Another Complaint

I woke up at freaking 7.30am this morning, to attend a church wedding ceremony. Fuck.
I have never met the couple, and the stupid church is at East Coast. Thats a bloody 2 hr journey on p.transport for me. I was out at 8am to make it for the 10am session. Kok.

Then, while I endured 2 hours of preaching which I felt was useless. Sorry christian dudes out there. The faith n me do not click. Not at all. I rather be in a temple with smoke from the incense blowing into my face anytime. I feel more at home there. I guess its the upbringing. I stoned largely throughout the singing and everything.

Alboy's mum threw a side glance at me, as if to check on me. I saw it from the corner of my eye but I ignore and continued to stare into space. Heeeelllloooo, its like me throwing the lyrics of my school song in your face and expecting you to sing????????

I whispered into Alboy's ear after all the haliluya thingy that I never ever want to get married in a church. I rather not marry.
Sigh, all these wedding events that I go to, they never fail to make me more anti-marriage.

Then, as usual, there was the lousy food reception. I ate like 2 pieces of papaya. Thank goodness I had the brains to stop over at bedok market before hand to eat a pipping hot bowl of prawn noodles.

I left after hanging ard, it was torturous. The cab far home costs me $15. Kok. I was too lazy to wait for the bus, and besides with so many eyes on me, i rather just scoot out of the way as quickly as I can.

Anyway, I think the bridal couple are cmi. It all started way long ago. Which idiots hold wedding on a Malay festival. Must be the cheaper hotel rates. Then, they make Alboy the driver and you know what - at the end of the trip, they gave him a $20 Angbao only. Hellllo, it wasn't even enough to cover his cab fare to get the car. We havn't included the petrol cost. They even had the cheek to tell him to pass them his taxi receipts so they can reimburse him. Duh. Wouldn't a big enough Ang Bao cover it all?

And, the day has not ended. Wedding dinner to go later.....sigh.
