CONGRATS TO MY NEWLY-WEDDED COUZ`

hohohos.
attended my cousin's wedding dinner ytd!
soo excited!
but actually, i havent seen him since i was like.. five?
my mom has 11 siblings, so its abit hard to keep up with all my cousins.
anyways, rushed home frm work at around 4 plus..
was alreadyy running late.
mom sent me to go get my hair done.
LOLS. i didn't even go get my hair done for prom and
yet i'm getting special treatment for my cous's wedding.
hahahas. he should be honoured xD

was really nice getting someone to wash and blow dry ur hair.
all i did was just sit there reading past issues of teenage.
and because i have freakishly long and thick hair,
he took around 15-20 mins before my hair would actually dry out nicely.
i dunno how they do it but they could blow dry my hair such that it looks so straight!
anyways,
denn he got down to curling my hair.
funny, cause i didn't ask for it to be curled.
took another 20 mins cos my stubborn hair jus wouldn't curl. ><
after which he started doing those complicated loopy things,
andd after half an hour of twisting and pinning and spraying and combing...
.

tadaaa`

but i got a shock when i felt my hair.
it didn't feel like its usual self,
instead, it felt all stiff and.. fake?
but nvms. it was only for one night.

my mom was nagging cos it was alr 7.15
when we should have been there like 15 mins ago.
cabbed down to holiday inn atrium.

LOLS. this is the one and only time my hair would ever be so curly.
they were springey too, thanks to the amount of hairspray
the hairdresser used.
when i pull them and let go, they'll jus spring back into place,
same theory as maggie noodles.

okays, the entire ballroom was done up real nicely!
most of the guests there were really really young.
like 20+?
reminds me of the time i went for siti's sis wedding.
had a blast there okays! xD
denn i saw my cousin's dad aka my uncle,
whom i haven't seen since i was five, again.

andd i got a real shocker when i saw that i was sitting at the VIP table.
like we get to sit together with the bride and groom?

but i felt real guilty when i saw the bride tearing.
she was tearing cos her mom was cryingg.
and her mom was like sitting at a different table.
felt like i was sitting at where her mom was supposed to be seating.
it was only until i learnt that it was tradition.
like the bride had to seat at the table where the groom's side of the relatives are.
how unjust is that?
why can't it be the groom sitting at the bride's table?
hahahs. if its me,
and that is ONLY IF, i ever get married(hahahs to jiro =D)
the table which we seat at will be with BOTH sides of parents,
and people we are actually comfortable with.
the tradition is jus... weird.(can't use dumb cos its mean)
isn't that abit unfair to the girl?
the best night of her life has to be away from her parents
and sitting with total strangers?
nuh-uh...


i was getting bored cos i was sitting at the table with all my uncles and aunts.
andd i had absolutely nothing to talk to them about.
the most they'll jus ask the same old qns..
'where are u schooling?'
'omg you've gotten so tall, what do u eat?"
yada yada yada..

didn't had to talk much cos i was more of focusing on this...
.

xDD
alright, i mean, who doesn't go to a wedding dinner thinking about all
the fab food that they're about to serve?

but sadly, the food wasn't my idea of fab.
but what could i say?
its a chinese wedding dinner.
geez.. when the appetiser came,
it was those cold dishes.
duck was still okay,
but spicy jellyfish????
but fine, being nice in front of my uncle,
i did nibble abit.
BUT I SWEAR THAT'S THE LAST TIME!

shark's fin made me feel guilty all over again,
andd then came steamed SEA BASS.
you know what that is right?
yeahh, its FISH!
gawd, sorry mann.
no matter how much my uncle looked at me,
i wasn't gonna put that into my mouth.
lucky for me, my aunt loved it.
that's not all,
she loved the fish head too.
andd there she was, eating on it happily.
andd me? yeah about to hurl any minute.
duh. i'm just sitting beside her,
i was getting a clear view of her working her way through the fish head.
urghhhhhh....

well, there were other weird stuff like sea cucumber?
its nothing like a normal cucumber which i love so much.
sea cucumbers are all brown and mushy..

but i loved dessert.
red bean paste! =DD

last pic of the day.

[[ you don't know trouble, i'm a hell of a scandal]]
