14 days to go before my big day! I am very nervous. Today Andrea's present arrived in the mail. It is an Italian language book. I think a first lesson would be a good way to start this month. This afternoon I have a pamper schedule for me. I am quite looking forward to that. It will be a bit expensive but I do want to have that bridal glow.

There is an interesting site to learn Italian, it's "duolingo.com", I followed German lessons, it's well done and easy to follow.

I am on duolingo actually but the progression is pretty slow so I was asking Andrea for a book for the longest time. Duolingo is very helpful in learning Spanish though but not quite with Italian. Some phrases sounds weird as per Andrea.

@flapiz I agree with Andrea that some phrases in Italian on duolingo are weird and it is the same in French. I never tried Spanish to see if it has the same problem.

@LadyDuck My friends went to Spain and they said Duolingo helped a lot. But then we Filipinos have a lot of Spanish words in our language so it may just be that.

I am trying my best. I think I need to learn to be more calm and less controlling.

I just wanted to wish you a very happy June. This is a very special month for you, because it marks the beginning of a new journey in your life. You are going from being single to being married, which is a whole new world. But I know that both of you are very excited about this new adventure, and I am confident that you will both enjoy it as long as there is love in your partnership. So, congratulations, and good luck!

Thank you so much. I am quite nervous as I am quite a shy person and I do not want the attention but a wedding is like having the limelight on you. I dread that.

@flapiz Oh yeah you are the main character in that event. So, you will have to smile and be friendly with everyone in the event. Being an introvert myself I really have to contend and adjust myself when it was me who was in that situation. But everything went well and ended happy and exhausted from the whole event.

I hope you are able to learn Italian. I spoke it as a 4-year-old, but have forgotten most of what I knew.

Oh wow. Are you partly Italian? I hope so too as I would love to communicate more with my future husband's family.

@TheHorse I see. Children are quite good at absorbing languages. I hope I can learn well so I can teach my future kids their dad's language.

@flapiz No, I don't think I am part Italian. But we (my family) lived there for a year when I was little.

Only 14 days to go? It will be over in a flash. Enjoy your pampering schedule. That's a great idea.

I know the days are just flying and it feels like I need more time to prepare.

More nervous than excited at this point. I feel unprepared.
