Yen Done

So we finally got some Yen! We kept putting it off when we should have gone to a bank and ordered some. Oh well. We went to an exchange counter and the weirdest thing happened. We were buying the yen when a homeless (?) man came up to us and asked what money the Yen was. He stared at it, said it looked cool, dropped three pennies in the slot for the lady behind the counter and walked off. So random. A lot of people find the odd people in Toronto to be bothersome but I find them really amusing.

Kitchen Stuff Plus Done

We went to Kitchen Stuff Plus today, which is one of the places we were registered at for the wedding. They're really great. They e-mailed us a lsit of items which had not been bought and we were able to buy anything on the lsit for 10% off. So we went in and stocked up. Some of the things we didn't need anymore either because they had already been given to us or we just didn't see the need for it in our lives at the moment. We also have limited storage. We're super excited about the items we got, and we probably would have bought them regardless of the 10% off since KSP has awesome prices. Anyway, our registry with them is now officially closed.

In a somewhat-related-but-not-so-much note, one of the items we bought was a digital bathroom scale and Jack could not wait to use it. He weighed himself soon after we brought it home and then once again before he got into the shower (aka when he was butt naked). Apparently having no clothes on made him 2lbs lighter. Wtf. What kind of lead undies is he wearing? =P

Wedding Done

Stupid firefox not letting me blog on here. I have to use crummy IE to make this post. I haven't been able to blog for a few days. Boo-urns!

So anyway, the wedding was last Sunday and it was great. Things went smoothly for the most part and things that did go wrong weren't that big of a deal. Plus everyone was really relaxed and easy going that the issues did not result in any freaking out. Because of this Jack and I had a great day. Nothing could get us down. The guests were amazing. Everyone was so happy for us, which made the day super awesome. Being surrounded by so much love feels great. Seriously, things that would have made me panic or get pissed off just rolled off my back. For instance: arriving a half hour later than I had planned to the ceremony location (good thing I planned to get there an hour before the ceremony =P), forgetting the guestbook for the ceremony, forgetting to print off the photo list, having the ceremony unexpectedly altered, having to stop twice while walking down the aisle to fix my sari, being declared as Mrs. Jack Hsu (no reason to change my fabulous name), having 45 minutes suddenly appear in our reception itinerary, etc. Nothing got us down, even the subtle hints that we should start going to church and start making babies...which I'm pretty sure was not intended to go hand-in-hand. Although I wonder how many babies have been conceived in a church.

Anyway, I plan on making a few more posts as there were quite a few things that I had wanted to post about just before the wedding but didn't get a chance to. As well, wedding stuff is far from over. We finished our gifts inventory and now we have to start on our thank you cards. Guess who is going to be doing those. >_>;;

To Do List - Less Than 1 Week To Go

We got a lot of things done this past weekend. We finished making/assembling/printing all our wedding favours, menus, seating chart, and name tags. We also received our wedding programs and table numbers. We then dropped all this off along with our centrepieces and engagement photo to our coordinator who will make sure everything gets set up on the day of the wedding. So glad we decided to hire someone for this because this is all taken care of now. Such a relief!

We still have lots to do though. Here is the breakdown.

Today: Run Errands
Tomorrow: Rehearsal & Rehearsal Dinner
Friday: Spa Appointment & Bachelorette Party
Saturday: Last-minute wedding stuff & Family BBQ
Sunday: Wedding
Monday: SLEEP!

Origami Folding Done

We just got our updated quote from our reception venue and it's less than the original quote. Woo hoo! So excited about that. Right now it looks like we're going to be under budget but I don't want to jinx it. =D

Secondly I have finally finished folding all our origami flowers. My rubber cement has officially died though so I'm just going to assemble them this weekend when we go back to my parents' house. We also have to assemble all our wedding favours, print off the name tags, menus and seating charts, and withdraw all the money to pay or remaining instalments with our vendors so that we can hand all that junk over to our wedding coordinator on Monday.

I just can't believe the wedding is just over a week away. Wow. Time is going by quickly!
