Some facts about Li Min & I :-
Knew Li Min when we were both 5 years old.
Friends of nearly 26 years.
She stayed in NZ & me in Abu Dhabi now...
I find that our friendship was one of those which we find hard to come by in anyone's journey in life. Probably you will find a handful throughout your journey. And she is the ONE in my journey in my life. hahah....it might sound as though we are lovers, like she and I always joked.
When I heard that she was preparing to get married, I was more than happy. But it also took me to reality as she is now moving on to the next "stage" in life......She and I were always "separated" as she had moved to New Zealand during University days- but distance never kept our friendship apart. Occasionaly, she does come back for her holidays, had fun times, driving down to Melaka with Han San, kena saman for "fast driving"..... :)
There were lots of beautiful memories but in this blog I just want to highlight some unforgettable ones which I think will be remembered for good.....There was a time where both of us just "had" enough of our employers and we called it quits. I flew to NZ for 3 weeks, we went holidaying in Christchurch, Wellington & Queenstown. That's where I learned to be a bum....Nice !!! :P
Then when I was in Gulf Air, she flew to Bahrain. My parents, she and Ivy (one of my GF friends) we all went for holidays Cairo (Egypt) trip. It was also another unforgettable trip. I always laughed at her for the way she was looking down at taxi driver's shoes and pitying him and the very next day, the girls refused to pay an extra ONE Egyptian pound to another taxi driver...ahhahaa.....that was a personal joke which I think she and I will never forget....
One of the years when she & honey came back to M'sia for holidays....Enjoying themselves with Cheese Crab near Kepong area...
School days was even more fun!! She was my walking partner to school. We had stories to share everyday. What is growing up without sharing boys' stories. Thinking about it is putting a smile on my face now....... Unfortunately I didn't manage to bring to Abu Dhabi some old pics....She and I will also chat for hours on the local phone cos the phone rate was RM0.20 flat for unlimited hours....we will just have toilet breaks in between and continue talking!!!!! My mom often asked, how come we see each other in school but yet we still have so much to talk......
Our latest meetup one month before her big day.....in Melbourne August 2009....
Me, Li Min & her cousin...Me, Limin & both of her cousins... enjoying ourselves with Pho in Richmond...
Taking every opportunity to snap pics...even in the car....
On the 08 Sept 09, the couple & I went through some final rundown of both the chapel & dinner event. Spent some quality time together...
Then finally, it's her big day..... 09 . 09. 09. Like many other couples, she prepared her wedding way ahead..... I happily donned my "Chief Bride's Maid" lilac dress bought by Li Min....This was the second piece that she got for me as the first one didn't fit.....Thanks Li MIn!!!
The day started off with "cip san leong" - think the hurdles were kinda "easy" for honey to go through...was expecting of more dramatic actions....ahahhaa....so cruel of me...hopefully honey didn't see this...by the ways....all of her close frens in Kl calls her husband a.k.a Kevin - honey....
Then the tea ceremony between both of their families, and then we proceeded to the Chapel ceremony in Nikko hotel....which everyone has said was so romantic!!!!......the chapel facing the sea & all....& the highlight of the ceremony was when they exchanged vows.......when a number of us were close to tears....YES ....CLOSE...hehehhe.....The weather was lovely.......with blue skies...it went on well with releasing of baloons, photo taking....
The event ended with a wide spread of buffet choice dinner in Westin Hotel....And I loved the "surprise" event where the guests were not aware of Li Min's & honey's performance......it was a dance they've prepared for half a year!!! Their live performance were even held in Ipoh & Hong Kong!!! (during their dinner event in Hong Kong)Both of your effort were worth it!!
Overall, I hope the rest enjoyed the romantic wedding as much as I did,I sincerely wish them happily ever after...Once again, my heartiest congratulations!!! Huggsss & kisses!!!....
