Everything I thought about manifested

17 June 2012: Went to my parents' house to wish my dad on Father's day and earlier that day I had been craving the following: a nice cinnamon donut, jelly & custard and sushi. And my parents had exactly that! Jelly & Custard, cinnamon donuts. And Included with the sushi were veg spling lolls, ahem, spring rolls and chow mein. So yum! What a feast :)

Mermaid Barbie

17 June 2012: I want one!

Father's Day

17 June 2012: So it's Father's Day today and I went to Ricardo's house for Sunday lunch, a nice fire in the lounge with a movie under the blankies. Bliss :)

We create our own destiny

17 June 2012: Been going through some old Facebook photos and came across this one... if you look closely you will see that Ricardo commented on this photo and further down I said "Either way, I'm gonna have a pole in my bedroom one day. Wonder how my future husband would feel about that - whoever he is! LOL" ... and little did I know at this point that I would in fact have a pole in my bedroom, and that my future husband was one of the guys who commented on this page! How crazy is this? I am convinced, now more than ever, that we create our own destiny. We should pay attention to our thoughts and intentions because the Universe is listening. This is proof of that.

What a princess!

16 June 2012: Don't you just love this cute little dog?

I said YES to the The Dress!

16 June 2012: You know that magical feeling you get when you know you have found The Dress? Well, it happened! And I know it was meant to be because as I stepped out on the podium to show my mom and sister... they were like WOW! And Ricardo called at exactly that moment - it's like he know something special was happening <3 I truly felt like a princess and I'm so looking forward to my wedding day! Now, more than EVER!

Be treatwise!

Snore kit

13 June 2012: Waiting in line at the pharmacy I spot this snoring kit... wonder if it works?

Boiling bunny, such a bunny boiler grrr

13 June 2012: So my sweet and innocent hot water bottle got naughty. As I'm chilling watching Supernatural it burst open and I felt hot water all over my chest! I didn't freak out, luckily - I carefully unbuttoned the tight jacket it was under and got some advice (via facebook and BBM) to put a cold damp cloth on it (the irony - from warm bottle to cold cloth) and I was worried it might leave a mark, so I went to the pharmacy to get some Burnshield.

Bed time

05 June 2012: Who said you will die if you sleep with wet hair? I think those old wives were lying ~ they just told a white lie so we wouldn't stain their pillows while we are sleeping. Sneaky, I tell you!
