Financial Update
I really should be in bed right now, but I just painted my nails with my fave nail colour: OPI’s I’m Not Really A Waitress. Coincidentally, this is the best-selling colour of red out there. This photo really doesn’t do it justice. Maybe once I clean my nails up I’ll take a photo to show…

Wedding Costs + Personal Update
Ok, for those 3 imaginary readers that may or may not visit my blog—I’m sorry for the lack of updates! There was a period there where I simultaneously got busier, had nothing to write about and just didn’t feel like writing at all. Hopefully now I can get back on the bandwagon. I don’t think…
