Stayed there for 15 mins… and then I have to rush to town to pick a ex colleague of mine…. To go to a house warming lunch together….. the route is from my office to Taman Yakin, then Tmn Yakin to town and town to Interhill, where the hse warming lunch is…. Guess wat I also stayed there 15 mins and back to office. On the way back…. I drop my car at this Lutong car wash, near my office for car wash and polish….. then I go back to work…. At about 2 pm….. after a while, I need to go and do my nails (as a bridemaid, of cos I need to be perfect also, so have to colour my nails lo). I actually have to reach the wedding reception venue at about 530 to help up with ushering….. but my car only finish polish and also my nail finish coloured and 530. I have not choice but to take a quick bath and change into my dinner suit… then I make up in the car…. This is my first experience, making up in a car….

My fren as I finished make up at about 430 am… and we can even go back to sleep.. so we just chit chat and do whatever we need……. I follow the wedding car to Seria and the whole ceremony ended at 330 pm….. I was like fainted when I finally get to the hotel. But I can only rest up to 430pm cos I have to wake up and go to help my fren up with changing her clothes etc etc (not easy to be a bridemaids ya)….. and then I finally get to sit down on the dinner table.. and enjoy the wedding dinner for the second time (one in Miri last night, one in Kuala Belait).Whole event ended at ard 1130 and I really need to get back to rest…. Cos tomolo need to go back to Miri early… work at 8am!!!
