm quite excited to get on with the wedding and play house for real with Ryan. I can already imagine it, hospital visit after hospital visit because he tries to eat whatever I try to cook. Poor guy.

Hectic-ism. (Random blog to just type and let out the stress)

2 months until I move.
3 months until we get married.
No time to do anything productive.

... or at least that's how I feel!
We have big things out of the way... Church time, venue, the guest list, immigration, attire (his and mine :p), bridal party, sponsors, engagement party, tickets (one way tickets included).. but it seems like a million other things need to be done in a short amount of time. Well, that's what theknot.com's checklist is blinking at me with... those little alarm clocks scare me a little (a lot).

Next cool thing on the checklist, invitations. We're going to be ordering them in the next few days, and it's making this thing more real. I think I say that a lot, but it's true. Everything is slowly (but surely, I hope) coming together, and with the ordering of the invitations, save the dates are going to be emailed out. *sigh of relief*

On to the next thing, one way tickets. Can you say BIG DEAL? BIG DEAL!
It's official people, I'm outta here on August 17, 2010 at 12:40pm. Who wants to come to the airport to watch me go? (Only to fly out a month later to see me again?)
And on the other side, who will be at EWR at 9:00pm to welcome me to my new home?
And who also wants to hear how I totally yelled at everyone at work the day I quit?
(It's going to happen, and I might want someone to videotape it)

Oh, and we are starting to put things in our registries!
... can I list a car on one of those?

Double Digits.

Wow, our wedding is officially now in the double digit range for the countdown.

Phase 3 - Freak out mode starts now.

PS. The biggest reason why I'm looking forward to leaving? 1. Quitting this job. 2. Sending said job place a F*** You cake (thank you Aeson for the suggestion) 3. Sending one of the clients a F*** You cake. 4. This stupid rain. And 5. Not having to pretend I like people anymore. Just kidding. Not really.

PPS. Just two more months, let's make it HAPPEN.
