It was December 8, my
Wedding Day. It was 10:05 a.m and I had woken up because the alarm clock had
rung. I had only one hour to get
ready and leave because the ceremony was at 11:00, but I hadn’t even taken a
shower. I was nervous. By 10:45 I had already done it and also I had eaten
breakfast but I hadn’t gone to the beauty salon yet. When I got there, it was
open. My hairdresser had open early but he hasn`t receive me because he got
sick. So, we went back home, and my mom helped me with my hair, makeup
and dress.
Later, I received a call;
it was the priest telling me that he had gone out of town and he couldn’t
preach that day. Luckily, my mom could get another priest.
It was 12:00, a big
car had picked us up yet. Immediately, we go out to the church and arrived at 1:00p.m The guests
had been waiting for three hours.
Finally, I got married and
the reception was beautiful.
