one, two, cha cha cha



Crystal's dance exhibition was fun!
We left the city at around 12pm...caught a ride in a maxi-cab with esther, crystal, and crystal's friend jacklyn and her parents. The place we went to was quite far away from the city in this suburb called forest hills...its about 40mins drive. The actual ballroom itself is right smack in the middle of a housing estate, which is kinda weird...but its a very beautiful location. I can imagine the place being used for small weddings. It only seats about 100-150 ppl, so much less than the void deck weddings in spore *cough cough*.

The event had only just started when we got there, but crystal n jacklyn's first performances werent till about an hour after the start, so we were making good time. I was quite skeptical at first as to whether i'd enjoy watching ppl dance for hours, and i joked with crystal that i would bring my PSP with me...but i must say its very interesting to watch the pros dance! especially the HOT latin dances with the shart movements and questionable groping. (okay..im exaggerating)

We had a lunch break at around 3.30pm. (everyone else had pasta, but i had the vege meal which was just soup!! do they think vegetarians eat less or something???) anyways, as a result, i was really really hungry by dinner time, which was at about 8pm. dinner did not disappoint! it was a buffet. and it had oysters!!! (bennett! r u jealous?? i had FREE oysters!! hahaha)

Oh i must mention one thing. There was this slightly dodgy guy sitting at our table next to esther. He behaved a bit like a perv and constantly "touching" everybody. There was one instance where he (already quite drunk) grabbed esther's arm and pretended to nibble it cos he said he couldnt wait for dinner. I was sooooooooo pissed off, but i didnt wanna make a scene, so i just clenched my fists beneath the table and tried not to lose my cool. Luckily he didnt do it again or i think i might have seriously hit him. arrrggghh...wat a dickhead. Later on he got REALLY wasted and began shouting profanities....then he left (thank god), and the rest of the evening was peaceful.

Esther, jacklyn, her parents and myself caught a cab back to the city at ard 11pm. crystal stayed on the party with he dance mates. All in all, it was a really wonderful evening. Thanks crystal! I'll be there for your march showcase! (am i invited? haha)
