Bedazzled!!!
02:02 | Author: DrTofu
The other day, I attended one superb event, the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus Annual Dinner 2008! It was good, and I enjoyed myself very much eventhough there's slight problem at the beginning. The event lasted from 7.00pm till 1am in the morning!

Before I begin, I would like to thank two person that makes my Annual Dinner a success. First of all, is my dad. Without him, I won't be able to attend the event on time. Secondly, I would like to thank Ee Ling, because without her, I won't even be there. Without her getting the ticket for me, haha, I guess I will be at home that day watching some boring TV programme. Thanks a lot again! =D

This year's theme is Bedazzled! The event is held at One World Hotel at Bandar Utama.



I've never been there. And to tell the truth, this place looks good! Looks grand. Haha. The ballroom we had our dinner in was huge, capable of holding up to 900 people. But I think it could hold more, only thing is they haven't maximize the number of tables.

Among the group of friends that I usually hang out with last time, during semester 1, only few of us came. And that's Ee Ling, Jun Fang, Sarah, Darrick, and me. Fong Wen came unpredicted. She only agreed to come at the last possible moment, which according to her, its 5pm that day...2hours before the event.

So at 7pm, I arrived at the place with Ee Ling. All the people are looking damn smart and nicely dressed. I'm constantly doubting my own's appearance as whether as "passable" or not at the place. To tell the truth, this is my first formal dinner. Maybe I fancy it, maybe I don't. I don't know. Love the atmosphere...hate the shirt...cause it makes me looks fat =(

Then Sarah and Jun Fang arrived at there. They actually were there quite early, but seeing nobody had arrived at the place yet, they decided to go for a walk at 1U, which is just next door. Then we met Darrick, and...some photo sessions took place before the time to go in.

The event is scheduled to start at 7.30pm, according to the pamphlet we received...but aiya...this is Malaysia lah...so, no event could start on time. Haha. This year, we have two DJs from FlyFm as our emcee. They are the famed Phat Fabes and Ben! They are seriously hilarious! They are just naturally good at cracking crazy jokes. Hahaha, without them, this event would be slightly duller. I still remember what happened when its time for dinner. Both of them just stood up there...

Phat Fabes(PF): Alright everyone, we need your fullest attention now.

Ben(B): Yes, we need absolute silence from everyone.

PF:...

B:...

PF: Its dinner time...

Me:.......................................ah...wow......

Throughout the dinner time, there are some performance by our University's Talent Quest 2008 finallists. And both performers are my personal favourite. The solo performer is Agha!!! He's an Indonesian, and, goodness, I just love his performances. Very nice!! Then the band is Flip A Coin And Call It Heads (FCCH)...darn long name...They were not bad too.


Nearing the ending of the dinner, we have Jason Lo to perform some songs for us. Though they are not my favourite band, but, I still like one or two of their songs. Like their "Operator The Line Is Dead" . I was running off to the toilet when this song was about to be played, but upon hearing the song...I ran back and decided to hold my urge for 4 more minutes...hehe


Later on, the dance floor is opened officially by some of the Annual Dinner committee. They had some sort of choreographed dance together...which happens to include Darrick inside. Hahaha, it was my first time seeing him dance. And its kinda funny seeing him dance. Hahaha! Initially some of them wanted to dance, but ah, due to song choice that is not so good, nobody went.


In the end, we all just hang back a while more and have even more photo session at the entrance of the ballroom. It was just too nice to miss it. Nobody could resist the temptation to take photos there...including me...I usually don't really like taking photos unless there's a specific reason. Hahaha.

I must say, this Annual Dinner is a success. Good job to those committees. They worked hard. And the outcome is good. I enjoyed it very much and this event will be tagged as one of the memorable event in my life. =)
