First post of the yr, it's gonna be about my best friend's wedding. 

Yesterday was pamela's wedding, and i was honoured to be her maid of honour. Despite having been involved in so many weddings, this is actually the first wedding that i actually know both the bride and the groom, and organised a hen's party, had get together sessions w the sister and brother team, and made a speech. Really awesome and fun loving bunch of people, and i am really lucky to be part of this. 

There were a few hiccups before and during the wedding day itself, but the couple was surprisingly calm in handling the situations, taking them all in as they come along. And also, pam was confident that the bridal party are capable enough to handle everything. I am proud to say, i have managed and carried out my duties well enough to be deemed as a maid of honour. 

It's not easy letting someone step into ur life, and furthermore, spending ur whole life w him. I must say, people who are married are brave people, and i am envious of this bravery of theirs. They are willing to let themselves carry another responsibility, and input changes to their lives. 

I am now in bintan, on an open water diving course trip. This is something that has never ever crossed my mind as something i will do. So when kenneth asked if i'm interested to join him, i was a bit reluctant at first. Then i thought, why not try something new. So here i am, having difficulty learning and performing the necessary skills required to pass the course, but at least to me, i can say, this is something i have tried and done before, and it is a sense of achievement for me. 

Tmr is the last day of the course and trip, i am the slowest student of the whole group, but that's not gonna stop me from plucking up the courage to overcome my fear of removing the mask from my face underwater.

Likewise, i'm gonna use this to motivate myself to pluck up the courage to move on with life however hard it may seem to be, just like how i did what i'm gonna do tmr to pass the course.

Cheers.
