congrats jenny and ed!!
this past weekend, i went to my cousin jenny’s wedding 
this was my first wedding since approximately 6th grade. and i guess perhaps due to age (what 12 year old really understands what’s going on during a wedding? i certainly didn’t) and perhaps because i actually knew this cousin (i’m not really close to my other cousins 
because of the huge age difference), i actually thought it was beautiful and almost … sniff sniff… cried. (not to say my other cousins’ weddings weren’t beautiful either… i was probably just too distracted by i dunno… what was going to be for dinner at the reception? why is the sky blue? etc etc)
yupyup, it was so cute seeing the two of them together, so happy and in love 
. they’ve been together for 8..9.. 10? years is it? (many jokes cracked about them finally getting married. i only met ed once before the wedding, but i guess through all the stories i heard and just seeing how happy the two of them were, awwwwwwww waiting to get some pictures that i can post
it was also great seeing most of my girl cousins (on my mom’s side) all together for a rare occassion. my cousin chantal- whose real name i discovered, following the trend of my cousins’ changing their identity on me, is not (badly pinyin-ed) xiang-ge but actually xiang-hua and who has changed her english name from melody to chantal- and my grandparents even came in from taiwan! it was great hanging out with them for even the short amount of time we were able to… haha, we were going to have a sleepover the night before the wedding, but jenny’s mom nixed the idea. (or more, said we could have it, but that jenny wouldn’t be able to join us 
haha, probably better that we didn’t do that)
so congrats to jenny and ed! may you (translated from chinese) “live together until the hair is white” and “hurry up and have kids” 
jie- the clock is ticking… you have 2 months! i’m waiting… jk
on another side note: luckily jenny and ed married before i took over the world… b/c they definitely blow the IQ cap of married couples that i’d put in effect as my first order of business. hey, my kids have got to be able to compete in the real world!
