One wedding down!I just attended my cousin's wedding at Rasa Sentosa over the wkend.Stayed over at the hotel after the wedding so it was like my whole wkend was exhuasted on the wedding.No time to study and i had work yesterday which was monday and today im gg out n probably gonna get home quite late!BAM!I have lessons tmr and i havent finish my sociology reading and assignment!But im still right here typing about my screwed up life leisurely.What an irony huh.hahaha Through this wedding,i have realised how manipulative my aunts and grandmother can be.They can be very stubborn old fo*eys.haha I feel mean for typing the whole word out.But anw...They insisted that my family stay overnight in the hotel with them but we r really not very keen because its not as if 1)its very inconvenient for us to go back home late at night since my sister has a car, 2)the hotel rooms are like palace rooms.Moreover,if we stay,we have to share the room with my grandmother and aunt because we insisted that theres no such need to book another room at the hotel.Despite not booking the room(so we can escape staying there despite their incessant nagging that we should),they still INSIST that we stay there.Its like even as my mum and dad proclaim that 6 people cant possibly squeeze into 1 room and its ridiculous,my aunts still demand that my sister and i stay back.Hai..what to do?The sister duo who is so adored by millions.HAHA.Since they are so determined and stubborn,my sister and i have no choice but to accept their offer with a sign of resignation in our hearts and voices.
In the end,i was assigned to this small corner with an extra SMALL makeshift bed(because my sister,as usual,bullied me to taking it w/o offering me any choice by telling me when i came out of the bathroom.."There,thats ur bed.haha") and a very thin piece of cloth as a blanket.I was freezing throughout the night because I always sleep with a blanket and a rather thick one at that even if the weather is not chilly at all and it happened to be raining throughout the night of Saturday.I woke up feeling rather tortured and pathetic and i never felt more desperate for a scalding hot cup of tea.You know the feeling like for eg( at genting) when even a sclading hot bath is so shiok?hahaha
But anyhow,there wasnt really anything exciting about the wedding.haha Perhaps because i wasnt really close to this cousin of mine(i was never close to any cousins from my father's side),I probably didnt even have a real conversation with him when i see him like at most twice a year(once during cny and once during either of my grandparents' b day).It would be considered good if i even talk to him at all but it isnt really talking since our "conversation" involve ard "Could you pass me this thing?","Oh yes im fine im studying in PJC/SIM now","Oh yes im 18 gg on 19 years old this year","Oh yes,time flies and no i dont think i look really different from before." And normally "conversation" ends ard there.But the whole "conversation" would repeat itself again the next time he see me.haha so thats the gist of it.We really are not close to each other.But to me,the most heartwarming part of the wedding was probably when one of his bestman and is also his best friend of 26 years went up the stage to tell a little story about their friendship and how the bride and groom knew each other.Coincidentally,the best friend of 26 years was the matchmaker!:D So sweet isnt it!
The 2nd most exciting part of the night was probably how my nephew tried to traumatise this uncle whos the husband of my aunt.This particular uncle is extremely anti-social and he didnt even try to make any conversation with anybody except my aunt during family gatherings.That is how anti-social he is.He is permanently in a stoned-stern face and you wouldnt want to talk to him because if you ever get into this 1m radar he set for himself,he would actually kill you with his piercing eyes.And yes,he really just sit like a statue in a corner far away from the crowd for most gatherings.Unless hes forced to sit at the table with us during meals.haha So being extremely anti-social,he refused to share coke with other people even as the coke is poured from this jug that the waiter/waitress is carrying around.Yes,hes the typical person who,as a kid, wont share toys with others much less go to the playground because he will want a playground of his own and will not tolerate if other people shares it/used it before him.So he went to get his own jug of coke from the waiters in the end( that is like such an anti-social act right).Oh another eg of his anti-socialness was when my sister,me,my aunt and this a-s uncle went for a dinner at this rather nice restaurant and we were seating at this rather large square table.My sister and the uncle ordered the same dish while me and my aunt ordered different main courses as them.So my aunt wanted to try some of the main course my sister and a-s uncle ordered.But instead of getting some from her OWN HUSBAND's plate,when hes just seated next to her,she actually RATHER stood up and stretched her body to get some from my sister's plate,because my sister is seated opposite her.The thing is my aunt actually rather go t the trouble of standing up to get from my sister than from her own husband!How funny is that!Hes probably that a-s and scary that my aunt dont even dare to share with him.hahaha
But anyway,my a-s uncle hate kids and its funny to see how his face froze whenever my nephew got near him.My nephew being very naughty is actually rather demanding at times but we really never cared much about what he said because hes a kid.He would say things like eg"Ah yi,go get my toy for me." in a demanding tone and most of the time i would probably tell him off and not get this toy but i would never get OFFENDED/ANGRY because hes just a kid right!But apparently,my a-s uncle got very angry with him when my nephew shouted good-naturedly at him:"Sit down!" repeatedly when my a-s uncle stood up when everyone else were sitting down(Actually im nt sure why is he performing such an a-s act too).So naturally,everybody laughed at how demanding my nehphew is but amidst the laughter,my uncle said in a very offended tone and stared right through my nephew telling him:"How amusing." with his deadpan voice.Man,this guy cant take a joke man.If i ever leave my nephew in his care,i think he would probably throw my nephew down my block and come running to us saying my nephew jump down from the window himself.
Operation We Dare gonna come true in approximately 4 hours time!Excitement is killing me!hahaha Im so gonna win this and enjoy the awesome dinner later!wahaha.
