Time now is 215am on a saturday night..just came back from a long day out. started bright and early this morning, gg over to my uncle's hse at hume park for my beloved cousin jane's wedding! yups, she's getting married alr! actually, she is already married! haha..First in the morning was the tea ceremony at her home, then we had lunch and the relatives just kept talking and talking! i was just there reading the papers and then i got to the Classified section. i kept gg thru all the jobs in there. it was really interesting to see all the different firms hiring ppl for different jobs. and i was cheekily looking at all the accounting relating jobs dat i qualified for. there was actually 1! haha..plus i kept pointing out finance manager n senior accountant ads for my sisinlaw. self entertainment i guess, haha. After that i just got bored and fell asleep cos i was tired as well.
Jane's church wedding ceremony was at 3pm at St Theresa church. was a simple affair(basically the wedding thing was kept simple. good job. :) ). i didnt know the groom, vyncen, was a non christian until today. i was surprised, cos i always thot he was a christian too. kudos to him for going along with jane for a church wedding. after the ceremony and a lil photo-taking we proceeded for refreshments cum dinner. and this was where i was made fed up. it was the buffet line and the aunties rushing for all the food. i was there trying to queue up while the aunties were like crowding ard the buffet table and grabbing food as tho their lives depended on it. i was disgusted man. to be honest, i always thot church-going folks were cultured and well behaved, a manner of class to them. but what i experienced today made me realised that its just singaporeans? or our human nature to be like this. esp the older generation. today's folks just reminds me of those aunties and uncles rushing to board the ferry to the casino on the sea. what a disappointment in these church-going folks' behavior.
After we're all done with the refreshment cum dinner, we headed home and i took a short rest before driving over to dorothy's hse for her 21st bday party. i nv expected to get to use the car. cos i normally dun get it on weekends. just nice that my parents decide they wont be using it tonight. so i drove over, tho dot's hse is very near to mine. it was definitely much more convenient than to take a bus n then walk qt far in. met up with jc classmates there. it was great to see them again! had lots to talk abt and catch up on. felt a lil "behind-time" when the girls started talking abt uni stuff - job attachments, overseas exchange, this business club, that investment society, etc. guess some of the guys felt the same? i mean, its like we're being excited over "matriculation" n the girls will be like laughing at us being excited abt something they've gone thru almost 2 yrs ago. nv thot i wld feel this semi-"discrimination" haha. anw things r really diff and we've all grown up yeah? now we talk abt starting salaries, n what cars we drove to the party! hahaha...
After the party, a few of us guys proceeded to Al Azhar for supper and chit chat session. daniel drove too and followed behind me. he horned me from behind for fun and what i did in return was to wind down the window and point the middle finger back at them, haha! road rage! Anyway we were at azhar for almost 2 hrs, talking abt almost everything! we talked mostly abt uni and investments that dennis was doing. it was really intellectual stuff gg round the table. i guess that's the thing abt being from hwachong? we tend to talk abt stuff like dat, and thats actually normal too, haha. i was really interested in what dennis had to say abt his investment experience. i wanna start soon too! been wanting to do so for qt some time alr. guess i will learn from him and start reading up too. learnt qt a lot from just now alr. good job dude! after talking for so long at azhar, we decided to foot the bill and leave. but guess what? we reached the carpark and we started talking again! like really chat chat? talked abt duno what till we digressed to abortions n when we wanna get married and what will we do if we had children with down-syndrome etc. super funny to see 5 guys stand in a circle in a carpark n talking. looked kinda suspicious huh? haha..But of cuz, we left la, after abt 15mins, cos daniel had to go home. the guy has church tml! so we left and i sent chuan wei n robin home.
Speaking of chuan wei, do u know this guy's crazy?? he freaking retook his As last yr man!! as a private candidate!! and now he got 4As!! lolx, crazy shit! improved from his previous results of 2As, 2Bs man. really cant believe he actually went thru all the trouble of studying again and actually achieving even better results. really gotta take my hat off to him man. guys, this story is just crazily amazing. haha..
Alrite, that's all for now. sunday soccer tml, tho my knee's injured. gonna meet geri dear for a while too before jane's wedding dinner!
