Pandora's Box

12 - Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue

12 - SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW, SOMETHING BORROWED, SOMETHING BLUE

The month flew by in a flurry of wedding gowns, cakes, food tastings, flower arrangements, meetings with organizers, invitation letters, phone calls, different churches, practices and rehearsals. It has been a very busy month for me and Stephen and of course, me being pregnant didn't help at all. My mood swings were literally killing the people around me. There were also times when Stephen and I would fight because of it, but I always make sure that by nighttime, we already made up.

This only made my feelings for him grow.

We also continued our visits to my doctor, as expected, and my doctor told me that my sunshine is perfectly normal and very healthy.

Stephen's book on the other hand is a hit. You can literally feel the waves of happiness radiating off him when he told me the news. Sure it was not Hunger Games/Divergent/Harry Potter famous, but the guy at the publishing house told him that it was pretty good, considering it was his very first time. Becasue of this, the publishing house secured him with a contract even though his second book is not even halfway finished. They told him that they wouldn't want him to find another publishing house, so they immediately offered him a contract.

The first time he recievied his check was also the very first tiime he took me to a five star restaurant. God, he is too sweet for his own good.

The amount he received was pretty big, so he didn't have any trouble in fixing and furnishing our newly bought house. It's almost done. The rooms are already fully furnished and the paint is done. We're just waiting for a few more furnitures to arrive and then it's ready for occupancy. It's absolutely perfect and I couldn't wait to move there.

A lot of things happened in the past month, and I can say that I'm truly grateful for Stephen's mother and sister. You could say that through my wedding, we've bonded and now, we're closer than ever and I couldn't be happier to finally have a family that cares. Stephen's mother and sister have been a really big help to me. I'm sure that without them, I wouldn't be able to finish a damn thing.

This month, I also came to a big and huge realization. I'm in love with Stephen. Truly, deeply and madly in love with Stephen. I know it's corny and cliche but that is the truth. I haven't said it to him yet but I know the right time will come.

And through it all, Stephen remained his sweet, caring, annoying and arrogant self. But I wouldn't want him in any other way.

And now, today is the big, big day. I can't explain how I exactly feel. It's a jungle in there. I feel nervous, happy, anxious, excited, I wanted to cry and at the same time, I'm worrying about every damn thing.

So you would probably understand if I have already managed to make a person cry, another to storm off and another one to quit in a span of two hours. I'm terrible, I know. But lucky for me, the girls are outside, comforting those that have been through my very irritating mood swings. So there's still plenty of people out there, preparing for my wedding.

I just decided to go and just stay in my room to avoid another shouting match with one of the staff.

The wedding will happen in 3 hours and I haven't even bathed yet. So I decided to start preparing for my wedding by taking a bath. After that, I called for Miranda and she's now currently doing my make up.

She went for the natural look. She just enhanced my fatures and when she was done, I looked beautiful and glowing.

Next she made my hair. It took her almost an hour to finish. I can't describe what she did. All I can tell you is that it's perfect.

Then she helped me into my gown and then she placed the flower crown with veil on top of my head. She added pins here and there so it wouldn't fall.
