We attended Faten and Anas’ wedding reception last weekend. Essentially, weddings will always be beautiful. No matter how you decide to have yours. It is us, who often forget ourselves and who often taint it with our endless selfish needs. :) Myself not excluded. Hehe. The reception was held at KGPA and I love its transparent tents! Beautiful.
Besides that, I have also mentioned in my previous entry on how I wanted to enjoy my weekend and I really did! Other than attending their reception, I managed to spend some quality time with my mom on Mother’s Day. I miss going out on weekends with her. We used to go out every Sunday before I got married. I know how I promised that things will never change but things have to change and it has changed. It’s so hard to understand why things have to be the way it is now but it is what it is. I have two families to ‘care’ for. Some weekends I’d be on the other side. It’s only fair that I divide my time equally because he has always been patient with me. So even though I still go out with my mom but it’s more like, once or twice a month now, not every weekend. Maybe it’s for the best – that way I won’t cause that much damage to her purse and we won’t stuff ourselves with too many doughnuts! Hehe. But last Sunday was an exception as it was Mother’s Day. I treated her with bottles of yummy-smelling things at Body Shop. And being the great mother that she is, she treated me and my sister in law as well. I feel blessed and lucky. :)
My random note for the day is this; I’ve written about it maybe a million times already but every time it affects me or the people close to me, it’s so hard to resist the urge to write about it again and again! I’m sure it’s no surprise to you and to me that we live in a world full of hypocrites. These hypocrites are different from those who bitch about you or hate the things you do ‘just because’ as I’ve mentioned in one of my previous entries. These are people who are super sugary sweet in front of you, yang ala ala best friend-material, yang sweet sampai boleh brain freeze BUT behind your back, there are just so many things they are not happy with you. You think that you’ve been nothing but nice to them, you think that you’ve been nothing but polite, courteous, jaga hati and then, wham!, you find out that they’re just good actors. Actually, you can categorize these people in the hybrid category. Because they’re a little bit of everything. I know we all have to play our role as hypocrites once in a while, it’s necessary in order to survive in this world but what I don’t understand is when you are SUPER DUPER sweet to someone when in actual fact you don’t like that person. Personally, I don’t do that. If I don’t really fancy an attitude, I avoid spending time with that person, I talk when absolutely necessary and most of the time I keep to myself. On a professional basis, complete avoidance is impossible. So you have to be professional, talk when you have to, discuss or do whatever it takes to get the work done but there’s no need to prolong the chit chat to a heart to heart talk right? I would rather be labeled as snobbish, reserved, garang or whatever rather than to go against my principle and be a hypocrite. Jadi polite je boleh tak? And leave all the cotton candies at home. But I know, even if you keep to yourself pun, it is another point of conversation jugak. Macam-macam lah, you can never please everybody.
Anyway, here are some random pictures from the wedding and all over.
