For the past few weeks, I keep getting asked these questions constantly:

“Are you stressed?”

“Are you nervous?”

“Are you ready?”

After the first dozen times, I’ve been polite and given my real answer. Now it’s a monotone and short “no.” The thing is, I really am not stressed or nervous but now that people are asking me all the time, I’m starting to stress and get nervous! I feel that all the eyes and the pressure of their questions is making me feel uneasy. Inside my head I’m thinking “Why!? Is there a reason to be nervous?!”

Instead, I feel like they should replace their questions with these questions:

“Aren’t you excited?!”

“Don’t you feel so lucky to be marrying Mr. Caramel?!”

Or anything along those lines. This is a good tip for you bridesmaids out there - these questions will help brides feel excited instead of nervous.

The conclusion I came to is — Don’t be nervous about being nervous. Don’t be stressed about being stressed. And of course, don’t be anxious about being anxious. Shut everyone’s questions out and just concentrate on regular life.

I picked up The Chronicles of Narnia from the bookstore. I’m going to allow myself to be a regular human being even though there are only a couple of weeks left. I want to live everything day to day.

Are there any questions you guys have been asked that you like or dislike?
