平靜的11月

经过两个旅行之后，又回到了普通的生活了。这个月整体还算平静吧，工作近来都比较忙，日语方面，学习的力度减少了。上一次在学校交的朋友都联络不上(不想和自已联係吧，italki所认识的朋友也没有消息了。告诉自已，如果不见努力，或许会把学的，真的还给老师了。

近来牙也有痛的感觉，来来去去的感觉，不想去看牙医，只有用司徒先生讲的原点，有一点效果吧，但好几个晚上，一躺下来，牙就痛，再不行，只能吃止痛药了。

旅行方面，在中国的行程后，有和同事讲起他们的经历。之后，感觉他们的想法和自已不太一样。有时候，人多的时候，旅行起来也有一定的不方便(互向等待)，下一次如果还有这样的旅行，就选择自已走比较好吧。

接下的旅行，要开始想去韩国了。幻想的12 月旅行，和真实的明年四月份，都值的慢慢去想，这次的旅行(5-15号)，冬天的旅行还是最开心的。(jeju island)

最后，今年已经很久没有运动了。现在的脚比较好了，是时候，去跑步或游泳了。告诉自已，什麽时候，都要努力自已，没有朋友陪，就自已陪自已吧。父母开心最重要，其他方面，能省则省。世上没有过不去的路，忍忍就过了。一個人也可以很開心

God bless all the time 慧台

Alan’s wedding (nov 2016)

5th November 2016

Today as a Saturday is my long time buddy (Alan’s) wedding. he and his wife has been in a low profile relationships for several years before deciding to tie the knob in this year ( I remember seeing his wife once during the 2011 GE , at the workers party rally). Today I still felt thankful to be able to attend their small scaled wedding ceremony

In the morning, I took some breakfast before going to Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium to meet Alan (at 0830am). Two of his friends came around 0900am. We were being briefed on what to expect on the birthday lunch later (although the bridegroom wasn’t very sure on many details).

I went to the ballroom with his friends (Seth). The ballroom is relevant big, but there is only 6 tables presume there will be an owner table, one table for relatives of the bridegroom, 3 tables for the relatives of the bride, and the last table for “friend”.

Since Alan did not prepare vegetarian and Muslim food for the lunch (additional cost), so I can’t eat at the lunch buffet. Alan decide to treat me to early lunch outside (near his house ) at around 11am , I fetch the bridegroom , his sis and his mom to the wedding venue

The wedding started around 1230pm, I was supposed to be tasked to take care of Alan’s mother , but in the last minute , Alan’s elder sister decide to do the job instead . Since I had nothing to do, I started going around taking photos. Almost all of the people attending were relatives (20odd for the bride side) and around 10 from the groom side) to my surprise, only three friends were invited (and one of them is me). I didn’t see any beautiful ladies (only two teenage girls) and the rest elderly (sad).

The lunch started around 1245 hours. It started with solemnization ceremony, followed by the tea ceremony. Fortunately, there weren’t any hiccup as feared by Alan in the morning. After that, there is the buffet for an hour or so.

The event ends around 1430 hours. Both Alan and his bride looks for places to take photo, but then the hotel had very few places to be able to take nice photos, finally the session ends at 1545 hours.

Looking backwards, it’s a good experience trying to help out in such joyful event. From the couples feedback that they are too busy that they are unable to eat anything on the table. Things would be better if there are a few more “brothers and sisters”. After this round, I think there won’t be any marriage to attend this year or next. Tianwei’s marriage would probably come in the year 2018. My marriage? No hope ..

Wedding aside, my car experiencing some problem for the third times in recent months, hope the car do spoilt less often. But then I won’t be driving to Malaysia in the year end thing (taking bus would be a better option)

I should stop here for now

一個人也可以很開心，GOD bless all the time 慧台
