Leong Mama and I didn't really realise that the Chinese customary ceremony for the bridal room is coming Thursday! We panicked, asked Darling to fetch us to the Chinese Wedding shop that sells everything needed for the ceremonies from the bridal room to the wedding day.
Come to think about it, opening shops like that is really a good idea. People (like me) who doesn't know much about Chinese customs for wedding ceremonies would just buy anything the person at the shop recommends. But we had Leong Mama with us so we were fine.
I find myself in a very funny situation. I tend to follow the Chinese customs so much. I felt that there is always a reason behind everything. Customs and traditions are so beautiful. I don't think it's all crap anyway. So, I told my mom about the hair combing ceremony the night before the wedding and what are the steps by steps, oh! and what are the do's and don'ts. She told me that she doesn't believe in all these. -_________-
Talking about Chinese customs and traditions, I found this photo of The Little One on her 1st birthday. Yes, how time flies!
We lay out a few items on the floor, from food to toys and a comb, asking The Little One to crawl and choose one. According to believes, the first item that the child picks would be his/her true interest/destiny.
Apparently, Darling picked a calculator too! And he is indeed very good at math, business strategies (it's his main job scope) while Leong Big Sis chose a drumstick (=.=!) and she loves good food!
I'll continue this tradition when both Daring and I are blessed with an opportunity to do so :)
XOXO,
