Wedding Stuff - Update 1

I'm more relieved now. As my big day is getting closer, many people around me has been asking various questions like how's preparation, everything booked/set, ready to be Mrs Mok, how is this how is that and more. All sort of before wedding questions all thrown to me, I thought I'm going to transform into a BRIDEZELLA. But really really thank God that He is always faithful. God has been providing both William and I with many blessings. He carry us through all the ups and downs of life. Conflicts, argument and differences are made easy by HIM. When I really look back, I feel so silly for getting nervous and frustrated over many things. Sorry that I am not faithful and relax enough to trust that You are always in control.

With the help of our bridal party, best friends and my beloved husband-to-be, I(we) manage to get things moving a little bit quicker this month. Our target was to get everything done by end of July and enjoy our August (last official month of being free-will individual) by doing simple things but kinda fail now. Most of the major decision has been made and in-line now.

We got our invitation cards printed, prewedding album ready to publish to the whole world to see our plastic looks, bridesmaid dresses ordered, wedding favors purchased, design ideas in mind, and some minor stuff. Current pending now are caterer, cakes and important heads for various department. Target to get it done by 1st week of August. 

To be continue...

Ministry

I think it is about time to start praying again for Big Daddy to either just drag and drop me in a ministry or He sent someone to pull me in to a ministry so I can start serving again or maybe I should just sign myself into one ministry and start from there. I feel dryness in my walk with Him whenever I'm reminded that I'm not using my gifts from Him. I'm keeping it inside a nice invisible box since I stop serving at YF and Kid's Kingdom.

I found myself misses YF even more now. Whenever I see him share about his youths, pray and go for activities one after another, I really feel like tagging along or go back to serve in YF. I miss all my grown up youths (now most of them are leaders/helpers). Just yesterday, due to one issue with his youth, besides giving my own point of view, I actually had a sleepless night. All those 5W & 1H just keep buzzing me whole night even when I'm asleep. It just haunt me like how programming codes used to haunt me :P 

So, reminder to self : Pray Cherie Pray

Love,
Rie

The day I say "I DO"

Let's keep it short and simple. If you think you need more mini minor details, come and ask me personally :)

As per our normal date nights, we will block our schedule to go for a simple activities together. Couple time :D

He arrived with his Kuma-kuma and I allowed him in. He dressed up pretty well that night. I hid because I felt like I overly dressed. Hehe... Drive out and just stuff our stomachs with good food. The atmosphere around us was very noisy. A company is having their annual dinner there but we enjoyed our steak, seafood and fries despite the cheering and noise from the people around us. Talking about the restaurant, I think I lost my Pandora bracelet there :( The bracelet that my darling won for me at The Curve. Pretty sad when I'm reminded how clumsy I am to loose it...

After the dinner, he drove back to my house, we relaxed and talked at the living hall.
Half way talking, he starts to execute his proposal plan...

Wi : Cherie, there's a wedding invitation for u.
Me : Izzit? Who's wedding?
Wi : U guess :)
Me : (Started giving names of unmarried couples in the church)
(Wi - Shook his head)
Wi : All wrong. Here, check out for yourself.
After checking it out
(Me - Stare at him with a unbelief look; Wi - Still kneeling in proposing position while holding a red box with a blue ring inside.)
Blah blah blah for quite some time and finally a YES from me.
(Reliefwi put the blue ring on his bride-to-be, then shared a tight hug. Tears of joy for me :P)


How do I get my shining ring? Secret until you ask. What else did he do? It is a secret too.... Hahaha....

Yes peeps, I'm engaged with William Mok :) Wedding bells ringing soon. Wait for more updates from Facebook, Twitter, Email, Chatz or here.

Bride to be,
