I feel very enchanted today.

I went for the wedding of Mr. Adrian Chan who was my ex-council teacher at SAJC. Everything was just so perfect. The place, the ceremony, the atmosphere, man, too many things to mention. wat i can say is this, its the best wedding ive attended. period.

im continuously amazed by the holiness of catholic weddings. ive so far been to three of them, and in each wedding, im able to observe, as a total outsider, the whole procession. it seems very divine as well. and the way everyone participates and contributes to the whole ceremony was juz so impressive.

the place, my. it was at Church of St. Mary's of the Angels. the place was very new and it looked like some research facility by design, but once u step inside, it was a totally different place altogether. the seats and the architecture was designed in such a way it resembled a conference hall, yet, had that edge about it. n in the centre hung up was this yet another impressive sculpture of jesus. it looked very authentic and priceless piece of art, i tell ya.

i probably shouldnt be saying all these, because of my own religion, but i cant hide my amazement at everything. it was that nice. actually i dont care wat code of conduct im 'supposed' to obey as a Muslim. these were things that fascinate u, interest you and move you. i was actually contemplating my own possibilities of being involved in this kinda of thing and trying to picture wat it would be like. it was that good.

i realised that i hav this sense of appreciation for these holy ceremonies. i would really like to see how these things are carried out in the traditional greek way. i think it would be much better. for some time, ive been takin note of the details of roman catholic procedings and all. the extricate details and all r v interesting. my my, haha, wat am i doing.

but it was really nice today. i feel so enlightened and all. makes me look forward to seeing another ceremonies like this.

All the best for the future, the newly wedded Mr and Mrs Adrian and Melissa Chan.
