Stressed out Brides vs. Bridezillas

As a soon to be bride, planning a wedding can be tough. It can be stressful and make you go crazy. Most brides, get upset and start to get angry and outsiders normally uses the term, "Bridezilla". That is an incorrect term. It may seem as if we are getting mad over small things, but really, it was a bunch of people causing a lot of stress and just like shaking up a soda and then open up, we explode. Here are some instances of how the stressed out bride gets "shaken".




Yes, you go and get a hall and all what you wish cost as much as your first born child and refuses to budge in your requests and eventually you give in to the most tolerable place and deal with it. If you hire a person to decorate your wedding, they want to pick the tackiest thing and say it's "fashion". No, it's not. Please stop while  you are ahead. Bridesmaids will never agree to do stuff that the same time. Most people always have that one (or two or all) who has a problem. Thankfully, for me, I didn't have too many problems with my girls and even the ones I had to replace, they were for situations beyond our control. Here are some more leading to the breaking point:


Once you tell your mother you are getting married, they tend to take over. They will make your guest list, pick the food, decor and everything. You can absolutely hate it, but it doesn't matter because your mom likes it and "you have to make mom happy." Also, there are some things a groom will help with for the wedding. The only thing is most won't help with every single decision. Their focus: honeymoon!! In their minds, wedding is for you and honeymoon is for them and your respond will be "Whatever you like." That is the only option you get most of the time. Yes, you will want to scream and put hair out. But by the time you get to that point, you are now labeled a bridezilla.


Bridezillas however, will warn you from the get go they will cut you if you dare try to tell them what to do. It's either their way or feel their mighty wrath:


If you are dealing with a bridezilla, my best suggestion is run and hide because there will be no stopping her rampage until the day is over with. In the end, it will be rewarding and you will have a fun with friends and family, but if you don't want the hassle, my suggestion is to either go to the courthouse or do a destination wedding with you, your future spouse and two good buds who wouldn't mind having a nice vacation (only so you can have your witnesses).

But it worked yesterday......

"But it worked yesterday." That sentence I despise the most? Why? People are compelled to believe that nothing in life, ever breaks down. It's not possible in their minds. I wish I can find unbreakable stuff because I am spending a lot of money on things that eventually break down. For example, if I try to fix a computer issue for someone because they have been running various programs on the computer and not knowing how it works and lo and behold:



 This is what we get. A clueless person who has no clue that they have broken their own computer. You spend a very long time trying to rack your brain while they are sitting there being clueless of what is going on. When you get to the point where the computer is at the point of no return:


This is a very good case. They are running maybe a computer that came out when their kid was born and now their kid is graduating college, had downloaded 2,000 viruses which ultimately killed the computer. Of course, no one keeps the CDs anymore, if the computer came with it. Some of the computer companies decided to put it on the same hard drive as if your hard drive will never die to save $10 on a CD. You explain the issue and tell them they need a computer. In disbelief, they then go and say, 


I am not sure what compels people to say this. It's like they tell you this as if it's a validation of it not being broken. If that was the case, then I should have a full bank account since I got paid yesterday, my car should never stop working since it drove just fine yesterday, meat being left outside in the boiling sun near bugs should be great for consumption since it was perfectly fine being purchased on the day prior. When I hear these words, "It worked yesterday", a sudden rage come inside of me I feel that makes me want to go crazy. I tried to hold it in. I try REALLY hard not to let it go..... 



On the inside, I have snapped into a mad rage like never before.....








If only I could. Instead, I bang my head on the desk multiple times and wonder why. 




This is my mini rant of things that annoy me for today. Until next time.
