the date.

trying to decide on the date (or even the month)
is very difficult.
the boy and i face a lot of timing issues.

for instance,
i just started grad school (yay me!)
and must not interfere with classes or semesters.
which leads a whole load of options.
should i take a semester off?
should the date be during summer?
should i go to school but have it during fall breaks?

although the boy is easily flexible with his job
our families are also very important in weighing factors.
the boy is especially adamant that his sister be able to attend.
since he could not make it to hers (overseas)
he wants her at ours.
she's a teacher (with a varied schedule overseas)
and she's also pregnant.
that leaves a very small window.

bc a lot of our family members will be flying in from korea,
it also has to be a date where plane tickets are not at their all time high
and a time where its convenient.

and to add upon the headache,
i am very adamant that the date not be near
a) my bday
b)mothers day
c)any other major holidays

hmmmm
any ideas froggie and jchong?
