Christmas Story

Ams, December 17, 2008 at 3:26 PM

Time to spruce this blog up with a story! =D

The first Christmas Jack and I had together was just a month after we started dating. I had gotten him a couple of Japanese CDs (I think Gackt and BoA) and I put them in an empty granola bar box and wrapped them. I gave them to him after one of our "study" dates (it was exam time) but he opened them when he got back. He had thanked me that night when he got them as well as when he opened them at home. A few days later though he messaged me on msn and started thanking me again. I asked him why he was thanking me again and he told me that when he opened it he thought I had given him granola bars and only opened the box a few minutes ago because he wanted a snack. What a dweeb. Who thinks that giving a box of granola bars is an appropriate Christmas gift? Especially from a girlfriend to a boyfriend. =P

Hold Up

Ams, November 13, 2008 at 3:14 PM

I'm putting a hold on wedding planning because this is SUPPOSED to be a two-person project. I don't care what bullshit people say about how it's the bride's job to plan and the groom gets to sit back. Fuck that. This is the year 2008 and if this is what marriage is STILL like then I'd rather not have it. I'm better off single than letting anyone get a free ride off my back. I am not a stupid woman who needs a man to fulfill my life nor am I a woman who has been planning her wedding all her life. Seriously, I would rather be doing many other things than planning this wedding and it doesn't help that the person who is supposed to be pulling his weight is using excuses to make me do it. Well the buck stops here Jack.

I don't even know why I'm bothering posting this on here since he probably won't read this. Maybe it's to let all of you know that our relationship isn't peachy clean like everyone thinks it is.

P.S. It's our 5-year anniversary on Saturday and for some reason, we always aren't in the best place right before our anniversaries...or our birthdays. What's up with that?

Let Them NOT Eat Cake

Ams, August 6, 2008 at 11:16 AM

Things I learned about wedding cakes:

  1. The average price for a three tier wedding cake is $500. No thanks.
  2. Wedding cakes aren't fresh - they make them about a week before the actual wedding. Might as well serve stale bread.
  3. Many people only have one layer of their multi-layer cake as real cake and the rest is styrofoam decorated as real cake to cut down costs. FAKE! What's wrong with a flatsheet cake?
  4. Most reception hall kitchens and caterers charge a cake-cutting fee (about $1-$2 a slice). Seriously? That's not even a skill!
  5. The tradition of freezing the top layer of your wedding cake and eating it on a special anniversary only works for traditional fruitcake wedding cakes. The modern cakes taste like frostbitten feet. Dutty yo!

Note: We have not given up on the wedding cake yet. We are still looking at other options.
