It's nearing the end of March. Damn fast. Two weeks back..don't really remember what happened during the weekdays except during the weekends. My sista..eldest..got married! Finally!! >__<>
My dad held a dinner for my sista in Muar. Not on the wedding day itself but a week earlier before the wedding day. Something that is usually done in the Chinese custom. But now, I don't think many people is doing it because it takes a lot of time and effort to do it. It was the first wedding for my family so...my dad needs to invite his FRIENDS to get back all his ang pows that he have so far given to all his friend's daugthers or sons wedding. But I don't think he got back his duit la...maybe for the dinner but not the alcohol coverage. The wedding was very chinese-sy la..hahaha..the typical chinese dinner.
Then last weekend...was THE DAY!! Was prettty exciting! We, the sisters...actually my 2nd sista came up with the plan how to "torture" the groom before he was able to step into the house to get his bride. But we were pretty nice people and didn't play over the line..well coz my granny was there..if we did that..sure kena tembak from her. The best part of the whole wedding was the arrival of the groom with his heng tai. Horns blaring from a distance before they reach our place and we the girl's side, are not suppose to greet them immediately and we are not allowed to see the arrival of the cars. The other best part was the tea ceremony....as in we the sisters giving our respect to him. Each of us gave him bowls (ranging from the biggest to the smallest from my 2nd sis to my youngest brother) of desserts soup. Wasn't that bad la..hahaha..
That day..we had quite a number of photographers..my younger sis, my 2nd sister, my younger bro with his tiny mobile phone, my cousin and my sister's personal photographer. My granny got quite angry when we snapped her picture but we told her that..nope we are not taking your picture la Ah Ma..we are taking the bride and groom. >__<>
After that, off we go to the groom's home in BP. The car I sat in..gosh..the driver..damn slow man!!!! THere were 4 cars including the bride's car plus 2 cars from my sister's side. The journey seem pretty long when we could actually arive BP in 40 minutes but they took 1 hr to reach. SLOW right!!!
Then..there is the tea ceremony again..then makan makan..then we balik Muar. Dinner was in BP. Restaurant setting is nice..food is okie...evertyhing was smooth. Seems simple but it was fun. Never attended a Chinese wedding before and it has been a great experience.
Can't wait for July. My 2nd sis is getting hitched. And her wedding is in KL!! Yeah..dont need to rush back to Muar. Her ROM will be in April..That's double happiness in my family!
