The Big Day - July 26, 2008
The big day has come and passed. I've always wondered if I'd feel like it was the most wonderful day of my life when my big day came. To be honest, there was so much going on that day, everything felt surreal and the unfolding of the day's events was breathtaking. We finally saw the fruition of all our planning. We finally saw the results of all ( Read more... ) -
Taipei Engagement Pics
Our Taipei engagement pictures arrived! I'm so lucky our friend so kindly volunteered to lug them back from Taipei for me. She was going to Taiwan for her own wedding celebration with her family in Kaohsiung and she managed to contact the studio to have them shipped to her parents home so she can bring them back to the US. The albums are so heavy. ( Read more... ) -
Sweet November and China
November has been a crazy busy month for me. After I came back from vacation, E and I were staying up late at night trying to book all the vendors we were supposed to book during the weeks of our vacation ( Read more... ) -
August 2007
August came and went so quickly. During the first weekend of August, I visited Scottsdale, Arizona for a bachelorette party. During the day, I experienced a luxurious spa treatment, napped by the pool, and went to yoga at our spa resort, Phoenician.

Middle of March update
The days fly by so quickly I have to constantly remind myself of all the things I need to catch up with. Working out and updating my LJ are always on my to-do list. I'm proud to say I dragged my butt to the gym twice last week. I intended on going yesterday and today but ended up getting stuck at work way too late on both days. On a brighter note, ( Read more... ) -

holiday cookie exchange
The cookie exchange with my coworkers is on Monday! I'm looking for recipes online and am thinking about either snickerdoodles, biscotti, or chocolate chocolate chip cookies. I can't make chocolate chip because I made chocolate chip oatmeal last year. Please let me know if anyone has a great cookie recipe to share! -
Glimpse of Europe trip
I haven't updated so long that I didn't realize that the LJ interface changed.
There just isn't enough hours in a day to do all everything I need to do. I haven't had a chance to write about all the changes I've been going through.
Some things never change. Drinking in Europe hasn't made my tolerance to alcohol better.
