Hardly had any sleep, woke up at 8am and reached Lynn's
parents' house at 9am. Breaking the traditional rule that
Lynn actually had me as one of her jie-mei for her wedding.
Gezz.. I cant believe myself either. How on earth I ended up
to be one of her jie-mei. And Lynn had only 2 female (one
indian and one chinese) being her helpers and Marcus had 9
brothers at his side. So out-numbered from the sister gang.
Anyway, the guys also had quite a tough time passing the
gate of 'ang bao'. At the end, the jie-mei collected
something like 199$ from Marcus.
After both parents' tea ceremony, I drove back home to get
my blading gears and went straight to east coast park to do
my 'Extreme Blading' session. 4 laps from Fort Road to Bedok
Jetty. Non-stop for 1.5hrs. And then waited for Alison, Viv,
Ben and KimThye to come much later in the afternoon to join
me for the 2nd round. We continued to blade for 2 more laps
and rested for awhile at the Lagoon food centre for some
sugarcane juice.
We stopped around 6plus as I went to take a shower at the
public toilet near the car park. It was so hot and so nice
to let the cold shower water pour right from the head. What
a feeling. Just went I was about to get changed, Alison,
KimThye and Ben went ahead for their dinner at Defu10 and
Viv went to join her frens for her BBQ Dinner.
When I reached Shang hotel, it was like 8plus knowing that I
should be still early. Noway, chinese wedding dinner has
ever start on time. Not surprisely that there were still
alot not arrived yet. I went around to meet some old
ex-colleagues and even met Nelson the beng. What a small
world.
The theme was kinda unique - Retro of the West. Lots of
uncles and aunties thumbs-up for that as they used very
special movie effect from the past and integrated with their
wedding movie clips which they made during their pre wedding
holiday in thailand. The food was good and really enjoyed
meeting up all the samling gang, except for Royce, Jodie,
Marilynn and quite a few who couldnt make it for the wedding
dinner.
After the dinner, I took PakHing and wife back home and had
a good night talk with wifie, I went straight to bed liao.

Weddings are really stressful and yeah as the days are approaching fast, you just can’t get enough sleep because of all the work going on. We had the DIY reception at one of the Chicago wedding venues 9 months ago and all of those experiences are still fresh in the mind. It was exciting but stressful time.
