A nice setting indeed for a company event like an annual dinner...
However, it was a first for me to attend an annual dinner on a Thursday! Oh well, i supposed it was to coincide with my CEO, Jega's farewell bash.
The ballroom interior...
From my department...
The theme for the night was 'Colourful', hence the myriad of colours you see here.
More photos below...though very much less than what i would normally take. Could it be the fact that my
simple dress was pretty much 'colour-less' that night, so my mood was toned down as well?...hehe
..with yin and jin...
with gaik bee and li kuen...
choy phyll in her colorful traditional attire....
These 3 ladies
macam datin je...
Group departmental photo .... How big my department has grown, from just a handful of us few years back! Feel so old dy....huuhuu..
Choy Phyll (in black traditional wear) in her sporty hairdo can really fit in with the young
cikus in my department!
Now, about the dinner - food was merely so-so...
Sure it was impressive that we were each served individually for every dish, but we weren't too pleased that our waiter took his own sweet time with the food distribution. One of them even spilled sauce on my dress.!..grrrrr. There's certainly much to improve in terms of their waiters. .
Can i just add that the lighting needs some RE-lighting as well? Our poor CEO was giving out his speech in the dark! Even invited guest comedian, Douglas Lim couldn't stop cursing the lights when it also went awry on him. lol.
One of the program that night was the Long Service Award Presentation (with cash token) to reward the 'old-timers' of AXA. Don't you just love the encouraging words at the bottom of the certificate?
Finally, 3 Best Dressed awards went to the most colorful, most creative and most striking!
Here're two of the award winners that night....
Now, if only there was an award for Prom King and Prom Queen.....
The door gift i received.....adds to my collection of thermos and flasks...
The lucky draw prizes were reduced a great deal this year but a-hahhh.....i was still lucky enough to win....
...a Ogawa Mini Foot Reflexology....which i have guiltily neglected after using it once. hehe
Time to make it 'twice' now...
