Attended Jas's wedding yesterday. Being honoured to be in her sisters team, my day started at 3.30am in the morning, cos i got to reach Jas's home by 6a.m. Felt a bit chilly and eerie when i was waiting for the cab. By the time i reached Jas's house, everyone were already in their standby mode, ready to "combat" the brother's team. At 6.45 a.m, Jas's hubby, Shaun and his gang of brothers arrived with a "blast" in the sense that they were blaring their car horns. Upon hearing the hussel, everybody including jas's relatives immediately swung into action. Following on, as usual, the sisters team put them through a series of questions which includes getting them to dig out all the 5 cents coins which proves a certain degree of difficulty cos nowadays people dont really carry lots of 5 cents coins on them. However due to time contraint, the gang of them were let in after 15 minutes of "drilling".
Afterwards, followed Jas all the way to Shuan's house for tea ceremony and then back to her house again for tea ceremony, then to the church again for the wedding ceremony. Although I'm not a Catholic, I find the church ceremony particularly meaningful especially the speech and prayers given by the priest. Its is nevertheless true that its destiny that brought the two of them together and couples should cherish each other.
Went home to change afterthat, arrived at Orchid Country Club at 6pm. Went straight to Jas's suite as it is still early. Jas was busy putting on make up. As usual, Shuan was up to his mischief again but he ended up getting teased by us cos the makeup artist helped him put on eyelash extension and even mascara. Haha Anyway proceeded to our tables for dinner afterthat.
Anyway, i find myself particularly quiet that night cos i admit i am not good with words, but deep inside me i'm going through an emotional turmoil. Personally, i have known jas since primary school which means we also grow up together. Reflecting on the past, time really flies. I could still clearly remember all along since primary school, jas has been a very gentle and quiet girl, while i was away swinging on the monkey bars with the other boys, she would be sitting on the benches and chatting with Chen Xia. And during our secondary school days, i could still remember kit mun and jas and i talking about marriage. And the time when Jas introduced Shaun to us. Time really flies...
To Jasmine if u happens to read my blog, i would like to wish you all the best and may the both of u have a blissful marriage life.
