hi! i'm back to share more! :)
am on leave today.. woke up at nearly 12pm! long sleep, well rested.. :)
yesterday had a long & busy day.. was busy being a "Jie-Mei", busy "sabo-ing" the groom, busy asking for a bigger "ang pow".. haha... had fun though.. :D
at the banquet dinner, met up more of my secondary school friends. wow, been a long long while since i last saw some of them! think about it, it has been 10 years since we graduated from sec school! wow, time really flies lo.. catch up a little with them.. brought back some funny memories as we recapped the list of teachers.. few good ones, 2 very fierce ones.. 1 whom looked like "tweety bird", haha.. Mr Seah, that was how we addressed him. Our physics teacher.. think about it, he really quite looked like tweety. hee..
we were wondering whether are the teachers still teaching there?... but, think none of us go back to the school anymore lo..
anyway, was very happy to see Xiaohan in her gown.. wow, beautiful bride... am glad to share this joyous occasion with her.. hmmm.. i always feel bad that i didn't really contact her very often, considering we were really close friends in sec school. but thank God she always will initiated some gatherings.. st john gathering... sec sch gathering.. that's how i can still be keeping in touch with her. cannot cannot.. must repent... it's a gift from God.. good friends, close friends.. i must make a conscious effort to be more active... buy her a meal on her birthday, should stay in touch ma.. if we really treasure the friendship, which i really do... :)
anyway, show you a picture of her & her hubby..
very good-looking couple ya? i really find them so compatible.. glad they are finally settling down after 9 long years.. anyway, it's not only about looks, but as i communicate with derek, i could sense that he is a good man, so i'm glad that Xiaohan has found a good man to cherish her & take care of her. :)
i pray that may their marriage be so blessed, so blessed... :)
ok! now to my birthday! wow! was SOOOOOOOO blessed this year lah!
