here comes the bride..
omg.. a rather hectic weekend.. but soo good.
heres the jist of it.
:: friday .. total boringness at work.. i had lunch with lisa, she was saying i should go buy a second hand Honda S2000 with my savings.. cos apparently asians girls are impressed by such cars ..hrm.. maybe its not such a bas idea after all.. =p we spent the rest of lunch at flight centre booking her trip to new zealand.. mm snow...
afterwork i met up with lingy.. for no real reason other than we both had a lil bit of time to kill. was pretty fun.. she was pondering the future as usual.. she aims so high.. maybe thats why she achieves so much =) she is such a lil trooper. anyways i spent the time trying to wrap the wedding present for hunt and connie.. with soem wrapping paper i bought.. but stupid me accidently bought cellophane.. grr.. i then had to run down to the UTS union shop and buy some wrapping paper.. and the only size they had wasnt big enough.. grr.. so i patched up the wrapping a bit with the cover of the latest Vertigo, student newspaper.. i hope thats not too dodgey =p
anyhoos headed to Jannali next.. we were sposed to help setup the church hall.. but connie finished it before we got there.. so we went and played Baldurs Gate and NBA Street for a while =) went and took some stuff for the reception.. then jsut went to bed.
:: the big day!!!
.. i woke up heaps groggy.. cos id totally caught a cold from sleepin on hunt's couch in the ever cold Shire... *shivers* .. *sneezes* ...
got up pretty casually... Hunts boss told him we were sposed to go play golf in the morning.. but none of us made it up in time =p
we all got changed an packed into a stretch limo =) so uptown hehe. went cruising around Sutherland for a bit.... then rocked up to the church.. we were a bit early.. and connie was caught in traffic =p the ceremony was really beautiful .. ahh .. i wanna get married.. *sigh* looks like thats a fair way off =p
we milled around a bit.. and then got in the limo again and headed to Cronulla for the first reception. it was an incredibly good day for taking photos.. and we stopped by the beach to take photos of the bridal party n stuff frolicking and such around the place.. pretty silly at times =p
the main reception was at this fancy restaurant by the beach. it was mostly filled with connie's extended italian family =p its great that she keeps so close to her family though =) i was supposedly the MC.. but i hardly had to do anything.. havent spoken in front of that many ppl in a long time.. but i basically jsut felt like karaoke.. but a giant karaoke bar full of old italian ppl =p hehe. the food was awesome.. i had prawn entree and barramundi main.. mm.. the speeches were soo good.. i hope the one i do at my sister's wedding is half that good. deehunts was particularly good. there was much crying all around by many peoples..
later on.. we went and took some more sunset photos by the beach.. including some where the guys are all wearing all stars =) hehe pretty funny... such fun though. then hopped into a tarago and went back for the second reception.. aka. the young ppls reception =p this one was heaps more casual.. with jsut heaps of ppl in a hall .. i was totally exhausted.. andthe sicklyness was kicking in.. i pretty much jsut sat and drank hot tea the whole time. although i did catch up with a few ppl who i hadnt seen in a lil while.
needless to say.. i got home stupidly late.. and walked home in the freezing cold.. argh.. *moves "get my license" to the top of my todo list*
:: sunday... *staggers*
pretty much all i did today was wake up.. and i barely did that.. i am totally sick atm.. feels bad.
um.. thats it =p i think ill probly take a day off work tommolo.. i feel horribles. also im not doin anything at work anyways. =p
