I need a panadol

Yesterday, i accompanied Mak to a wedding function. Boy, how I regret!~ Going to wedding function is not exactly my favourite past time. I would tried to think of thousands of excuses, just so that I dun have to go. With the exception of my best friends' & buddies'. It's all because of one experience at one wedding that made me confused plus fuming mad. The wedding arrangement was such that man and woman was supposed to eat separately. As I dun think the guests were informed, Ah bee was my companion. To my surprise, we were told sternly by God-knows-who, I think, that such rule imposed. Ironically, when I looked around, there were some tables that was filled with couples. Imagine, Ah Bee was the other table with strangers ,alone, it made my heart cried that I told myself, I will never go to wedding functions unless absolutely necessary.

But because Mak needs a companion, I gladly went, partly also because it can be the topic of the day.

The wedding function was fine. Rather simple. The family and the couple was dressed in blue. The regret part is neither about the bride or groom nor about the fact that I had to be a companion to my mum.

In my 27 years of living in this whole wide world, I have never experienced watching a kuda kepang performance. Heard of them but never see at all. So when it happened right, in front of my eyes (Mak had to chose the seats right in front of the dais), it was the most uncomfortable thing and I couldn't even swallow my food in peace. I will not elaborate what made me so uncomfortable. Each time when the whatever-it-is-called went GONG! My heart just stopped and I could feel my blood rushing to the heart.

When we got back, I caught a glimpse of the show from the kitchen, it seemed that most of the guests were watching the performance instead of the Raja Sehari.

Poor thing, they are not in the centre of attraction at all. And it is supposed to be THEIR big day.
