4 December 2006 - my wedding big day!!

4am - 三梳
auspicious time to "comb" my long long hair. The "package" include a small red pail, a red comb, a red ruler, a tube of color threads and needles, and a piece of red paper with the wordings to say for hair combing.
Lit the two red candles and started the 10 minutes hair combing, there were only 3 of us awake at that time which is me, ah-yi & yi-ma.


7.15am
It did not take long before my alarm went off at 7.15am.Woke up and had a nice warm bath and breakfast that consist of a hot cuppa of milo and a bun.

7.45am
Amy arrived 15 minutes earlier! I actually asked her to come at 8am, she is so professional! woke the sisters up for them to get ready and got the room to myself =>
First, Amy did my hairdo before applying make up on my sweet face =p changed into my wedding gown and touch up to look even better.
At the same time, the sisters are preparing. . . .







9am
I am alone in the room, felt bored and anxious at the same time, took my HP and called to Gin's DID, cos she is the only one who can talk to me. . . the rest are outside in the living room already! Chat halfway and heard car horns that horned continuously! Anxiety is here!!!

Then, they went to 1st floor and some of his brother went into the big rubbish chute, wanted to catch some cockroahes, haha, but the chute was too clean already, none found.
Then they went to the market wanted to buy some tadpoles, but sold out! hahahaha!!!
In the end, they came back with no choice to ask for some water, where they had 4 cups of each taste, Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy. Initally wanted to mix, but scare some of their stomach cannot tahan, so seperate loh, , , see we are so kind. . . =>
