A whole lotza Abundance.Prosperity.Longevity & Happiness
What's CNY make off? A whole lots of abundance, prosperity, longevity & Happiness. That was what i gather when i attended a CNY luncheon hosted by Singapore Post (SingPost). We were treated to a whole afternoon of gd food & fun.
I tot SingPost did an excellent job in organising such events coz everything was well planned, food was great, programmes are interesting...it practically live us with no complains.
Dresscode was Cheongsum for the ladies & Changsan for gents...i wanted to go in cheongsum too but i cant find any modernized cheongsum, it was too last minute.
we were each given a bogus cash worth $1000 to change into chips. There were 3 rooms for us to gamble but i only know how to play blackjack. So i bet my luck at a game of Blackjack...not too bad, i won alittle. I ever saw the idea of having a mini casino at an exhibition. You can actually rent all the necessary equipment from them. Great idea for D&D. Imagine having a party on board a yacht & catering a mini casino for your guest...woohoo..wat a par~tey!
Anyway, the chips we won at the tables was accumulated back at our dinning table. It was used to play the Deal or No Deal game. Top 3 tables with the highest amount of chips will go up & draw a grand prize. 1st prize was SIA voucher worth $2600. Woah! i can only drool with envy la...no body at my table bother to take out the chips & count.
Then there were the usual lucky draw dip & my manager won Tangs voucher worth $50. 1st prize was a Sony Ericsson X1 worth $1k!
feeling hungry just by looking at the menu...SingPost was really generous with their food choice,yah? Dig this...Lobster Sashimi for LO Hei!!!!
Yummylicious~
My table's theme - Abundance
Michelle Cheong was the MC for the day. She's alot smaller in size in person..i swear! just look at the size of her face & mine! Heart shape face Vs. Pancake face..get it?! She's uber approachable & friendly. She was seated at her table & when i smiled at her while passing by, guess wat? she walked over & talk to us. thank goodness she didnt do her Barbarella Posh Beckhem impersonation thingy..so Farnee!
Things from the goodie bag...
a photo frame & a limited addition mOo mOo stamp....love the oriental gift box too. And the red draw-string bag..cute! I'll use it to put my oranges next year. They must have put in alot of thoughts in choosing the gift.
the personal touch SingPost added
they took our photo & print them into stamps for us. Now i can mail my letters with my face stamp on it...gosh! Was really spellbound by the whole idea. we don't even have to que to collect it..while sitting down & enjoying our lunch comfortably, Zelcy(account manager) helped us collect & pass them to us. How personal and thoughtful is that, yah?
After the luncheon, i tot for sure we got to head back to office but my executive CEO say we don't have to...okay..obey whatever the boss say! So he drop us at Vivo City & i headed for some shopaholic action. Afterwhich, met up with my sis & mummy for more shopping at FarEast then do dinner only at 9plus.
Cheers! =)
