Aubade da New Era

籌備已久的婚宴告一段落
幸有渡蜜月這傢伙填補霎時空虚的心靈

那一個晚上匆匆而過
實在枉對了我們一年來跑過的腿
為著讓這重要的一剎更精彩難忘賓客更融入其中
我們煞盡思量想著每一部份將如何部署
說了無數次的「一生人一次就此一次喇」
我們唱歌你會不會拍手我們跳舞你會不會歡笑

徹底忘了一件東西
叫世事豈盡人意
說準一點是豈盡我意
聲音忽又沙啞了連山盟海誓也說得難聽
如何唱歌
捱了幾晚趕著做guest list做rundown做seating plan
連睡也覺奢侈
腳也軟了何以跳舞

最不能感受婚禮的氣氛是要結婚的二人
我說好了要好的live band唱好的樂曲
live band究竟唱了多久我不知道
美女主音臨時甩底換了份量型歌后我不知道
換過衣裳音樂也靜止了
我要求dancing queen伴我toasting
可是皇后不見了

不要說不打緊
不要說我完美主義
如果你知道我花了多少心血來為晚宴篩選樂曲
你會替我感不值嗎

宴會結束了
叫不叫圓滿我不知道
希望你們相信
我從來不是只為滿足自己

請問
那不足料的演唱有沒有讓你們的心開過

Our new life just started here,
with the kickoff of our honeymoon trip.

Landing on this beautiful territory,
and I was just too desperate for sleep.

We spent our first day wandering around Cairns town centre,
and headed to Green Island on the second morning.

The weather is fine, very warm and actually a bit hot.
The sun is shining all the way.
We were snorkelling, kayaking and swimming with the sea turtles till the sun set.

There’s nothing much we can eat here,
so I just kept taking in potato chips.
We joined a night walk tour before the day ends,
all I could see are pairs of Crocs on Japanese feet.

It’s such a peaceful island that everyone should have gone to sleep,
while I am staying in front of the only internet terminal uploading bullshit.

Dear Friends,

We were in a way too rush to pack up for our honeymoon trip and not yet grabbed the chance to express our heartfelt thanks to you all.
My dear bridesmaids, groomsmen, guests of the party.
We are so honored to have you as a witness of our marriage.

The night was moving on too quickly that I didn’t even have time to taste it.
Thanks for capturing the moments for us.
I will always find “joy & happiness” from the bits and pieces being recorded.

I got a few lines to jot down for my wedding,
will do that if I can input Chinese sooner.

Cheers,
Helen @ honeymoon
