Dear Diary
The festivities have barely ended for the past months, and this month was another frantic one, filled with preparations for the upcoming wedding. Pace of work has also gone up due to some reasons, but it is enjoyable.
Some fun activities marked this month as well, such as St. Patrick's Day and the recent Easter weekend. Lots of meeting up with friends to continue passing out the wedding invitation cards as well.
There was also the wedding dinner of a longtime good friend; a group of us took the opportunity to do catching up as well. I realise as we age and the stages of life change, catching up time as well as the people we hang out with seem to change drastically as well.
The Bridesmaids' Meeting happened as well, where we discussed the itinerary, who to help with what, and I handed out the bridesmaids' dresses. I kind of regret not having ordered the maxi dresses - would've looked more elegant and chic on them.
Networking activities for work and business continued to occur; always happy to meet new people. There was also the Guo Da Li (betrothal and dowry gifts exchange) ceremony that took place just last weekend. Lots to prepare, and lots of cake delivery to do. Saddened that I could not consume any of the cakes, wine or fruit exchanged, as it would equate to "eating away my own happiness".
Finally, collected the engraved rings and am happy to note that most stuff have been settled by now. The entire planning and preparation process was stressful and hectic but fun in retrospect. I believe I am not exactly "pantang" (superstitious) about a lot of stuff but I believe a lot in energy and positive thoughts.
All right, that's it for now. Looking forward to a new beginning and stage of life.
See you in April!
