Wedding bells…

I was invited to a wedding dinner, one of my ex-students’, but the date coincided with my birthday, the 2nd of December, and actually, I was planning to go out for something a little more special than the usual that night, plus Melissa’s friend was coming to town the evening before…so I told him that I would not be able to make it. On second thoughts, I felt that it would not be very fair to the very nice boy who had the heart to extend his invitation to this (mean) old teacher of his from long ago and besides, I had gone to all the rest – unless I was out of town or I was really tied up with something else that could not be avoided. In the end, I decided that we would go for lunch for a simple birthday celebration and I would go to the dinner that night, leaving my missus, Melissa and her friend to their own devices.

So, there I was that night with the handsome groom and his beautiful bride…

…at the grand ballroom of one of the leading hotels in town…

The food was good…

– the usual courses…

…that one would expect as such banquets…

…and that was why I did not bother to snap the photographs of each and every course that night and just relaxed, enjoying the food and the company – a few of my ex-colleagues who were invited as well and all my ex-students around.

Thank you so much, Leh Ho & Ing Siew, for the invitation. Congratulations once again, all my good wishes and may God bless you two with abundant joy in the years ahead as man and wife. Cheers!!!
