Noel's wedding

Over the weekend, we went to Noel's wedding in JB. Finally the so-called playboy decided to settle down for good :P The wedding was quite nice, big ballroom with high ceiling and beautiful balloon setup.  I couldn't help thinking about how I felt just 2 weeks back when I had my own. *Hahah* Everything happened so quickly.... (Hmm...how nice if I can be a bride again)

Anyway, the day didn't really start well for me. First I have to go to Malaysia by myself coz TTS was already there on Friday night for the gatecrashing on sat morning. Around noon, I took a cab from my place to Kranji MRT then I find that the fares are getting more expensive these days.. I remembered it used to cost me about $9++ to get there but now it's $14.50!! What make it worse was that cab driver really took me for "a ride"! He was driving dangerously fast! (The speedometer showing 120km/H) I'm not sure if he have forgotten about me (sitting at the back), but he was literally racing with another cab! At one point of time he even wind down his window and shout at the other cab driver, making all sorts of hand signal!  Thank god that nothing bad happened and I reached my destination safely.

Then as soon as I got off the cab, I ran after the bus which takes me to Singapore custom. It was so crowded and I have to stand at the stairs :( The journey took about 10 minutes and the queue at the custom clearance was about 20 minutes. TTS came to meet me at the custom.. (I was so touched!) We walked across the causeway because of the heavy jam (took about 10 minutes) 

Finally we reached Malaysia custom!! But the queue was so so long, I think by the time my turn comes..2 hours will be gone.. So we had no choice but to pay for those illegal cab which take us to Malaysia using the car lanes (Each person costs $10) These people parked their car somewhere near the custom and when they gathered enough people, they will start their car, cut the queue and bring them over. (Yes, evil plots! But in those situations, we have no other choices)

We are sweaty, hungry and dead tired by the time we reached Malaysia. Then we went for a quick lunch and head back to TTS place for a nap. The wedding banquet was held at one of the most happening place in JB coz that's where people go for clubbing, shopping and wedding event also. When we reached the ballroom, I recall that I don't have my camera with me :( so so we have to take these pictures using a phone camera.

This is Noel and his wife, Queenie (a.k.a winnie/annie)

The dinner finished at about 11++,  and we quickly head back to singapore. Unfortunately we did not manage to get back home until 3++am in the morning!! As it was a long weekend and a big holiday for the muslims in malaysia, shopping centres were still open. Many people throng to the mall for last minute shopping, the whole area was jam packed! We were stucked in the carpark for nearly 2.5 hours because of the traffice jam plus another hour or so at the custom. Me and TTS took turns to drive the car so we can catch some sleep. When we reached home, we threw our bags on the floor, rushed to take a shower and then lie flat on the bed...
