09! Nine days to go.
Woke up early this morning, just before 6 o’clock. Then the alarm rang at 5:55AM. I felt good and energized, but decided to stay in bed for a little while to think of what were the things I was supposed to do.
Yep, I’m staying home this morning to take care of some things, like paying the utility bills and buying the plywood for the wedding ceremony. I spoke to my mum about the makeup for the ‘miko’ girls and she said that my aunt and cousin could do it, since my ‘luk sum’ has an appointment at 2PM. The other alternative is to have the 2 ‘miko’-sans come to my house and have their makeup done before they go to the dojo.
The 2 flower girls’ flower-baskets are sitting on the armchair. I’m supposed to bring them over to Chin Jin’s for her godmother to fill with flower petals. The baskets are nicely wrapped and decorated.
Yesterday, I sent the email to the photographer without the attached map. How careless. Anyway, I resent the map this morning. Me and the boys have some planning to do tonight. Chin Jin and the girls have their gown fittings to do. So it works out just fine.
Nine days…
09 Part deux
Spent the evening with some of the ‘heng tai‘ at Hock Shai’s place. It was so nice of him to lend us the use of his den. We made progress with the plans for the wedding dinner night. Also Shai was watching his favourite movies “Lord of the Rings”. Pretty neat set up he has. Nice and clean now that he removed his old computer that got zapped by lightning. He even made us some ‘bubur‘. It had some peas, and bobor cha cha… (is that how its said?) Nice and hot!
We finished late. Eventually I got home at 11:30 and I found myself latched out of the house! Wah! I had to phone in and let my dad know that the front entrance was locked from the inside. Luckily he was still awake. So we chatted for a bit and he went to bed, while I continued to work on some more preparatory things for the wedding.
Boy, was I sleepy.
