well yesterday was a pretty hectic day for us (especially for me since i woke up at 8 am n got to sleep at 2:30am)
yesterday was totally chaotic, the house was totally upside down everyone runnin to the bathrooms n here n there... i wanted to take my braces out today (its high time i did!) but wen i went to the dentist(in the afternoon) we were an hour early, n my bro wasn't willin to wait nor to come again.
so we went home sadly, n as we stepped outta the elevator, i saw the elevator opposite to ours closin infront, in which my 2 sis were there n one them called out my name, wel its cuz they were goin to the salon, she called my bro to tell that she was waitin for me at the entrance of our buildin n blah blah, so i went got my hair fixed. since my hair is cut in layers, she gave me curls that were flyin outwards, n so my hair had lotsa volume! with the house in a mess, n our faces painted with makeup, we finally left our house
the place was quit extravagent n classy, there were warm lights everywhere yet the chill from the ac completely froze us...brrr. so we sat, and we sat and we sat. we had a little chit chat with our 2nd cousins (cousins from our dad's sides our really old, n so their children are our age) but other than that it was pretty borin, i was anxious to see my sis n how she would look!! then the groom n his party arrived, his tie matched my sister's dress (pale pink) n later she arrived but wasn't sent directly to the main hall, course not she has to make a grand entrance! lolzzz she arrived with my eldest bro, so as soon as he stepped in the hall we knew that she had arrived. we asked her where she was n went to see her, she looked sooooooooo pretty, almost as if she had come to a weddin! but with less makeup n jewellry. so she did a little photoshoot. then with all the bros infront, the bride in centre n sisters at the back (i think the sis should be in th front cuz we r smaller than guys!!) the camera man lit the bride's parade as the walked in slowly.
after that it was pretty boring, she went n sat on the chair with the groom. n then we sat n sat. later we took some photos, they exchanged rings, received lotsa gifts n blessings from relatives. n the most wierd part of the engagment now comes, there was a weddin cake!? i mean wth there already had been alotta drama n now this lemme remind u this is not a weddin but an engagement. so the weddin cake was exactly like u see on tv but instead of a knife they had to cut with this huge sword thing, which makes this whole scene all the more absurd. well, they somehow had cut the cake. n later the stupid waiters got orange juices, n the stupid camera director guy was tellin my sis, to make the guy sip from her drink she from his. n my sis was like =.= n i was like O_o, but they didn't do it since my sis was already abit freaked out by the wierd wedin style poses she had to make with the photographer. we ate food, after which ppl started to leave, n the cake was served after half the ppl had left, i tried the caked n it tasted of the flavour i detest the most, vanilla. the cake peice was piled with vanilla cream, with very little cake in it. i ate the cake n not the cream. we again took some pics. watched strangers as the bid their goodbyes to my parents n the other party.
i was really mad at my other sis, everyday stinkin day even durin my exams she used to talk constantly bout her professors n wat happend n crap! now today wen i needed it the most as so i wouldn't get bored, she sat there beside me stiff as a board. wen asked for the reason she replied, that the university was over n she has no new stories to tell (i would have gladly listen to the old ones too)
so we left our house at 8pm to the hotel, n came back home at 2 am. i was sooooooo sleepy my sis (erum, who got engaged) walked into the building with her sandles in her hand, her feet must be really achin from that 3 inch heel. we girls never wore thin or fat based heels, so it was quite uncomfortable. today mornin i just looked at the amount of gifts she received n i got pretty jealous. so my sis was gonna get thrown outta the house, n yesterday it was made official. i m gonna miss her wen she leaves her bossiness n cynical personality irritated me everyday, but then its hard to say goodbye to someone u have known all ur life. (i have a pic of her holdin me wen i must 1 yr old, i had really chubby cheeks with small hair that had natural spikes comin outta my head)
since it was the first time my family had to organize a party or somethin, it was quite a bit of mess, but now i m sure my mom is gonna get pretty expert in the comin years.
oh btw, the guy has a pretty cool personality, he is cool minded, often jokes around n is free n friendly unlike most of the adults u find out here who are soo conservative. n my other sis hadn't met the guy until today, n that too he came searchin to her due to his curiosity, i felt really bad n sorry that my sis was so freakin shy. phew so glad all this crap is over, i wonder how its gonna be on the weddin...i dun wanna think bout it.
