Stevie NG (Angie) wedding / Melaka road trip

Tis the season to get married... tra-la-la-la-la-la.... you get the drift.
This is the 2nd wedding for me in M'sia, the first being Phaik's (who is now 7 months pregnant.. congrats!) wedding in KL, in 05.

Road trip with 2 of my best buddies, Jo & Sky. There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's the Malaysian Ringgit.

Jo compiled a CD for the road trip... and admittedly it wasn't the best collection of songs. Song No.1 - Chage & Aska's Say Yes. Enough said? Sky kept hitting the "Next" button.

Melaka Executive Summary
1. In a word: Kampung-in-transition.
2. City traffic: 1.2km/j
3. Main attraction: Jonker Street
4. No.1 Myth: Chicken Rice Balls are damn good la!
5. Fashion: too much attention to detail
6. Shopping: couldn't get there. See no 2.
7. Best food on the trip: Jonker street chendol. (had 2)
8. Girls: can't complain... hor Sky? hor?
9. Road culture: think most of the cars' indicators are spoilt... a bit like Sg but even more so
10.Car culture: check out the sticker on the side of the cars man... think its part of the part of the deal when they buy the car... "Eh bang, sticker percuma la..."






Wedding Day/Dinner
- Best man... again. They say 3 strikes and you're out.
- Sisters: .... well at least none of them were pregnant, like one of my previous experiences.
- Photographer was quite kay-en-en. Kept shoving me away during the gate-crashing to get a better shot.
- No Ang Pow box... all the singaporeans blur.
- Free seating. Don't try this, it's very messy.
- Karaoke!!!! Good idea to bring ear plugs just in case.
- Resident host-cum-karaoke-singer
- Drinks self-service. 1 bottle of mineral water, 1 bottle of 7-up, and 1 bucket of ice. Dozo...
- Start late end early! 8.30-10.30pm. chop chop.

Congratulations Steve and Angie. May you have many many happy years ahead.
