I guess the wedding was never meant to happen on 13 Sep -- many incidences pointed to this; I just didn't get the hint, or rather refused to accept it.
1) So, I can't go over to Switzerland 'coz of permit issues (that was the first trigger that made Buns initiate the cancellation of the marriage, though it got me very frustrated as many things were planned by then and it made me feel like he was marrying me just to get me over.. I was annoyed that the downpayment of $2k for the restaurant was already made too... it didn't give dad a very good impression of him...)
2) However, following that decision shortly, even before I managed to inform him, our solemniser (whom I finally managed to engage after trying about 18 others) informed us that his license wasn't renewed and he can't solemnise marriages anymore.
3) And then elections. As it seems, the elections are highly likely to be held on 12 Sep. Irony coz when we went for the training, there were heaps of rumours of it being in 2016. Well, I wouldn't want to be running a full day of election duties just one day before my wedding.
4) Because of his granddad's sudden passing, Bunsie's grandma changed her mind despite being so excited about it initially and decided not to come (possibly due to financial issues).. I suppose we'd still like her blessings at our marriage afterall... I'd rather save up a bit more and have his family over.
Well, Guan thinks that these are signs that the marriage should not take place now and that I should just let things flow and not be upset about it. I guess I feel better about the situation after hearing her perspective. But it also makes me wonder if the signs are trying to tell us that we shouldn't be together.
Well, I guess only time will tell...
