Sighz… 2 days after Dion & Swan’s SG Wedding. They’re off to my FAVOURITE country in the world– ITALY!!! Ack. So envious. well well..
Anyway, quite tired out this Monday. Reached home at around 2am on Sat, then on Sunday sommore rushed into JB. but am glad i did that lah, din see my family for about 2-3 weeks liao. won’t be seeing this this coming weekend as well. So it’s worth the rush and tiredness..
Ok. So the wedding. KL first. KL was pretty fun. It was SO nice of the couple to sponsor our bus ride and hotel stay! Made new and really fun frens in Cindy, Wati, Alvin & Marcus– went to zouk with them as well. WE even checked out Poppy Garden, which was a really cool place to be, eventho it was sooo freaking hot! ARGH. Ok. So the wedding. It was held at Bukit Jalil. Went ok lah, sommore had 3 types of performances. The shiong ti all din go, so it was up to the jie mei to go around with them to yum seng. so funny. first time doing that. but quite fun lah. the wine was fantastic, so after all the stressful coordination, we just drank and drank. hehehe. erm… basically, shopped a lot, i think i spent around RM1000 in that weekend! Bought quite a lot of stuff and even had my nails done by the sweetest guy (he’s gay btw)
Ok. SG Wedding. Now, THAT was the highlight. Plans for the ‘fetch the bride’ stages were only done the week itself but thanks to the ingeniouity (sp) of the jie meis, we came up with a sure-fire way of making the day fun while getting our huge angbao. Will tell u more now (some stuff kopi-righted, please use as much as possible on future grooms).
When we checked in, we refused to let Dion or any of the guys know wat room Swan was in. Mwahahaha.. Even went to the extend of blindfolding the cameramen (which, in respect to CIndy, i shall leave it as it is. hahaha) We had 3 stages (since we did it in Hilton, this was a good strategy).
Stage 1: Hotel Lobby (which by the way, we kept getting chased by the security coz of the noise we made. Lousy hotel!). Dion had to answer two questions pertaining to Swan. Get it wrong, do a forfeit (which by the way, ALL the answers were wrong throughout ALL the stages). So first forfeit, pluck 8 hairs from 8 different places of the body. Hahaha.. They of coz went for the easiest spots first- the eyebrows, the hands, the legs, the fingers. then at the last two stage- stumped! Dunno where to pluck. Attempted plucking from nose, ears, chin. hahaha. in the end, someone even took off their socks so can pluck the toe hair. hahaha. (Pics to come- exceeded number of uploaded pics for this mth liao). Second forfeit, carry dion and run around the lobby shouting "Dion’s getting married! Dion’s getting married!" and Dion must shout "Yes yes yes!" (which in the end, they had to whisper so that we dun get chased again)
Ok. Done. All in the lift now. Onto Stage 2. Outside the suite. 3 questions + 1 immunity challenge (which by the way, it was just to make him do it. the immunity challenge doesn’t immune him from anything. mwahahaha) This is the eating stage. "Suan", "Tian", "Ku", "La". For Suan (Sour), they had to eat a whole lemon (btw, i just need to give Dion a GREAT BIG PAT on the back- he took the task and just did it. FANTASTIC. Almost too boring, but good! hahha). For Tian, they had to eat a piece of bread covered with 2 packets of sugar and 1 mini bottle of honey. For Ku, they had to eat a fifth of the Bitter Gourd that we prepared. For La, we specially concocted a jalapeno pepper + Wasabi + Mustard on Dry Bread. Hahaha.
Stage 3: In the suite, but outside the final door. So. This one simple and straightforward. 1) One of the shiong ti to pretend to be the pole while Dion does the pole dance around him (can’t get the image outta my head! Too funny!). 2) One of the shiong ti to pretend to be swan while dion sings ‘her’ a song (which by the way was ‘Yue Liang Tai Piao We De Xing".
FINALLY, Ang pao time. Wah. Dion very generous. He got in with $900 (supposed to be $888 lah- keep the change). Finally it was on to the rest of the day. Or so we thought. FIrst time in history!!! We reached Dion’s place and were locked out of the house!!!! Stupid shiong tis made Swan answer 3 questions or do the forfeit (which she got it all wrong btw). They tried their very best to do the suan tian ku la (left out the suan tho). They stole our bitter gourd and made us eat (which Cindy bravely did it), made some maggi mee concoction thing to represent spicy (i drank lah), then some kueh with a pot of honey (which they stole as well from us!) which audrey and a few others ate. hahaha. Ok. So on to the day. After tea reception, took a few pics at Esplanade and ended up taking a few pics at SMU, the place they met… blah blah blah. Rested in the hotel (so nice to bath and just relax in the bathrobe). At night, dinner went really well. Dion read some love letter to Swan tat was Oh-So-Touching! at the end of it all, both of them were pretty high. I think Dion was even more stoned than he ever was. hahaha.. Swan was like just high and very tired. So we put her to bed and got Dion into the shower. As we were leaving, we said our gooodbyes and knocked on the bathroom door but dion din reply; PANIC struck– we thought he had fainted or fell asleep or wat… got the captain to open the door and when all jie meis had cleared the space, the shiong tis "chiong" into, only to be welcomed by Dion bathing! hahahahahaha… TAT was funny! Laughed until cannot laugh liao. I bet the shiong tis had nightmare that night! hahaha…
