the trip was.. boring on the first few days.. took the bus all the way from singapore to ipoh (almost 9 hrs) then they had the dinner at their house at night... at it was raining like as though a storm was about to occur... damn scary.. and their relatives were from all over malaysia and flooded the whole house... shawn and i made the right choice by staying in the room.. (we stayed over at their place for the trip) yap.. and we fell asleep at about 9 plus.. which was damn early... think we were tired from so much sleeping the the bus in the day... haha.. boring day...

day two (sat): the day yee sim got married... woke up at 6 plus to accompany her as the makeup artist puts on make up for her and do her hair.. pretty... was thinking about how i'd like my wedding to be like at that moment... =) then went to change and awaited the arrival of the groom... as usual, the house was flooded.. really flooded with ppl... everything was moving so slowly... the groom arrived at around 10 and they dilly dally doing i-dunno-what until about 12 plus before they proceed on to the groom's place... dilly dally around again and we eventually got to eat at 2 plus... maybe the malaysians are used to the slow pace living in contrast to the singapore's everything-fast-fast lifestyle.. shawn and i ended up walking back to the house before it rained again... went out to have supper (lok lok) at 9 plus and then got back at 11 plus and played cards... boring...

day 3(sun): woke up really early in the morning to do wad?? to drive to the other end of ipoh to eat dim sum... hmm... after dim sum.. drove to another place and sat down just to drink coffee..one big grp of 13 ppl sat down, just to drink coffee and deprive other from having a place to eat their breakfast.. felt a bit wierd having so many ppl looking at us drink coffee... but their coffee was really nice... after coffee, we went to i-dunno-who house to pluck rambutan.. haha... i was just standing at a side laughing at ppl who got hit by the rambutan that fell from the trees... the locals climb high up into the trees to pluck them... power... we got one whole big big bag of rambutan.. pluck and go.. poor trees... next, to the newly-wed's new house... nice... very modern.. the price of their house (semi-d) is the price of a 3 room flat in singapore... so cheap lor... slacked around before the ladies went to the salon to do our hair before we went to the restaurant for the wedding dinner... first time in my life, i witness a wedding dinner that actually started on time.. (almost) time stated:7pm. time started: 715pm. wow... singaporeans... shame shame... and it ended by 10pm... cool... early, compared to singapore it's early man... i helped to count the angbao money they got and paid the restaurant in cash.. (the restaurant insist to be paid in cash) .. which adds up to be around 13000 plus on the female's side.. interesting day...

got matchmade my my mom and the host to their son... forcing me to stand next to him everytime we take pics and making me sit in his car whenever we go out... hmm... my mom says she wun stop until i get myself a boyfriend... wad is the world coming to? must everyone be paired?? wadever it is, the feeling of being cared is always good... =)
