My family. very asian. very conservative
i forgot to mention that my jiejiewong got married yesterday. well to me she's officially (and legally) married...but to my very asian and very conservative family, she aint married until she goes through all the customs ala tea ceremony and the big banquet. hence, nothing changes except for her marital status cuz she's still staying at home with my mum and living life as per normal....until next yr which im both looking forward to and dreading at the same time cuz i love my jiejiewong and i dont want her to move out :| anyway anyone wanna go on a fit-into-bridemaid-gown diet with me? hehe
just talked to my mum on the fone and calling after 1am has its perks. i had 5 bucks left on the fonecard and that could have lasted me a 1070 min fone call. what the?! can u believe it. anyway here's a condensed version of our conversation.......
[we've talked abt the weather...my finances...my studies..]
mum: what was it that i wanted to ask you...? oh ya. got bf or not?!?!?!
[what was it that i wanted to ask u?! ya right. dont pretend mummy, i know uve been burning to ask me that cuz jiejie told me a few days ago~!! hehehehe]
su: huh. no.
mum: oh ..its also better not to have one now...you're still q young
[well its a sign that ive grown up because abt 2 yrs ago she'd have said "you're too young to have a bf now." instead]
su: err ya ok.
mum: then what about your friends?
su: oh err. all also dont have lah. oh maybe except for angie.
mum: ohh. how come all dont have *cheeky tone* too choosy huh?
[wish that was the case. but no we aint too choosy. got no one to choose from]
su: huh no lah. oh ya but then again. maybe. aiyar no time lah
[tries very hard to change the topic. a result of being part of this very asian and very conservative family..]
oh well.
