Yen's QOTW

1. Is it fun being you?
Sometimes. But I am more of the serious type.
2. What have you changed your mind about in the past few weeks?
My feelings toward some people at work. I have realized that life is too short to hold a lot of grudges in my heart. For now, I take it one day at a time. Whatever God provides will be appreciated.
3. Do you find yourself in a better mood on a sunny day?
I dunno but I have this better feeling after the rain. I love the smell of after rain.
4. When meeting someone new, what makes you feel more comfortable?
If we have the same taste in things.
5. If you could be any god or goddess from mythology, who would you be? & why?
Venus, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to find out why LOL
6. How do you spend the night before a “big” day?
I stay up late.
7. Describe the person that would be the exact opposite of what you find attractive.
Can't think of anyone right now. I am too preoccupied with the barcode scanner that I am being asked to scout for our store.
8. I would be a happier person if…
I get that very important phone call soon...
9. Have you ever regretted?
Yes, a few times but I try not to think about it too much.
10. I seldom _______ without a _______ in my _______.
I seldom leave without a prayer in my pocket.

phone call

I am waiting for a phone call and it is killing me, literally. I hope I get that call now so I can take it from there.

wedding flowers

For most brides, wedding flowers would be one of the last priorities when planning for a wedding. Why so? It is simply because most of them would want to invest more on their photos, while others their gown, while the rest would want to get the best caterers because as they say, you can only gauge the success of a wedding if the guests loved the food that the couple served. I was not very particular with the flowers on my wedding day but I guess, I was one of the few lucky ones to get a professional, artistic and creative florist to help me out. These days, once can opt not to get one. There are a number of really nice sites online where a bride to be can get ideas from. Whether or not you put flowers as a top priority in your wedding is beside the point. What is important is the marriage after the grand celebration. No amount of flowers can compensate the satisfaction brought about by a happy home.

Mr. Kaleidoscope World

Amidst a very busy Friday (with the weekend reports and all), my husband shared to me this sad news.

It’s been cold summer nights since we drifted apart
Cold summer nights since you walked out that door
Cold summer nights… oh, here on my own
Coz I miss you baby, I need you here

Rest in Peace, Man from Manila.

bridesmaid gifts

I wonder what bridesmaid gifts I can give for a cousin who is tying the knot in May. She is actually based in the US so I am pretty sure she is familiar with The Knot Wedding Shop. I mean, who isn't? This is probably your one stop shop slash wedding guru. So I am busy spending time online looking for items from their site. I am seriously considering in getting her cake toppers which I plan to have their names embossed on it. Cute, right? I just wish she will like it as much as I do and keep it so they have something to remind them of their wedding day years after.
