its cold

TODAY could possibly be THE COLDEST day i have ever encountered in my life!

i just got back from the morning part of marii and duc's 1920's themed wedding so im just killing some time before the reception later i woke up realising that i had nothing to wear... unlike the other chickies, i did not own nor have i ever owned a traditional vietnamese "Ao dai" (dress)... i had the heater on... i checked outside and to me .. at the time.. it didnt look so bad

so i donned a simple black pleated skirt, singlet and transparent jumper...threw on s string of brown crystal beads and because i figured.. it can't be that cold! so i donned my bronze open toed shoes

BIG MISTAKE

IT WAS FREEEEEEEEZING TODAY AND IM STILL COLD SITTING HERE WITH MY HEATER ON FULL BLAST!

Apart from the coldness, the morning ceremony itself was rather beautiful... i almost cried in the church when marii was walking up the isle and i almost cried again when they were wed by the priest..

...here was a girl i grew up with... a girl ive shared the impressional part of my life with... a girl with whom ive shared tears and now happiness finding her own place in life... a girl i met on a the school bus... one i befriended because we were both friendless on the bus in year 7... we've shared many conversations about life, boys, love and growing up, we've sat behind shrubs and wagged school to do so... one of my best friends... and she's MARRIED! my how she has grown! ...

... what is it with me and being so sentimental!

Not only that was beautiful.. but the dresses.. all of which she hand-made with her sisters were beautiful... the bride had a 1920's style veil and frock and i couldnt believe my eyes when i saw how together the wedding was... it was perfect and perfectly timed to perfection.. perfectly themed.. perfectly glamorous...perfectly matching... but for the weather, i would declare the it the most perfectly executed wedding ever!
