love the wang

i’m old. i know this because i’ve been going to weddings, engagement parties, bachelorette parties, bridal showers, baby showers, toddler’s birthdays…etc. (apparently, i’m also broke.) i have a specific catagory in my mail sort reserved for invitations and i’m adding “professional party attendee” to my list of hobbies on facebook.

this weekend, i went to the nuptuals of Jessica & Derek. i went to college with Jess and she was pretty much the life of the party everywhere we went. we all took a minute to mourn the fact that it would no longer be appropriate to send Jess to the front of the line to flirt with the bouncer when we needed to get into a hotspot.

the wedding wasn’t huge or extravegant, but it was fill with this genuine feel of love. it was intimate in a way that everyone felt free to just dance and sing and completely be themselves because we were all amongst friends. plus, you know when asian grandma’s on the dancefloor cutting a rug, it’s a party. of all the weddings i’ve gone to, it was, the most fun.  

from left, it’s natasha, michelle, alice, desiree and me (i’m the one farting the flower.) they’re the reason for all the fun, i think. i never had any siblings, but if i did, i would want them to be just like these girls: uninhibited, funny, supportive and always always inappropiate. they are in this life, part of who i consider family. they are better versions of me, people whose qualities i aim to acquire. and when the storm clouds roll in, they are the ones with umbrellas that not only shield themselves, but me. and i love them.
