Hubby and Hobby

Almost 3 months into our marriage and I really miss our wedding preps. Sometimes I really wanted to buy myself a new wedding magazine or just check out the daily digest on my wedding-related yahoogroup. I've been hearing a lot from our soon to be married office mates about an upcoming bridal fair and I really wanted to attend again another one. Of course my husband is preppy much against to these all and wanted me to let go of the whole wedding stuff. Believe me, I do want to let go but I guess it was just too addicting!

That's why I decided to start a new hobby, Lomography. Nico was just all too supportive. Specially since this could take my attention off the wedding stuff. It's a really cool type of photography. It's kind of low tech really but that's what makes it interesting. The effects are dreamy! Anyway, since I'm just a beginner, don't expect to see perfect shots. These are just some of my favorites. I'm hoping that the next time, I'll be able to improve my shots.

From Bride to Wife

It's been almost 2 months since we got married and yeah, I must admit I still have a wedding hangover. I just can't help myself from still checking out our wedding pictures and onsite video. I've even tried my wedding gown twice to see if it still fits. It doesn't. :(

Most of my friends would ask me how it feels to be a wife. Honestly, there's not much difference except for the fact that we're now sharing one room. Partly it's because we're living with his parents so I'm not really obliged to clean the house, wash our clothes, cook meals, and other stuff that a typical housewife does. I only have my husband (naks!) to take care of.

Now adjusting my life as his wife is a different story since I have to deal living out of my parents place and moving with my husband and his family. I've known my husband for more than 5 years now and I half expected to live with a cluttered person. It was just amazing that we didn't have a difficult time adapting ourselves to each other's habits. I actually think it was him who had to adjust living with me since I would always remind him to put everything back to it's proper places. He sometimes complain that I keep telling him to do things like what his mother does. Talk about living with your mother!

What I miss the most are my mother's cooking and my dogs. Of course I miss my family too but I can always call them or text. On the other hand, I can't do that to my dogs or taste my mom's cooked meals not unless I'll go back home. Did I also mention our store? I never thought I would miss it but I do miss getting my daily fix of junk food. Since Nico's family is too health conscious for me, I had to make sure that everytime we go to the mall, I make it a point to buy myself a bag full of junk food. Teehee!

My husband just woke up and caught me doing this blog entry. Geez! I guess I have to add "privacy" as one of those things I miss about singlehood. Back home when I was single, I never had someone sneak up on me while blogging or writing comments. Wow, Ok, I'm rambling now. I have to stop. I'm no longer a bridezilla, no one will tolerate my tantrums anymore. I'm now a wife.

Status: Married!

It has been 13 days since I married my niccolo. All I can say is that so far, this has been the best 13 days of my life!

Definition of Stress


Stress is a biological term for the consequences of the failure of a human or animal to respond appropriately to emotional or physical threats to the organism, whether actual or imagined.

It is also a constant state that most Brides-to-be are in. This also refers to the hardship in dealing with the following (but not limited to):
  • Grooms-to-be who keeps saying "That's nice, baby. Too bad we're over our budget already" to all your suggestions.

  • Parents who keeps inviting people you don't know or you haven't seen since grade school

  • Suppliers who can't seem to keep their end of the contract

  • Bridesmaids who can't find an hour of their time for the scheduled gown measurement and fitting

Common sources of this condition are as follows (but not limited to):

  • Your fiance's parents didn't like the food selection of your caterer and wants to replace them with less than two months away from the big day

  • Engagement session that is yet to be scheduled

  • Music selection that is also yet to be discussed

  • Cake flavor and design that is yet to be finalized

  • Guestlist that seems impossible to finalized
