So day two of the wedding was a bit more vague than day one, where there had been an aim at least. This time we went there and I was immediately shoved once again to the girls house, where I found them all putting on makeup and such. They took a while to get ready, and then we went back to the bride's house where momom was still and they said something like "all the girls come and eat!" so I went to eat and it was VERY good. But it was in a garage as usual, so I was damn cold and shivering. After that, we flitted into the other two rooms, which were thankfully warmer. Mum was in one room with the ladies and I was in the other with the younger girls.
The bride was putting henna for the young girls which was nice, I like to watch, it's calming, I feel. I chattted a bit with a few people, but mainly just sat. Despite being a little boring, it was fun
Then yesterday was the actual wedding. one of my mum's friends dropped off a green indian outfit for me to wear, which was nice enough because I didn't have any. We went at lunchtime to set the tables, which was a bit of a wasted effort because there certainly were enough girls helping, but oh well.
The wedding started at six, and we got there. Riaz kindly said I looked like I was an old woman. i was wearing contact lenses and very high heels.
Inside, I couldn't ACTUALLY see very well. We milled around a little bit, mainly me trailing after mum and trying to find things to do to keep myself occupied. Eventually Zainab (a girl I went on hajj with, married into a family my mum is friends with) called me over because she didn't know anyone. We ate the food which was pretty good. Then the girl that I met at the Mendi found me, and was like "HI!" and I was like "well hello there."
For some reason she really took a shine to me and followed me a round for most of the evening. I told her lots of jokes, and then she told me some but they didn't really make sense. Then she wrote down her number for me on a napkin and I gave her my phone number too. She was a really nice kid...called me this morning actually. What a sweetie.
Then the bride came to meet us all, she looked really nice, wearing all red and gold. it's not my thing, but she was working it. Then she left, and we hung around for no real reason, cleaning up a little. Then we went outside and Riaz said "sorry auntie, have you seen my sister?" to me, and I glared muchly. At home, everyone was in great spirits. It was a very fun night.
In other news, my aunt and uncle brought my birthday present today. I don't know what it is, but i heard my mum saying "don't encourage her" so ... how interesting.
Oh oh, and in Naruto! Sasuke was all "yeah, you suck," and then RAN OFF AGAIN. For goodness sake. They are SO in denial. ONE TRUE PAIRING!
