Timer Starts...now!

I just realized that in a year and about three weeks, we're getting married. Yes, our target date and hopefully official date is 08.09.10.

This is it. Time is ticking!! We have to be set for the marriage, and for that, we are setting out a plan. (Perennial planner in the hizo!)

As to any plan, there should be guidelines, here are some of ours:

#1: Don't forget to have fun while planning. It's meant to bring us closer together and build a deeper bond.

#2: Eyes on the prize. No matter what, we get our plans in action. Even if it's not to a tee, as long as we get to the end result, that's fine.

#3: It should be a unanimous decision. If we don't reach a decision, we park it for now. Then come back to it later.

#4: We don't discuss our future together if one is nagtatampo or mainit ang ulo (or gutom).

#5: We tackle all roadblocks together, one step at a time.

#6: We have to have an open communication. - all doubts, fears, ideals, vision, etc..

#7: Pray. pray. pray.

#8: bleeped. PG 13 content.

#9: Let the other person know if you'll sleep while you're discussing something important. (Especially if you have a 16 hour time difference).

#10: We're spending the rest of our lives together, what can be better than that?!!!

This is it. Timer starts now.

First Time We Met

April 24, 2007
Ivy's *post* Birthday.
We met at Roosevelt Hotel through your "cousin"Melon.
Went to Jimmy's Loft (?) after.
Back to Roosevelt.
You got my number.
Called me the following day to ask me out on a date. (Yeah, you like what you saw, right? Boo-ya! Hehe.)


That's me, 9 days after my 29th birthday, with maid of honor to be, Ivy and Best man to be Melon (slightly seen).


There's Mr. Pavia (sitting) with the rest of the other P's.
Hey, we were both wearing brown! How MFEO. Hahaha!

1st Date
April 28, 2007
Yamashiro Restaurant

..and the rest, as they say is history.

Before I Forget

July 8, 2009 or 07.08.09 was our target wedding date. (or to be quite frank, MY target wedding date). Hee.hee.

But several things came up. The economic crisis, a (be)loved one passed away, and my transfer to another country. It just wasn't the right timing. Now we have a new date set. It feels right. Yahoo! I'll hold on to it, lest it becomes udlot again. (Said like a perfect kolehiyala.)

It's a lingering thought (our wedding), and it made me reminiscent. How our relationship started and where are we now...you know, like a good brand framework. I-sama mo pa ang short term and long term plan plus where we want to be. Is it bad that you treat a relationship like a good marketing strategy? Haha. I better get me a different metaphor- stat.

Anywho, this blog site was supposed to be a surprise wedding present for Mr. Pavia. Writing about us (topline lang naman), and mostly embarassing stuff that I've been doing leading to the big day. Little did I know that the dinosaur evolved and learned how to google. OH WELL. So, Noah, in case I forget, read this blog to me, everyday til I remeber.
