Do you think wedding makes you forget everything else?
I am constantly doing something wedding related nowadays and I feel like other aspects of my life are suffering due to it. Maybe I just need to get my priorities straight… idk. But I am starting to get Bs in college and I missed quite alot of classes this semester. And I feel like there is just soooo much to do but no time to do it all. In class, I write myself little notes when suddenly something pops in my head tht needs to be done before the wedding. So many to-do lists are piling up… hahahah maybe I am just going crazy. And this is the calm me… not even the freaking out me because that would be a two page essay here.
Does this happen to any of you?
ok.. I am guessing I am officially insane. Am I different now then I first started gs? hmmmmm perhaps I can read all my old posts and compare
adds it to the 5 page long to-do list just beneath studying for test tomorrow and starts crying
Mizsani - lol I hear you!!! I'm forever complaining to the fiance about everything I'm doing and still need to get done before the wedding. I still have to give all the cards out. Ahhhhhhh
I feel like I'm a different person now. Before I was never interested in weddings, never thought about how mine would be (before the engagement). Now I'm the exact opposite! I don't recognize myself. Grant the wedding is so close now. But all I can think of is the wedding and then secondly the honeymoon. I'm glad someone else out there feels the same way. I think I'm becoming so boring thinking and talking about nothing else! lol
you spoke the words out of my mouth. Im the same way..all i do is obsess over ...my shaadi outfit..the decor..this that..that i stopped thinking of anything REAL.
I def stopped reading namaz on time. ( forever browsing for newer ideas)
Also, I feel like im becoming dull to my family/friends/fiance because thats all i can converse about.
My advice to you would be..stop stressing...and losing urself. Live in the moment..take things one by one...if you get caught in stressing only about this 3 hourfunction your throwing..ull forget the real meaning of it all- your nikkah- your marriage.
at the end ..its about U and ur FIANCE...coming together in holy matrimony..not the color of the parda and plates.
i had an argument a major one with my fiance for the past few days because something ( so minor ... his popi ( Dad sis) got her unofficial ( only baat pakki has happened) DIL the same mehendi suit as my fiance's cousins and sisters were wearing. I threw a strop it wasnt in my vision and i havent even met her why does she have any importance in my wedding :|
for the past few days i've smacked into reality and realised .. i need to stop being a bridezilla and get on with stuff!! i can't focus on work , i work in retail purchasing... all i can think off is asian clothes :( not western clothes like i should do for my job!
These days can be such a whirlwind of craziness :s …Its hard not to feel like youre losing it … Heres an article on helping you to keeping perspective : Keeping perspective on your big day
that definatly will help you just get organized and hopefully take some of the pressure off … (im such a google nerd :P!). Hope these help! Best of luck!!
I just started a new job recently, and my coworkers hate me- I've heard them complain several times behind my back b/c I'm so aloof, and I spend every break on my laptop taking care of wedding stuff. That's all I can think about now, since it's so close. And I have NEVER cared for weddings, so now that I'm in a position to plan mine, it's really stressful b/c I don't know what I'm doing!
miszani- I keep making to-do lists like a lunatic, too. What else are we supposed to do? It's the only way to stay sane & keep track of all the random thoughts flying around in my head.
Summerbr- I still have to send my cards out, too. Way behind. It's the stress that is turning us into brides who are completely engrossed in our weddings. Hopefully we won't be judged for this short period, lol.
I have to get a MUA!!!!!! arghhhh thts the worst part right now!
and My college will be done 2 weeks before my wedding. So My wedding will be after college but all the planning has to be before as I will be stressed two weeks before my wedding for the finals, I want to relax at the end so I can actually enjoy my wedding.
OOOO... I have two tests tomorrow but I have so much to share with u guys later!!!!!!
All i'd like to say is, I'm not a Bride- but sister of the Groom... and all aspects of my life have taken a backseat secondary to all the planning, shopping, etc... and i'm not into weddings as it is!
haha, but allhamdulillah it has been fun, just intense... No matter how OCD type A personality I am- we still have much to do! and we started our preps for our 8 functions back in November...
Good Luck Brides... Two things to remember -- 1) Breathe 2) You're marrying the Man of your dreams IA
-- everything else is momentary and will fly by... bumps happen no matter the amount of planning ;D
