it's a blast furnace out there

ok
i might have said this last week
but i am taking it back now

seriously

now it's the only time i will actually appreciated it
if you pour a bucket of ice water on my head

after Day 17

it's pretty obvious that after Day 17

i was way too occupied to blog

and now

i am already into my 3rd month of marriage

between Day 18, wedding and now

it was just filled with craziness, fun, plane rides, presents, blessings and above all

love and laugthers

a low-key simple ceremony at our church

a family wedding in Guam

honeymoon in Italy

moving into our new place

saying thank you

my best friend got married

hiro's best friend got engaged

and MORE!!!!!

it's impossible for me to recap everything

but one thing i know

i am loving every second of this married life
hiro, arigatou

count down: Day Seventeen

pix by jo...while she is not listening at class

another reminders from the wedding prep.

"i am blessed with talented friends"

my friend jo designed the wedding program for me
and when i got the draft
it was just mind blowing

not only it's FABULOUS
it's exactly or more than what i was asking for

jo,
you are awesome!
thank you so much!!!

count donw: Day Sixteen

around 18:00 tonight
text from hiro: 経済部に残った (staying at economics section...no change)

NO WAY!!! was my first reaction
but i guess there is no NO WAY in God

HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now let's get to business
the moving, the wedding prep, i am with you 100%

count down: Day Fifteen

oh no!! you are not bringing me down!!

we have been waiting for his company to annouce the job placement/ transfer since March 29th

we cannot decide where to live until the annoucement is out

to be honest
it has been irritaitng the both of us and put both of us in a bad mood

The lesson of waiting

"Be still and know that I am God"
is seriously very difficult
but i am learning

tonight
hiro texted me...

nope...news is still not out tonight

i am NOT going to let it get me again just like the past 11 days
i am going to wait...happily...patiently
not today?! then maybe tomorrow!! or the day after!!
we will know it when we need to know it

count donw: Day Fourteen

one of my fav things to do...walking (with or without music)

me and him share many things in common
similar sense of humour (definitely on my top list)
similar taste of music
similar sense of movie choice
we usually agree with each other's choice of gifts, arts, food...etc.

we do of course have differences too
i choose the stairs while he prefers the elevator
i am more care-free (careless) while he is more cautious

i really appreciate all the similarities and the differences between
they make me simle
they make me cry
they build me
they frustrate me
but i am ever thankful

count down: Day Thirteen

a day off on a saturday for hiro?!?
wow!! celebration!!!

it may sound ridiculous that i get so excited
off on the weekend is not taken for granted
either getting off work before 11:30pm

lots are waiting for us to learn
