G12 Gathering!

Ok, so here here's a recap of our last week's g12 class gathering. After 6 long months, I've finally managed to get half of the class together for a little gathering. Those who were present on that day were:

Hardeep, Hui Hua, Cheryl, Winnie, Preeya, Lisa, Pei Chern, Ashwini C, Sook Cheng, Weison, Tony, & Seng Chuin.

The venue:
Nandos Mid Valley

Mrs Kalpana was also present last Saturday, it was real nice of her to drop by, as she actually had something on later on the very same night.

So by around 5.30pm, almost all of them were present, minus Tony, Weison, Sook Cheng, & Seng Chuin. We sat down at a small corner, which was...
RESERVED specially for us

...and did a lil catching up. It was real nice to meet everyone, especially after not seeing each other for such a long time. Here's the 1st class pic we took:

Oh, and in case you were wondering who the on the right was, its Lisa's bf. Here's a larger pic of the happy couple, sorry Lisa, hahaha

At around 5.50pm, these 2 guys finally showed up...
Where they both went, I have no idea, haha. Weison droved, a spanking brand new sexy black Suzuki Swift! Apparently they had to park at the Gardens as parking in Mid Valley was already full.

Once everyone was there, we managed to all gather around to take a class pic:

Winnie's head's behind mine in both pics, I'm truly sorry, haha

Here are the other photos:
Everyone was delighted to see Mrs Kalpana, I certainly was too!

You know what...?

It somehow seems like...

... Cheryl's face just keeps appearing on every photo...

RIGHT??! hahaha

Mrs Kalpana, Hardeep, Hui Hua, & Winnie left soon after, at around 6. Not long after that we decided to finally order our meals, peri-peri chicken!

Pei Chern decided to take the risk and order the special set of the day...


Before the food arrived i decided to pull out my birthday surprise plan of the day for Sook Cheng. I've managed to get this Mud Chocolate Cake from Zen before we went to Nandos, and with Cheryl's help, I've managed to smuggle it into Nandos without Sook Cheng's knowledge.

Initially, my plan was to get Sook Cheng to order the so called special desert of the day from the waiter, which would be a signal for the cake, & when the cake arrived, we would all sing a birthday song for her. But alas, the plan did not work...as usual. The manager of the place told me that the refrigerators were all full with stuff, and that the remaining ones were out of service.

So Cheryl and I had to go to one corner, manually light the candle and bring it to Sook Cheng. Well, nevertheless, it wasn't too bad. Sook Cheng did not expect it, as least that's what i hoped. But well, it was better than nothing. She seemed happy with the cake and that's worth every single bit of the effort for me. Thanks so much to Cheryl for all the help you gave, haha, doing surprises is just not my kind of thing.

We managed to get some cake on her face too

After waiting for quite a while, the waiter finally arrived with our food. Here's what i had:
Mild peri-peri chicken with 2 side dishes and a glass of bottomless iced lemon tea

But guess what Pei Chern had?! Her special set of the day turned out to be...some...hangman stick with a plate on the base and a long nail-like stick hanging from the top, scary-looking i must say, haha, i dunno how to describe it, have a look for yourself...

We sat down and continued cahtting as we ate, and how does time fly, before we know it, it was already 7.30. We decided to make a move...but there was just 1 problem...settling the bill. Apparently the person at the cashier did not want to separate the bill, so we stood around a table and started applying our superb mathematical skills. It was funny i tell you...it took us around 10 minutes to finally settle the bill, and the discussion was so intense that it just felt like one of those PBL sessions we nave in uni, haha.

Too many RM50 notes...too little change...

So with that, we bid our farewells and went back home. It was a great gathering, being able to meet up with everyone after so many months in uni. Thanks so much to all of you guys for popping by. Hopefully in time to come, i shall be able to organise another one and have all our g12s there. Do keep in touch alright? Take care and see all of you g12s in the not too distant future!
G!2!!!

O yea, before i end this entry, check this out, ...i saw this not long before i arrived at Nandos, around 4pm at the lower ground level, in front of Carrefour:
These are actually REAL LIVE people, i thought they were dummies! I saw these before in Venice, Italy, but it certainly was shocking to see Maxis using this to promote their Activ10, haha, i really wonder how much they were paid by the hour...that's if they could last there for an hour! There were actually aunties posing with these poor people. Now we have a candidate for the worst job in Malaysia. Haha, ok, take care g12!
