Andy & Stephanie’s Wedding

-


Wedding March - Stephen Cleobury


the wedding Song - Kenny G

 

I was invited to my friends’, Mr. Andy Chia & Ms Stephanie Ang wedding at Peony Jade Restaurant at Clarke Quay last night. I have been looking forward to this wedding dinner, as I felt happy for the couple and I am pleased to be invited to share their joy with them, even though I had known them for only about 1 year plus.

It was also a chance for me to catch up with my long-time blogger friend, Darling & her hubby as it has been quite a while since I saw them. It is always nice to catch up with old friends, and more so in this joyous occassion.

We were a little upset about the attitude of some of the wedding guests at our table, that marred the joyous occassion with their behaviour. With due respect given to Mr & Mrs Chia, I shall not elaborate here as it will defintely upset the couple. I always believe that respect needs to be earned. If you want people to respect you, you have to be senstitive about people’s feelings and respect the person as well.

This incident has made me realise that planning for a wedding is not easy and there are always unforeseen circumstances that needs to be solved on the spot. I wonder if I can be that cool if the situation that happened to my friends last night will happen when my time comes.

Marriage can be a fearful word if it is not carefully planned.

Nonetheless, I hereby wish Mr & Mrs Chia have a happy & blissful marriage!!!!

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.

I guess Darling, SR & Rich want to watch "Memiors of A Geisha", especially after the ladies were so engrossed in the book at MPH during our last meeting. It can be afternoon or nite show, but afternoon is preferred as I would like to avoid the crowd shopping for CNY goodies & clothes. I would like to call the following people.

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...
