wedding dinner


10 mins after the jog, i went for a wedding dinner of a distant relative whom i forgotten their names already. They are so distant that i don't know how they are related to me. To me, it is just another wedding dinner, but i know to them it is a day that changes their lives.

I always dislike having a party or celebration at night. It never fails to give me the uneasiness and unhappiness. The feeling is like once the celebration ends tonight, everything will end. Perhaps it was the disgust of people waiting impatiently for the function to end quicky so that they can go home to sleep that gave me the dislike. I just don't like having happy events to be held at night. I never fail to avoid such functions as much as i can.

Owl teacher from mshs once told us that she found something very weird in our chinese custom. For chinese happy things like wedding dinner, we all like to celebrate it in an enclosed secluded area at night; while sad things like a funeral, we like to make it so big by playing percussions and make a parade out of it. Compare to the malays, weddings should be like them, held in the open during the day, playing drums so that the whole neighbourhood will know of the joyful occasion; whereas funeral they bury quitely at night.

I wonder how will it be like if someone has a wedding lunch instead. I think i will enjoy the lunch more. It will be fun.
