Planned events that really come true

 

Quite a few events have happened since I last posted here.

I was still hanging around down under, was initially planning to return to sg by 1st week of Aug, but i did not book my flight nor did i pack either. Instead, time was wasted just waking up late, watching dvd series, surfing the net n aimlessly passing time, just waiting for the weekend whereby most of my friends/ex-colleagues were free and could spend time with me on weekends. I have pretty much settled all that i needed, sold as much rubbish as I could, i was more like a sitting dead duck, waiting for someone to call to buy some rubbish off me... Then came one weekend,at the end of August, where everyone was busy and I did absolutely NOTHING except to watch at least 4 movies a day. Just imagine, everyone else goes to work for 8 hours a day but i spend my time watching movies... after that weekend which i continuously watch several movies each day, and absolutely NOBODY called to purchase anything, I finally decided, I should permanently leave Perth in the next few days. I booked my flight on tuesday nite and flew out that friday nite.

As soon as i got to sg, i started planning again. I couldn't unpack permanently as there was too much stuff and there was too little space... i was again living off my luggage but this time my luggage was in the living room. I started looking for jobs but in vain, nothing came up. I did not get a single response from anyone. I then decided that I should consider the 20th sept 2009 date being such a nice number... I hurried off making plans and looking the possibility of making my ROM on that day. There were several things that was involved to be legally married. I was lucky that my aunty was a solemniser and could accomodate me for anytime on 20092009, eventhough she had to do 9 other couples on that very same day. I just wanted to get the paperwork done and thought maybe my parents wouldn't be interested in rocking up since it was such a hassle for my dad to travel. Then came the issue that TT had to go to the states. I got everything ready, ie paperwork and attendance at registrar office but I had to tell everyone that its on standby, pending on if TT arrived back from the states in time. He was due to fly back at midnight on the night before and any extended trip/missing his flight/flight delays (apparantly its quite common with united airlines to have delays) would have caused the entire event to not work out. I wanted to book a venue, but obviously since I was so last minute, every single place was fully booked out. I thought it was a good thing that I didn't book a venue since if it didn't happen, the restaurant would be so pissed at me that they lost opportunity for more business. Even up till the night before, I couldn't sleep at 2am as I was so worried that TT was not back from the states yet. I called/smsed and left voice msgs... but got no replies from him. My cousin wanted to come but I didn't want too many pple to come as both the families have NEVER met. I didn't want any confusion if my cousin came and my MIL/FIL thought it was my brother. After all, I had to invite my aunty (and her family) as she was the solemniser and then my grandpa.

Everything happen as planned. However, it was rather awkard as both families have not met and I did not introduce them either as my parents were late, causing the ROM ceremony to be delayed. We had to hurried off to PJ @ KeppelClub as I had made reservation for lunch. Till this day, I think both families have not been introduced... sigh... i wonder whether i should take the initiative to do something,
