Wedding Receptions

Wedding receptions are synonymous with school holidays. No weekend passes by without a single kenduri being held. Last weekend, we attended one in Taman Tenaga (previous neighbour and the colour theme was green). Today, there's one in Bandar Baru Bangi (ex-colleague's daughter got married). Next Sunday, a neighbour's son will end his bachelorhood. Come Dec, there are already three receptions in line. Putrajaya, Kuala Kangsar and Kajang. God willing, we'll be there.

Today, we got boiled eggs as the parting/thank you gift from the bride's family. Haven't gotten one for quite sometime since family nowadays are proned to have other type of gifts to be given away eg cakes or other mementos. It's interesting too, to find out that some of our friends are also the friends of the host. It's a small world after all.

With all these weddings taking place and me being invited, it just shows one thing.. Yours truly is getting older...Hmm...

Barack Obama, 44th USA President!

I just need to post tonite before the next day arrives, just to make sure that a historic moment like this is not missed by lamanoflife. Nay, I'm not an American but nevertheless, like many others worldwide, watched McCain conceeding defeat to Obama, and followed by the latter's speech in Chicago over CNN.
The results truly is a history.
