from 26 to 28 May
Just a quick summary of events happened.
26 May 2005
Met up with two "ah Shuis" for dinner before the go for their vocal class as this week isn't their work load "peak period" (meaning they could leave office on the dot).
Keke, after leaving the company for a few months, now i sort of forgotten when is the magazine's peak workload period.
So nice to have dinner with them, reminds me of the times where a big group of us went out to have lunch at Genting Canteen or Ruby or JTC.
Received a free copy of Her World from Nana though I asked her to help me to get one from the Circulation instead. (As employees, they could purchase mags at 20% off).
She also passed me two boxes of colourful beads, saying French gotten them when she when to refuel petrol for her car weeks ago, and tot that these beads are "so me". Hmm, dun wanna make them into bracelets as they seems a bit kiddish, perhaps will use them for my cards instead.
Accompanied them to the classroom. Reached there quite early and we compared our notes. Found out that our homework are slightly different. Also saw quite a few familar faces coming into the room at that time. As there's nothing much for me to do at home, decided to wait for them. Poor Jiahao had nothing to read while I was browsing through my magazine.
28 May 2005
Went to attend B. Tan's wedding dinner in the evening. Had to say we are honored to attend his wedding dinner as he only invited the two of us from our organization. He used to work as IT staff located at our headquarters, and thus will drop by to our department whenever there is new staff coming. Recently , he was transferred (could say it’s sort of a promotion) to another organization, hence we are not in contact with him in terms of work.
Hmm, the dinner was held at Neptune --- yes the one famous of the "adult dance" show, but nope, we din get to see the show ( of cos! ). We watched a video whowing the pictures of teh couple -- from their baby pics to their recent pics. The bride used to be quite chubby in her teenage years, and how she's so slim!
Keke the couple really look cute together, cos B is rather tall, more than 1.8m and she;s abt 1.6m.
Can see why B choose the locate as it has a big stage, the tables are arranged in a semi circle in front of the stage. for better viewing . Feels like u are attending a opera with dinner served. Hahaha
Ther is a live band performance, put up by B's friend. Not an impressive show though. There isn't any drum set and it was replaced by some enthic drums insteads. The two females singers choose to sing songs that are really 冷门, and we couldn't really make out what they are singing. Prob not caused by sound system though....
Quite demoralising for them as beside their friends who listening to them, the rest of the guests were continue talking and eating.
It is only when the bride and the bridegroom came on stage to sang an English duet, then the guests give them their full attention. Hmm, the bride has a sweet voice while B sang like ah beng. hahaha.
The couple are rather smart, think they purposely waited till an hour before the dinner end, then they start going round 40 tables to photos with the guest. Thus nobody dare to "sabo" them as they can see they are running short of time.
I expected to see some "cheapo men", getting drunk on the free wine served. But it turned out that one group of aunties getting drunk and rowdy instead....
oh yah,here's a pic of the couple.
Hahaha. just joking. For privacy reasons, I shan't put the pic of them taken with us on this public site. All the guests receive a mini teddy bear each, a refreshing change from the usual slice of fruit cake.
