Enjoy!

Don't know..

if i should laugh or be saddened by the fact that the little girl is cussing....

Anywho, I think it's funny!

Today is monday, Jassen's little bros 18th birthday. We may or may not take him out for drinks, since 18 is like being 21 in the states here.

On tuesday, I should be receiving a package from my folks that contains photos and video of the wedding day! I am uber excited to get my hands on this and do some editing. THe sucky part is that there was a customs charge since there was a hard drive in there(that contains the video), so in total, the whole thing will cost me over $100 to have over here. Then, after all is said and done, i need to ship back the drive(and i hope there wont be a charge on that end as well.) grrr....

On wednesday, I will be collecting my wedding dress that has been pressed and cleaned and Jassen might be getting his tux soon as well! Also, this wednesday, a friend from America, Carol and her sister will be making their way to the UK and to visit. I am uberly excited about this as well, since its just awesome that at least 2 people from the states will be making me and Jassen's UK reception for this up and coming Saturday!

I already have a hair appointment booked, I am looking into seeing if someone would do my makeup....if not, I will do it myself, as well as my nails!

I am working on my pushups and arm exercises again, so i dont look to arm flabby in the dress.:-p

Since im obsessed about my weight...I have been more or less the same weight for a few months now(more or less 165). I believe that once Jassen and I have our own place, I am working(which should be the beginning of next month), and a combo a few things, I sincerely believe that my weight will go down in the ranges of 150 or less. At the moment, I am not as active as I should be, so thats why im not gaining or losing weight.

There is more to tell, but I will clue you guys in more as soon as I have more details on things...:-)

Hope this monday finds everyone well!

*hugs*

It seems...

to me as though I find it a struggle(at times, not all the time) to blog. If I am on a role, I can blog a few times a day, but inspiration is a funny creature and not one you necessarily lure in!

At the moment, I have re-activated my status at Manpower(a temp agency), so hopefully by the beginning of September, I should be on my way to making some of my own money, and not as dependant on Jassen. I often do feel my happiness depends on whether or not I am keeping myself pre-occupied. It comes down to that point more than I care to say.:-/

The UK reception plans are going accordingly, but now we kinda need someone to be in charge of keeping an eye on the entrance as so to deter wedding crashers and unwanted guests. Another thing that we are looking for are to people to video the event a little as well as take pictures! I will definitely be bringing my own camera to take pictures, so that will be my part. If it isnt that well recorded and such, so be it, but I know that my family back home would like to see some bits of it, since they are unable to attend.

Slowly, I am getting more professional pics from the wedding and my parents have sent in the post the video of the ceremony(which I will edit) as well as 130+ pics that I will have set up in a slideshow that will be shown at the reception for the people from the UK that were not at the event and so on.

Here are some piccies!

Went out to a restaurant in Camden Town(London) with friends Iain, Ada, and Jayne. We actually came into contact with a famous DJ Steve Lamacq! Ill have to find pics of that as well.

Manufacturing fear...

to cover up bigger issues...

It's either global warming.....bird flu.....mad cow.....and now foot and mouth disease....

Lies...all lies.

What is that bob marley quote? You can lie to people...but you cant lie to people all the time?:-/

Seriously.

And the UK reception planning...

is in full swing! Getting alot of tid bits here and there tonight, order favor bags for candies, and now is the time to figure what it will be filled with.

I like the idea of Minstrel chocolates, as they are a Galaxy branding and they are very more-ish! Tonight, we are getting Stella's and maybe some Budweiser. If I can swing it, I will see if we can stop by Ikea to pick up candle holders as well as candles.

It seems like alot of things are coming together on this end a bit easier(knock on wood) than in the states, so I like that.:-p

All I need to do is book a hair appt for the 25th and get my dressed cleaned and pressed. I will do my own nails and makeup...and maybe look up some sort of gold eyeblush....forgot what its correctly called...hehe

All is well.
:-)
