Creative Urge

These days there are a million things that I want to do. I can't even remember when was the last time I felt this need of wanting to do and learn something new. I think it's a good sign; I'm inspired! Well not that I'm not because I always am, I just don't have the drive to do so. I don't know though if this "current state" of mine is temporary only. Maybe I'm just too caught up in the preparations I've been doing lately. I'm also continuously inspired by nice interesting websites that I've been stumbling upon; tremendously creative people I must say. If only time permits, I want to seriously take interior design classes. Maybe I watch too much design shows. Hello Nate Berkus, Jonathan Adler, and Kelly Wearstler! Hehe. I also want to take basic photography and graphic design lessons. I don't know which one to do first. Basta I want to be able to do something creative. I want to stir my creative juices, if there's any at all. And then there's still that ever pending plan of becoming a successful entrepreneur. Someday perhaps, when I already know what I'm going to sell. Hehe. I know the interior design, photography, and graphic design plans are attainable in the near term. I just don't know if I can do it with work and all. Wah!

Lucky Day

I caught a glimpse of a perfectly arched rainbow this afternoon, and it was just outside my room. It was raining earlier and jogging plans had to be scrapped. And then the sun came out. I was talking to Dolfo over the phone telling him that I can see the sun already. I actually first noticed the sun being extra yellow because it made the white building turn into a yellowish shade. I thought it looked odd. And then I saw the rainbow, a super nice one. It has to be the second nicest perfect rainbow so far on my list.

342 Days

342 days before “the big day”. It still seems so far away, which means I still have plenty of time to worry and stress all I want. Hehe. Actually planning has been smooth and stress free so far. I’m still very much a Bridechilla. *cross fingers*. I hope the Bridezilla horror stories I always hear won't be applicable to me. I realized recently that I have to stop buying wedding magazines already. It’s getting to be addictive already because the more I read, the more ideas I have; the more ideas I have, the more confused I get. I’ve always wanted a simple, intimate, and elegant wedding. But there’s so much to consider. For one, I have a big family. Yes emphasize on the BIG please. Second, there are certain “protocols” that I have to follow, but certainly would want to do away with if given the choice. And lastly, aside from considering just about everything and everyone else, I also have to consider about us ensuring that both of us do not get lost in the process. Planning is ultimately not forgetting about us as a couple, which is the very reason why we are here in the first place. And here I thought, planning a wedding is just going to be a breeze. I guess with our culture, it’s nearly impossible. I’m not complaining though. Maybe people are probably just as excited as I am. So I’m taking everything in and making sure everyone’s a part of it, at the same time without sacrificing what we want. Hmnn..paano kaya yun? Hehe. I’ve psyched myself over and over again that no matter what happens, I will not sweat the small stuff. Stress, fret, and panic are absolutely no-no’s. After all this is just a one way ticket and I just want to be able to enjoy the ride before it’s over.
