A Day To Remember, A Time To Cherish

Yes... It's done. For 3 months I worked on my plan to bring to reality to gather all family members. And now everything  is completed. Not just the function itself but the whole of family members were there to wish the grandfather and grandmother good health ahead. It is indeed planned since 3 years before. But many things came up and I have to keep my plan in silent.

I thanked all that have supported us in the gathering. Well, it was really exhausting. For the last two weeks before the functions, I had to do 3 jobs or 4 jobs or even 5 jobs in a day just to meet the dateline of plate, banner, photos, T-shirts, parents function attires, cakes and everything. The cow some more! And courage is all that I have. I had to attend my job in the morning, had to attend for my daughter's doctor's appointment in the afternoon in some days, and in late afternoon had to contact some of the company that I had a deal and only managed to be at home at 8 pm or even 11 pm on some days. Ahh... On the day of the function itself, I am grateful to my siblings, cousins and relatives for all the hard works. 

A bit disappointment actually when I have to change the time on that particular day. From 10 am to 5.00 pm  but only started at 6.30 pm. I have to bear all the talks from people who claim to be part of my family but not invited in the gathering. It was indeed meant for immediate family gathering. But, well, I guess I know the exact reason for the time changes. My siblings have totally no respect for me. Never mind. I said to myself, "I had done my job". Imagine all the excuses they gave me. Some had to work because could not apply for leave. Some pretend to be too busy. But... they could apply for leave for others functions the day after for 2 days!... Or some wanted to be seen popular among the crowds. Oh my!...

I was  totally ashamed by the way we handle the functions. It wasn't like what I had planned. Imagine when I could read their thoughts. Hahaha... They thought that I would only want my parents to cut off the cake by letting my parents sitting in front of the cake. In fact, it is the blessing ceremony the utmost important part of the functions. Oh shame!... They don't even get the idea of no alcohol before the ceremony. That is the reason for me to do it in the morning not in the afternoon.... Ahhh ... enough said.

Now, I am ready to explore my life. I am all set to travel around the world. This is the main reason for me organizing the 2013 Family Gathering and Wedding Anniversary for my parents. Will you understand me?....
