The Pity Groom & Team...


Never be a Chinese groom!

If you can't help and still need to be a Chinese groom, then take my advice:

Be Prepared!!!

I just came back from my cousin's wedding in Penang. It was fun! I mean the game of playing the groom was fun! hehe.... Check this out!

My other cousins (the bride's sisters) had been preparing for the games a day before the wedding ceremony.We had a small meeting before the groom and his team arrived. In the Chinese cultures, the groom and his friends need to fulfill some of the missions before getting the bride. So, we couldn't let the groom team to get the bride easily. hehe....

As soon as they'd arrived, we locked the bride room's door quickly and ran down the stairs. They were served with foods and drinks. After the meal... hehehe... SHOW TIME!!!

"Please pick one of this red paper and do whatever it has written", we said cheerful. 11 of us were standing closely to one and another to block the entrance of the stairs.
The groom did as what we had requested. He randomly picked a piece of paper.


Mission 1:
Pluck 80 hairs from the legs.

Guys: " WHAT???!! 80 hairs???", they shouted so loudly.
Sadly, they don't have choice. Either to leave or to do it. haha...


They were discussing....trying to pick the first person to do the task.

We were so kind, borrow them a scissors. haha...

One of the guys was being forced. The camera man even joined us..hohoho.. ;D

Mission 2: Show the word "I LOVE YOU" by using body language.

"Ok. This is easy. Everyone...show them!!!", they replied in relief.


They were so cute... :D

Because of their cuteness, we allowed them to go upstairs to continue another task.

Picking another hard question..

Examining the mission....


Mission 3: Write the word "I LOVE YOU" to the bride using mouth.

Guys: "Uhh??? I never try it leh...", the groom started to sweat.


He did well! He cheated us!


Good job! *Clap hands*


Mission 4: Read the promise in the paper that had been prepared aloud to the bride. Then signed it.

Guys: "Oh no... Everything that have been written are for the advantage of the bride!", they started arguing. Anyway, the groom still didn't have the choice but to read it loudly.


We passed the 'promise paper' to him.


He really said it to the bride. I hope he said it sincerely...


Next, we painted their lips with lipstick, including the groom to leave a kiss mark on the pink paper as a proof.

My cousin did the job.. painting the guy's lips :)

He kissed the pink paper.

Then, they handed the promise to the bride. Wow! Full of kisses.. ;)


The proof


Final Mission: Find the bride's door key in the ice orange juice packets and drink it.

Guys: "What??? Drink it? Did you kill the germs? I'll get sick if I drink it!", they complained.

Searching searching....


Where is the key??


Is this the key??

oH...He got the key! He was wearing the heels for the bride. lovely..


Finally.....


He successfully got her and kissed....


Honestly, the groom and his team were really good in working on the tasks. This was the toughest tasks I've ever seen in my life. haha.... Good job!!! And I hope the groom will treat my cousin well after this. Love her with all your heart. God bless both of you... :D

Fate Or You???

We choose our own path. Do you agree it? Or do you think that everything in our lives are fated? Or the God has chosen the road for us?
This is a very interesting question and I've asked some of my friends. Most of them had answered me, "Yes, we choose our path, not fate". "90% of hard work and 10% of luck", Macro even answered me this.






I had just watched Spiderman 3 couple of days ago. It was a nice movie. Have you watched it? The movie has taught me something which is good- we always have the choice in choosing our own path. It is all about Peter Parker, the spiderman who has suddenly changed and transformed into a black custom spiderman. The transformation has enhanced his power but it changes him totally-to the bad. He knows the effect of the black custom very well, but he choose to be evil when he failed to purpose MJ. (and some other failures as well)

Since he starts wearing the suit, Peter Parker starts to hate and neglect people around him. Well, let me shorten the story. He, of course, changes back into himself again when he realises his mistakes. He fight the darkness. The point is he CHOOSE!!!
He choose to be who he want to be from good to evil and from evil to good.
He is the want who CHOOSE his path and his personality! Not fate!

I think I still need to work on my personality. I should change some of my negative habits and behaviour to be better. I know it's hard for me. But, if spiderman can turn over a new leaf, why can't I??? hehe... :)

Well, this is the same with us. We can't just depends on fate in choosing our road. We've to depend on ourselves if you want something to work. Let say in career, if you want to be a successful doctor, you've to put a great effort on it.

There is a story of a man that I had heard before. The man went to a fortune-teller to ask for his future. Great news for him, the fortune-teller told him that he'll be a rich businessman in future and asked him not to worry. He trusted her. Being excited of what he had heard, he paid the money and went back home. Since then, he kept on day-dreaming and stopped working hard for his studies. He knew his future so he didn't have to work hard on it. Years went by, and guess what? He didn't turn up to be a successful businessman but a successful beggar instead.

For career, I can answer it very well but how about love? Do you feel that we're fated to someone by God? Or..... we find the person by ourselves?
"I believe that I'm the one who is choosing. But, anyway, we need fate to bring and show us the person before we can choose", Eric answered me. He's right.. I agree with him ;D

Honestly, I feel confuse sometimes. Someone told me that, everything is fated and we shouldn't against it. Just like in the olden day, when parents make the decision in choosing the bride for their son or vice verse. Well, is this what we call as fate? On the other hand, there is someone who have even told me that we shouldn't give in our love to fate. We choose our love. Luckily for us, in today's world, we have the right to choose the person that we love, not our parents anymore. Hurrooeeyy!!! :D

So, how do you think? Fate choose for you? Or? You are the one who choose and determine your future??
I say both.

3 in 1 Day

I went to an Indian temple yesterday.
They had the praying ceremony for the temple during Labour Day and Wesak Day-My 3in1 Day. I know, I know. I'm a Chinese and a Buddhist. I should go to a Chinese temple to pray since it was Wesak Day. But it doesn't matter right? I live in a multi-racial country and I still can join the ceremony. I've been to the Indian temple since I was nine. So, I feel close to this temple.

My family and I reached the temple about 12pm. It was an hot, dry, scorching afternoon. My skin had almost burnt off standing under the bright sun. Thousand of people were waiting for the ceremony. Once we reached they, they served us with vegetarian food - curry with rice on a banana leaf for each one... :D

I was eating while my mum took this photo. haha.. couldn't smile with my mouth full

Banana leaves

*Ah Yah who's the chief of the temple leaded the whole ceremony. Firstly, they cleaned up themselves with water in a nearby river. Then marched all the way back to the temple. Here are some of the photos:


Preparing the hot charcoal (before the ceremony)

Hot charcoal

Marched back from the river

He leaded the hot-walk

She walked on the hot charchol too!!!



He stepped on it and swung without pain. (He had the power of the God)


They used coconut for the ceremony. But uhh? Orange as well?

Praying...

I like this picture a lot- a lady who was praying. I was standing there, looking and listening to her prayer. Well, I'm sorry because I took her photo secretly.. shh.. :P
Looking at this photo again, it makes me think this question: Do you believe in God?
Since science and technology are ruling the world now, I've realised that more and more people are getting blur with the existence of God- especially scientist. They need prove and facts.

I never see a God before but I believe in them (Chinese has a lot of God so I use the word 'them'). I always feel safe and hopeful whenever I'm praying in the temple. I feel that they can give me strength and confidence. Of course, I know that we're the one who give ourselves the confidence. But sometimes, the believe in God is miracle. It's unexplainable by science. That's why there are people out there who still praying in temples, mosques and churches- because they believe in God.

I hope you're one of them.. :D
