I'll post up two entries...Later will be for my Blog's Anniversary entry...
I went to watch The Legend of Zorro at PS yesterday with Jo. It was a nice show, far better than the 1st show I would say. More fighting scenes and funny scenes too. The whole show was practically action. Nice to see both husband and wife fighting arms to arms together but too bad it was only towards the end. Joaquin (pronounced as Wa-Kin) is rather cute but when he was a baby in Mask of Zorro I remember seeing he had blue eyes and very cute, this grown up had brown eyes. I did not know Alexandro has become Alexandro Dela Vega means he took on Elena (Catherine Zeta-Jones) surname. He married into her family name to carry on as Zorro. As for some people who may not know. Joaquin is actually Alexandro's dead brother in Mask of Zorro. He named his son after his brother's first name, Joaquin.

I went to Four Season's Hotel on Sat to meet my relatives from KL, America and Melbourne all gathered here to attend my cousin, Nigel and Jenny's wedding. My cousin is a Malaysian-Australian PR cum Singapore PR now cause his wife is Singaporean. Well, my dad and I went to meet my relatives to fetch them over to the hotel. We had some drink at the cafe of the hotel. Their service was superb and excellent. I ordered Iced Lemon Tea and they gave pure tea two tiny jugs in fact with a plate with slices of lemon and asked me how many pieces would I want, with a glass or syrup. They will pour the tea and refil the tea into my glass though the jug was put in front of me.

I went up to Auntie Jeannie's room. It was big. Exactly the same as the room I stayed in before. My dad decided to go pick his car up from Orchard Hotel and told me to wait in the room till he calls me to go down to lobby. We needed to pick my mum up from my grandma's house and head back to Orchard for dinner with them again. I really regretted not following to get his car otherwise I would have saw John Travolta and may have took a picture with him using my camera phone. My dad and Uncle Onn took the same lift as him. They said he was rather plump but tall and he was wearing a cap. He kept staring at my father and my dad really found him familiar but just couldn't think who he was. Then he said a Caucasian who was in the lift asked him, "You're some movie star right? John something? John Travolta yeah...No wonder you look so familiar." Then he went out of the lift and my Aunt Penny saw him right in front of her. My sis said he has a private jet and he often fly around who knows he may often fly to Singapore too. Uncle Joe also saw him earlier so he did told me but just that I was not paying attention what he was talking about. How often do u get that one chance of a lifetime to see a Hollywood moviestar up close and personal? He came in from the third floor which only had a gymnasium there and he was with another tall black guy. What a pity!

The wedding was on Sunday at 5.30pm. My dad took a lot of pictures of them. I only took a few with my camera but it all has me in them. Will post the rest of the pics again...The pastor from New Creation Church hold the wedding ceremony. It was a small place but great glass window view. Nigel and Jenny chose to exchange their own wedding vows. Nigel's speech was so touching. His eyes were teared and my sis and aunt all feel so touched by his speech and love for her. She also cried at hearing his speech. 4 years of courtship and all makes this worthwhile. The wedding banquet was good too. Great service and all. It's been a long time sicne I last attended a wedding dinner banquet. The opening dish where the waitresses and waiters comes out with parading around. What a splendid sight to see them move around orderly and with a distinctive pattern. Hard to diescribe in words. But it is a 8-course dinner. I was stuffed that day of course. The waiting of each dish and all. But I was sitting opp the VIP table and in front of the stage cause we're the groom's close relatives. My sis was saboed to sing on stage by my Aunt Penny too. I even took a video clip of her singing Amazing Grace cause that's the only song that had lyrics (from the ceremony booklet), she was nervous of cours. But to others they couldn't tell and sounded good to them unlike her bf and I who have heard her sing in choir practices and solo and all, we know her style and whether she is nervous or not. Enough of the crap. Enjoy the pictures...
