Wedding Bells!

This year seems like a good time to get married. Cousin's wedding tonight, a colleague's big day the following week and two other upcoming weddings in the next half-year. I'm rather looking forward to one of them, as it will be my first church wedding! The trail of the long white gown tail on the red carpet, to the tune of the Wedding March, to the beaming groom at the front of the aisle and the mother dabbing her eyes with nostalgia. Aww. Church weddings romanticised in my mind, I admit, is largely due to all that exposure on tv. The yam-senging, drum-beating at void decks seems just a lil contrived. But of course, all weddings are happy affairs.
Been meeting up with old friends recently, and we have been talking about how quickly time flies and how lots of folks are actually getting married at 24, which is like two yrs away! In another 10 years, we might be turning up for gatherings with little toddlers in tow. I really can't imagine!
For some annoying reason, the Gatsby jingle for its moving rubber wax ad has been on replay in my head at the weirdest moments. If not for 木村拓哉 , I don't think it would have stuck so firmly. I used to be fond of Takuya Kimura, and which girl wasn't? Then it kind of faded over the years (or rather he was overtaken by others) till I started watching the ice hockey jap drama on Sat afternoons. As the charming, headstrong, act-like-he-can't-be-bothered-but-actually-cares-deep-down team captain, he swept me off my feet again. Just like that, you ask? Of course of course, this is 木村拓哉 you know!
And then there's Rosie Thomas, whose songs I just got acquainted with:
