OCS MIDS COMMISSIONING Ball - An IR-resistable Nite
Wednesday, December 23, 2009 at 11:59 PM
cleared my time off to leave office at 3.30pm today so that i wouldnt be late :) reached home at record time (just slightly more than half an hour!) i simply love the smooth, jam-less traffic! :D got myself dolled up and waited Jin Chang's call once he got on the cab :)
hopped onto the cab at about 535pm? we got more than an hour before we need to reach Fullerton :p so we would be very early but heck better early than get stuck in the traffic jam at AYE which would always happen later
in the cab :D the only thing that he brought was the invitation card, his hp and wallet and he asked me: "need to bring what ar?" =.= i told him its HIS commissioning ball, how would i know what he have to bring?
reach Fullerton at around 6-ish had my cab door opened by the doorman i can feel the ata-ness from the outside :x
but we werent the earliest we saw a few more couples roaming around the lobby area too :p my first time in Fullerton it is indeed a high class hotel first place to go was the toilet that Jin Chang made me wait for outrageously long lo =.= is it a new trend to let the ladies wait? took a walk around and snap pictures in and outside the toilet love the decors! :)
around 630pm we went up to the Rooftop at level 5 for the cocktail reception felt a bit awkward hahahs cause Jin Chang is just a friend and i felt kinda out of place :x
there was this free photoshoot service can get the photos printed instantly too :) i didnt want to take with Jin Chang at first but dont want to dampen his spirits so we took it in the end it was so open la like in front of everyone around :x but heck its was kinda fun actually, as long as i focus on the photographer and not the crowd :p the photographer also keep asking us to do different poses and i laughed at Jin Chang's individual shoots it was funny when he didnt do a pose correctly :p
Entered the Straits Ballroom :) love chandeliers! ^^
Menu and chips on our table pardon the poor quality photos :/ orange chandelier lights are not good to take photo in with my Sony :( (i should have used flash! damn!)
there were some opening speeches before the food was served we never get to see the whole plate of food as we were served with our own portions the service was damn good :)
the programmes for the day ran as we ate the first game was texas hodem, which explains the chips on our table but it wasnt really a good table game i guess hahahs failed to bring up the mood :x then we had a magic show by Singaporean Magician - Jeremy he was good but i sat too far from the stage got to stretch my neck to see and i got the worse seat ever can - last table plus back facing stage =.= zzzz then we also had lucky draws which follows the concept of the Naval Diver's dinner ;p and also funny prize awards to the guys ie Mr Homeboy, Mr Permanent Resident etc they also had the buddies of the nominees for a particular award to come forward to "sell" them like a product the floor could also choose who is the winner by cheering it was quite fun la :)
neither me and JC got lucky with the lucky draws but it doesnt really matter anyhow :) nearing the end, they had the whole cohort up the stage for phototaking my camera sucks la! :/ this was the best i can do :(
and i think all the dates (girls) that went have another role to play too - photographer :X hahahahs you see the guys nudge their dates to help them take photos with everybody =.= tsk but its their night so i think the girls are not complaining :) luckily JC didnt do that to me :p
me and the ladies at my table :)
we finally collected our instant photo taken at the cocktail reception nearing the end of the dinner :p it is nice no? hahahahs
BUT there is only like one copy! and guess who took it? Not me :/ zzzz JC promised that he will pass it back to me after he got it scanned into his computer or something he better make good of his promise lo!
finally the dinner ended and the whole lot of people start taking photos :) there is a joyful spirit in the air :D
me and Aw Siong :)
me and JC :D
JC and Brandon they have to take 3 times before they have a good take cause one didnt smile then the other one close eyes =.= lols
with JC's friend also 3 takes i dont know why JC flare his nostrils on the second photo but its damn funny :p
me and my brother's friends :D i met them at the Naval Diver Graduation dinner but i only recognise Shawn cause we sat the at the same table at the Diver's dinner :p the other guy came into picture when he asked Shawn why was he taking photo with a stranger then Shawn said i am Yeemin's sister and suddenly i hear a few more guys saying hi to me hahahahahs
with Shawn and date :)
left with Aw Siong after the phototaking as he was driving and me & JC could hitch the ride :)
home around 11-ish :x still got to work the next day :/ but luckily it was half day only! woo~~
