sheeps count too!

we've finally bought our bed! say hi to serta massachusetts!   initially, we were thinking of starting basic and getting a cheaper mattress since we have friends who can help us get dunloppillo mattress at staff rate. but thanks to the pre-christmas sales that made serta mattresses so affordable at 1/2 price + 10% discount! it's too good a bargain to miss, so we decided to spend a little bit more for a more comfortable mattress that is used by the hotels. I guess buying a bed...

6.5 hours of struggles

after waiting anxiously for three weeks, our photos are finally ready for selection! we took a total of three hundred and fifty nine photos! gosh, i didn't even realized that we took that many and i guess this explains why my cheeks hurts. we were stuck at the bridal shop from 12:30pm to 7:00pm a total of six and a half hours and we surrendered with seventy seven photos. yes, 'surrendered' because we were both brain dead by then and didn't really want to squeeze our brain juice to cut down...
