Wedding Season
* The Open Day went great in my opinion.. We had lots of fun and lots of food… I enjoyed meeting two bloggers in real life… I made a Caesar salad, a cheese bee-hive with sesame seeds on top and a pineapple cake… Can’t wait to hear reviews about the whole gathering from the people who attended 
Onto the post…
So wedding season is upon us, and as a girl, it’s very very exhausting.. how, you say?
Well, you have to have a bunch of outfits, shoes and accessories ready.. and if you go to family X’s wedding in an outfit, and you see a big bunch of people from family Y, you can’t wear that same outfit for the upcoming week’s Y wedding cos a big bunch of them already saw u in it… Kill me now…
So I have.. lemme count… 8 outfits, and I have to do the math and try not to mix up the families and who saw me in which outfit and where and when.. Why can’t I just be Sex & The City’s Charlotte and have a never ending closet of elegant clothes?!
Something like this, maybe? Allahhh, pink heels and dangly pink earrings… yum..
Last night I went to a wedding, and of course, because the family knows us, we were supposed to dance.. and which song did my aunts choose to get up to?
That stupid “Taxi” song… I HATE that song.. it’s not even a song!! it’s stupidity that happens to rhyme! How can you dance to something about dating in a taxi!? Who the hell does that anymore in the first place?!
It’s like the dude was trying to win a stupid bet! “Let’s see if we can drive people crazy with a song so stupid, it’ll make everyone look hilarious while singing along… oh yeah! a song about “el tttaaaaaaaaaaakehseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
Oh, and while i was dancing (to a completely different song!) I noticed some girls who wore their tan with pride, whereas some chicks were sticking to the whole white powder/concealer/foundation routine and they look like they were dipped in flour… why tan if you still want to be white for a wedding? Blekh..
Men have it easy I guess, elbes el dishdasha and leave the house, say hi to the groom, kiss some men hello and then have dinner and leave! During a wedding, I hate just sitting there and watching people dance, talk, fix dresses and take pics.. I eventually end up really really bored..
I guess the only fun thing to do at a wedding is to observe the behaviour so I could report it here.. so help me God!

Oh my God! This was the first time I heard about this Taxi song, it is horrendous!! Do people dance to that? Who likes that kinda music?

I’m pretty sure he’s not serious about his songs, the Taxi one and “Yumma 5i6bili 5lich 7deed” one. It’s like an inside joke.
About weddings, just enjoy the damn thing. From what I hear, if it’s not yours or your family’s it’s fun. You don’t have to worry about stuffs. =O

Lool Come on observing can be fun, but letting go and joining the 6amasha is more fun.
i heard the song sounds funny you can dance on your own beats . ;p

OMG weddings are an extreme burden. They’re so theatrical, and everything is both extravagant and fake. Bes I’m glad alllllll the generous food I made for the open day was gone moments after the buffet was open. Ahhhh I feel so good knowing that everybody loves my delicious dishes XD

I think that’s because that culture became so …, I dont know people who just care about looks and other unnecessary stuff.

Weddings here are just for show and a waste of money to cater to the vultures.

I love mixed weddings they are much better than our lame fashion shows, well some families have nice weddings but many don’t!
I hope mine is a mixed wedding ;p I want it on a beach also, in bikinis don’t you agree?
