The Bridesmaid
I would like to begin by saying - I love my friends but I hate bridesmaids. I love my friends but I HATE BRIDESMAIDS!
I'm lucky enough to be in a very tight-knit group of girls. Some of us are going on 12+ years together. And throughout these years we've faced boyfriend/girlfriend troubles, being roommates, lesbian crisis, "stealing" boyfriends, going slightly crazy, and babies. And thru all of that we've held strong with being friends. I must say that my friends are wonderfully understanding and loving people and I truly feel blessed that each of them are in my life.
But then these wonderful smart AMAZING women become bridesmaids and these same ladies morph into snarling treacherous beasts! It happened with my wedding and I thought surely this was just some fluke. I was the first of our group to be married and obviously the girls just didn't know proper protocol. So now that we all have that under our belts wedding #2 will be a breeze right?
Wrong. The moment that my friend Sarah announced her wedding I could feel the charge in the air. It was as if a full moon had come out and all the girls changed into their gnashing forms.
At first it was just a light picking on the colors, the date, the dresses. Then it was the teasing of this will be the LAST man you'll be with, ect. Then over time it has escalated into, "She KNOWS I hate strapless dresses!" the key is fickle "I'm going to look huge in that dress!!" and my favorite, "How could she not think of meeeee!"
I turn in shock at these monsters and wonder where did my friends go?! Hopefully they will all return to my loving friends before the wedding hits.
By the way, exciting news Para Paru is back in the works - we've already got chapter 11 typesetted so expect some great releases soon!
{RELEASES}
1.Caramel Kiss volume 02 chapter 07 - A note from our translator: And there're lots of new characters :D 3 to be precise (but I'm embarrassed to admit that when I first went through it I must have been very unobservant because I couldn't tell that Yuu and Nozomu were different characters :P and then I was super confused for a while haha xD)OH AND RIKU APPEARS AGAIN!!! but............>.<
2.Bitou Lollipop volume 02 chapter 07 - Happy Anniversary to our joint partners Stiletto Heels! We know you'll have many happy years ahead and we all hope that Hatsu doesn't get into so many car accidents in the upcoming year! ;)
3. Half and Half volume 02 chapter 07 - It's a "chapter 07" type of day! Just to let you know, there's an empty bubble on page 91 (I believe), it's supposed to be that way, so don't worry that we missed something. I think there was one in Caramel Kiss as well, but I can't remember off the top of my head.
4. Issho ni Neyou yo volume 04 chapter 18 - First day of school! Many thanks to our joint partners DDD for this chapter~
5. Zig Zag Don volume 03 chapter 13 - Be prepared, I sat horrified and crying during this chapter. But at least we finally know why and don't hate her mom for being how she is. (At least I don't...) And on happier notes welcome our new cleaner Vioxx to the group! \^_^/

Thank you for the release! :)
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm stupid, because I THINK I know what the password for downloads are this week and every time I try it in multiple different ways it won't work. I've never had a problem before and I've probably read those paragraphs 5 times and I can't find anything else except what I've been trying....which won't work...
ReplyDeleteARGH.
Omg!! The password this time was so well hidden DX How do you do that!?!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your hard work. And all the best to you and your firends, may you still be around to bitch at/with each other when you're all old and grey!
AH HA! I see it now...Geez
ReplyDeleteI totally understand about the bridesmaids thing (having been one and feeling like I was the only sane one there for my friend) One of them seriously complained that she had to dance with the guy who escorted her during the bridal party dance...
Hello? Are you new? That's what happens during weddings..DRR
Hahaha I can totally relate to what you are saying! I am a maid of honor for 2 weddings this year and it has been just uber-annoying and I am just ready to book an after wedding vacation away from everyone! Thank you so much for the releases! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe pw was really well hidden^^ Thanks for your interesting account on bridesmaids. Sound fun to me *gg*
ReplyDeleteThank YOU!!!
ReplyDeleteThank's for all the hard work, I enjoy looking for the pass every time to. It's way better than having to have a post count ect.
ReplyDeleteWow! And I thought I was good at puzzles...very impressive it took me a good 10 minutes & rereading it like 5 times to find the pw! Good Job! Thanks for the releases! I've been a maid of honor twice...and to me its the brides that turn into monsters like a completely different person!
ReplyDeletethanks for the new release. It took me awhile to get the password...:)
ReplyDeletethis time the PW was SUPER easy XD
ReplyDeleteI love it <33
thanks for the new releases
jajaajajaja I found it!! It wasn't really that hard!! READ!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the releases!!
that pw search took me way too much time xDDDD
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the releases, and good luck with the whole bridesmaid-wedding thing <3
Thank you for releases!!!
ReplyDeleteSearching for the password is like a game.
thank you so much for the releases!
ReplyDeleteOh I hate bridesmaids too. I was the first of my group of friends to get married, and my girls ended up just showing up to the wedding with the dresses, shoes, and jewelry I bought them (though I received no shower/party/any planning help). I recently got asked to be maid of honor, then demoted to bridesmaid, then I asked to not be a part of the wedding at all since I moved cross country (though my husband is still a groomsman). Then I got asked to be a bridesmaid again in another wedding far away, and it was only fair to decline again for the same reason as before. I've been a bridesmaid before and raged at the expense/ridiculous pettiness of the girls. Woops, sorry it turned into a rant.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Forbidden Garden (and affiliates) for all the wonderful releases! Bitou Lollipop! Ishou ni Neyou yo! Half & Half! Hooray!
Sometimes Bridemaids can become "BridemaidZillas!!!" LOL Thanks for the chapters.
ReplyDeleteAhhh..~ to lazy to log in......
ReplyDeletestrapless dresses..(sigh)
I don't like 'em >:!
So, even bridemaids are scary, I thought only brides go crazy with all the stress and blah blah...
toppichu~
i was always a bridesmaid!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the new ZZD chapter! Tricky with the pw, too! Took me a while to figure it out. Thanks again.
ReplyDeletehurray! i've been waiting for ZZD
ReplyDeletealso when reading i went like 'huh?' at the pw part haha now it makes sense :p
thanks! i love zig zag don, i've been checking everyday! ^o^
ReplyDeleteClever, clever! These entries are a treat to read, especially when the password is so well-hidden. Whatever network that Bridezilla show is on, perhaps you should pitch this idea at them: the spinoff series about crazy bridesmaids, Bridesmaidzilla (or It's a Bridesmaid, Maid, Maid, Maid World) LOL!
ReplyDeletelol found it!! :D
ReplyDeleteYay! Papra paru is coming back! *does a little dance*
ReplyDeletehaha, oh my god!
ReplyDeleteFeeling really stupid after finding it. XD
I felt like I knew this post by heart but after re-reading till my eyes hurt, I found it! ;v;
it's gratifying, to say the least.
thanks for your hard work!
I don't find the password :( Maybe it is because i don't speak really well english and i have don't understand something? I have read the entire post so many times :( I just have to read online :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for all your hard work! :)
The password is: fickle
