It's seriously been a stressful weekend for me. Me and Sir Terrible Memory went to his friend's wedding in Sungai Petani, Kedah and while I do sincerely like the couple very much, I did not enjoy the trip at all. It was a mess. Too many, 'Please tell who and who this' and as you know when people pass too many messages around, somewhere along the line is going to get lost and people are going to get misinformed. The guy that was suppose to keep Sir TM informed, forgot so many details, his wedding would be one I rather skip and not go. No offense to anyone.
We rushed down from Penang to SP around 9pm on Friday, we were suppose to start the journey by 7pm+ but as usual, there will always be people who can't tell the time or is not bothered to be punctual. We call it, the Malaysian timing as people tend to be always late and it annoys the shit out of me. It's as if, they don't even have enough respect for us to bother being punctual. Thanks!
We rushed from Penang to Sungai Petani (45 minutes) and the back to Penang (45 minutes) the next morning and then back to Sungai Petani (45 minutes) again in the afternoon for the 'fetch the bride'. Then on Sunday, we drove the the borders (45 minutes) and into Thailand (one hour or more) in a van. Here's where the interesting part starts.
For one, Sir Terrible Memory lived up to his name and left my favourite sunglasses in the van. When I realize that my sunglasses was not in my bag and my gut feeling telling me it was gone and I was never going to find it again, I ended up crying loudly in the side walk of Hadyai. I had never been more disappointed or as angry with him as I was that day. We ended up spending our evening waiting under the thunderstorm drenched from head to toe to find out if my sunglasses was still in the van. Of course, it wasn't. Truthful people don't exist anymore, D'oh.
I cried like an idiot and didn't bother to cover the mess of my face all the way back to the car. Not to mention, I ate some bad food, was having diarrhea and was down with a terrible migraine. Yay me! Didn't I mention before that I FUCKING HATE DAY TRIPS?
I was still stressed from all the driving and then some "unneccessary" driving, my hair was coming off in chunks, the weather is freaking hot, his friends can't plan to saves their life, believe it or not, we spent over 2 hours getting to Thailand and we only manage to walk around for less than 2 hours by ourselves and spent a good chunk of it waiting for people to gather cause there was always people going M.I.A , on top of all that I have to go to work on Monday and this week is suppose to be a crazy week at work and then all this.
I bought 2 sunblocks from boots at 250baht each and cashew nuts for my parents. That is all.
I enjoyed the trip as much as I enjoyed my time at our General Hospital pulling out my wisdom tooth. Given a choice, I rather have my wisdom tooth, yes all four of them, pulled out all over again than to go for that stupid trip.
*The on the trip from Thailand (1 hour or more) to the borders, back to Sungai Petani (45 minutes) and then back to Penang (45 minutes) all in a day. Can I get my medal now?
*45 minutes if you're driving at 110-140km/h, and our way back to SP, the customs queue was as long as the queue if LV decides to have a 50% sales on all items. Imagine.
I acknowledge that people forgets things all the time and that Sir Terrible Memory has been trying hard to make it up to me. I really love him for that *sigh* At least we have some nice pictures to show for the trip.
Two of my favourite parts of the wedding was the flower arrangements. Very sweet and pretty. The flower corsage was another favourite, they used fake flowers instead of the real things and with our heat, humidity, the real stuff would have died-ed, wilted and turned brown, the fakies remained pretty :D
Don't worry Sir TM, me still love you
I stood at the bottom of the stage and oogled up at the pretty cake. Gold, Lacey and flowery. Me likey; Me and Sir TM during the dinner. I must have eaten off all my lipstick by then.
Dessert, little cubes of creamy ice cream, my first time seeing these and definitely liked. Except for the few weird flavours.
