cambridge dinner

of course it was nice. well... let's start from the beginning. was supposed to go to mh house to make up and all but the rest later had to go at 3. so i didnt join them. anyway... xt told me that hh was "gorgeous" (quoting from her). haha. looks like turaiya did a good job. so i went by cab to swissotel. met yq and serene. went up to the canning ballroom and so many ppl were there! and of course.. the 1st thing i did was to find hh. to see her in that dress we made her buy the day before, and the slippers and the necklace. and to see what turaiya did to her. haha. she looked totally different! but very nice. and pretty! ah ruo and a few of us were shouting "mei nu! chio bu!" when she walked past our table.

well anyway... took many many pictures with friends...some unrecognisable. i cldnt recognise celene! i thought she was a stranger. oops! but all of us looked pretty and beautiful... haha. i think we took pictures for an hour? hAhA.

then we went in to the ballroom. oh yea! the bear bear at the welcome table was so cute!! i love it. sat with partner, yixian, yw, janice, yq, xinyi, ah ruo, serene & celene at our table. started with some praise & worship... and finally the food! hA. the 1st dish was served by the sec3s... while eating... there were blessed draws, miss cambridge pageant and games going on. yixian, partner and xinyi wn something. then there was this most creative "yam seng" thing. yixian came up with a musical yam seng... but the most creative one was the 2 tables which invaded the stage. haha. janice went up on our behalf to play the game for someone who had the longest breath. she got 2nd!! haha. mr low was up there too. we cldnt recognise ms ferng!! i thought she was a student!! hAhA!

dinner was so-so. i didnt like the desert since there was honey dew in it. and xin yi cldnt eat the rest so we made her eat the desert! we brought the whole bowl to her. almost made her drink from the ladle. haha. priscilla won the ms charismile (charisma + smile) for the pageant and ms cambridge was jeane from 4c1. yep. oh...for the blessed draw... wenxin won the 1st prize!! congrats! and she looked so pretty! as always. then there was a video presentation by the dinner committee. then the head & vice head prefect said some words ... followed by rhubini.

we were allowed to stay in the ballroom until 2330h. 1st we took a class photo...but i think only half the class was present. then we rushed to take a batch 33 sqd photo at the toilet. xt's friend helped us. and she was so funny! haHa. after that got a lift from meli together with janice, yw and mw. found out that the lift was off after 11pm! and celene had a rm on the 58th floor! oh no.

in the car... i think meli was falling asleep but the 4 of us behind were making too much noise... taking pictures... and talking non-stop. esp about harry potter!! haha. talking about cedric, harry, the 4th show, the 5th and 6th book. and a lot more. seriously...we were making a lot of noise. oops. haha.

overall..i think the dinner was a great success and i think the committee orgainsed the event very well. the programme went on smoothly...and i think we totally enjoyed ourselves...from taking pictures...to eating. haha. all of us looked different and like we've never seen before. i'm sure we'll always rmb this night. well...it's 2 years before the next one. hEE!~
