It was such a wonderful wedding that me and Juan attended over the last 2 weekend. INTEKMA was the venue for Alina and Ali's high tea wedding and both of us we honored to be sited at the main table, together with the bride and groom. It was my first time actually and it was truly awkward. People were like 'who on earth is this couple?' A situation where you can't scratch any part of your body in case you itch. Imagine that...

We arrived very early. Because we were not familiar with the big city, we headed out quite early and alhamdulillah, the journey went so well and we didn't got lost, therefore there were no arguments in the car. Phheww.. Weather was good even though it was a little bit humid. We stayed at my best friend's place in Puchong and the journey to the venue took us about 30 minutes with 40 kilometers of driving. Traffic was good to us too.

It was a teary moment for me when Alina's dad and brother gave their speech. I always love hearing speeches given by people who are very close with either the bride or groom. The speeches sounded very sincere. But you can't expect me to shed my tears when I'm sited at the main table.

Alina and I met in 2006 during our diploma convocation. We never knew each other before that. When the event ended, , me and my family wanted to take photos outside the stadium and coincidentally Alina and her family were there too. We asked her help to take our photos and the rest was history. I never knew that the brief hello we had in 2006 could lead our friendship to this day. To witness the event of their lifetime and I'm a truly happy friend that she has found a truly loving husband.

I take friendship seriously and I would go to any extend for my friends. People like this are worth keeping and those that are bad, take it as an experience.

Though miles may lie between us we are never far apart, for friendship doesn't count miles it measures by the heart.
