The Perfect Dress

Monday morning and it was a perfect day. Beautiful morning and clear skies. The morning began with the little mundane routines. I woke up, brushed my teeth, set out to teach my PE class and here is where it gets interesting, one of my students blacked out… he was running the way the normally did and did everything the way that was normal, but he suddenly complained about a tummy ache then went pale. We sat him down and rested him. And he came back to normal we guessed he didn’t sleep well and may be falling sick. But with the morning done, the real day began.

 

Today we are going to go select the perfect dress for Charity! Malacca was the city; Classic Wedding Castle was our destination. Nervousness was the feeling. The travel there was another adventure, when we reached the Seremban rest house for breakfast; a group of men were loitering around. And when I stopped one of them immediately came and began the harassment he kept offering me a phone it was a nokia N75. And he kept offering and offering even when I said that I don’t want. It was definitely stolen and from the look of it being scratched up and all it was stolen for sure. So when there was a break and he went to harass someone else we ran into KFC the nearest restaurant. There we ate in peace and discovered that KFC does have good and reasonable breakfast menus. I would say more reasonable than McD!

 

So after breakfast they came back and boy was it really annoying. These men really have nothing to do but destroy people’s travels and good days isn’t it. But as we got on the way the memory of those silly men was blown away and forgotten. So as we got to Malacca town we caught up with Charity’s parents that were already there.  We went to town for lunch and I discovered I knew Malacca’s roads better than I thought… how many times have I been there? How come I knew it? Maybe its my mom’s natural GPS inherited to me! YAY!!! But I must admit there was a little help from Foo Mei Fern. But I managed to really get around and that was really something I never thought of myself… *pat self on back* wahahahaha!!!!

 

We went to Jonker Street to have lunch and did shopping!

 

My Beauty and the beast @ Jonker

SHOES don't you wanna buy them all!

She would look so so good in Bali

Jonker or Bali… its only Jonker… what a nice little corner…

And later when we got to Classic Wedding Castle after being lost we got down to business. Oh I forgot to tell that we were so bored that we begin to take pics for ourselves. And then when we got there, for the first time I saw so many dresses and yet they were beautiful. So Charity, her mom, her aunt, and church member were like kids at the candy store.

 

Focus Here OK?

Preparing for looking beautiful in a dress

We were sifting through so many dresses I was worried about size and price, but there were beautiful gowns. So after much selection Charity began trying 3 dresses. And for those who know, people look really hard for that perfect dress. I was wondering if that will happen here. I was skeptical but there was some hopefuls. But after every fitting there was some problems with each dress. And I was like wondering if Charity will be disappointed or upset if we could not find a dress…

 

But it happened.  The curtain opened, and I was far off but it was like magic, she appeared with the curtains opened and she looked like an angel, oh so beautiful… I could just hug her and not let her go. I could not burst into tears coz I was so mesmerized. The perfect dress no alterations needed and she looked beautiful and in so many ways it fits everyone’s expectations. So satisfied with everything and selecting the veil and placing everything together the price was SHOCKING. But not the bad kind of SHOCKING! Let’s just say that renting the dress in KL would not even come near to the price of us purchasing this dress, veil, the traveling expenses of the toll and petrol, the food, the buying of knick-knacks and parking and all came to less than that!

 

Wooohhooo!!! The dress now settled and so many things being settled thank God everything is moving along. And finally I understood certain things about preparing for a wedding: finding the perfect dress.

 

Love you dear. You looks so beautiful in that dress. Muacks!
