Royal Perfection

I don't think I could do a blog post today and not talk about The Royal Wedding. I woke up at 5:30 this morning and technically the plan was to go to work. But, I just couldn't resist turning on the tv to see what was going on. I had it set to record because I didn't want to miss it by accident or get up that early. If there hadn't been so much hype in the media I don't think I would have been super excited about it. But the whole world was watching and I didn't want to be left out. It's funny how the media can get us worked up about things, whether it be good or bad. It felt kind of special to be bonded with the world as we watched the most adorable couple be bonded in holy matrimony. I found myself wishing I was Kate. So beautiful, incredibly poised, she just seems too perfect. What an enchanted life lies ahead for her. But really I don't think I would want that life, too much pressure. I wouldn't mind having an English accent though. Anyway, who didn't love her dress? I loved everything about it. I also liked how Kate's sister Pippa carried the train. For some reason I though Pippa might try to steal some of her spot light, I don't know why. About an hour and a half after turning on the tv I made it to work. I came right home and resumed where I left off. I watched their first kiss after being married, and their second. It was sweet and they are a sweet couple. But man I was just dying for them to make out or something, they could have a least had a little more open mouth. I understand why they weren't all over each other and lovey dovey, they need to be proper and whatever. Well, that being said I am happy for Great Britain they seem really united by this, even though royalty in England doesn't have any real political power. It's so exiting having public figures you can look up to. I wish I could just see what it would be like to live in Kate's shoes for one day. I also wish that hats and head pieces where as popular here as they are there, I think they are really fabulous. And one more thing, before I go...I enjoyed the footage of Princess Diana's wedding that was showed. What a wonderful way to remember her.
