reminiscence & nostalgia- wedding

''Since no man knows the future, who can tell him what is to come?''

you might think what on earth this photo is of. it's a beautiful cocktail: pimms and lemonade. i'd never tried it before and it was divine. although, i only actually drank half of it. im a lightweight. i'll drink tons of apple juice, but give me alcohol....a few sips and i'm done.

it was erica and imad's wedding yesterday. it was such a beautiful day, despite the awful weather (but that was to be expected). i dunno, just the whole day was amazing. wedding's have this way of making you think. i think that if you're married, it reminds you of when you got married and if you're not married, it makes you want to get married! anyways, i had fun. a little. i'm way too conservative and quiet and not really willing to let loose and go party. but it was good. fahad pulled me onto the dance floor a couple of times and it was fun. unnatural for me. but fun. i guess the whole thing reminded me that it's ok to have fun. it's normal to be allowed to be happy and relax. i've been living in this dream depressive world for too long. it was good to emerge for a bit.

two out of the four speeches happened to mention me as the 'cupid matchmaker'. i remember when i introduced them to each other, about 2 years ago. i had gone to Ting's house with erica cuz she had literally just moved. erica had come up for the week to help her out. at that point, erica was single and we chatted about boys etc, as you do. she mentioned about a project and i happened to think about imad, cuz i kinda knew him and i knew that he was a reporter type of person. i phoned him up straight away, passed the phone to erica, and the rest is history. it's amazing how things turn out!

so, yeh, last night brought back memories of things. I don't often go places where there are so many people that i kinda know. i don't see the iraqi guys that often. they're fun, really they are!
however, i didn't manage to catch the bouquet.... may be next time! makes you wonder, is there really someone for me? should really change myself first. then someone will like me. I've met so many guys and watched them all get girlfriends. i'm not really girlfriend material. I don't really think that i'll get married, although nahro reckons that i will....who knows?..only God's knows....he holds the future in his hands.
