close to closing the deal! and prayer requests...

ha...i'm never a good negotiator. but this wedding planning thing has taught me: if you want something, it never hurts to ask for it!

i think we came to a rather good deal with June from Hilton. although she still did not grant me all my requests, it was still about 90% success. am especially happy we got the dessert changed to my favourite yam paste with ginko nuts!!

we're still praying hard how to break the news to my mom about this whole affair. she probably senses it coming but as with her character, she might still take it badly. still, I thank God for the long talk with dad and his acceptance and counsel. I pray it is a step forward to reconciliation and forgiveness.

i think i'm still a worry-wort at heart. something I am battling constantly with. especially when it comes to such a huge event... even if I'm not paying the bulk of it, I worry for D2. I struggle a lot with this and I have to constantly remind myself...
Philipians 4: 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
I need to live out a life that shows our great God is a trustworthy one, and not let the Devil have a foothold.

Right now I need to just concentrate on the exams. that is another story in itself. but same goes, battling negativism, anxiety and worry, unwarranted comparison with others, lack of confidence.

10 more months to go! let's take it one day at a time. :)
