Its the month I dread most and I cant help aswering the numerous phone calls and sms from long time friends I thought were lost for ever! Its all about people and colleagues pursuing u relentlessly to help them wed their so called sweet luvs.Is this a sham or an old skul tradition whose tym of extinction was supposed to be yesterday?Why should u help someone wed?Is it an emergency to wed?

Pain,definitely a pain.

In my humble opinion,if you cant afford something,please dont beg to get/do it. Why do we think weddin ceremonies are excemptions? It is begging whatever name you give it. Imagine begging to get wife?!!!?!!

In life one must do some thing for himself:


Get an education
choose a wife
Get the wife under ur roof
impregnate her
cater for maternity and other bills
cater for ur own funeral

Most of all the other things in life,pple can/will do for you,lakini hizi,tafadhali do for yourself. Hata DC wedding ni wedding pia. Marrying traditionally ni wedding pia.

For me its the opposite. I take great exception if one of my close friends does a wedding and doesnt call me for his committee.

I say this because when I was doing my wedding,my close friends support almost overwhelmed me. On their own free will they gave me enough to cater for 75% of my wedding budget!!!. That is why i take offense now that I have the uwezo and someone (esp. if they were in my committee) not to call me up.

@miau

Last year in October,I received 4 calls from 4 different people and all were planning to wed their loved ones in December of that year.
-Person No. 1 was my relative.
-Person No. 2 was my high school class mate and cant tell where he got my number from.
-Person No. 3 a work mate and very closs associate.
-Person No. 4 a friend we regulary swallow together.

I was torn between the four and here was my badly damaged payslip coz of a plot loan I was servicing.

As much as weddings are good,I think they should be regulated.

For me,when the time will come,I will not do a ceremonial wedding but the AG one if all we want is a certificate,if church one,our church Roman catholic allows a wedding from a minimum of 4 people and thats what I will do.
