Tick-a-Tock!

JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUNE JULY AUG SEPT OCT

June has ended! Sweet Bananay!! Time is like running an F1 race now that I have more new responsibilities at work and have been trying hard to manage my time and all. Got to admit, being somewhat "free" at the office in the early months of 2013 was so bad for me, now that I have to make a lot of decisions and do a lot of brainstorming, I feel that my brain and eyes are on over drive! Everyday by 8pm I'm shutting down already!

Yesterday was July 1st! Gah! My pre-wedding photoshoot was initially scheduled to be done on June 24th, but due to the NASTY haze! I had no choice but to postpone, health is wealth.

Thank You Lord that the weather was nice, and the sun came out a little after 8am, we were late to arrive at the venue because of the epic Cheras jam and I left my bouquet at home! Overall it was a wonderful experience having our dear friend Nigel shooting our pre-wedding photos, along with his little wifey Kel Li's great guidance, many would know that she and I are kinda crazy over Pinterest and we got a lot of inspiration from there to prepare ourselves. By the time we finished with the photos, it was lunch time, we could see everyone was shutting down, especially Nigel because he has a really long weekend of shooting, I myself could barely walk straight due to hunger. So we decided to take a break and head out for lunch.

After a lovely meal and conversation session, we got back to the part slightly before 3pm to proceed with the video shoot, and thunder started rolling! We tried to rush a few scenes right before it started pouring, and wait out the storm under a shelter in the park. The rain finally stopped around 4.15pm and we rushed to finish up all the rest of the scenes before 5pm! And it was a wrap just slightly before 5.30pm. Really grateful for all those who were there to help out. My sis Jenn, Ryan's bestman Sim, our make-up artist Mel, and of course the man behind the lens, Nigel and his other half, Kel Li! All the aches and pains were totally worth it!

I'm excited to see the outcome of all the photos! Now back to work, I need to excel in my new job responsibilities and focus on my Wedding, now that the photoshoot and videoshoot is settled!
