Reunion Dinner Wrap Up

posted under by greynut  
Alas, it's the last post on reunion dinner held 2 weeks ago. All photographs that was taken by me which passed my self-imposed inspection and have been photochopped edited to the best I can, can be found here.

Enough talk there. I saved the bests for the last. Enjoy :-)


The two on the left are great story tellers.




Say hi to Wen Yi.




The four scouts. The King Scout is the one in blue, Jason.






Cheese!




Ladies of the night...




The guys were not to be outdone...




Only one third who attended were in this photo.




Dinesh with his right arm raised high, probably cheering for the match shown on the TV.




Best photo of the night! Could've made it look like a magazine cover if I know how. :-P




Group photo at the end.



Front row, L-R : Wai Yew, Wee Keng, Pn. Kwan, Ms. Chang, Mr. Ho and Mr. Leong

Middle row, L-R : Shi Wei, Kar Chun, Shin En, Pui Yee, Weng Khong, Wye Hon, Wei Shin, Yin Teng, Wen Yi, Adrian

Back row, L-R : Sook Shan, Deenie, Jason, Wai Kit, Kah Meng, Edmund, Hou Zzan, Chong Yi, Chun Ho and Dinesh



Candid version :-)


What is a reunion dinner without the latest news on everyone? So here's the latest (3 weeks ago, LOL) information on everybody, in order of the position in the normal group photo.


Front row : Wai Yew is already in UKM, while Wee Keng is in UM. And the teachers, well, they are at where they were, not going anywhere. Wye Hon secured a place in UGM (Indonesia). Yin Teng will enrol in University of Nottingham (M'sia). Wen Yi is already in UPM. Adrian on the other hand is in Sunway college.


Middle row : Shi Wei is in UniMAS whereas Kar Chun is in UTM. Shin En enrolled in Uniten. Pui Yee is in UMS. Kah Meng is in UTM with Kar Chun too. Weng Khong, well, he is preparing to go to Europe (read : JPA scholar).


Back row : Sook Shan is in UPM as well. Jason chose Uniten to be near her wife, Deenie, although Deenie is not in Uniten, just somewhere near. Sorry, no accurate detail on this. I will amend once I know. Wai Kit is in UMS also. Edmund got into UKM whereas Hou Zzan, he either accepted the offer from UTHM or he chose Uniten in the end. He was still undecided that night. Wei Shin has already been in UTP (note : Petronas scholar). Chong Yi is in the same boat as Weng Khong. Chun Ho is in UniMAS too. And finally, Dinesh, who is in UPM.


So, that's all for the reunion this time. Just a simple gathering organized at the eleventh hour. Thankfully, the response was not as lukewarm as dreaded. I will see to it that another reunion be organized in the near future. I shall take the chance to bid everyone farewell and the best of luck. Kick asses in your new places alright?


Stay tuned for the next entry as I revert my mode back to wacko and get my crazymotor running in my brain once again : Division by zero, not as simple as an error that you know. Adieu, graynut signing off.



Reunion Dinner Part 4

posted under by greynut  
This series is getting really boring. So, I've decided to wrap it up with the next post instead of continuing it for another four entries with photographs accompanied by witty comments which I am seriously running out of. The remaining photographs will be stored here, along with those that I've posted before this.

Here goes.


The loaded Fortune Deity giving out moolah while shaking hands with recipients a la VIP.




No, this photo was not smeared. It was the steam rising out of the pot.





Somehow this shot reminds me of those couples shot. Okay, that was so wrong.



Wen Yi and Dinesh in discussion. Dinesh was the only non-Chinese to join us. I am not being racist here. Rather, I was disappointed that he was the only non-Chinese there.




You can see Adrian showing er, whatever sign that means.




Mr. Ho helping himself to those fresh crustaceans while Mr. Leong looked on.




Shin En caught unaware.




The guys were having a great time exchanging news among each other. Don't forget about the bullshitting part too when Chun Ho was in the photo. Trust him to blow your logic away with his mind numbling stories with the occasion help from Wye Hon.


There was one incident during the dinner that warrants a special mention here. First, have a look at the incident.



Unfortunately, this is not a guess-what-is-that game. This is the clearest shot I could get of that incident.



Just in case you still can't figure out what's that, those are oysters. In a cup of Chinese tea. How did those oysters get into the tea? I'll leave it to your imagination. It was totally unintended though.

Stay tuned for the last part. Adieu, graynut signing off.



Reunion Dinner Part 3

posted under by greynut  
This is part 3 of the 8 parts series on reunion dinner. Don't you think this is getting boring?


Everyone helping themselves to those delicious food.




Jason and his girlfriend/wife Deenie.




The teachers were not to be left behind in eating too :-D




Wei Shin and Weng Khong posing, while Adrian was busy messaging.




Wei Shin and Weng Khong, again :-P



"v" for v, Edmund and Kah Meng.




No, Wai Yew was not looking sideway at the camera. In fact, his eyes were fixed at the steamboat. Drools...



The surprise Santa/Fortune Diety, Ms. Chang, handling red packets with the most powerful charm in the world, moolah.





Yin Teng receiving her charm.



Santa/Fortune Diety doing her round, giving everyone a packet.


That's all for the time being. I'm back to more editing.



Stay tuned. Adieu, graynut signing off.

Reunion Dinner Part 2

posted under by greynut  
This is the 2nd entry on the previous reunion dinner. The first post can be found here.

As the clock ticked away, more and more arrived. I was really glad that so many people turned up in spite of the short notice. However, we were really had a lot of empty seats until the very last minute. In the end, the number that turned up was nearing 30, way beyond my expectation. You can say that I have low expectation or whatsoever, but then again you don't really know what kind of responses I got from some of those that I've invited.

'Nuff with the boring details, and feast your eyes upon these sub par photographs.


Wai Kit chattering away with Pn. Kwan before dinner began.




The guys were doing the same across the tables.




Chun Ho and Hou Zzan, with hint of excitement in their eyes, though you can't see Chun Ho's from this angle.




Wai Kit indulging himself in university entrance guide.




Pn. Kwan and Mr. Leong. They are this friendly all the time mind you, not just in front of the camera.




Wye Hon, it was hard to get a good shot on you despite all your previous efforts until now. Really.



Wai Kit may seems reluctant being alone in front of the camera, but it's different when he's with others.




Yin Teng with, er, some meat (?) between her chopsticks. Abymsal focus, this one, yes.





The two Koks, Adrian Kok and Kok Wee Keng. Close buddies since young.



Everybody was busy sinking their teeth into something.




These guys prefer a la carte, and so they have to wait while those eating steamboat feasted non-stop. Chun Ho was peering over his university entrance guide, while Hou Zzan tried to catch a look.


So, that's the end of this entry. It is not even half way yet.


Stay tuned. Adieu, graynut signing off.

Reunion Dinner

posted under by greynut  

Class 6AB ACS Ipoh of 2007 threw a reunion dinner on last Sunday. More information below.




Venue : Moven Peak Steamboat Buffet
Time : 7pm
Date : 22nd June 2008
Dresscode : Smart Casual


Anyway, the dinner was not restricted to students from that class. We had people from other classes as well. Heck, we even had people who were no longer ACSians since Form 5 in 2005.



Less words, more photographs. I think I'll need about 8 entries to cover the whole thing, 10 photo at a time.
Dial-up friendly, eh? Anyway, for those who want the original version of the photographs, please inform me. I'll upload them to you once I have true broadband unlike pseudo broadband that I am using now.



From front : Yin Teng, Edmund, Pui Yee and Chong Yi (hidden)


Ms. Chang, Kar Chun, Shi Wei, Wee Keng and I were first to arrive. It was already 7 by then. It seemed like MRT (Malaysian Rubber Time) was in effect again. Oh bother. Punctuality was not emphasized this time. Attendance was.



From right : Wee Keng, Ms. Chang and Mr. Leong


So, we while away waiting for the rest to arrive. Yin Teng showed up in a short while. Glad she did, because she mentioned that she might not make it in time from KL. Mr. Leong, Kah Meng, Edmund, Pui Yee and Chong Yi arrived soon after that.



From front : Edmund, Kah Meng (hidden), Pui Yee, Chong Yi (hidden) and also Moven Peak service crew :-P



From front: Edmund, Yin Teng, Kar Chun and Shi Wei



From left: Pn. Kwan, Mr. Leong, and Ms. Chang


Pn. Kwan too arrived soon after. By then we already have 3 teachers with us, with Mr. Ho on his way.




From left: Ms. Chang, Wee Keng, and Chong Yi



Sitting from left : Edmund, Kah Meng and Pui Yee
Standing from left : Kar Chun and Shi Wei


From left : Do I need to repeat myself? :-D




Standing from left: Hou Zzan, Kar Chun, Shi Wei, Jason and Deenie
Sitting from left: Edmund, Kah Meng, Pui Yee and Wai Yew

7.30pm, and there were still missing faces.



I think I have repeated names enough. Perhaps one or two were not in the photographs before. Far left, donned in orange , Adrian, while on the far right, donned in beigi, Chun Ho.


So, what happened after that? Would more turn up? Or would the dinner come short of expectation?


Stay tuned. Adieu, graynut signing off.
