Mystique Mask



Our Company dinner is scheduled to take place on Friday, 13 July 2007.

The theme of the dinner is Masquerade Ball and the organising committee has requested that the staff to come in Victorian Costumes.

My colleagues and myself are very keen to DRESS UP for the dinner & dance. So today at lunch time, we went costumes shopping.

The organising committe has given us a list of names on shops that does event costumes rental. We shortlisted one - Costumes And Mascots. When we reached the shop, we were so excited to see all so many faciful dresses and also accessories.

So we started trying all the Victorian Dresses that matches the theme and it was simply so fun.

So much laughter and share of opinions when we saw each other in the different dresses. It is like we are taking our Bridal shoots or attending the Proms Night ... : )



Finally each one of us managed to get a Dress that fit and we immediately put down our deposit. After that, we had Hainanese Chicken Rice at one of the many chicken rice stalls along Purvis Street. After lunch, we had TCC coffee and desserts. What an excursion it was.

Now i am looking forward to the actual day for the Dinner & Dance in about 2 weeks time. I guess these kind of events/activities "spices" up the routine and it adds excitement to the daily mundane work. Hopefully i can win a Nice LUCKY DRAW Prize...祝我好运 !!
