So hello, I have been semi-enjoying my break so far.
First week of the break was spent stoning with you guys, so there isn't much to report over there.
However, the weekend proved to be exciting with the wedding of a cousin to tend to. Never had I attended a wedding which I was so closely involved with, in terms of logistics and financial outlay. Of course, being the starving artist that I am, I managed to reclaim my expenses later on.
The usual weddings we might be familar with would involve high quantities of the 'glam' factor; not so for this. Small town people are contented with simpler ceremonies. While saying that, make no mistake that I am one bit condescending in that statement.
The absense of the 'glam' factor made things fun. The groom's mother had to cook the food herself, with the aid of my mother and several other of their cronies. Just the usual standard fare of fried beehoon (炒米粉), some curry chicken (加里鸡) and some miscellaneous dishes which I won't really be bothered mentioning here.

As usual, there was the pre-wedding-night-dinner where intimate friends, bride's family sans the bride and us feasted to some simple fare. I was pretty surprised that the dinner lasted until sometime around 11pm. Note: Dinner, not gathering. I was amazed by how much food my aunt managed to keep rolling out of the kitchen at such an ungodly hour. See guys, that's what your mom would do for your wedding.
My friend, Asyraf toted along as he has not attended a kampung wedding prior to that. Turns out his shots were better than mine, for obvious reasons.***
The actual dinner was held at a school hall. Old school school hall. The stage was made of wood, it was hot and sweaty, and I had to go home halfway to shit.
I sent this to Jo Kien while I was exercising my bowel muscles. "I was shitting halfway, and this cockeral cockle doodle doo-ed right outside the window. Scared the shit out of me." At least I could give my muscles a rest. Heh.
While totally unrelated to the paragraph above, the food was good. The sharks' fin soup was a wicked sick. With one of my cousins not eating sharks' fin soup and only 7 people at the table, I was quite full already after that second dish. Fish was excellent, steamed codfish. The rest was the standard fare of fried rice, some prawns and chicken et cetera.
All in all, it was a nifty wedding. While somewhat energy draining, the slower pace of it makes it all so fun.
Plan your own weddings. Its alot more fun. Its also a whole lot cheaper. RM480 per table at your friendly local Hicksville.
Also, my cousin gave me a nice big red packet, which makes things even better.
