How it all began...

I have been meaning to create a wedding blog for the longest time (it's been roughly a year, lol), so all subsequent blogs will be random ramblings of many ideas that go in all directions (stuff that's been floating around in my brain for quite some time now) and hopefully some decision-making as well. My maid-of-honor, kimmy kim kim (or more commonly known as "Kim"), is driving me hard in the decision-making-field and I am failing her horribly with my "it depends". Poor Kim, she probably didn't know what she was getting herself into when she agreed to be my MOH.

But before continuing, I really should explain the blog title. Dim Sum Bliss is the conclusion of a play on our names.
The play on words actually came about during our first few months of dating, 6.5 years ago. That's a long time isn't it? and we aren't even married yet o.O I came up with the concept and design of our "save the date" postcards and I'm pretty happy with how the images turned out using only powerpoint and paint ^^ On a side note, I'm going to try a version in photoshop just compare the quality before taking it to print.

And for those that were wondering, NO those are not our pet names for each other. That would just be a little too weird don't you think? Instead, we go by a much more normal combo of "Bunny and Tigress" Which kind of makes sense since i pursued him first (pursued, flirted, hunted down, it's all the same). *lol*

We had actually met a year and 2 months prior to "meeting". It was one of those gatherings where you are there for a mutual friend, but belong to two almost mutually exclusive groups of friends present at the same time and place. So, in other words, it was a quick "Hi" "Bye" (if even that) before we started ignoring each others presence... high school, go figure. Then the next year (and 2 months later) the same friend brought him with her to bubble tea (for my 18th bday, minus a day or two) and so we met again. A few days later, my first semester of university begins and as I walk into Japanese 201 guess whose sitting there (and he's gonna hate me for this next part) in the EXACT SAME OUTFIT from the bubble tea meeting. This was our beginning and the story of how we "met".
