sunshine through the fog

• throwing a tantrum in the middle of the night based on a dream and being met with patient pacification, not irritation.

Went for my first bridal gown shopping session yesterday. i must say it's been really fun seeing how I look in wedding gowns, albeit tiring and slightly confidence-deflating. i can now appreciate to a greater degree why so many brides nowadays look anorexic. as i said to shan, that should never be happening to me. though i do feel a certain "pressure" to lose some weight. oh well. let's see how it goes.  :p

Created a new category - thought perhaps good to track my progress somewhere.  i see brides with little pink notebooks, scribbling down lotsa details n stuff, checklists, planners etc. me? i've zilch. it's all on papers scattered round the study table or in my head. hahaaaa... luckily, i've got fantastic friends who give me lots of advice. one in particular who helped coordinate my gown shopping - that relieved a big load off me actually as if it'd been up to me, i'd still be procrastinating picking up the phone to make appointments! 

Now the thing I'm undecided is - embrodery v lace? which should i go for? personally, i've more of an initial affinity for lace (esp those super-duper expensive french chantilly onces!). but embroidery looks grander and stands out more in a ballroom setting.  n the really nice lace gown that i'm sallivating for is a whooping S$8k just to rent! kinda oot, huh?

Oh well... I've another shopping session next Wed + 1 mini on next Fri. Hopefully I'll have a better idea by then. I'm just too undecisive for my own good... sigh...
