Was invited to a wedding lunch of Cobby's ex-colleagues. The banquet was held at the Crowne plaza at the Changi Airport. We've never been there before, and our first impression of the hotel was, BLACK. Literally, the lobby walls, floors and furnitures were all black or dark brown, so it's just very, dark. Urgh.
Anyway, like I said, it was one of Cobby's ex-colleague, so naturally most of the people on the guy side were military men. Our table consist of only 2 ladies, both of us spouse. She looked bored almost throughout the whole meal while I try to listen and engage in the light conversations going on. Interestingly, I was seated in between Cobby and his boss, so I managed to have a little chit chat with him. Honestly, he didn't seemed that bad, but then again, I don't work for him, so it would be unfair to judge. :) Though I find it most interesting to observe this man who drives my Cobby nuts.
It was a simple little banquet, with good food and interesting little stories of the army. I loved the bride's dresses, very unconventional, with some colours rather than the usual all white. Her photo album even have short dresses in them, which didn't look too terrible. But the groom... erm... I always feel that for men, less is more. If you try to be as extravagent as the bride, it would turn out a little "biang". :P
Oh, another thing that really got people talking were their wedding favours. On was quite straightforward, a luggage tag. The other was this.
It really got everybody discussing what on earth it's for. Some say it's like a tracing thing for kid's art and craft, some ask if it's a passport holder?! I opened it, saw the temperature limit warning on the inside, and immediately knew that it's an oven glove. Obviously these men don't cook. -_- But anyway, I thought it was really cute, different and of course, more practical than a stupid key chain. So I took 2.
Unfortunately, Jolie thinks differently. She says that it's a princess book and conveniently claimed that it's hers.
