..Glitz, Glamour & Spunk..

The 15th of January 2012 was a day of Glitz, Glamour, and Spunk. My sister got married to one of the most eminent bachelors in Mangalore. It all started off three years ago when my sister wanted to get placed right after her graduation. So she met Mr. HR Manager for her job placement.....and that was it....that is all it took for him to fall in love. Love at first sight huh!

But on the other side, the scenario was different......guess whom my sister finds to introduce to my dad? Her placement manager.....n y? Because he is NOT my boyfriend......and he never stood a chance according to her.....for reasons unknown to me...

And before they even knew it was.....band,baaja,baaraat.....can u believe it? Sigh...even I could not believe that my sister could even think of getting hitched soo soon......if it was a guy I could say "MAN DOWN! MAN DOWN!" but unfortunately.....I cant....what would I say??? Hmmm......I haven't thought of it yet.......At least I got an HR Manager for a jeejaji.....

During all the functions before the wedding day, all my uncles kept teasing me "You're next! Your next!".....sheesh!! I mean can people get soo desperate about a wedding?

It's OK I got to play my part as a bridesmaid....a tough job....but a glamorous one I must say.... especially if you are a spinster looking to get hitched next (but trust me that was not even close to what I actually wanted). The highlight of this wedding was seeing my father burst into tears while giving her away. It was soo hard on him. But I think that is a good way for him to accept the fact that she was no longer gonna be home. And he was no longer going to be her hero.

My mother, as usual, was stressed about a zillion things in the world....right from the jewelry to the enormous turn out that actually attended the wedding. Thank god everything went smoothly or it could have ended up being a mess...

Sitting miles apart from her and my family, I will always remember that day with nostalgia. "Your mine, your mine....but never truly mine" is what I will always say...
