89 days to the wedding...

1989 was a fantabulous year, not only because I was born but also because of these 3 amazing facts:

1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles became an overnight sensation. 
2. Record of the Year: "Don't Worry Be Happy," Bobby McFerrin
3. Zimbabwe gained independence

Over 23 years ago when I made my first appearance on this earth I was stress free which is a complete contrast to my life now! Preparation for a wedding is not a joke. It can literally drain you of your humanity. Today I was called many things...spoilt, bridezilla and selfish to name a few... 

In my opinion, being indecisive is not attractive. Therefore, today I was determined to make my feelings clear on all aspects of the wedding I was unsure about and I feel so much better! Unfortunately, some people will not be pleased with the decisions I've made but as a wise woman once told me "you can never please everyone so you may aswell please yourself".

My bridesmaids are not over the moon with the dress I chose for them BUT every time I think about how they will look on the day - it makes me smile. The way I see it, it's an incentive to go to the gym, generally stop eating and spend a couple of months in an anorexics shoes. 

Another executive decision I made today was to give waxing a try so I know what it will feel like, if I will have an allergic reaction etc. My 1st bff Priya who I've known for over 16 years came to do the honors:






I thought Prince would have been more supportive:


It was a horrible experience and I am going to have to go through this again for the wedding because BEAUTY IS PAIN.
