The Wedding Dinner

Last night I went to Mr.s Tong's Wedding dinner. we had a blast. He invited those who had done our FYP under his supervision to his wedding. So there are a few of us attended the wedding dinner : Darren, Boon Koon, Kwan, Allen, Shirley, Nicholas and I.

Before the wedding I am still reluctant to attend the dinner as I might be the only one from my group to be there. And it might be awkward to sit with strangers and have dinner together. But it turned out alright. Nicholas called me in the morning and told me that he is going as well. Goodness!

He took KTM and I picked him up at Kepong station and we went to the wedding dinner which was held in Cheras. He is still that cheerful and happening person I used to know. We haven't met each other since our gradation. It had been more than 1 year! Thanks to Mr. Tong for bringing us together again.

When we arrived at the restaurant in Cheras, we made our way into the restaurant and greeted Mr Tong who was smiling very happily. No doubt it's his big day! Then we were told that our table is number 30. So we went further inside and look for our table and seat. Yeah, it's not so difficult and there were three men already sitting there : Darren, Boon Koon and Kwan. We greeted and introduced ourselves. Everyone was so glad to meet each other. After all we graduated from the same university. There're some, if not all, things that we have in common.

We chatted about out career and current life situation. Life isn't so bad after all. At least all of us has got a job. We made fun and joking around. Yes it was fun. The dinner started pretty late that night. The food was not so bad nor too good. Just nice. But since there're only seven of us, we hardly finished the food after the third or fourth dishes. Oh Mr. Tong sang two songs that night for his wife : 在我生命中的每一天 and 爱拼才能赢.

The greatest moment was when Mr. Tong asked us to ... ehhh what we call that... make a toast? We basically went to each and every table and shouted "Yam Seng". I forgot how many tables there were that night. But we were screaming and yelling from talbe to table just to make sure everyone shouted and screaming as well! At the end of the day, I had a sore throat as expected.

We exchanged phone number and email so that we can keep in touch. It was fun to attend the wedding dinner.
