My Best Female Friend's ROM

-


I specially took leave to witness the solmenisation ceremony of one of my best female friend in poly, Caifeng.

The solmenisation ceremony took place at Excelsor Hotel, River City Resturant. It was my first time attending a solmenisation ceremony at a resturant. I was there quite early though, even though I knew the location of the hotel. I was in a happy mood, as I finally managed to see one of my best friend walking to the other end of the red carpet with a good guy, Kelvin.

I went up with Yvonne to the resturant, another of my poly mate who was invited for the occassion. Jason & Huiyu were invited too, but they were unable to make it due to the short notice given by the bride & work commitments. I guess the reason was the day was a Friday, & not many people are allowed to take leave, given that it is start of the month.

Yvonne & I were greeted by the bride's uncle and wife. Soon we were joined by the other family members, Caifeng's parents & younger sister & Kelvin parents. Kelvin was so excited that he told us that he wished he could sign the marriage certificate & kiss the bride now. Hmmm, seems like my friend really found a guy that can love her wholeheartedly.

Both sets of family members were very friendly towards us, the invited guests. I can see the happiness written on their faces as we chatted and took pictures.

After the ceremony, we were treated to a 8 course meal. It was already about 3.30pm when the event ended. Caifeng and her parents asked me to take care as I made my way home.

Hope Mr & Mrs Lee likes the show that I made for them !!!

Shionge, I wish I could have done better. One of my frens were complaining that he can't see the pics as it was too small.

Anyway, it was an additional gift for the couple. A gift to show how I valued their friendship.

Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien

There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.

House Visiting & AVietnamese Girlfriend For Me??

I started my day early today at 8.30am. I was helping my mum with the flower decoration & slept at 1am last night. Had received CNY sms messages from my ex colleague, LS, Angela, Rebecca, Darling, Caifeng, Huixuan, Huiyu, Mac, Jaslyn, Joey, Candy , Kelvin, Rich & Mike. Thanks for all your well wishes, my friends. The 1st stop was at my grandma's place, which we were lucky to get a cab almost immediately after waiting for just a short while. In the ride, my mum & I were chatting casually about some issues that happened in S'pore recently, when we actually touched on the old cobbler cheating Vietnamese gals to be his bride. The cabby told us an incident that happened to his friend. His friend, a guy aged 39 had married a Thai gal aged 23 some years ago. Soon after, they became parents to a baby boy. When the boy turned 3, the gal took away the money in the joint bank account with her husband. The savings totalled to about $100,000, which the guy had saved for years fr...
