Wedding Planner Search: is it Over?

I have been MIA for a couple weeks because I started my second clinical rotation. The hours are killing me but hopefully my body is getting used to being up at 5 in the morning.
On the wedding tip: I emailed a wedding planner that I had been interested in a few months ago and we had a phone conversation earlier this afternoon. Compared to other Wedding planners, I really like her so hopefully it works out after I see her estimated price quote. I have been fighting the idea of having a wedding planner but I really need one. The reality is really hitting me that our wedding is seven months away and I have so much to do. I feel a tad overwhelmed on the wedding front in addition to all the other stuff I have to do before I officially finish my academics in Dec.
I am determined to get right back into wedding planning again. Why do I suddenly feel tired again?
My parents are still trying to squeeze more people out of the guest list and it is soo not happening. I'm trying to streamline my personal guest list so they can have a few more people but at the same time I don't want to. I would like my close friends to be at my wedding as well, so I don't want to budge too much.
Happy Sunday!

Reception venue Pain

So...school is a drag, I think one of my professors hates me, and I've found my dream venue. I found this reception site that I abolutely love via computer. The price is fabulous and the FI approves it. The downside is that the damn venue people DO NOT pick up their phone or return messages. No lie, I have called them at least five times and left messages three times. I actually made human conatact on Friday but my damn cell was losing reception. The lady hung up on me and when I called back IMMEDIATELY after, she did not pick up. It could have been due to the fact that it was close to four in the afternoon and she was probably about to get off, but do I look like I care?

I'm sure their lack of availability should be a red flag for me, but all I want is to visit their venue and see if I really and truly love it. So I'm going to try again tomorrow during my break in between classes.

I'm so tired of school. I'm trying to be positive but I am literally tired. My plans for a relaxing weekend vanished in thin air so I am starting this week on very low gas. Plus the FI is sick and he's never sick, so hopefully I won't be sick either. Because I have absolutely no tolerance for that. And i'm tryin not miss any classes.

School is dragging me down man Part 2

When I wrote this I did not realize it would be a part two but thats life I guess. School is still dragging me down. I'm tired all the time and I miss spending time with my baby. My schedule is all over the place but whatever. I finally bought some books today and I got a lap top!!! I am so excited about that, its been a long time coming. I really have no business writing today because I have absolutely nothing interesting to say, but I had to test drive the lap top.

So the FI and I were downtown and we walked into this huge cathedral. It was beautiful inside and very intimidating. We brainstormed about the possibility of having a "church wedding". He was more against it than I was but he likes the idea of getting married in a cathedral. I got excited because that meant I could invite more people to the actual wedding. But after careful thought, we realized that this would mean that the church would be divided into two parts: the haves and the haves not.
Some would have the reception card and some would not. It might work but knowing my culture, people would bombard my mother with phone calls demanding entrance to the reception or bombard the reception demanding to be granted entrance. Either way people's feelings will be hurt. Haha. So we thought the best plan of action would be to simply invite people who would also be attending the reception also. It would essentially be a "closed wedding", but we realize that there will be a few crashers. We are keeping the church wedding in mind.

So we'll see. Once the budget is set and I get serious about finding the venue, we can start on the guest list. That is the part that scares me the most.

School is draggin me down man.

Started school this week and as usual I am not prepared to jump back into the uber stressful life of reading expensive textbooks just to vomit it all back at the professor in the form of an exam. Ok so I'm being a tad overdramatic. I have been tired all day due to my usual routine of sleeping until my head starts to hurt over the winter break. Being my last semester, I did not think I would have to do that much work. Wrong, this semester is just as hard if not more than the previous ones. Sucks to be me. Looking on the bright side, this is my last semester before I do clinicals.

Another girl got engaged today and we spent our break comparing notes on wedding plans. Am I a dork or what? It was nice to have someone to talk about with, someone who was undergoing the same things as I. I'm in the library wasting time. Its 1 pm and my next class isnt until 5:15. Being as its the first week of classes, I dont have that much work to occupy myself.

Ok i bored myself and you enough. Good bye.
