apartment... check...

last nite, we just closed on our apartment! we'll be living at harbor heights in fortress hill, which is a cool 5 min walk to the park! :) we'll likely get our keys on thursday, and then, we officially have a new home... woohoo... so that takes one big tick off the to-do list!

the rest of my list: (compiled by the lovely linnet)

1) arrange honeymoon (in maldives?) w/elim tourism
2) fill/design wedding ceremony program
3) find a printer to print program
4) contact conrad for wine tasting
5) call annie at conrad for deco & meal cards
6) florist
7) apartment closing
8) helpers for wedding!!!
9) write vows
10) guestlist confirmations w/ma-friends group
11) sofa shopping --> ALMOST THERE!!!!!!!!!!!
12) bed frame shopping --> SOOOO CLOSE TO BUYING IT!!!!
13) tv/washer/dryer/dining table --> i think this is almost done
14) utilities for apartment --> mostly being handled by our agent
15) give pics to tony photography for slideshow
16) get tux
17) reception table deco
18) pack up my house
19) follow up on un-RSVP'd invites!
20) tell my fiancee how awesome she is!

yah yah yah... i just pushed out the list to make it look like i got a ton to do. in actuality, my 'vacation' has been golf and basketball... some sleep... hehehe

only 38 more days to go! it's getting to the point where there's so much creative stuff to do - programs, deco, flowers... i'm so lost. i'm so left-brained, so when i'm asked to think of design stuff - i'm like spending an inordinate amount of processing power just trying to visualize the conrad reception and ballroom areas! aaarrrgghhhh!!!!! buuuuttt - it's a good thing lin has such artistic creativity! heheh... ok - so that's a pretty lame excuse. i try my best... no regrets...

it's already wednesday, so that means i only got 3 more weekdays off, then a weekend, then i start my job. so weird being in this job moving position. i'm enjoying not having responsibility - especially being free to roam the busy central streets in jeans and t-shirt and my cons. it's nice not to be in the middle of the rat-race for once, but yet, be in the midst of them. i felt like an outsider looking into the lives of all the people in central making millions of bux a year, w/out a concern for anything other than.... well... making millions of bux a year... wat a sad state :(

hillsong united coming to HK on AUG 4th! it's being hosted by the vine, and best of all, it's FREE!!!! here the venue info:

WHO: hillsong united...
WHAT: ....LIVE! in HONG KONG!
WHERE: Hong Kong Poly Univ. Jockey Club Auditorium, Hung Hum, Kowloon
WHEN: Thursday, aug. 4, 2005 @ 7pm doors will OPEN

this means... BE THERE BY THEN!!! there is limited capacity and the vine expects a FULL turnout! it's going to be awesome, to be blessed to share an evening of worship with the united band. AND, there will be a message (bilingual!) by phil dooley, hillsong youth pastor! so get there early to make sure u get a seat!

anyway - i'm done plugging. oh yeah... one more plug. download THIS!!!. tom read, worship pastor/leader of the vine, continues to pump out inspirational worship songs. in fact, one user/downloader had rated tom as asia's best worship songwriter and leader. after listening to some of his songs via download from this link, one will quickly come to understand why!

well... wednesday... that means golf. i'm off to the links

my last rant against the crazy dentist... this guy is like - if pain persists... then we'll do a root canal! i'm so pissed! my tooth hurts... no insurance till next week... so that means chewing like a #*()$@()$@# horse till then! ugh... praise GOD tho - cuz i've had such a great week so far! so wat's a li'l discomfort!
