100th Post :University of Newcastle Ball at Pines.

My 100th post and its gonna be about the ball! YAY!

Supposed to have EFTS presentation in the morning but not surprisingly, I'll be doing it on Monday. Pfftt.

Rushed home after hanging with Jeez and her boy to get ready for the Ball. My mom pampered me with this body scrub and hair/head massage. So calming. Then it was all a matter of doing my hair, make-up and slipping in to THE dress and getting to pines.



Met AJ, Cva, Tasha, Lisha and Michael there. Waited for Chui Mei and Stacie who were stuck in jams.

First there were 5 of us then Stacie came and there were....

..... 6. Stace looking gorgeous in purple, Chui Mei in sexy black, plain ol' me, stunning Gen, sexy Cheryl and pretty pretty Gena.

Myself, Lisha and Tasha sat at table 10 with our dates while Stacie, Chui Mei, Gena, Gen and Yingzi sat at table 14, just behind us. Love this shot. =) These babes made the ball a whole lot more fun.
The boy who became my date. He asked me to dance just when I was really pissed off. Hard to resist the charm. LOL.


Its almost the whole table 10. Bola and Lisha were missing though. Tash and Samson, Jayasri and Ajit, Johanna and Sid, Theingi and Felix. Lisha and Bola were next to them. We were also probably the noisiest table.

Sid won "Biggest Tummy", Bola won "Best Dressed Male" and Rahul almost won "Tallest Male". AJ almost won too when the Emcee asked for a pair of ladies earrings. Now.. my earrings are in need of bending back to its original mould. Its amazing what his hands can do while sprinting to the stage.. LOL!

The food was good too. The list will include for those who love reading these tiny bits what was picked off my plate..)

For..
Starters : Open prawn and salad ( AJ swapped the WHOLE plate with me cos his wasn't de-shelled)
Soup: Creme` of Mushroom Soup (I was left in peace till this ice-breaker game resulted in the waiter taking away my soup.. ggrrrhh.)
Main course: There was the choice of fish in creme` sauce or chicken chop. I had the fish. (I think AJ wasn't hungry anymore and Sid's a vegan.)
Dessert: Tiramisu cake with strawberry and blackberry. (We were dancing mostly so didn't eat much..) Oh, Gen, noticed the fruit pairings??



Samson was fretting about his speech but it turned out well, even incorporating the diff nationalities.

Bola, Bola. Just to get this shot we had to go through 4 shots. His eyes were all over the place! LOL.


And of course, there's Ms Genevieve Lim in all her uhm.. shimmer. winks. This foxy laydee was hot as usual.

Stacie and I boogeyed even when the rest went off for dessert. Eric joined us too and though the dance floor was a lil cramped, we still shook enough booty. They even played Bhangra and Hindi fushion. Cool!!! Oh, and just when everyone was planning on calling it a night, they play the Hindi version of Pretty Woman. Hafiz and I were singing along. Funny funny.

Special thanks to Gen, Stacie, Yingzi and Chui Mei who knew something was wrong and for making it all better. Can't thank you darlings enough.



Cam-whoring with Gen.

This for Nam. He found this pic, I quote, 'funny and cute.'


The whole thing was wrapped up by a lil after midnight and the rest of them were going to ECP to hang. I unfortunately had to head back cos I couldn't have a hangover when there were prayers at the temple. The bells ringing and all. My head'll explode!!

AJ was sweet though to wait till my dad came cos everyone was leaving in cabs already. So while waiting, we were trigger-happy.


Mr Ajit Singh looking rather dapper in his suit.

Haha. This pic keeps making me laugh. This was taken in my dad's car on the ride to ECP. Heheheheheheheheheh!! Oh, and then there's me holding to Shahman's Mac's take-out. =)
Ahhhhh. A great night, a great start to the weekend. =D
