My husband and I went to a wedding last Saturday. And since it was a family affair, distant relatives showed up. What was amusing on that night, besides the party itself, was the trail of conversations. I suppose you could relate with at least one of the following as you might have found yourself in the same string of chats.
1. In the midst of mature people, exchanges usually center around the most recent illness, symptoms of such, medicines taken, who else is struck with it (it could be another family member or the nearest neighbor), AND the last person they knew who died because of it. I really think this topic sells hot that is why it made to the top spot.
2. Whereabouts of guests who did not show up.
3. Latest profession. Some really have the passion of describing what they do up to the most minute details.
4. If one is with first-time parents, experiences with their little rascals are highly shared.
5. FOOD. It could be a favorite dish or the ones served. Guests relate how they distinctly prepare native dishes and try to guess the most unthinkable ingredient thrown into the food served. I could only think about salt and pepper.
6. DRINKS. From the safest unadulterated drinks to the ones that may win you a ticket if caught driving by a police: liquors.
7. The latest and most sensational news. Nope, we did not talk about politics on that fateful night thank God, but we feasted on the scandal of one of the high schools here.
8. This should not make it on the list, but I would like to affirm the popularity of the Village People because their hit YMCA breaks language barriers. The moment the DJ played it, 75% of the crowd started to dance the once famous disco beat.
9. Who dances the most and who should enroll in a dance class. Geesh, everyone is a critique.
10. And since it was a wedding, it would be weird if people failed to talk about marriage life. I am a pro family person so I love this : )
Can't wait to go to the next one ; p
