CAMEROONs... oops... I meant Cameron Highlands.
Just got exited while typing the name as it brought memories when Senegal won against France. It was the that world cup that got my interest into watching football and since then never missed it. Though to clarify things... I LOVE GERMANY!!!!!!!!
Ok that was out of topic, back to present!
Well I'll make this short...we went to Taiping lepak... went up Camerons... visited the fellowship camp going on, and the went to the tea plantation. It was actually my first time to a tea plantation!
Lovely Trip With Lovely People
Let the pictures say themselves
YAY!

Maiyan thal, it was a headache looking for the right grass for the teil. Once we got the grass another issue was to cut or not to cut...some say cannot cut...some say can...hajjo.
One by one all line up to do their part... =) My brother got to eat his favorite berfi and in addition a bit of yogurt and haldi because they fed him with the same right hand.
After he takes his shower, sweet rice time....if you notice, Naamjit got a big spatula to feed. What goes around comes around as he got fed back with it.
The amount of photographers we had was awesome... most of them were friends of my brothers. What else when your brother is a professional photographer.

Morning we got ready did all the customary sagan, surma, sehra, ganne, tel cho, and tie the gutte in front of the wedding car.
As my dad joined in the wedding car, I drove my car with my mom and sister, the rest of the janj went in the two buses and some by their cars. That's my car behind the wedding car. =)

Welcome 2011
It's a new year and there calls for major changes. It was about time for a change in my life. My year started of jobless - pretty interesting. I had to focus on my brother's wedding while looking for another job. Well the looking for a job wasn't so difficult, and the brother's wedding was the agenda that ripped of the whole month of my life.
Seriously, one whole month, where did it go, I wasn't going to work, I was mostly at home. I can't believe it myself, one whole month has vanished and passed by. Though I must say I enjoyed the wedding fully.
I'll make sure to post the links for all the pictures and video for my brother's wedding here. From the maiyan, sangeet, wedding, prayer and until the dinner, everything was fabulous. And since my brother is a professional photographer, he had so many friends taking pictures as they are all professional photographers.
That's something I could blog about some day too.... Advertising my brothers phography skills... =)
Ok January passed and Chinese New Year was my break or in other words, time to recover from wedding... he he he... Then 8th of February 2011 came.... back to work...new job, new friends, new environment... YIPPIE!!!
