sort of 'helped' hariani out during HER BROTHER'S WEDDING but mostly, it was just being extras and tagging along.
on that fateful day, mama popped by to get her hair done, just straightening it, putting on her contacts, which took her 45 mins?! and to pick out something decent to wear. malay wedding = not too revealing? and makeup! i think i did her eye shadow pretty nice :)
cabbed down to hariani's after that as we thought we were late but still ended up rotting in her room while relatives and family scurried around making preparations for the solemnisation over at the girl's home.
mama and i got bored and hungry and went down* to get a bite. hariani's mummy had cooked the food and it was too spicy for poor me as usual, who struggled to finish it up.
around 4.30pm, it was time to move off to the girl's house. there was a bus for us to sit on while each person carried a the present but there was no more place on the bus for us! so mama and i were shoved into i don't know whose car, all the way to tamp.
when we got out, we met mama's classmate and realised that he was hariani bro's wife-to-be's cousin. how complicating.. anyway, we went up to the house, where the solomisation took place. tonnes of people gathered there to watch and the place was soo packed we couldn't see anything. hariani was too busy for us and so we were left to entertain ourselves. the worst thing was that, everything was done in malay, so mama and i didn't understand a single thing but the atmosphere felt so solemn and serious.
went down* to eat again before going back up to watch the couple's photo shoot. hariani and i were at the back of the pros trying to snap pics but none of them turned out as nice. :(
the next day, mama and i went back to hariani's for the wedding reception. this time, mama's daddy and cousins came along. food this time was prepared by hariani's uncle, thus NOT SPICY! yay. i had 2 servings which wasn't enough. when the bride and groom came down to cut the wedding cake, hariani gave me the responsibility of snapping photos again. time to show off my photography skills, which is actually nothing =X after that, it was the end of the reception! hariani's mummy was so nice, she dabao-ed food for us to bring home and eat. yumyum
