D&D...cheena-fied

This year's D&D was the first (and perhaps last) time I've ever worn a cheongsam. Reason being, our theme for this year was an Asian cultural theme and all of us were supposed to dress accordingly.

I really wanted to wear an ao dai, but ended up wearing a cheongsam instead. I tried the kebaya too, but that was too common and I thought that many people were going to turn up in it. At the end of the day, no one did! Argh! I should have worn the red kebaya because it looked quite ok on me and it was cheaper too! Damn.
So I ended up wearing a blue and gold cheongsam, which made me look very much like a waitress at a Chinese restaurant:

Full body shot


Was selected as one of the "best dressed" for the night, and ended up winning the consolation prize AFTER having to perform on-stage. Urgh.


Feeling very awkward indeed


The three Karen's of the company - Lim, Chien and Khoo

I received a $200 Takashimaya voucher and other prizes from games. I wasn't lucky enough to be called up during the bonus draw though. :( But the voucher is great, because I'm going to use them for Christmas presents, just like the previous year! Ha!

After that, I changed out of my cheena attire and back to my REAL self:

It was Fey's farewell party at Winebar and I went to join Bunny and the rest after my D&D.


Teri & me



It was such a chaotic night. Tsk. And it didn't really end well.
