2008-05-04
Saturday.............( excuse the boring title)

Hmm.....where do i begin?
Seems easy reading blogs created by others...
most of them so interesting and at times funny.

Let me begin with tis morning......
I got up early, unusual for a Saturday morning.
And started to tidy up the garden....
swept n wash the cement area, where snoopy sleeps.
Then swept the dried leaves from the jambu tree n so forth.
Then completed the task, was happy the garden looked tidy.

Ben came out to the garden, got the scissors,
happily trimmed his favourite plant.....the white bougainvilla
while i was washing the car porch......
I went to off the tap n saw the garden .......ah! what?
no thanks to Ben.....i juz tidied the garden n now
the leaves all over.
He trimmed the plant n left all the leaves on the ground.

Nagged, nagged ....then i went to clear the fallen leaves.

Went out for breakfast with Ben.
After breakfast had to rush to the nearest hair saloon that was opened.
Most saloon opens after 10.00am.....so no choice went to Luxe.
Came back at 10.40am. Only had 10 minutes to makeup and changed.
Suddenly rained heavily, managed to reach SMC at 11.10am.
Outside church a funeral about to begin and inside church a wedding was to start.
St. Peter's choir on duty to sing for the wedding service....one of the reason why i had to be there.
Fr. Michael was in a very happy mood .......commented the choir members all dressed so nicely.
Very punctually the wedding service began.......the bride in a beautiful, yet simple cream gown.
The bride walked with her parents up the aisle to the awaiting bridegroom.
Jenny wore a beautiful elegant dress ....later found out it was tailored made by Christy (Chic n Sleek).
Fr. Michael's homily .....very familiar, seems like the same as many weddings that I attended.
Maybe is his standard wedding homily ......stress that the couple MUST stay faithful and no divorce .

Oh! one more thing ......Rachel and Pui Wan were so beautiful ......the minute I saw them....
straight away the words ..... "You're so beautiful came out of my mouth."
Rachel and Pui Wan were among the few who helped ushered the guests in Indulgence.
Rachel wore a cream dress .....in fact she looked like the bridesmaid.
Pui Wan wore something greyish which was very pretty too.

After the wedding service, we adjourned to Indulgence.......
tables were numbered and lists of names written
onto a photoframe ( tis were placed on each table together with some table gifts).

Entrees' were served......french toast spread with pate' and topped with 1/2 a grape and the
other a water melon cube top with a pc. of meat. Not many favors the latter one:
a sweet and salty combination. No one seems to be able to taste what meat was that.
Of course choice of red and white wine were served too.

Our table consisted of 9 people, half from chinese group. We waited for the main meal....
uncertain how it would be served......all behaved very jinjang including me.
Most of them were there for the 1st time. Waited and waited.....no sign of main course.
Philip came to apologise for the delay.

Was it going to be buffet style? I thought so but the rest thinks otherwise. Finally ......
yes, I was right......buffet style. We were tucked in one section away from the main area
.......Sob! Sob! cannot see the couple, the musicians and the screen......like deserted.
No choice la some of us have to ......there were 3 more other tables beside ours
in this deserted but cosy area.

Food .....so so la. Western food....but two desserts were very nice.
One didn't looked appetizing ....mushy, mushy but very tasty.
The other was a very rich chocalate with banana tart .....but very tiny piece.
Yummy! Yummy! won't mind some more. Regretting ....should have ate more of that.

Philip and Jenny came to chit chat with the 'deserted tables'.

I had 1 glass of red wine that went well with the food and another 1/2 glass of white wine..
and i was feelin' a bit tipsy. Very 'char'.....Doreen faced was red ( she sat in a different table)
The lunch sort of ended almost 3pm. why sort of is becoz u can actually hang around but
we left.

So that was like more than half a day gone.
