My intended speech for the wedding

This was what I intended to say for the speech at my wedding, but I left my notes in my book and in my room and ended up saying some rubbish which I can't remember.

"我想在此感谢小黑的家庭。从小黑第一天把我介绍给你们时,你们大家就非常温心的欢迎我进入郑家。
Auntie and Uncle:我虽然有时有一点疯疯癫癫,可是我答应你们我一定会好好的照顾你的儿子。他吃鱼翅,我吃鲍鱼。 他吃cheng teng 我吃燕窝。 =)

To my dearest friends, who know that I am not good with expressing mushy words of love and gratitude and stuff, I would like to here say a few words of thanks to some people for their effort put into this magificent wedding.

Lynnette: For the immaculate design work for the invitation cards. Thanks for understand what I wanted without even me explaining anything. I hope you know how talented and gifted you are and don't ever let anyone make you think otherwise.

Debby: If not for you stepping in at the last min and taking charge of the situation. This wedding would have been nothing.

Lydia: Thanks so much for volunteering your services as an emcee for the wedding, working so that me and Xiaohei can enjoy your night.

A special thanks to whoe who have specially flew down for the wedding;
1. Adam and Paula
2. E-Lin and Mark
Congratulations to the pregnancy. I became a wife and an aunt in a week!!!
3. My best friend of 9 years, Jessie Ang Pei Shan. We have the wildest time together always
4. Ivan and Eurris. My brother, my siheng.
And last but not least, Sheena and Giada. I have the prettiest flowergirl ever! Sheena, you didn;t have to go through all the trouble for me because we don't even know each other so well but you did and I don't think I can ever express enough gratitude.

Saving the most imporant for the last, I would like to thank my family; Dad, Mum, E-Lin, Mark, E-Chiing and Lydia. I may have Singapore's most dysfunctional family ever with my long hair dad and my aussie PR sister and her ang-moh husband but I know you guys will always love me and always be there for me. I can't be more proud to be part of any other family. "

See, I had such a structured, well thought out speech and it just went spat....
