299 Days Count Down!

Yea... like 2 months of vacation was awesome! But I am super broke right now! I officially started work again today. Well... not like I have an official work schedule anyways. Love my job, love my boss (a.k.a Dad), and I love my work schedule. I was about to go on my FOURTH trip this summer with my family. Dad wanted to go to Quebec City for a couple of days, but then decided against it because we're all super busy and can't really afford to leave town again for another couple of days. Mom and Caleb just got back from HK on Saturday, and has to get Caleb ready for back-to-school on Thursday. Too bad, would have loved another trip, I'm always up for trips!

So... I just realized today that there are only 299 days left until our wedding! I can't believe how time fast time flew by this summer (my last summer being single!). When we first got engaged a year and two days ago, it seemed like June 2008 would take forever to come. But a year had already passed. I thought we still have a lot of time to plan our wedding, but now I don't think we do anymore!

Since LP will not be back until Christmas (for 2 weeks only) and next year, he will only be back like 10 days before our wedding. We wanted to do as much wedding stuff together as we can while he was here this summer. We planned to make our save-the-dates together, for those of you who don't know what those are, since people at MCAC never give them out, they're just to inform others of the wedding date so that they can reserve the date in case they planned to travel around your wedding date. Those were suppose to act also as an 'announcement' of our wedding because surprisingly, some people didn't know we were engaged until a month ago! We also wanted to get our gift registry done, take wedding photos, and make our invitation template. We didn't end up getting any of those tasks done except for our wedding photos. Well, we do have an idea of what we want our invitation to look like, but seems like there's still a lot more refining to be done to make it just the way we want it to be.

There's so much I want to do for our wedding. Well, I guess after this year's MCAC wedding season, I will get started on mine. I know how picky I am and how obsessed I am with the details, so I know I will have to start earlier and not leave everything 'till the last minute. I would not want to be like one of my US clients who ordered her wedding programs 6 days before her wedding! That is insane, if it was me I'd be panicking. At the beginning of this year, I already had my first wedding nightmare! I dreamt that everything was missing on my wedding day. I was standing inside the MCAC entrance where the welcome table usually goes and I was so depressed when I realized that none of the things I wanted to make got done! I was so happy when I finally woke up.
