Two weeks ago, my fiancee and I went to the Bridal Studio to view our wedding photos. The staff in-charged of editing the photos showed us the photos from this desktop computer.

There were various ways of editing:
1) erasing away excess skin
2) making facial features sharper
3) flipping the photos horizontally
4) whitening the teeth
5) elongating the photos to make the couple taller
and so on…

I believe the Adobe Photoshop was used to edit the photos.

It was 7pm and by the time we finished viewing the photos 5 times, it was already 7.45pm. We were not very satisfied with some of the backgrounds.

once said is enough…

It is another few more days nearer to my wedding. As I looked back, I somehow don’t really understand how we coordinated and planned everything needed for our big day.

It ranged from buying of proposal ring, choosing the right bridal studio, selecting the hotels, negotiating with the staff, getting help from cousins and friends, and at the same seeking to understand ourselves better and trying to compromise wth respect to culture and values conflicts.

1 more month…stress and pressure gradually lifted off my chest and shoulders…i really felt lighter now…much lighter than before…you couldn’t possibly imagine what i have gone through living each day, with 3 times or even 10 times the pressure on me…really suffocating…for a moment, i had a real taste what depression really means…totally shut off…withdraw from people, even my love ones…absolutely tense up and feeling hopeless and helpless…prefer to be alone in the world of negative thoughts…in my world that everything seems to go wrong…

?now, as i have said, i felt better…thanks to the love that i have received from people around me…thanks to the angels protecting me…(hmmm….it is during tough times that i started to believe there are really angels.) thanks to my will power that has brought me standing upright again…thank to my rational thinking that things can eventually be better…thank the world that there is still HOPE…
