love is all around

Saturday. 6 a.m.

A text came in. “Wake up princess.”

(uh? But. But I only managed to sleep at 4 a.m….)

Zzzzzzzzz…

MBA rang twice to make sure I get my arse off bed and ready for our roadtrip in baju kurung. Our friend was getting married that morning in Kuantan and we had to be there by 10 a.m.

Somehow we had time for some kuih and coffee AND made it on time. Was it the Swedish marquee? Hahahaaaa… MBA, why don’t you stop being steeuwpidd..

After the nikah ceremony, we checked in, waited for whywhenitsme, then hit the pool. MBF told me that I was lucky because the weather was gloomy the days before that. The sun was out. Despite the brief rain and despite the pool bar being swarmed by loud Singaporeans with American accent, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Had a good 30 minutes in the sun on the sun lounger then headed to the beach with Shay. I’ve heard about the Teluk Chempedak beach being unsafe and at first only went in ankle deep before joining them. We were being competitive annoying children; it was hilarious. I hauled myself out of the sea when something bit my arm twice. Ick.

Did some catching up with JODB, his lovely wifey and their super adorable all chilled out baby ZA. Met more friends at the only Stabux in Kuantan after that. Only met hollaback boi and WH at the reception, as he was busy with Fashion House earlier on.. hehee.. We got curious thus drove around to find some little kopitiam, only to find the bride, groom, bridesmaid and best man having drinks at the same place. Kuantan isn't that big, eh?

I was in excellent company throughout the trip.

To Ms O and Baby,

Congratulations are in order. For finding and loving each other and the solemn promise to make it work. Beautiful wedding, my wishes for a more beautiful marriage. Truly delighted for the both of you. Muaks!
