Healthier Living: Week 1

Mochi's Nutrisystem - Week 1
Starting weight = 155lbs

Day 1
Breakfast was NS Blueberry Muffins, Yoplait Pineapple Upside-down Cake yogurt, and a nectarine. The muffins were surprisingly good. A little dense, and not as moist as I would have liked, but overall pretty good. Lucky, cuz I ordered 7 of them. Had to drink water with the muffins to compensate for the lack of moisture. The yogurt wasn't as good as I'd hoped. Didn't have enough pineapple flavor. And the nectarine was about a week old, so it lacked a lot of flavor as well.

Lunch was NS Chicken Noodle Soup. Again, surprisingly good. Decent amount of flavor. Kinda skimped on the chicken, but oh well. If I really want to, I'd be allowed to add another ounce of chicken to it. I didn't pick out the celery and carrots like I normally would have, so I actually finished the entire thing. The noodles were a weird texture, but not horrible. I also planned to have carrots and cucumber along with it, but my cucumber had already spoiled (a week old, and I didn't wrap it properly). So I just had carrots. I already screwed up by have 2T of peanut butter with my carrots when I'm only allowed 1t. And then I had Chocolate Silk.

I missed my afternoon snack, so I just added it into dinner.

Dinner was NS Lemon Butter Chicken with Noodles. I had to pick out the mushrooms, which Yubo ate for me, but after that it was really good. Yubo and I both had Caesar salad (with light dressing)... which I actually shouldn't have had since I already used up my fat serving with the peanut butter. But now I know how not to screw up. =P Also had Crystal Light Peach Mango Green Tea to drink. Sure hope that's ok. I'll have to ask about that too. My sister just adds lemon to her water.

Dessert was NS Chocolate Cake, paired with the strawberry yogurt and strawberries I planned for afternoon snack. The choco cake was really quite yummy. Like the muffins, it was dense and a little dry, but the strawberries and yogurt really helped.

Was able to play Wii Fit for about 15 minutes instead of my usual 30. Didn't plan ahead well enough. But I'm glad I was able to do some.

It was a little weird because I spread out all of those meals, which had me eating something ever hour or so (except when I missed my snack, so I was super hungry by the time I was able to eat dinner). Also, I read that this food can make you really bloated and gassy. Yikes! Tell me about it. It happened as soon as I ate the muffins in the morning.

Day 2
Breakfast was NS Cinnamon Swirl Granola Bar. Not very flavorful, and very very dry. First thing I've eaten that I would say tastes like cardboard. Drank Choco Silk with it, so that helped a bit. I'll wait a bit, and finish off breakfast with the rest of the strawberries from last night.

Switching up my menu today. Had a dinner entree for lunch, and I'll have a lunch bar for dinner. So for "lunch" I had the NS Thick Crust Pizza. Thank you, Lord, it was super yummy. Tasted like a pizza bagel. Had some mixed berries Crystal Light, which was also good. Tried the NS Sour Cream & Onion Soy Chips.... very boo. Tasted like really really bland rice crackers. But I am ridiculously happy that the pizza was good.

I totally cheated on dinner today. Someone bought Jack in the Box and McDonald's for us at The Well tonight. So I had about 5 fries, a bite of a hamburger, and half a chicken sandwich. I did eat whatever lettuce and tomato was on it though, which I never do. I was really hungry though, and was sad that my Soy Chips were yucky because they were supposed to help tie me over. After The Well, I had the NS Chocolate Raspberry Bar. Not bad at all. Didn't love it, but I'd have no problem eating it again. Stopped by the store on the way home and bought a chicken Caesar salad to cover my veggie servings for the day. Yubo got himself a salad too.

Yubo's really proud of me for eating so many salads without putting up much of a fuss. He almost let me cheat more today because he was craving fries (seriously... after 11:00p he gets pregnant) instead of his usual pineapple cravings, but the McDonald's he went to was already closed. Lord, thank you for keeping us healthy.

Didn't get too much exercise today except for what little dancing I did at The Well. Still gotta plan better. Maybe work out in the morning or afternoon instead of trying to wait 'til evening.

Day 3
Cheating all day, mostly because I was very concerned about my eating schedule today. We were on worship today, which meant we were up at 6:30a. I would have only had a breakfast bar... no yogurt or fruit because I forgot to put the ice pack in the freezer. That would have left me with nothing to eat until 2:30p, which is when I got out of my massage appointment. Eight hours on just one breakfast bar? I think not. So Yubo allowed me to have a cheat day. I'll start back on my Nutrisystem food tomorrow.

I'm giving myself 2 cheat days a month, especially since the food supply only lasts 28 days anyway. But I'm going to try to make those cheat days as healthy as possible. Hopefully I'll still be able to keep it up in Hawaii.

Day 4
Had the NS Chocolate Chip Granola Bar for breakfast. Thankfully, it was pretty good. Doesn't compare to the Quaker Oats one I usually eat, but it's good enough that I don't regret ordering 7 of them. Also had a yogurt... I think it was the Yoplait Light Blueberry Harvest. Pretty good.

Lunch was a very inedible NS Noodles with Chicken and Vegetables. Even Yubo couldn't eat it. So after a bite of that, I had a chicken Caesar salad and 1/2 c of Egg Beaters. I really wanted a boiled egg, but it would've taken me too long to make and I had to get to work.

Dinner was NS Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, and it was actually rather good. The sauce was a touch too tangy for my tastes, but overall it was good to eat. Finished dinner with a peach, a salad and light Caesar dressing, and two plums.

Dessert was the NS Fudge Brownie. I don't think there was much difference between it and the Chocolate Cake. Dense, a little dry, but ok to eat.

Overall, I just missed lunch and a fruit serving for the day. Haven't been exercising though. =/

---

Day 5
I'm sick! I was already having issues with my throat last night. This morning I was coughing like crazy. Didn't get up until noon. I had the NS Nutrifrost Crunch cereal with vanilla Silk for breakfast. It was yummy. Would probably want to add my fruit serving to make it a bit more interesting and filling in the future.

NS Chicken Noodle Soup for lunch, hoping it might have the same benefits as regular chicken noodle soup for a sad sick person like me. Putting off my dairy/protein, fruit and veggie servings because the cough and sore throat make me not want to eat anything I have.

Dinner was NS Flatbread Pizza. Very yummy, although I think I like the Thick Crust Pizza better since it tastes like a pizza bagel. Yubo brought me some V8 that I used to fill up all my fruit and veggie servings. Also munched on some cucumbers with a little bit of light ranch dressing.

Had a very delicious NS Blueberry Lemon Bar for dessert. Yubo agreed that it was really really good. (I let him have a tiny bite.)

I still had three dairy/protein servings to fill, so I decided to cook up some beef. Yubo went out and bought some flank, and I cooked us cubed beef with a little bit of oyster sauce and lemon juice. I had 3 oz, and Yubo got to eat the rest.

No exercise again, especially due to being sick. ::sigh:: I miss playing Wii Fit.

---

Day 6
Ridiculously sick. Threw up a little bit, coughing hurts like crazy (but I managed not to cough most of the time), fever, and super dizzy. No Nutrisystem today. Had a couple spoons of condensed chicken noodle soup that I couldn't even taste. Slept a whole lot. Yubo bought me some bread. I had a slice and cucumber water (which I also couldn't taste). Slept a little more. Then Yubo made me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a glass of V8. I only had appetite enough to eat half of it. Took some Tylenol Cold and Oscillococcinum.

---

Day 7
Weighed myself today even though I'm actually supposed to weigh tomorrow. Oh well. I'll do it again tomorrow. Anyhow....

Weight = 150lbs!!

I already lost 5 pounds in one week. Could easily be due to not eating much yesterday, but I'm still surprised after cheating as much as I did. We'll see if this goes up tomorrow on my actual weigh day.

I haven't eaten anything yet today. Probably gonna stick to bread and water again since I'm still sick. No fever, but I'm still coughing and a bit dizzy. I'll probably eat the other half of my PB&J sandwich that Yubo lovingly made for me.

I wonder what I'll eat during my 9 days in Hawaii with Alex. She can probably help me stay healthy even if I don't bring my Nutrisystem stuff. I wanna be able to eat out with her. Then when we get home, I plan to have alligator on a stick at Bite of Seattle. So I'll start my Nutrisystem again after that.

Introducing the diet, and just trying to be healthier.

After an exorbitant amount of "loving and concerned" comments about my weight from my parents, and thinking that my mom should be a direct seller for Nutrisystem, I caved in and started a Nutrisystem diet. I've also requested that Yubo start being healthier alongside me so I don't feel so bad about not being able to eat real food.

I ordered my first month the Tuesday we got back from Cali. My food arrived Thursday afternoon (which threw my sister and mom into an outrage because they didn't receive their food until a week after they ordered), and I started Friday.

After this post, I'll talk about the food I'm eating and exercise, and how well Yubo's doing in supporting me and living his own healthier lifestyle. Probably do it by week, so one entry will be updated several times that week.

Well... here we go.

California Trip & 1st Wedding Meeting.

Yubo and I went down to California, June 17-22, specifically to find a church and to meet with our parents to talk about wedding stuff. Since we had some time, we hung out at Disneyland and DCA a few times as well. ^_^ Yubo's mom also helped me with a dance thing for church.

Overall, it was a good trip. The frustrating parts for me were just scheduling and having to deal with my parents continuously encouraging me to lose weight. It was almost as if they didn't realize that they already said something about it the day before. My mom mentioned Nutrisystem at least once every day. And my dad kept wondering why I didn't want to spend time with him. (Reason is cuz all we know how to do with each other is eat, and then he comments on how much I'm eating.) I felt horrible because I do miss my parents, but I wish they would let the weight go once in a while and let me be their daughter instead of a number on a scale.

Thursday was spent at the dance studio working on my little project, and watching Ei-chan's coaching. We went to dinner at a Mediterranean place called The Olive Pit. The food was pretty good. I learned that I actually don't like hummus as much as I thought I did.

On Friday, Yubo's mom signed Yubo and me in to Disneyland. The point was because we haven't been in so long, and I've never been to California Adventure. Unfortunately, we didn't know that it was grad night. We had time enough to walk all around DCA and ride Jungle Cruise and Pirates before everything closed. Had a nice dinner at Jazz Kitchen, then went home.

I had been trying to schedule a dinner meeting with everyone (both sets of parents and my sister) to discuss wedding stuff. It started off on Thursday night, but then Mr. Crumly said he wanted to watch Ei-chan's coaching. Friday didn't work for my sister (Thursday was perfect for her). So we pushed it to Saturday at 7:00p. Then, since it was Saturday, my sister needed it to be earlier to give her enough time to prepare for things on Sunday. So it moved to 6:00p, and finally settled on 5:00p.

That also moved around when we were going to look at churches. I wanted to keep the church shopping and dinner on the same day so there wasn't so much driving back and forth for the Crumlys.

On Saturday morning the Crumlys, Akemi and I visited the three churches I had looked up: Evergreen Baptist L.A., Chinese Evangelical Free Church, and Mission Valley Free Methodist. I wanted a church that is easy to get to, and is close to my parents' house and/or the reception restaurant. Had dim sum breakfast at Capital Seafood (a.k.a. 828 on Atlantic and Garvey, where the reception is going to be) between the first and second churches.

Evergreen was really nice. It was the only church of the three that I was able to talk to a person. This was the one that Pastor Wayne suggested. I especially like it because it's only about 5 minutes away from my parents house (so in case my parents are moved to start attending church someday, they will be familiar with one close by...... muahahaha). Anyway, the people were really friendly and helpful. The sanctuary was really pretty. There is a really neat water fountain thing in front, and bamboo grows right outside the entrance to the sanctuary. There's a neat little grassy area at the end of the building that would be good for pictures. It had its own parking lot, and borrows from Don Bosco Tech for overflow. The actual church is set back away from the street, so it's nice and quiet.

I really liked the architecture of the Chinese Evangelical. Really modern, sleek, and artsy. It was also really pretty inside. The trouble was difficult parking, lots of stairs, and awkward access to the sanctuary. It was also right on Atlantic, so there was a lot of street noise.

I already knew I wouldn't be up for the Mission Valley church, but we went to look anyway since we had so much time left over. It's the sister church to Anaheim Free Methodist, which is where the Crumlys go. The main reason why I didn't go for it even before seeing it was that it was a little farther than the other two I had found, and I didn't want Spanish/Mexican architecture. The whole theme to the wedding is combining our cultures, and that kind of architecture just doesn't fit. Actually seeing the place confirmed that I didn't want it. The doors to the sanctuary had carvings of a weird looking person with lambs. Pretty easy to hide by just keeping the doors open. But the sanctuary was very small compared to the others, and very cramped. The color scheme didn't help to open up the room. All the pews were a dark red.... the whole room was dark and made the room seem even smaller. The only thing it really had going for it was the sun shining through glass with a dove design at the top of the wall facing the entrance. With the lights out, it was really beautiful.

By this time, it was only about 2:00p. With 3 hours to kill, we decided to just drive around a look for anything else just to see other options. Nothing fabulous to report here except for Lake St Church in Pasadena. Super huge and gorgeous, but they only marry members of the church. We also stopped by Westminster Presbyterian, or whatever, in Pasadena. It was this huge gothic church. We went to feed Mrs. Crumly's curiosity, even though we obviously weren't going to consider it. We were able to look inside because they were preparing for a wedding that day. We stayed long enough to start getting weird looks from one of the mothers, wondering who we belonged to.

We finally got to my parents' house for dinner. My dad got some fillet mignon that my mom made lok lak out of. Super yummy. My dad also went out and got salmon sashimi. Apparently, that was really good as well. Dinner was fun and enjoyed by all.

Then we got to the discussion. We were able to talk about a lot of things. Figured out in what order things need to happen, and who would be in charge of what. I took notes and kept the discussion moving, trying to keep us from too many tangents (as the Crumlys are very prone to birdwalking). My dad kind of ruined my night by asking Yubo to make sure I lose weight. I almost started crying at the table, but managed to keep myself composed for the most part. I redirected the conversation to talking about invitations and what other paper things we'd need to get printed. Thankfully, everyone else at the table understood my situation, so they happily supported my segue.

We finally got to a point where there was nothing else we could talk about before getting other things finalized. After all the church shopping, we had decided on Evergreen Baptist, so Akemi and I were going to stop by on Sunday to see if we could set up the reservation. Unfortunately, both wedding coordinators were unavailable, but the lady I had been e-mailing said she'd let me know by the end of this week if it'll work. I really pray it does.

The rest of Sunday, Akemi and I went to Anaheim Free Methodist to meet up with the Crumlys. Even though lunch was great, it took forever. There was some miscommunication, but once we got past that, we had a good time. We were able to ask Yubo's little cousins if they could draw our manga for us, so now we just need to get them some sort of script. The food was good. The company was good. But Akemi and I were anxious to get going to Disneyland again to make up for the sad visit on Friday.

After lunch Yubo, Akemi and I finally got to Disneyland. We started off in DCA so I could actually experience some of the rides there. Hopped over to Disneyland for a few more rides before seeing the Electrical Parade and riding Soaring Over California, or whatever it's called. I had a really great time, even though my feet were absolutely killing me. Turned out I got blisters from all the walking. Ended the night with dinner at Rainforest Cafe, where I finally found food that I like there. Yay!

I made a decision that night that I was determined to eat every horribly unhealthy favorite food that I could before starting Nutrisystem. So I really wanted Weinerschnitzel before we left. I arranged to have Yubo's parents take us to the airport because my mom wouldn't've let me eat what I wanted. Besides, I needed to pack some stuff in the suitcase anyhow, so it worked out better in the end. Enjoyed Weinerschitzel with the Crumlys. Got to the airport with plenty of time to spare. It was a great way to end the trip.

Show me how to love like you have loved me.

There are times when I fight how lucky I am to have someone like Yubo love me as much as he does. I fight it because I don't deserve it, even though it's not up to me to decide who he loves. Too many times do I think he'd be so much better of with someone else instead of just accepting him as the gift he is.

Briefly, I got myself into quite a mess. Because I haven't been treating my business like a business, I've become quite in debt and have missed some payments. I've never been so ashamed. Why does this shame me more than, say, how many guys I've slept with? Because this is the final proof of how much I've let myself go.

But Yubo doesn't love me any less for such a mistake. He might be quite disappointed in me, but bless his heart for not really showing it. I think I'd die if he did. He kept reassuring me that it was ok, that we can handle it, that everyone makes mistakes... that he forgives me and still loves me.

I feel horrible for dragging him into my mess to help me get out, but I know I can't do it alone. I'm bothered that my problem becomes our problem. I wish I could disappear so he wouldn't have to deal with such a burden.

I told him a few nights ago that I felt a wall being built between us. He was surprised by that. I said maybe it's just me... because it's probably me that's building the wall. I push him away because I get so disgusted with myself. Why would he want to dirty himself and stay with me? Then I think... why did God come and die for us sinners before we even knew Him? The hardest thing for me is to love myself the way God and Yubo love me. I struggle to let this part of me go. I almost enjoy wallowing in my pain. It's proof to me that I'm worthless. But I know that's the enemy talking. As a horrible analogy (simile? metaphor?), I've kept myself in the dark for so long that I'm still adjusting to the light. It's like how I keep wanting sun during winter, and when it finally comes I complain that it's too bright and too hot. =P

But I'm working on it, and thank God that I have Yubo here by my side. We have to make some mistakes in order to learn from them. So Yubo's going to help me figure up a plan on how to get these payments made and get me back in good standing with my credit. I need to figure out how to reduce my inventory (probably a 50% sale) and get to something more manageable.

::sigh:: We'll get through this.

Passing fancies.

I'm having a bit of an issue with how little Yubo is contributing to this blog. On top of that, we decided to try out this WeddingTracker website, but he would rather watch CSI episodes and the first Matrix movie than help me design and fill out this website.

He understands that I can't help but see this blog and website as more tangible proof of how much he cares about us and our relationship and the wedding and blah blah blah. However, he can't seem to keep himself from being too tired to do things with me, which in turn makes me insecure about how invested he really is.

I know. That's a whole lot of typical cliché crap. And I hate that I feel that way, but I can't ignore that I do.

He's aware of all this; I know he is. But it seems like there's something in him that just makes him refuse to do anything about it. I find myself becoming a nag, and I don't want that because I know that will make him not want to do something more. (I sure hope that sentence makes sense.)

I think I mentioned this before that he's always so full of ideas and inspiration. He's the dreamer in the relationship. But because of that, he never really sees anything through. Another idea will distract him from the first. I just want to figure out a way to help keep him motivated enough to actually stick to and complete a project.

He told me once that it's so difficult for him to bounce ideas off me. Rarely do I take the time to indulge in an idea if I don't think it'll come to fruition. The only things like that that I return to are really dumb "brilliant invention" jokes, like a salt shaker at the front of a car to help deice the road. Otherwise, I find it a waste of time to let my imagination run wild. I like being creative within boundaries and limitations. I like knowing how far I can go because it helps me focus.

Yubo despises boundaries and limitations. He likes to think of all possibilities, and then narrow it down. So when he starts going off on an idea with me, I try to figure out the details to see if it will really work. Oftentimes, I end up bursting his bubble. He gets so excited about things, and so he's come to fear that talking to me will make him realize that the thing he's so excited about won't work. He likes to keep himself in that dreaming state for as long as possible before I grab his leg and slam him down into reality. It makes me feel horrible. I don't like doing that to him. This is yet another area where we really need to learn how to compromise and work to balance each other.

Anyway, what I'm getting at is he went along with these ideas of the blog and the website. He seemed excited about it, but won't commit to really making it reality. So of course I take it that 10million steps further in my mind and think that he's super excited at the idea of us getting married... so what happens when the day arrives for it to become reality?

He doesn't do much to calm these insecurities of mine. I understand the fear of failure that most men experience. I have that same fear almost at the level of men. It's not like I'm trying to set him up to expose any inadequacies, but I need to see him trying. And I try to reassure him that I don't really expect him to get it right the first time.... but just because there may be some mistakes in the first couple of tries, I want him to keep trying. Sometimes he gives up too easily, and I guess I'm scared that one of these days he'll give up on me... and on us. He says he'd fight for me, but I have yet to believe him.

I need to know that I'm real to him, and that our relationship and our upcoming marriage isn't just a good idea in his head. When I talk to him about stuff like this, it seems to paralyze him. He doesn't know what to think or do. It almost makes me feel bad about wanting to marry him. Sometimes I feel like I'm taking his life away, that he'd be so much better off and happier as a real bachelor. He's never had that... living single in his own bachelor pad, having the guys over for a couple beers to watch a fight or sports or play video games, a place all to himself where he can relax and do whatever he wants. It makes me think that maybe I should move out for real until the wedding. Then it's my own fear that keeps me here at home.

::sigh:: What a mess we are.

Sorry for what I think was a great big tangent. I don't think that was what I was originally planning to write about. =P

Getting into shape.

I've been talking to Yubo about me getting a personal trainer to help me get in shape for the wedding, and for my overall health in general.

Instead, we ended up getting both Wii Fit and EA Sports Active. I tried Wii Fit on my own. The beginner level is already hard for me. =/ Yeesh. I never realized that it was so difficult to balance. @.@;; But the games are fun. I really like hula hooping. I had Batman and Chuck Norris (some of the Mii's we have) tossing more hula hoops at me.

We just finished a session on Active. Man! That thing killed me!! But it's cool that we can use this to work out together. It really helps having him there alongside me even though he doesn't really need the workout himself.

Also, our Magic Bullet came today. I already blended up some frozen strawberries with vanilla Silk and agave nectar. It wasn't as yummy as I'd hoped because the strawberries already lost a lot of flavor being frozen since last season. After dinner, we stopped by QFC to get more stuff for me to blend. I made fresh strawberries with raspberries, cucumber, vanilla yogurt, vanilla Silk, and some agave nectar. After making them, I stuck the cups in the fridge to chill while we worked out. Really yummy, and a great way to end the night.

We've got lots of other fruits and veggies for me to blend together. I'm actually really excited to try out more stuff. ^_^ We'll see how long this excitement lasts. =P

Dress. Website. Soundtrack.

Dress
A girl posted on a message board on Weddingbook (on Facebook) that she was going to get her dress custom-made for a few reasons, one being that she has scoliosis. I thought that was genius. Because of my scoliosis, clothes often just don't fit well and aren't as flattering as they would be on a normal person. I've fussed many times with uneven hemlines and fabric twisting awkwardly on my torso making side seams warp. I remember one of my favorite tanks; it was tight-fitting (back when I didn't worry about strange bulges), but the material stretched to conform my body. Eventually, the whole garment was simply twisted as it hung on a hanger. Also, having a shorter torso than most (I think) and a sway back causes fabric to bunch up awkwardly where it normally wouldn't on other bodies.

Considering these frustrations and how it's every girl's dream to look absolutely fabulous and stunning on her big day, I'm really considering getting a dress custom-made.

I was originally thinking that I'd probably just rent some dresses for the big day (I would need a white gown and a dress for the reception). Problem with that is the availability of dresses is always changing, and the selection can be quite limited. Since it's so difficult to find anything that really works well with my body, I'm not sure if I want the stress that will likely come with all that. So something to discuss with my mom.

Website
Two good friends of ours from church, Malia and Jeff, got engaged soon after we did our Chinese engagement. They're getting married in June in Hawaii. They set up a website to give guests all sorts of information about the wedding and other events (showers, bachelor/ette parties, etc). Also allows guests to RSVP online, and has all sorts of other features too. They went through WeddingTracker.com, where the package is $60 for a year. (Although I guess there's a promotion to get 50% off.)

It sounds like a great idea. Obviously we have the Weddingbook on Facebook, but that seems to only be open to other Facebook users. I found something similar on eWedding.com, but to get all those same features would be about the same price but only for 6 months. So I guess if that promo code still works, that might be the way to go.

I like the idea of having all the necessary information easily accessible on a website. I also like the online RSVP. Saves the cost of stamps and wasted paper. Something to talk to Yubo about. He'll probably go for it, since I'll be the one maintaining it. I mean... I squeezed out that initial blog post from him, but I'm not sure if he's ever going to write another entry. =/

Soundtrack
The thought of creating our wedding soundtrack is exciting to me. It's like putting music to a movie (not that I really have any experience with that). I know I mentioned something similar as an idea for a wedding favor, but I think this would really just be for us. It'd be great to have this CD compilation of all the music we use on our day, and so far it's fun looking for music.

I'm having to research to see when music would really be needed. I figured it was just the walking down the aisle and leaving the church, and then whatever music at the reception. Apparently there's quite a bit more to it, although I know it's not mandatory or anything like that.

But anyway, we're already collecting some good songs. One that I recently heard on the radio was actually really fitting for us, but not one we'd use as our first dance song (and I think the first dance song really will be limited to what our friends write). The song is "You Dance" by eastmountainsouth. It's such a pretty song, and I'm thinking I'd like to have it playing as our processional song.

I promised Aki that I would try my best to have the String Quartet version of "Sugar, We're Going Down". I think I'd like to hear it as people are arriving at the church and mingling. Seems like that's where it'd fit the best.

Hmm... I guess that's really all I have for this update. So now I'm just waiting for Yubo to get home cuz we wanted to go to GameStop today.
