Wedding at Raffles Hotel

At 12:40 AM on Monday, February 20, 2006

yup, the event that we all were dieting and trying to look good for! our uncle's wedding! last time to attend a wedding from this side of the family cos this is the last uncle that we can actually feel happy for..hahahaha and guess what? this is like a whole day of concidence! first of all, my uncle best fren is my father's cousin and they did not know it til the whole groom entourage came to my house and the cousin sort of like recognised the house..hahaha rem the house and not the cousin! next, i find out that the aunt that married into our family is related to one of my frens in SJC!Kenji, really did not expect to see you there! when i saw the name" kenji" on the paper, i was like thinking of the fren in SJC, and it really turned out to be the one and only! how weird is that? Singapore so big, and we can meet at a relative's wedding??!!
The wedding was held at raffles hotel's lawn in the morning for the vows and at the ball room for the wedding dinner. the wedding vows was said in a terrace and had a red carpet leading to it,at first sight it looked real bali like! the grass was wet though and it was abit difficult for guests with heels to walk. guess what, even Raffles hotel make mistakes? guess what? for the morning, they played "Hey Sara" as one of the songs! and 2 break up songs during the wedding dinner!the dinner? the food was great, however the amount was like so little! they had waitress to serve every table and it was like so little! its like each person had like 2 pieces of duck, small amount of fish, rice. what the heck..did the waitress give us so little so that they got more to ta bao??

Another thing that upset the mood of the dinner is that there is one relative who could not keep his big mouth shut! some comments should just be kept inside and not blah out and blame it on the liqour for the loosening of tongue! retired and nothing to do makes a old man senile and loosening the tongue. if you have nothing good to say, then dun say it ma! spoil he mood of our table. we had to bear it all the way and after the dinner, we found out that he actually like said out aloud that he was debating to come or not to come. what the?? thinking of it makes me feel so riled up. i had to actually listen to his nonsense the whole way and see him make a total fool of himself! and he had to be driven home by my mum.. just becos he want to say stupid stuff and blame it on the alcohol. please old man, get a life and out of ours!

Nevertheless, i am so happy for my uncle for finding the one for him. may they start work and give us a niece or nephew to play with, we need another baby in the family to play with!

P/S: i m getting questions like: "So Karen, when is your turn?"Groan, its started already?

The happy couple!

For the wedding dinner at Raffles hotel, we got all dressed up and even went to get our make up professionally! i got cat's eyes! hahha.. yup we got all classy. this photo was outside raffles hotel, was eating fries cos you know, wedding dinners always start late! does my sista and cousin look so fine??!!


Dear was invited too, as he is almost part of the family liao. my family really treat him real nice and good. of course since we are dressed up, we had to take photos! i like this one! we look so posh!hahaha... not much chance to take this kind of photos so often..i like the lightning, it make the photo look so romantic..

I had to put this photo in! this is real funny. my sista and god daughter has a scissors paper stone thing going on, and my god daughter always wins! so my sista wants us to take photos til she wins! And when she does, my god daughter protests cos my sista cheats!
