Event-Full

Its the first day of a long leave for the wedding. Woke up early as there are still so many things to do. Pretty good progress today - final draft of the church program, got some ideas and things for the pews deco, called the caterer, the bed and the floor of the room is finally ready to make the room a room. Got somethings for the wedding before joining the CS group for dinner.

Event I
Just about on my way to Pavillion [AL] sms'ed news that [A]'s hubby [D] met with a bad accident last night with critical head injury - and according to the doctor he is brain dead :( Finally met [A]'s hubby some months back for CNY dinner at their home with the cell. [D] is a great cook have been cooking his yummy dishes for us for years. He cooked dinner for all us that CNY and it was excellent. He's hospitable, bubbly, full of life and entertaining, [A] a very humble and sincere person.. they both complement each other very much I thought to myself that evening. [A] is still in shock from the news. And I am still in shock having heard that :( So much so that when walking to Kampachi I was bit zombie like and all my thoughts and prayers was just about what had happened. Took me sometime to settle with the group when I got there as I was just so sad with for [A] of what she is going thru. It also reminded how me trying to decide what ribbons to put on the church pew is insignificant in comparison to what has happened and just having your loved one's safe.

Event II
I was very touched indeed by my fellow collegues who surprised me with a wedding gift. It was sooo thoughtful of them even though they cannot make it for the wedding. Am touched from the effort on the card and having chosen a lovely figurine for the occassion.
Thanks muchly LH,CH and PC :D I really, really appreciate what you girls and guy(s) did for Larry and I :D

Here's pics of what they have given :D

Event III
Through out dinner my thoughts were still for [A] and [D]. Dinner ended and my thoughts was still filled with the news and also colleagues wonderful gesture of the wedding gift. So much so that the police stopped me for forgetting to turn on my car lights. Policeman make me nervous even though I know I have not done something seriously wrong. The policeman gestured to write a summon and kept asking me "apa nak buat?" / "so what do you want do?" over and over again. I didnt really understand what he wanted to from me and I really wanted to believe that he was NOT asking me for money. And I actually thought maybe he wanted a remorseful apology to let me off the hook(I know I am a naive adult) - I apologized and he still asked me the same question again. Anyway I would rather pay the fine than to give him kopi money. After sometime trying to understand what he wanted from me he let me off the hook. After assessing the what happened again he must be asking me for money even though I really want to believe that he wasn't. Sigh... pls stop doing this policemen, and everyone else don't support this by giving kopi money.
