Whew. Medyo madami pa din kelangan gawin pero we are doing well, going with the flow, hehehe. Our meeting with Threelogy yesterday was good. We might go with the full AVP with interviews. Edil had this unique idea of doing the interview a la E! with blue couches/director’s chair and the movie poster he made. I just hope we still have time for it though.

The caterer hunt is finally finished! And I can say we are truly meant to be stressed in finding her kasi she’s such a great find! More about them on the next post. Need to work!
