Starry starry ball '08

Ursies ball was held last Friday at DeVine, Kamberra Winery. I have absolutely no idea why Canberra is spelt as Kamberra. Maybe, they want to try act cute or input humour?
Anyhow, the venue this year was much better compared to last year, which was held in a race track. The food was also better than last year, albeit a little small in the quantity.
I wore the dress that I bought for the ball last year. I didn't wear that dress last year, so I thought I'll use it this year. =)


that's a cigar I'm holding. The guys bought it for the ball and I borrowed it to take a picture! wahaha.


With chia yuen and dianne when we were waiting for the buses to pick us up.


that's lawrence with his cigar in his mouth. I kinda like the effect of this photo.


daryl and don on the bus.

Upon reaching the DeVine, it was a photo taking frenzy. Everybody wanted to take pictures with everybody. And all are dressed to kill. The girls looking beautiful with their hair and makeup done to perfection and guys looking impressive in their suits. It was a night where everyone looked their best. =)
I too, can't miss out on the phototaking! Swipe out my camera and proceed to snap snap snap. But admist these photo taking, I didn't forget to treat myself to the delicious canapes. I think I must have been too busy eating them that i forgot to take pictures of them. haha.
As it was at a winery, the wines and champagne were pretty good.




eugenie looking sweet that night.


ada, as usual, looks stunning. =)


2 new korean girls, michelle and tracy.


she's wearing a cheong sum! nice.


lawrence, jayshen and jared.
Jayshen came all the way from Sydney to join in the ball.






hannah and gemma. Both look pretty that day.



caitlin and jess.

Without the both of them, there wouldn't be an Ursies ball. 3 cheers to caithlin and jess!
There was also a ursies video made which is better than previous year. The plot and humour were stronger too. I like it.


with hannah.


that's our table photo.
Thanks don and leonard. You guys were so nice! =)


with the gorgeous babes. laura, amanda and sam.
Amanda's dress was like literally bare back. SEXY!!!


with martha. i love her dolly hair and vintage like dress.





don't you think she looks abit like scarlett johansson?

Oh and here's the food! The picture is taken by Jared! His camera behaves between an SLR and a lousy digital camera. There are times when the camera churns out SLR like photo like the one below, but there are times when the camera takes awfully shaky pictures with lots of noise. haha!

Jared's SLR like photo of the food.


so eager to see the camera even when I have a mouth full of food. haha.


chern!


hannah and clare. Oh, and they're both koreans. Koreans are pretty pretty.
We have an korean influx this year. I think the guys must be pretty happy.


And the guys went out to smoke their cigar while the girls enjoy the desserts inside.





While the guys were having a puff,

the girls were having fun dancing inside! Chia yuen spinning dianne around. =)


tango with derrig.




I like this picture though I look like a retard.
And look at what Jared is doing to lawrence! haha!
Now we all know your inclinations jared.




one mini group photo!

I'm still waiting for all the professional shots to come. The ball was quite fun but I guess company last year was better cuz more people went last year.
And I came back so hungry, I had to cook indomee(which is awesome) to satisfy my growling stomach.

I'm having a floor dinner tomorrow! yay to good food! And cuz its a semi formal dinner, the chefs are forced to whip out some food for human tasting. I have been eating shit food the past few days. Sandwich for lunch and dinner cuz the kitchen ran out of food by the time I went. They should have like more food for us what. At the rent of 273.50 per week, and it is in AUD, I think residents here deserve much better. Both food and attitude from the kitchen hand(Linda and Barbara) at that.
