The "pastpresentfuture" Teacher's day Appreciation dinner

I have been working under Pathlight school for 6 months and Thursday marked down a memorable lane to me. My first ever dinner and dance with my colleague and the rest of ARC staffs. 
It was a happy moment because I rarely spend time with my own department due to two different campus but that night, being able to sit around the same table and watched the whole performance brought me more closer to them.


The theme for that night: Past. Present. Future. So basically, we have to dress up at our own fashion! It wasn't tough to decide on what to wear as it didn't require you to put on a glamorous outfit. Any outfit will do as long you feel comfortable about it.




For my outfit for that night, I tried to go on to my own usual style. Tops from MDS collection and the long skirt from daigou. Since I do not have the time to touch up my hair, I added on a flower pin to make me feel like im living in the 80's century. 

Not trying to compare my outfit to the rest, but my colleague were so spontaneous to rent out costume to wear for that night. Some came in Egyptian, Roman, Greek, Chinese Dynasty while other came in as fairy tales, coffee boy and retro.


Here to one of my colleague who dressed up as HAMBURGER! Hahaha, he even wore this to catch a cab and told us how the taxi driver gave that weird look on him when he board the cab (thinking that he might get rob by this weird HAMBURGER man!). He has to even explain to the driver that he is attending D&D before the driver is willing to move off.


The hotel was held at Intercontinental Hotel located at Bugis and it is one of the best voted hotel by tourist. I wouldn't disagree with that! The hotel was designed so beautifully and the bellboy was so sincere enough to greet us when we enter in.

The emcee for the night is a well-known host Richard. "Popular and highly sought after show HOST and entertainer whom has performed for audience from all over the world." I managed to find his blog on site (http://stymc.blogspot.sg/p/profile.html)
 and this is what he wrote on his blog. "As an emcee and an entertainer, the audience inspires me to do EVEN BETTER and create a show experience for them that is parallel to none. Tonight I am honoured to be your emcee, for everyone of you is a star, to the children who look up to you and the society who admire your contribution to the future generation. I hope you had a wonderful time and wishing everyone Happy Teachers' Day!"

I really love how he live up the whole atmosphere with his humorous joke, action and his multi-lingual conversation. I bet everyone enjoy his presence as much as I do.





As usual, there will be performances up next and all were choreograph by our own staffs. We even have our own BEATLES up on stage doing a live performance for us. With the "price tag" that one of the therapist sang, everyone swag their hand and moved to the beats. The secondary school teachers got all the limelight.
I was busy singing the song and thoroughly mesmerized by the voice.

And also we have the best dressed award which HAMBURGER was nominated by most of us. Unfortunately, Mr astronaut won the title. I have never doubted that! For the best dressed, Ms Egyptian went back with this title! 








Food wasn't that bad! With a 7 course meal, my tummy stopped at the 4th. More on like I tried not to eat alot to prevent showing my little bump or rather Im saving my tummy for the dessert buffet later on. As this D&D involved alot of participation, we were dragged along to join in the dance and moves that our staff choreographed. So after each workout, my appetite became smaller and in the end I don't feel like having it more. 
Dancing along YMCA song was a steal because all of us formed a train chain and started dancing around the table and sang " It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A."





The dessert booth that I am looking forward too! Stole most of the pastries out there till my plate is full of food. So we were told that they will replenish it once it is empty! So no one will leave this room with an empty tummy.

To the best of the night!

Till then.
