You are a unique bride.

Harry Holiday


Today my heart sings! I just got hold of my hardbound copy of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It's another long weekend in Bangkok because of the holiday today (start of Buddhist lent, I think) and this is indeed a treat for me!

Eversince I came to Bangkok, my boss, Lynne, buys the book first then gives it to me so I can keep it forever. Thus, my Harry Potter collection is complete.

And so for today, I am doing my best to finish a proposal. Then I will run later at the park. Then take a shower and snuggled up to bed with Harry.

I'm willing to stop my wedding preps for a day for Harry hahahah!

Food Trip

Recently, I enjoyed lunch with some of my officemates at Atrium Cafe and Lord Jim's. I had the time of my life eating all the foie gras, fresh salmon and oysters I want at Lord Jim's. While Lara and I indulged on the beef dish we imagined as MECHADO at Atrium Cafe. Yum yum!

170 days to go!

Finally, Joey and I had decided on the invitation lay-out with the help of some kind-hearted souls who voted which one they like. Next step is to send it to a real art director to do the necessary enhancements. I found a vey good paper supplier in Siam Center where I can buy the textured envelope. The chopsticks and paper umbrellas are easy to find at Chatuchak.

Sigh. It struck me that I have to get full names of all people included in the entourage. I need mom's help on the Principal Sponsors as I do not know most of them.

Joey is still undecided whether he wants to weat a suit or barong. I don't want to pressure him anymore. Anyway, barong or suit, I have decided that the rest of the male entourage wear barongs. It's easier for them to find that than the suit.

Bridal bouquet -- still haven't found a sample of the style I want. I have to go through my wedding magazines again. I also need to find references for the church and add-ons to the reception so Ferdie (my florist) can do the lay-out for me plus estimate the costing.

Catering -- Arrrgh! No word from my AE yet. Have to follow-up some of my pending requirements from her.

It looks like 170 days is still a long way to go but I feel like it's only a week to go!

Our Father in heaven...

PinQ Group Hot Group


The PinQuers! Posted by Picasa

The past weeks had been like hell for all of us. Soooo busy. But our efforts paid off when we won 4 out of 5 major pitches. Yahoooo! My team managed to goof around and look busy at the same time when we took these photos.

The PinQers: Jane the beauty; Ginganok the TALL girl; Sahanant in striped shirt; Wave in white and Tatchaphol on phone while typing at the same time.

Gin and I plan to try supermodelling as an alternative career. In case we don't hit our targets :p
