Serendipity- John Mayer

last saturday was my aunt's church wedding. i'll tell you why it's great. i'll tell you why i believe my lonely life can be a feasible and pleasant and beautiful one.

the ceremony went on like normal, and i read the scripture for my aunt and all. i was kind of nervous really, since i would say that i had never done many important things for other people too often. however, just when everyone was about to doze off, my future (now current) uncle decided to do something unrehearsed. he decided to tell everyone their love story.

basically, my uncle was a truck driver who had been in love with my aunt ever since he knew her. and for 10 years, he didn't dare to say a thing because my aunt's a degree-holding teacher; because he felt she would never love someone as lowly-educated as he was.
but by God's grace, they did. what touched me was that my aunt's 41 and my now uncle is already almost 50. it took them more than 10 years to come this far, to finally stand at the altar and pledge their lives to God and each other.
then my uncle sang her a cantonese song which i couldn't understand nuts of but made me cry anyway. then my grandma stood up halfway and applauded with tears in her wrinkled eyes. it was as though you could feel all the love my uncle had for my aunt, and it moved everyone in the church.
sure they can probably never have children and a lot of other parenting joys, but if i have to wait 3 decades for a man like that,

well, let's just say i now comprehend how it's humanly possible. :)

i honestly cannot see the kind of guy that i'll date in the future, if i ever do. sometimes i think i'm ruining it for myself with the partying and the drinking and the smokes, but i'll always convince my head into believing how a guy who really likes me will not care about all that.

so anyway, the players&swingers party was great. apparently joshua from I Not Stupid Too was spotted ferociously snogging a rather ugly girl (according to chee heng). then bao and i tagged along to ho ho's place. it was HUGE. his bedroom was twice mine. his living room was my whole house.
okay i'm pushing it a little. :P

and right now, haivng been inspired by jj's blog, i've decided to close this entry with a dedication to t108/t103, the 20 (or so) people whom i have cried, laughed and breathed with to the point of communal exhaustion.

crap, sth's wrong with photo blogger.
i'll try again later!

what matters though, is that i thank God for our class, that even though we've had our disputes and internal warfares, we have also our moments of sticking by each other, grinning faces and bawling together during very good movies :)
but of course, if i were to list all the good stuff down i'll take a semester! mass comm will never be the same without you guys:
