congratulations to khine and kevin. as of today they are officially husband and wife. their wedding was yesterday, july16, 2006. khine as expected looked gorgeus in her burmese wedding attire. by the way so did cynthia. cynthia was one of the brides maid. and if i dont mention megan here i might run into a few problems. so megan sick u looked equally beautiful in the burmese clothes. no really, u did. ;0) it was from what i understand a traditional burmese wedding. the actual ceremony part was barely 15 minutes. the shortest wedding i have been to considering the fact just the ceremony in traditional hindu weddings can itself be a few hours. the wedding was in east manor restaurant in elmhurst, new york which, by the way, was beautifully decorated. it had a very upscale and polished look to it. i dont know what others thought about it but i thought it was a great place. alok and me were the only indian people and megan only one of the two caucasians at the wedding. i say that not to suggest that we felt out of place. we didnt. at least i didnt. in any case, we were there from 6pm to 845 pm, and then drove back. the ride back should have been 3.5 hours but ended up being more like 4.5 hours (as we ran into some glitches). got back to jonhson city at 2am. just as a side note, the waiter i think forgot to bring out alok and mine vegetarian food out because somebody had to remind him (thanks to khine’s other med school friend), but no complains there. when one of your best friend is getting married, small things like that dont matter. that reminds me, the first time i met khine, she tells me i did not introduce myself or say hi although i did introduce myself to everyone around her. if that is true and i have no reason to beleive it isnt, isnt it amazing i drove some 8-9 hours in one day to be at her wedding. we have come some ways. congrats to kevin and khine. may all their dreams come true and together they touch the stars. i wish them all the best.

hellooooo! my first visit to your blog, finally. Geez, “by the way” thanks for mentioning me in there too…. ;) Can this thing post pics too? One of us better bring a camera next time. Since you guys so kindly left them for our taking, we cleared your veggie plates. Too bad, you missed out on the good stuff like sea-cucumbers (mmm). Come back to Syracuse soon because Sahota’s is losing business without you guys!
