Updates
I have not have the time to do an update on myself. Been very busy with both work and family matters.
For my cousin, Leigh's wedding, I was tasked to be the "boy" to open the car door for the groom. As my nephew is of the Chinese zodiac sign that clashes with the wedding day, I was made the scapegoat to do this task. So here I am with the red tray and auspicious oranges to welcome the groom.
After agreeing with the "opening door" red packet, the groom is one step nearer to meeting even worse events. The all-girls team is well prepared to make his day. The day didn't end on a really happy note because the groom's all-guys team weren't very sporty. They were obviously late and kept demanding us to quickly let them receive the bride so that they can fetch the bride to the groom's house on time. The all-guys team weren't very polite about some of their comments and that angered some of the ladies as well as my mum. I, too, suffered on that day too. The mahjong session after all the rituals and ceremonies wiped out all my red packet. My cards ain't lousy, just that I am unlucky. My cards are good, but can never win. So I am going to quit mahjong for the rest of the year.
The wedding diner is something I really look forward to because my grand-uncle and grand-auntie are here from Hong Kong to attend my cousin's wedding diner and also to visit all of us. Here are the pictures of them during the wedding diner.
I felt ashamed that I could not entertain them during the weekdays as I am working. Weekends were all planned by my 2nd Auntie, so all the outings are in huge groups. So the chance and time to interact with them obviously decreased with the increased number of people. Really feel bad not being able to spend time with them. Whenever I visit Hong Kong, they will always make sure I am well taken care of. Hopefully when I visit Hong Kong this coming July, I can have at least 2 days to accompany them.
I have my in-camp training from 10 Dec to 19 Dec, so can take the time to recharge myself. Still looking around for overseas conference to attend so that I can take the time to travel a little as well.
Will update once I have the time and also the pictures.
