old folks tale

home finally from the birthday dinner of my grand-uncle...woot!it was rather interesting when you're seated with a table of 7 elderly (not forgetting1 forty+ auntie & me,a 20 yr old and a lil 15 yr old amatuer) listening to what they have got to say during the 9 course (i think) dinner...and you actually discover they do gossip,laugh over lame jokes etc

one example was...this distant relative of mine, a female came in, greeted them then went to sat over the other table...then you hear them speaking in dialect...

grand-auntie A : oh my...look at how her figure has expanded...her face still looks the same but the figure is all gone...

grand-auntie B: ya ya i agree...last yr saw her she was much slimmer...now she ballooned up so much...not pretty anymore

...

i was so amazed...like usually u hear them say oh u've grown into such a fine young lady...but now when u listen again they were actually talking behind ur back...oh my~

then there was this topic about the cost of wedding dinners...well u know how they calculate by how much a banquet would cost per table sort...so they were discussing the previous wedding they went...the banquet cost 600+ each table...then another mention about one which cost 1000+...then they were like "wow the thousand dollar one must sharpen the teeth and all...eat up all the cutleries and perhaps the table too..."

dot...dot...dot... and i was thinking only youngsters are lame but actually old ppl can be just as lame too lol~

at the same time,there was this wedding dinner going on too...aww!don't you just love weddings?the wedding cake...the gowns...the pure and holy feeling...the love songs that is played throughout the dinner... *heart melts*

i know i do...somehow they never fail to revive my faith in love...they just makes me go all dreamy, fantasizing how my wedding would be like in future,who would be the one holding my hand walking down the aisle with me...it allows all my hopes and desires to surge out from their secret hiding place and make me feel there's actually love around and that i could fall in love all over again with that special someone...and it makes me want to find tt special someone soon and get married asap lol!it's madness i agree but that's just what weddings do to me...grrr!!!the effect is overwhelming but yet sweet to the core that ur knees goes weak at the thought of it...sighs!hate it yet love it...

but but but...can you imagine in yrs to come when one by one ur friends start getting engaged/married etc...and u're still single?!!!yikes...attending those ceremonies alone would be disastrous!!!yikes...i won't want tt to happen bleahh!and i suppose everyone would be asking "where's ur bf?","when's ur turn?" blah blah blah...so scary~!!!

oh nevermind shall not dash everyone's dream...think about white weddings later k?!how you would want ur wedding to be like...etc etc. awww so sweet...i'm melting away with each thought...
i wish i could but i have a stupid econs test i need to study for #*&^%! dada all!have a wonderful night...love ya all~may cupid strike u down if he hasn't *muacks*
