Happy 2nd Anniversary to us!

September 18, 2007

Wow…I can’t belive it’s been two years! I still remember it like it was yesterday. I know this year we said we weren’t going to buy each other gifts but I still had to get something…a little something. I will post after what the gift is. =)

Just in case people are following the traditional anniversary gift giving. Year 1: paper Year 2: cotton Year 3: leather Year 4: fruits/flowers (that’s going to be a hard one) Year 5: Wood. And if you make it that far, I’m sure you can figure the rest out! =)

Here are some of my fav pictures from my wedding:

Getting ready

We saw each other before the wedding so we had time to take pictures

We did a simplified tea ceremony. My dad started tearing and that got me and hubs to start crying

We were so happy! Advice I can give brides: Don’t forget to have fun at your wedding, enjoy every min of it and don’t worry about the small stuff. After all the planning, you deserve to enjoy your own party. Trust the vendors you chose and share a quiet moment with your new hubby. It will be a day you never forget.

China Trip 2004

September 4, 2007

I dug these pictures out because someone is getting marry and need group pictures of our China Trip. And since I uploaded them…here they are for y’all to see.

These pictures are from our MBA school trip to Shanghai 2004. The school trip itself was for a week but a group of us decided to stay additional week and head to Beijing. The week in Shanghai was spent visiting companies, thus we didn’t do much sightseeing. Most of the pictures are from sites in Beijing such as the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and Temple of Heaven. Oh, and these pictures are scanned (thus the bad quality). I guess we were so old school none of us had a digital camera. Yes, we used pagers instead of cellphones in high school and only started using email in college. Gosh I’m OLD!

Funny story: Students to Shanghai were grouped into A & B. Everyone visited companies according to the Group A or B schedule. As you can imagine, the day came to visit Reeb Beer and that particular group had too many people to fit the bus. I have no shame in admitting, I was not suppose to be on the bus. But did I get up when the professor asked people to leave (that wasn’t in the group)…NOPE. I was looking forward to it the WHOLE week. And I knew all the other little sneaks that wasn’t suppose to be on the bus. SO HA…I win. =)
