Missing you... 1 more day

I seriously attribute my splitting headache to the obscenely loud snoring of my sister. And I woke up to find out that she had single-handedly evicted me from half of my mattress with half of her body mass. How complicated. So sleeping on my mattress was me, and half of her. It was the greatest living nightmare to date.

Okay, so apparently I K.Oed before I had the chance to resize the pictures I took and blog about it. Yesterday was probably the first time I kept my eyes on that pair of wedding bands flashing across the wall. Then my sis saw my phone’s wallpaper and likened the rings to “her boyfriend buy for her one.” Sometimes I don’t know if she’s clever or dumb. Anyway, we got to squeeze around table no. 1 (nice lovely number to start with), with 11 adults and 2 toddlers. I tell you, Athena’s my new darling.

That darling smiles on cue and looked just like a Japanese doll with her hair tucked behind her ears. Her mum looks barely a year over 18, but in fact she’s 26 and the proud mummy of 3-year-old Brycen and our darling Athena. And her husband was still asking me to bring the ‘auntie’ to clubs. Hello?! If she’s an auntie, what am I?!

The dinner was veggie-friendly, with loads of veggies along with the main dish, so I wasn’t that grumpy.
Until I saw the shark’s fin soup.
I’ve been abstaining from that dish for years and years, even before I decided to cut off meat. I just didn’t feel right eating that. Even if experts say that the supposed method of de-finning sharks and throwing them back into the waters is not widely used, I just don’t see the purpose of consuming shark’s fin.

I just love the cutlery.

Oh, and they have wedding singers on guitars belting out with English and Mandarin oldies. I was just telling my parents that I’ll have a full band for my wedding, and I have all idea where I’m going to get that from.
*Laughs*

As usual, I’m not a fan of the little gifts they have on our tables, unless they’re food. But I loved the gift this time. I wonder how many I could have collected if I made a round around the ballroom at the end of the dinner. I’m going to have them on my table!

And the thing that wrapped up this lovely wedding?

Congrats to Alvin and Tricia.

(My sister kept saying ‘Alvin and the Chipmunks’ throughout the entire wedding. How childish for a 13-year-old to do that.)

And I hate arguments that spark off because of money. And you had to make me do that. I’m sorry if being normal had offended you, but I just can’t accept your perspective of spending money. Sometimes, I really wonder if you can ever finish spending your money, be it on your medical fees or what. I’m just very confused. Maybe there’s a lot that I don’t know.

And I can't wait to see you tomorrow. It makes all the boredom today feel worth it.
