Waiting

Leah's on her way back from their team building cum outing. Sitting here in starbucks waiting for her, sipping on my pomegranate peach frappucino, makes me think, again how much I missed her in the past few weeks that she was in UK. I'm just glad she's back. Hopefully, we can arrange everything for the wedding before she leaves for the UK again (in October, I think).

We passed with flying colors!

Hehe.

Well, we like to think that that we did anyway. The questions the priest asked ranged from the serious ("Have you ever been married?"), to the mundane ("What's your father's name?"), to the absurdly obvious ("Are you a Catholic?"). All in all, the interrogation went well, and despite the fact that we were told again that they would only allow liturgical or religious songs to be played during the mass, we feel good knowing we accomplished another step towards actually getting married.

Leah is with her officemates now at their teambuilding. As for me, I'm going to have to give the church in Pateros a visit later, to get copies of our baptismal and confirmation certificates. Hopefully, I can get it right away since the St. Therese office church has been bugging me about these documents.

Pre-Pre-nuptial interview!

Leah's back!

She arrived here in Manila Tuesday night, fresh from her short visit to her siblings in Dubai. Still reeling from jet lag and the time shift, we're now here at St. Therese for the pre-nuptial interview. I was surprised to find out the priest would be interviewing us separately. Leah got to go first so here I am, outside looking at the fantastic windows of the church, like the one shown here. Still don't know what the interview is going to be like. I'll post more on this later, after my turn.
