Here's how difficult it is to get the three of them to take a decent pic together:

You vaguely see Davina's traumatised look here, and elliot trying to politely shrug off anna's arm.

Here elliot politely accepts anna's arm with a slightly resigned look, anna is grinning widely, and davina is distracted by her star. All three are clutching stars which anna demanded that I make the moment I got home.

...and despite desperate cries of 'one, two three!', anna is the only one who stands to attention.

So after xxx photos, this was the only decent one I had with them.

It's great being an auntie!

I've finally found my dream wedding gown! No words can describe how I felt when I stepped into Emanuel B Couture on monday, and tried on their gowns. They were mainly the sleek, minimalist type of gown I'd always wanted and dreamed of, with minimal or no cancans and fuss-free trains (even though I'd prefer no train at all). And the designer was so fantastic, she could tell from my stabbing at one single picture in her magazine what I liked and what I didn't. You won't believe how many studios out there stock up more on princessy gowns with pouffy skirts than these minimalist kinds. My cousin said she had never seen a more unhappier bride (till I got to Emanuel), making me wonder if I was really the problematic one afterall, not the studios. Essentially I had two main criterias; I'd like a fuss free gown that doesn't hinder my accessibility to the toilet, or that makes me trip and fall flat on my face while walking down the aisle.

So things are looking up! I will get to the toilet if I want to on my wedding day without worries hooray!

I had two shocks over the weekend.

First, I realised that as of Saturday, 2 Jan 2010, I'll be a merried (merried cos all these pricey wedding stuff will be over yesss) woman in 9 months. Just 9 short months more to get everything ready! Gah.

Also, as of today, Sunday 3 Jan, it's been a year since nathan shocked me with his proposal. Cos I never expected to get proposed to at age 22.

So anyway. One unpleasant thing marring this whole experience is that we are going to court (hurhur) over unsatisfaction with our bridal studio. More details once we get it all settled!

It's going to be my (our) busiest year ever, so if nathan or i approach you for help, please don't refuse ok. :)
