Friday nights

The Fri evening before last (6/6), hubby brought me to an event he got invited to - Standard Chartered Bank Rugby Dinner @ Orchard Hotel. While enjoying the novelty of appearing in some official events as Vincent's spouse, I (rather, we) wished we would have a better way of spending our Fri night. Not because more than 95% of the 600 guests were caucasians, it was mainly the subject of this event (& of course the speeches that came along) that bored us to the core.

Not that I am totally strange to rugby games... if you are a Saint, you'll know (if LL's reading this, he should get what I mean:]).. we (as far as I know many of the girls, like myself & my clique) were so into rugby because of our fellow school mates. We supported most of the inter-school matches & our archrival used to be RJ. Our rugby boys had been the target of crushes budded by many adolescent hearts in college.

Talking about this, I remember once during the physical education lesson, the teacher (he's one of those uncles in school that always get bullied or made fun of because of his appearance & behaviour) who obviously didn't spare a thought for our feelings, split us into 2 groups - the guys to play soccer & the girls...... to LEARN rugby. The big field was right in front of the canteen & the best part was.... it was during the time when many of the rugby guys gathered at the canteen! Haha.

So, that's how much I know about rugby :P

Then last Fri, another invitation was extended to Mr & Mrs Soh by the Esplanade - dinner & an Asian choreography of 3 hours by Singapore Dance Theatre. But hubby had to stay back in office to settle some urgent matters so we gave that night's program a miss.

As for tomorrow evening, we plan to have our complimentary Swiss dinner buffet at Cafe Swiss, Swissotel The Stamford. We'll see. :)
