Little Things That Matter ....

Marriage is considered a leap of faith and one of great milestones in someone's life.

So we took it seriously, we searched our vendors thoroughly, comparing the prices, the qualities, the reviews from the forum.

We chose our theme to be white, champagne and lime green.

So from our wedding invitation cards, souvenirs, church mass booklet and other accessories, we use these color theme.

Our wedding invitation cards was designed by my brother and we printed them out in Jakarta. We invited almost 350 people in total.

Since we met because of music, we used piano and flower to symbolise our first meeting on the front cover and our courtship favourite song lyric "Faithfully" as back cover.

Besides, my brother also helped to design and print the church mass booklet. We chose the reading and songs ourselves with Father's approval.

Our first reading was from John 15, I Am The Vine and You Are The Branches. This reading reminds us to always abide in God so that our life always be fruitful and become blessings to other people surrounding

Our second reading was from Ephesian 5, Submission in the Christian Household.

The reading advises us how to become a Godly husband and wife.

In addition, my mom helped to search and purchase the bible, wedding rosary and wedding candles in Semarang that would be blessed during the mass and used as a reminder to always put God first in everything especially our family life.

Our souvenir was a towel embroidered our name and the date of our wedding. We chose towel for practical reason since everyone was able to use it and remembered our big day.

My mom also helped to source for them at Semarang.

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon. We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely. We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral ...

Reflection

It's been such a long time that I sit down, press a pause button and reflect back what has happened in my life, what things I should be grateful, what are the lesson learnt and what I should improve Things have gone so fast in my life and it's like unending cycle. It's been almost 2 months since I helmed the new project in the company I am working and it took half of my life. I felt like I had a new baby but not "literally baby", it's more responsibility as many lives are on stakes. I had no experience, no mentor and coach, no team per say, only one person who's not hundred percent fully committed in this project and on top of that, the company threw me in the deep sea that I need to swim and survive. It reminded me back when I started my motherhood journey. With no knowledge, no experience, no mentor, no helpers and little money, we need to nurture the living baby and finally we survived. The first one was always the harder, but after the second and thir...

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 6)

It's time for another dream destination - Cappadocia. After arriving at Athens International Airport, we miscalculated the transit time. We only gave 1.5 hours in between without realising that we needed to change the airline and domestic route so we rushed out and checked in 25 minutes before the flight departed. Thanks God, we were still allowed for checking in. After settling in Turkish airlines, we were provided with warm baguette and drinks which could calm ourselves and our seat was next to emergency door so we got leg room. We arrived at Cappadocia airport which was very small and reminded me on my hometown's airport in the old days. Then we were picked up by airport transfer to our cave hotel - Panoramic cave hotel. The journey to the hotel was amazing, we saw many natural chimneys that we never saw before. Arriving in the hotel, we checked in to our pigeon nest room which was chimney suite and never stop took pictures of the room and the scenery surrounding. In the lat...
