so over it

ok. if ONE MORE PERSON asks me about how the wedding plans are coming, i'm going to scream!!!!! it's not that i'm not excited about becoming mrs. sir, i'm just so over the giddy, bubbly squeals and unsolicited advice i'm getting from all sides. yes, i'm engaged. yes, i'm getting married. yes, i'm moving. yadda, yadda, yadda exciting stuff. i'm over it.

but really, i have myself to blame. because i created a little engagement video and posted on you tube, then told all my friends and family about it. oh and did i mention that i THEN created a special blog, chronicling our journey to coupledom? BIG mistake. while it is a big deal and a life-changing experience, i probably should've taken sir's cues and played it very low key. because people are asking me if i'm ready. if i'm nervous. telling me that i can't move so far away from my family. or giving me their version of emily post's guide to wedding etiquette. i couldn't deal with all the fuss. i'm not used to all the attention on me. which prompted me to go shopping for my gown alone (see previous post). i even snapped at a friend who was asking me how wedding plans were coming. she unknowingly walked into an ambush because she didn't know that ten other people had asked me that SAME question just a few hours prior. i even lamented to my future hubby that i felt like a bad bride for not playing the part of a happy go lucky future mrs.

so, what am i do learn from all this? really. sometimes silence is golden. and from here on out, i'm taking a vow of silence where our nuptial plans are concerned. well, except for here. because let's face it. no one's really reading these entries except for me and occasionally sir and the wandering blogger. things are pretty much safe here in dreniesays land. which is good because i'll have some pretty intriguing stuff to thrown on here soon. so, if you're used to sharing too much at times with everyone, be like sir and keep it to yourself. somehow, it works out better that way. well, at least you don't get bombarded with all kinds of "advice" or "ass-vice" as masumi calls it.

be silent. be selective with whom you share your thoughts. be blessed.
