PANIC!
Filed under Love & relationships
Three Months More and I will be MARRIED.
OMG.
***
It will mean I am joining the league of women who can start to openly discuss when and how it is best to make babies (I'm hoping to get preggies soon, or maybe its because for the past few weeks I've seen many babies come into this world and I LOVE LOVE LOVE cutesy fingers and toes). It will mean that I'll be worrying about groceries, and thinking about what to cook this weekend (because duh, I'm going to work still, since I'm a workaholic, and I can't leave my job). It means I am allowed to be possessive over Eric (not to say that I am not possessive already, I am I am). It means I get to settle down and work very hard not to turn into a yellow faced grandma.
Stuff like that.
But right now, I'm panicking – like the wedding cards. Or the simple question like, OMG how to handle the guest, and the very practical issue of 'how do you tell your non-chinese guests that the Chinese typically give people angpaus instead of bedsheets and teasets'. Or that difficult part like 'how do you balance the needs of both families – how to handle the 'dowry discussion'… or that part about, oh sheesh am I going to fit into my wedding dress come the big day?
And the even more minute details like, which tables to put A* and B* because B* doesn't like A* and B* also used to date C* who so happens to be A* old friend, and now D* also in the picture, who looks as if (s)he is dating E* who is apparently hated by all A*,B*, and C* … Wah lau…
I tell you the things I get myself into. Ridiculous. Its a wonder that Eric still wants to marry me (but you know hoh that guy puts himself into greater issues – like starting a business and buying an extra car in the same year he's going to get a new house and get a wife… its a wonder that I am still marrying him!).
We're so made for each other!

It will be fun. Its a once in a lifetime thing, so savour it. One day, you and your hubby will look back at this and have a good laugh! Let things flow and don’t get too stressed up — things will sort themselves!

This is getting very excited!
I can’t wait to see the wedding cards, the gifts that your non-Chinese guests bring (bedsheets?) and how nicely you WILL fit into your wedding dress 
Oh yeah, when you feel the need to panic, B.R.E.A.T.H.E.

I share the same frustrations as you in regards of arranging the seating for the guests!

There is a simple solution for the seating arrangement headache:
DON’T GIVE A SHIT.
or free seating works fine as well..

It’s okay, Choo Ki! You have me as a volunteer should there be a difficult seat to place! Mana pun boleh!

Yep, you guys are made for each other, was already thinking the same when u posted the other entry about Eric buying another 2nd hand car… lol…. both also so materialistic for the wrong reasons…..
Good luck on your wedding and all the best to Eric on his new venture.. J Remember, marriage is not something for showing off your assets. It is for the couple to join holy matrimony. When the heart is pure, you will have peace.

Bedsheets would come in handy…seeing that you’ll be having to change them often …especially in the first few months when you cna’t get enough of each other….or wait a minute..prolly for the rest of your life ;o)
