…i gained a brother-in-law.
it was soooo beautiful and touching. i’ve been waiting a loong time for this to happen. and i almost blubbered when my sis and dad walked down the aisle but managed to keep it to a minimum(chin quivering and eyes tearing). yes. i be the emo one.
i was a lil glad when the church service was over because it meant that the opportunities to cry would be stopped.
big thanks to ros,eleta,zhen and jaya for coming for the church wedding=)
the dinner was held at the meritus mandarin. despite already having pre-booked online, the service at the front-desk was sloow and sluggish. it didn’t help that we were already LATE due to the massive traffic jam caused by weekend crowds and the pouring rain.
so paiseh cos my MUA Cherlyn and her friend Lydia(who was there to help because there were 4 of us to do)was already there.
anyway, just to let you guys know that if you ever need a MUA, Cherlyn’s very good. i was already convinced mostly by the pictures she posted up on her blog but having personally have her do my hair and makeup affirms my convictions 
apologies for only posting up the side view, does not do justice to cherlyn’s work but unfortunately alot of my zilian shots involve me grinning like a chesire cat so uh maybe i’ll post the rest in friendster or something.
am extremely happy and tired.
my brother-in-law(officially at last!) was so funny. at first i wanted to take pictures with him AND my sis. he didnt know, figuring that i must’ve been wanting to take pics only with my beloved sis. i told him “but you’re my real brother in law now!” and he went “oh” and stepped back in.
he’s still addressing my dad as ‘uncle’. but tried to correct himself later on in the night.
“hi! uh….dad!”
well its alright. he’ll spend the rest of his life being my dad’s son-in-law. plenty of time to practice.
he'd feel so good after that. nothing better than eating what you served.
belated celebratory post
Tuesday, September 26th, 2006yep, that's your new singapore idol. Hady Mirza, 26 years old. i knew he was gonna win, but not by a whopping 40% =D . my maid was disappointed. she voted 5 times for jonathan leong(whom by the way grated on my nerves by acting like he already won).
he's versatile and his voice is good. of course its no secret that i was rooting for him ever since jay 'uncle' lim got voted out(wasn't thinking that jay was gonna win anyway. he just didnt have the stage presence and ooomph despite having a great voice).
oh, and did i mention that my 2 sisters were rooting for jonathan too? HAH! screw racist crap or biased viewpoints. i support whoever had the most talent and jonathan's monotonous voice swung me over to supporting hady(only voted once for him and that was enough).
was quite surprised that an estimated 9000 people showed up. didn't think SI2 would be able to pull in such a sizeable crowd(minus the fans and family).
oh, forget about the whole idea of SI. i don't think there's gonna be another season and frankly i'm not disappointed at all, what with the recent onslaught of talent comps.
speaking of talent comps, here's a blurry picture of juz-b performing at the acappella concert i blogged about awhile back.
