Happily married and back from my honeymoon!

Journal Entry: Mon Jun 15, 2009, 9:09 PM
Last sunday, June 7th, I got married to the love of my life, Vasco. We have been together for six years (dating 3/ engaged 3). We started dating shortly after our high school graduation, and I don't claim we are high school sweethearts, cause we're not. He was though, one of my best friends then and still is.

Picture of us from my bridal shower in april [link] .

We got engaged my senior year of undergrad on October 21, 2006. Its been a long time coming and wedding planning for three years is, well, interesting. Its really not something I want to repeat EVER AGAIN. But I survived with the most important part of any wedding- the actual marriage to your spouse. Some people really forget that part and are too focused on out doing the bride before them. My wedding was probably mediocre to some, but it was beautiful to me. And we had fun too.

The weather, thank gawd, held out. It really had me freaked earlier that week. It was looking like it was going to rain. Luckily the system that hit my area around thursday was slow moving, pushing back the system behind it and leaving june 7th right smack dab in the middle of a beautiful day.

I was worried about the weather because I had an outdoor ceremony in a rose garden. Yeah rain... outdoor wedding...no back up plan... don't mix. I kept saying earlier in the week, it can rain all the hell it wants during the (indoor) reception just plz not during the 20 minutes of the ceremony.

Picture? Yes Plz [link]

*I don't have my professional ones back yet, hopefully next week. Point and click cameras will have to do for now.*

Anyways, the only major hiccup (to me, i doubt anyone else noticed/cared) was that the readings were done after the bridesmaids walked down, not before like they were supposed to. I'm not going to lie, it really pissed me off at the time, especially when we held a rehearsal the day BEFORE for that EXCATE reason! grrr, it still annoys me. And the programs I slaved over embossing (180 of them, two embossments each) weren't passed out until AFTER the ceremony was finished. they are supposed to be passed out beforehand.

my good friend beth played the flute as i walked down the aisle. it was really touching. and my other friend keri recorded two songs (greensleeves, avi maria) on the harp that i played that day. i'm lucky to know such musically talented individuals.

vasco gave me a bracelet the night before with a butterfly charm on it. i'm very fond of butterflies. one side read love vasco and the other said you are everything to me. i cried when i received that and wore it at the wedding. i still get teary eyed looking at it. he also wrote me a note for the wedding day stating why he loved me and about our future. he did good.

ah, i forgot, we had a water unity ceremony instead of using candles. i didn't want the candles to blow out since it was outside. we used red and blue colored water that we poured into one vase to make purple. i spilled a little red dye though on my veil. :(

after our awesome ceremony, we took pictures. originally i wanted to take pictures before, so people weren't sitting in the reception hall bored waiting for us, but fate didn't allow it that day. humorously we got done with pictures right about 2 o'clock, which was when the reception officially started anyways!

and note to anyone who is pasty white skinned from german/irish/french decent- wear sunscreen! i forgot it. bad move on my part. i keep thinking, its only 20 minutes. nope, with picture i was probably outside for about 2 hours.

red as a lobster by the end of the night.

MOAR pictures, first one is kinda blurry but all i got to work with right now.

the last one was a surprise to my wonderful, sharp pointly object loving husband. i bought a bunch of fake swords and gave them to the groomsman. they "captured" me and vasco had to fight his way to me. my brother in law, nate (the tall one in front of me) is in the army and very good at protecting. LOL.

and yes, i started the cake smushingness.

i mixed a version of the evolution of dance, but a lot of people were too chicken to rise to the challenge. only my bridesmaids and i danced to it. it was fun!

i still love the song we picked for our first dance, wonderful journey/ at the beginning, which is on the anastasia soundtrack. life is a road, i want to keep going. love is a river, i want to keep flowing. life is a road, now and forever, wonderful journey. i'll be there when the world stops turning, i'll be there when the storm is through, in the end i wanna be standing at the beginning with you.



and i'll have to edit this later to add about the honeymoon or make a separate entry. we just got back today and i'm pretty dang tired right now. i must regal you all about how i think i may have a broken tailbone later.

Yeah, I guess. But I adamantly believe that copyright is R-E-T-A-R-D-E-D. The work of countless firms, labels, and whatever else you wanna call them, it's going to be constantly reused by future artists. It is a losing battle if you ask me.

But, who's asking me? I'm just one of their many victims, ready to pick off at the smallest offense. (However, I haven't posted any work of that nature as of yet)
well copyrights are in place to protect the original artist. again, i support violations being deleted, but not banning. but then again, i'm biased because i liked waterbender's work. in reality, isn't all fanwork a violation of copyrights?

and i would very much appreciate if you don't use the word "retarded" on my page. thanks!

My bad on the "retarded" thing. The thing is, I am also biased when it comes to waterbender. I just can't believe she got pulled. Her comic was getting interesting, and she got pulled before it was finished, something I did not appreciate. That's the reason why I am opposed to a permanent ban. If only she had been less arrogant to the cruel nature of copyright.

I don't like to think of all artwork as copyright violations. If it is not drawn or marketed by the people who inspired such pieces, it is not theirs, it is fan-derived. That's my take anyway.
