Wedding prep..

Wedding prep....ME? Me preparing for wedding? no no...don't get me wrong... I was just being a kei-po today, following Ernie and Joanne to the hotel to discuss about wedding preparation. I went there to have a look in order to have a rough idea of how the 'wedding march' gonna turn out. Feel a bit handicapped as there's no proper PA system to support my instruments.... Oh well... will work it out....

Other than that, didn't do much today. I'm tired and lazy to blog nowadays. Have some sort of feelings that my blog page will be closed down if I still won't update it...haha..

CNY update...

Yeah, the title sounds so cliche and boring. CNY this year turned out to be quite ok and somewhat surprising to me. Didn't see any "dong dong chiang" (my version of lion dance) yet, but the usual things such as ang pau, food and visitation are on full blast. By now, I'm starting to feel a bit YUCK about food. Too much of something is no good, indeed. BINGEING----that was what I did in Taiping and Banting. Yaking and laughing were also some of the crazy things I did. (duh! of course!)

1st day of CNY:
Went to Taiping Baptist Church with my family. It was a Chinese service and my cousin preached. It was a good sermon but I pity the interpreter because he was struggling with the interpretation. Other than that, I got to experience yet another traditional form of worship with hymn books, benediction and blah blah blah....it was a lil' dull I would say, but the choice of songs were awesome!

2nd day of CNY:
Everyone in Wong Family was busy preparing themselves for the big family gathering. It was a gathering for all the three generations of Wong family. We had buffet lunch, crazy games and there was also a video on memoirs of Wong family. One word: INCREDIBLE! It's really heart-warming to see all the 10 brothers with their children and grandchildren, gathering together at a place with one heart and purpose.

3rd day of CNY:

Went to mum's hometown in the morning. Finally, I get to meet my cute little nephew who comes all the way from Sabah...well actually he's my cousin's son. He's just so CUTE and ADORABLE. He's only two years old, but he can repeat after you whatever you'd said and taught him. Plus, he can converse in 3 languages, ie. English, Chinese, Bahasa Melayu. Not bad huh....I miss him loads now.....

It was also an eye-opener for me when I witnessed around 10 Indians climbing up an oily pole to grab the free gifts. It's hard to describe to you...but I wish I have a photo to show you what it's like.

The rest of the days of CNY:

Visiting, visiting, visiting...Lazy to type out all the names of the families I visited...Will put up the photos asap.
