Prom Night - Royal Masquerade in Paris

First of all, I would like to announce that I got first runner up for SEGi Idol. A little bit of cheers will do! ^^ I sang "When You Believe" by Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. I know, i know. It's a big feat. But I think I did it justice. But it wasn't enough. Ah well, at least I looked good. (",)

It started of with rehersals in the morning. Usual thing. Started off late, have a bit of fun with the pole Ning brought, styling Neil's hair with Elizabeth, and mostly just talking to the rest. The outcome of our 'experiment' is this. (*Neil, because of us, you looked hot. HA!)



Anyways, rehersal carried on as usual - with addition of an impromtu script by Prema and me. And obviously, the results were total chaos. Miss Sharon was practically glaring at us. Oh my, if looks could kill... The rest went on smoothly without much hiccups - BUT there was an uncessary amount of smoke being let out every few minutes. It looks as if the performers were farting on stage. LOL!

Ah well, before the night, I got my hair sponsered by SEGi Idol - Evolution Hair Studio at Pragin. They actually curled my hair!


Along with the contacts, make-up and high heels, I've completely broken my personal rules. I'll never be caught dead with curly hair, contacts and high heels... plus, a long dress. Only for that night. It was worth it.

At 6, I arrived, handing the a mask to Von as she forgot hers. AIYAH! Lol, just joking. Then, I ran into Neil and he 'escorted' me to the dressing room. Teased him a bit just for kicks and walk back out. Michelle looked awesome as usual with her boyfriend. Yvonne looked HOT, and everyone else looked just near amazing. We dilly-dallied outside till 7.30 ish before they allowed us to enter the ballroom.

Anyways, it started with the five pairs of dancers waltzing in, in order to escort the VIPs. Then, Neil and his co-emcee went up to talk a for while. After that, Jim and Mr J.Goh went up to give the speech of the year. There were few performances from Danzity, A french duet (They were FUN!!) and Mr J.Goh very own daughter, Crystal (Her voice is awesome).

The most unfortunate thing about it was that the RM70 ticket gone to waste cause I didn't even get to sit at my table for more than 15 minutes before having to leave to escort, perform, sing, act, ... the list goes on and on. Carina did save us food but by the time we came back, GOD! The food was freezing and coagulating. Quite gross actually. Overall, it was a eventful night, getting to know each other's personality more, falling in love, night of glamour and all that junk. Haha, just kidding. It was eventful, not in the love department though.

Let's see when did I get up on stage. First was to escort Owen (looking very dashing) for his Idol performance. Well done, man. Next, was for the Ed Board launching of the notebook and bookmarks. Hmmm, then it was my performance (Damn nervous, by the way - ask anyone backstage). It was a pity no one recorded it. I really wanna know how it sounds like. Then it was Elizabeth's Prom Queen performance (no comment) and lastly, DMDS. It was a blast and I really felt like a star. Just pure bliss.


The night ended with dancing and loads of picture taking. Therefore, if anyone is interested, you can go to my facebook page to look at the pictures as my computer is damn lame and stupid - loading photos takes ages, by the way (Owen, there's your answer).

I went off at 12a.m. to join the shalom gang at McD's. The shock was seen in most of their faces when I walked in, completely with hair and make up. Haha, I must have looked funny. The night ended just right as I went to sleep and prepared for hiking and praise and worship leading the next day.
P.S.
Congrats to Ning, Michelle, and Aanand - though you did not win, you were still the best in line
Congrats to Yvonne, Prema, Carmel and Fatin - you gals were awesome on stage (carmel, thanks for all the background work)
Congrats to Owen - damn nice song you sang. Glad that I was you escort
Congrats to Neil - you were one heck of an emcee
Congrats to the winners of Prom King, SEGi Idol and Queen
Thank you, student council for a well put together show

That, my friends is SEGi Prom Night 2009! Never will its memory be replaced by anything else. =)
