It's been a long time since I've even thought about writing a blog post. I had my uni exam this week and I cannot even begin to tell you how pleased I am that this semester is over. I won't even go into how bad the exam was (exacerbated by a sinus infection that left me comatose for 72 hours), because I am concentrating on the positives rather than the negatives for the next 7 weeks (until uni commences again).
It's very strange having all this free time. I have this niggling thought that I should probably be doing something... but thankfully the only thing to think about is my friend Hannah's wedding next weekend (wooo!!). This is the first time being a bridesmaid and I am loving it! I get to be involved in all the minor and major details, and get to be there with Hannah in the lead up. It is going to be so exciting. There is even a run sheet!!!!!! If you know me, a run sheet is pure bliss.
Hannah is also one of my bridesmaids for our wedding, so it will be fun when roles are reversed next March!
So to update you on our wedding, we have been super productive in the last couple weeks.

- Wedding rings
- Finalise and book church
- Hair stylist
- Start collecting documents/evidence for visa
- Suits
- Honeymoon flights
Of all the things we had to do on the 'up next' list, we have done them all! We booked flights last night and bought the suits today, and it felt amazing to have another thing sorted.
At this stage we don't really need to be too pedantic about the evidence for our visa. We have most of the evidence already stored away in a little filing box. We'll continue to store everything until the new year and then begin to arrange everything and start the visa application.
I don't want to tempt fate, but we are really quite organised at this stage. I am loving it.
This coming week we have our first meeting at our reception venue to start talking about some of the finer details. They forwarded through an 11 page document that we need to start to think about/fill out. Along with the run sheet I mentioned earlier, this is also pure bliss for me. I am having serious trouble controlling the elation I get from all this organisation.
This week I will be trawling through Pinterest to get some ideas for a colour scheme for the reception and some inspiration for flowers. If you're interested, this is my Pinterest Board.
