Lia's Wedding.
I went to Lia's wedding today. I think I was more like the breeze than a guest.
Got there via cab (expensive like hell), sought her out, salam her and gave her the duit berkat. All of that took about 15 seconds, excluding the taxi ride. When she saw me, she was a teeny bit surprised and asked "You came here alone?" twice. I felt a little sympathetic when I saw her look when I told her the rest couldn't come. She just said "Oh..". If she felt disappointment, I think I know exactly how that feels like.
Anyway, after that 15 seconds in her limelight, I stood aside watching her as she continued her rounds of salam-ing people. She was in white. Her hair and make up done. Totally didn't look over the top. She looked pretty. And I only saw the back of the groom. Hahah. Seriously, I only zoomed in on my friend. Heck the groom.
I just can't believe how grown up life suddenly seems. All of my friends seems to be out of school, except one who's probably going to be a physiotherapist. Some of them are working in unexpected places. I know one who's currently in NS. I'm going to be a working adult. And now a friend is married. I might be the only one who's freaking out about all this.
I watched her for like 5 seconds and I'm off looking for a bus stop, all the while mumbling to myself "Oh my God, I don't know anyone here. I don't have the guts to eat by myself. Oh God, where am I walking? Where's the bus stop. I'm so going to get lost.... Where is the freaking bus stop???!! Oh. There it is."
Yup. That's it. I was at Lia's wedding for approximately a minute. I didn't eat, I didn't get a berkat or whatever. I didn't even get to take a photo with her. Actually I forgot to bring my camera. But even if I did brought my camera I don't think I'd be able to take a photo. She's busy salam-ing people, and I'm busy trying not to get noticed. At least the person who was video camera-ing the whole thing got the back of my head. I think. Haha.
So headed home, reading my Pediatric Emergency Care Handbook.
