Running Around

I didn't get to run over the weekend. Not sure if it's any consolation, but I did run around a great deal instead.

T'was Teong & Beth's wedding weekend. Friday night dinner at Beth's house; Saturday morning running from the bride's house to the dim sum shop, then to the groom's house, then back to the bride's house, then back to the grooms house, then back home for a quick nap, then down to KL Convex for work-related matters, then a quick dash to Sime Darby Convex for the wedding dinner reception and lots of photos, then to meet Jim on work-related matters, before finally heading home.

Congrats to Mr & Mrs Koh Yew Teong. A lovely couple indeed, and a wedding affair to remember. Highlights were many - including the bride's sister Kimberley's flash animation which was rather cute; And also the father of the groom's most impressive and unique speech.

Mr Koh addressed the crowd with his son and new daughter-in-law's love story, filled with songs which he sang remarkably well. The 4 or 5 songs he sang made his speech not unlike a musical, and it left both bride & groom in tears. What a touching experience it must have been for the both of them.

Sunday was less hectic, but hectic nonetheless. As you can imagine, Saturday's affairs left both Jo & I exhausted and we only got out of bed at 11am on Sunday. I had made prior arrangements for 17 of us to attend U-maiya's weekend lunch buffet at 11.30am. If you're wondering why so many people, the lunch was a get together of some of Jo's closest friends to celebrate her birthday, which is today. Happy Birthday dear!

Lunch was fantastic with U-maiya's food as delicious as ever. RM55.20net per person might sound like a lot to pay for a meal, but I cannot deny the fact that the amount, variety and quality of the food is unbeatable.Even the bride and groom after a hectic wedding day before, managed to join us for lunch. We're all big fans of U-maiya's buffet.

After lunch we headed to D'sara Perdana for a while before heading home. A quick nap later, I was off to D'sara Perdana again for an evening meeting with some business associates to discuss our upcoming plans. Without realizing it, 2.5 hrs past and I was already due to be down at KL Convex again. Not even enough time for dinner. Upon meeting my client down in KL, he said we still have time so I mentioned that I'd run over to Suria KLCC for a quick bite before returning. Moments later, I instead found myself sitting down to eat at the buffet setup for the event's secretariat. Such wonderful hosts these people are.

After my second buffet of the day, it was a 3 hour wait for their big boss to passby during his pre-event walk-around. A 30-second glance from the hall's large doors and then he was off again. Reminds me of a theme park ride, only worse. At least in Disneyland you wait 30 minutes for 30 seconds of fun. Here, it was 3 hours for 30 seconds of nothing.

Oh well, such is work. And now that the weekend is over, what do you know? Back to work. I want my weekend back!
