This last month before the wedding is a lot to digest...
But more than having all these things I need to do,
I think it's the conversations that I have with my parents that's the hardest.

I'm so blessed to have the best parents anyone could possibly ask for.
It would be so much easier on me if I didn't know,
but there's no way I could doubt how much they love me,
and how much they sacrifice themselves...even now...for me.
It's amazing how selfless their love and their effort is towards me.

These days, my mom and I always have moments where
we have to fight the tears as our voices waver
as my dad sits and smiles a smile that means a million different feelings.

As I sit on my bed typing away,
I can't help but wonder how much more difficult it would be for them...
to let go of someone they gave birth to, taught, loved, prayed and cared for for the past 24 years.

And as I write this, I am reminded of today's sermon and the love and the grace that God has shown us. I am thankful that my parents' love for me, points me to His love for us.

Forever grateful will I be.
How blessed I am.

Spent the past 1.5 hours chatting to the representative of a 한복 place in Korea via KaKao.
Though not very traditional, I thought the dress above was stunning.
Now the question is, can I pull it off? Is it too much?
Of course, I'm thinking I'll have solid sleeves, maybe a cream color.
Anyway, Jenny and I briefly talked about this last week in LA, but 한복s are beautiful.


hello, fashionista!


uh, if I hadn't already bought my wedding dress and reception dress, I would've definitely considered this for one of them.

Like I said, it's so easy to fall away from doing this...but I'm still committed!
So, while I did attempt to blog while I was in CA, it was a fail because I wasn't able to fill out anything past the Title on my iPad. I later found out that I need to download the blogger app, but that was a couple days too late.

So so so many things seem to have happened in the few days that I didn't blog.

First off...I have the best bridesmaids in the world. :)
You guys humble me and make me wonder at why you guys are so good to me even though I fail to return the favor so many times. :*( Thanks ladies...





Next, the Costa Concordia...yes the one I was to be on board in March has sunk...is sinking? This has been all over the news the past few days...it's the first time since the Titanic sank 100 years ago. Already 11 dead, and the death count will probably only go up now, since it's been so many days and I don't know just how long people can survive without food and water, etc. It's horrific, and to think that the same captain would have been my captain in a matter of weeks' time, makes me shudder.



This, of course, leaves Danny and me back at square 1 on our honeymoon. (I feel so selfish to write about and be concerned about my honeymoon when such a tragedy has occurred...sigh*)

Lastly, I've finally placed all my orders for the invitations. I hope I get them by the end of this week, but I'm thinking it's more likely that I'll receive them next Monday. Then, off to work I go, as my goal is to send them out by the 25th at the latest.

Haven't been able to do some "reflecting" in some time, but it's getting late and I must go to bed now. Hopefully tomorrow. :)

Goodnight!
