Today was Jenn's wedding, and being the Chinese Emcee ( yes...Chinese emcee...), I had to be there earlier for briefing. I could really tell that the gals were super exhausted from their Jie Mei activities earlier, cept for Joyce who is like a hyper active bunny with braces.

Rehearsed the script with my fellow emcee and did some last minute scribbling on speech cards, cause apparently they were going to sabo the unsuspecting couple onstage. Man, my Chinese writing really sucks lah. Can't even write simple words like 鸡蛋 or 解释!! And to think that I am the Chinese Emcee. Ha!!

Anyway, was abit nervous before the thing started, as this is my first time hosting a wedding, so there was a bit of stage fright. Luckily, due to my not so awesome experinces dancing onstage, I was still pretty ok when delivering the speech, although I felt that my voice was trembling abit. It got easier as I spoke more in my Jiat Kang Tan accent. However, during the toasting session, after I had counted to 3 for the people to start shouting "Yum Seng", I nearly fainted cause there wasn't anyone who was shouting. So I had to use the mike and get the ball rolling, although I got comments that I seemed abit enthusiastic about toasting the couple!

All, in all, in my awesome suit, and my awesome Jiat Kang Tan accent, I managed to pass through the whole event as a Chinese Emcee without any hiccups... Thus, from now onwards, I shall be known as Chinese Emcee Cheong!

Maybe I should do this more often...... NAH!!!!
