This gonna be a very long entry, cuz I am staying up to watch the Juve vs Liverpool match, and progress for revision has been quite slow since an hour ago, and they are showing Friends replay on tv at the moment (at least its not days of our lives right?). So here's the part 1 of the special two parts blog entry for this morning:
I admit, I have not been diligently applying toner to my face at night. No wonder my complexion is still so bad. -shudders- oh no, i have told you man's best kept secret - we do facial too! No la, not really "facial". It started out with me teasing 发发 for doing "facial" every night. Toner, moisturizer, night repair, eye lid cream... whitening cream? ha ha, the latter was my recommendation for him due to his dark complexion. One day I shared this joke with my gf, and being a caring gf, she got me a bottle of nivea visage (yeah, that expensive brand!) refreshing toner. Everyone likes picture, there is a picture of it below, sitting on top of my pile of robotics notes on my messy table. And being a understanding bf, i started using it too, well, for a few weeks, on and off. ha ha. Seriously, I think its okay if men want to spend some money on taking care of their faces. No need to hide your daily activity behind the hostel doors, I have stepped forward to reveal the truth!
The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)
