This is my speech on my brother's wedding banquet.
*****
Good evening, its great to have everyone of you here tonight. Im Susana, the sister of bridegroom. Is he super duper handsome today? Ok, Im going to share with you the story of this very important man of mine.
His full name: Sze Kah Yit, nickname: Ah Beng (emphasize is "Ah Beng!" not "Ah Beng~~"), a secondary schoold teacher at Bintulu, the 3rd child in family. He couldn't sing and dance well. Favourite sport: Ping pong & jogging. Favourite game: Chinese Chess. Extremely enjoy watching movie at Cineplex & "screaming" at Karaoke.
Ok, Im done with formal introduction. We proceed the interesting part regarding my Ah Beng koko.
He lost his school bag on his first day of Form 6! During his three years university life, he lost 2 computers on campus, dropped 2 hand phones and 2 expensive watches! Not only that, he also lost a set of auto gate remote control and house key EVERY TIME he was on his school holiday from Bintulu! Now, we will try our very best to reduce the chances of letting him to hold our house remote control. We also pray very hard that he won’t lose his child at shopping mall in future. Addrienne (my sister in law), please take precaution on that! Because if it happens, he will only realize after 2 days. Trust me!!
Ok, ok. I know Uncle John started to worry already. Don’t worries too much, my brother is also a very good man!! *throw a question to the floor* Ok, friends and relatives, if you agree that my brother is a good, loving and handsome man, please put up your both hands PLEASE???
wah, uncountable hands!! see, ko, I told you already it is worth to give me an big ang pao today!!” Ok, how good, loving & handsome he is actually? According to mum, he was a kind-hearted kid when he was young because he would cry over his dead pet, ANT!! To me, he is the best joker in family. He can start laughing even before he started his joke. I remember once, my parents found the house gate was widely open, house door was unlocked, light and ceiling fan were all on when they got back from outside at night time. My mum was so mad and wanted to scold him badly! while I was waiting for a good show, when he was back, he explained smartly that: “I leave the gate open so that you no need to find your remote control from you big handbag! I unlocked the house door because I know it is hard for your eyes to put in the key into the key hole! I didn’t off the fan because the weather is hot and you must be sweating!! I didn’t off the light because I don’t want you to fall down! Mom, I really Love you!” End up; my mum went out to buy supper for him!

Whenever he is with us, the laughter of our family could be heard from 10 blocks away. He is also the only one among the siblings that willing to wake up early to jog with parents, to bring parents for movie and to buy parents concert ticket and company them all the way until the concert end. Even though he only realized he lost the ticket before the concert started, we still think he is lovely because the thought does matter!
So, I’m pretty sure that my brother will also start his new chapter of life with Addrienne in his cheerful and loving way, of course with God’s grace. Our family understands that addrienne might need to adjust herself in our Chinese family: different culture, different food, difficult mandarin and Hakka, but on behalf of my family, we promise uncle John, not only my brother, everyone of us will love her wholeheartedly.
To the two happiest people on earth, Mr and Mrs Sze Kah yit. I want to wish you God's Blessing on Your Wedding Day and may He always be the heart of your marriage, the light of your home. Congratulations!
I pray that you both could still call each other “honey” or “sweetheart”, kiss and hug each other even when you are 88 years old.
