Always The Bridesmaid..

My friend, Joyce just asked me to be her "zi-mui".

This is the second wedding I'll be attending this year. AND the second wedding that I have been asked to be the zi-mui / bridesmaid. I hope that it doesn't have anything to do with that tradition of "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue." Me being the "something old" ?? That is a rather depressing thought. Hey, I should be privileged that a friend thinks that I am important enough to be by her side, on one of the most important days of her life. That's what I should be thinking! But .. always the bridesmaid, never the bride? How many times is once too many?

Irene is getting married on Valentine's Day. Romantic, isn't it? And it's at The Fullerton Hotel, one of the grandest hotels around. She's getting married to Jeremy, her boyfriend of two years? She's a very pretty girl, very petite, with huge eyes and the pinkest complexion. She adores pink so it's little surprise that I've been asked to get a pink dress. Or a champagne-gold one - that is her colour scheme for the wedding. I'm still looking.


Joyce's special day is on the 3rd October. It was her grandmother's funeral that brought her and Aaron together. A sad occasion with a happy ending. And I'm glad because she is one of the nicest girls I know and she deserves to be blessed . And Aaron makes her very happy.



To my two friends, Irene and Joyce : Thank you for the honour and thank you for being my friends.
