Hi everyone hope you guys are enjoying your evening. I want to start by thanking everyone for coming here on this humid Singaporean Day to celebrate the joining of the two most disgustingly publically affectionate happy people that I know… except for when they’re belligerently drunk. Most gracious to those who have traveled far…I see NY, I see Taiwan, I see HK. Thank you guys for making the trip.
I would first like to start by asking everyone to please raise your glasses and thanking Will and Sabrina’s parents for 1. Having such beautiful children (maybe just Sabrina and Vivian lee wei han… since will definitely got the butt end of the genes) and 2. For letting me speak publically about the sheer jealousy I have of Sabrina.
For those that don’t know me, I’m alex. The best man that showed up late for the ceremony this morning. If u know will, then u know it was my fault cuz he didn’t tell me the right time to show up but im beginning to believe the only reason im the best man is to guarantee that I would show up.
I met will in college. We were in the same fraternity. And then we Realized our parents came from similar backgrounds (Taiwan and Indonesia) and thru skipping class, karaoke, david tao and way too much alcohol…we became roommates. So with my best intentions, Sabrina & mom and dad…I apologize for any bad habits will developed during that period of time.
As with any best man speech, trying to remember kosher and non homosexual anecdotes to share with the public has proven quite difficult…like the time will and I did 2 years of nyu fashion show together – chock full of topless scenes and dance routines. And then there was that time we went drinking then ran down 5th avenue topless chasing each other. So I’d much rather spend time here, telling the story about Will and Sabrina.
2 years ago,…I used to live in Singapore. Thru Jae and a lot wild KTV nights I met the singing sensation Sabrina Tye and almost immediately I thought, “hey you have to meet my friend will, you guys would totally get along”, from that point on, I started running my mouth, cuz that’s what I do best. “he’s a model, you would love him.” “he’s super smart…he’s perfect for you” “his Cantonese is terrible, you can teach him” “he’s sensitive like a girl so he’d treat you really well” “he has child bearing hips…very sexy” “he uses nair, you can just use his” “did I mention he used to model?”
about a month later they met in HK and from that day on it’s been nothing but I love you’s, omelets in the shape of hearts, way too much kissing in front of me and way too much hand holding and groping under the table. What more could I do at that point but put my head down and say “he’s found her, he’s found the right one.”
Sabrina, you look amazing tonight…I’ve never seen you more happy than when you‘re with will. And at the same time u’ve probably never seen me more sad when u’re with him because I get neglected. So be lucky im happy for you and be happy that u’re lucky to be with him.
Will & Sabrina - There are a lot of memories that I could have mentioned tonight (thankfully after some sound advice from chomo I left these out) but if life is measured by ones experiences (and bad advice) – I want to thank you for making everyone of mine unforgettable…I can only hope there are many more to come.
I would like everyone to please raise their glasses – To will and Sabrina…may you live long , laugh often and love always.
nice socks!
