Well, life has certainly changed from the last post I wrote here. One way things have changed, shortly after Alan and I got married, Alan had started having multiple health issues. It's definitely challenging for our marriage to have these health issues so early into our marriage, but in one way, it's great to see how even though we've had our hard ( Read more... )

A couple of days ago, a friend and I were discussing a friend's relationship, which in my opinion, is the most mature, stable relationship he has had. However, he still doesn't seem to be completely over his last relationship. This friend said it was because she wasn't as attractive as his last girlfriend, that he felt that he could do better, and ( Read more... )

I was talking to my friend about about his past relationship, which ended over two years ago. He said his biggest problem with how it ended was he felt like there were still questions unanswered, that he felt there was no closure, even though he's in a relationship currently with someone he could really see a future with. It got me wondering, in ( Read more... )

So this birthday was different from all the others, and not because I was turning the dreaded 3-0. Alan and I got married in Bali! What was even better is that my friends and Alan's family was able to come and see us get married. I was a little nervous because they have never been to Bali before, and I was so swamped with wedding preparations, and ( Read more... )

It's funny how before I was engaged, I kept getting asked when I was getting married. Now that I'm getting married, I keep getting asked when I'm going to have a baby :-P I want to wait a couple of years to save up money so I can take some months off work to raise the baby, and I also want to have some years pre-baby to travel and whatnot. However ( Read more... )

So, Alan and I want to find an apartment before we get married so we can have a place to live after we get married. We started looking in June, and already found a place we like. We liked it so much that we put down an offer, and it was accepted! As exciting as this all is, I feel like it's going way too fast. I was hoping that the process would ( Read more... )

It seems with planning a wedding, it's impossible to make everyone happy. At first, we wanted two weddings, one in NY, and another in Bali. However, with us buying an apartment later this year, we wouldn't have enough left over for two weddings, and after looking into how much a wedding would cost here alone, we figured maybe it would be best to ( Read more... )

So, I haven't posted anything since my library adventure... Long story short, I didn't pass that test I was studying for. I didn't fail by much, 5 points, but failed nonetheless. I have decided not to try again until after tax season 'cause right now work is too hectic. Work has been hectic since even before tax season. Due to unfortunate ( Read more... )

So, in an attempt to find a suitable place to study (my house is SO NOT, too many distractions) I decided to go to the Mid-Manhattan Library. I originally wanted to go to the library near my office, but their hours don't work with my work schedule. I haven't been to the Mid-Manhattan library since I was in high school, but what I remembered of the ( Read more... )

Sunday was Alan's birthday, and this is the second birthday I was able to spend with him. Saturday, we went to Smokin' Al's, a BBQ place in LI, to have dinner with Lauren, and we hung out at Connie's new house with his other friends afterwards. The Sunday of his actual birthday, his parents made dinner, and we had dinner with his parents, his older ( Read more... )
