Matt's rugby club organized a Summer Ball for players, social members, their WAGs (wives and girlfriends) and their friends..... very generous.
Since many companies in Singapore are cutting down on cost and not doing many parties like D&D, it was a nice change for many of us. We got to dress up, get loose and dance. The theme was the Wanderer's color, 'black, white with a splash of red'.
It was actually the first formal event, organized by the club for the club. They invited founder of Wanderers (it was founded in 1995) and Sponsors, awarded players by categories, for the year of 2008/9's games.
Matt aka "DJ Dumpling" did the music. He enjoys this as you can see. Although he is a bit annoyed when people take over the laptop or tells him what to play... and it means we had to stay until the end, sober... But he still volunteers everytime... anyway...
Yay! They came to visit us for the weekend! Arrived on Saturday, we went to dinner at Robertson Walk "Red House" for Chilli Crab with Daichan's business partner Jeffery and his family. I invited Masano-san and Toshiko-san who brought Lynn-chan!She is so chubby and quiet and soooo adorable! Everybody wanted to hold her!
(except, I asked Matt to hold her here.)
On Sunday, we went to see the "Ballet under the Stars" at the Fort Canning Park. The usual gang plus the visitors (like Emi & Daichan) was there. Again, plenty of food and drinks and good vibe.
Ballet was good too.It was divided into two section, the classic and the pop. Classic ballet was beautiful (reminded me how I was mesmerized by ballet when I was a little girl), and the Pop was cool, with funky music. The Indian group next to us was clapping their hands to the music "Kiss" by Tom Jones, which was funny. No shame in the name of fun.
That night after we came back home, Daichan surprised Emi by reminding her their wedding anniversary which they had no time to celebrate 2 days ago. They opened a small bottle of Moet at the balcony, which I think was so sweet. They are the most loving couple I've ever known.
My colleague Ernest, finally tied a knot with his beautiful girlfriend Airish.
Ernest normally sits next to me at work and I hear him organize for the wedding, deal with Airish's family, or some times argue with her on the phone, on small matters, like passionate couples.... often I give him my advise to chill and relax. I know I am not the best consultant but I feel I am old and wise compared to these two young and emotional love birds.
They had a simple and nice ceremony and party at Villa Bali in Singapore. And in December, they will have a massive church and reception party in the Philippines.
I am sure Ernest and Airish will be happy together and build a cute funky family!
