Hainanese style wedding ...

Thursday, November 09, 2006

I had a hilarious chat with Friend TJ earlier. So funny that I almost fell off my chair laughing. We were having a normal chat on the Sony camera that I fell in love with, and our topic suddenly diverted to something else.

Out of sudden, I was curious if TJ is still single, so I asked him whether if he is single or attached. He replied that he is single and asked if I want to date him. Our parents would be elated because we're both hainanese. I told him that it would not be a great idea. I'm the kind of person who wants to win in every debate session, but how am I gonna win in a debate with a lawyer? And who on earth will wanna hire a lawyer who can't even win in a simple debate with his gf? LOL...

So, here are some excerpts from our crappy session. We'll both start to date as a hainanese couple. Being typical hainanese, everytime we go for dinner / lunch, it will have to be hainanese chicken rice. But having chicken rice for every meal is gonna be damn boring. So, we have decided to have only chicken rice for our first dinner / lunch date. Communication in Hainanese is a pre-requisite.

After dating, when time matures, we'll have a Hainanese-Style-Wedding. I'll invite Friend HJ to be my bride's maid as she is also a hainanese. No reason to count Friend HJ out as my bride's maid because she was the one who introduced Friend TJ to me. We'll only invite hainanese guests for our wedding dinner. All those who attended the wedding dinner will have to converse in Hainanese. Emcees will also have to speak in Hainanese. If we could, we will have a stage performance with a singer singing us a Hainanese song.

Next will be the dishes for our wedding night. First dish will be the Hainanese White Chicken. Subsequent dishes could be Hainanese Chicken Chop, Hainanese Mixed Vegetables, Hainanese Kicap Sotong, etc. But we ran out of ideas for Hainanese Dishes. We will consult our parents for more ideas when time comes. And finally, honeymoon will be to Hainan Island in China. Hehe...

Boy, this definitely brightens up my boring day! But NO, I don't think a Hainanese-Style-Wedding will be a good idea. I do not want to be traumatized on my big day! Hehe ...
