Back to the 80's

In a month's time we will have our company Christmas Party. This event is usually fun with people really prepping up and coming in there 'theme inspired' outfit. Expect also several nights of preparation for the department dance competition.

Last year, the party was held at Jumbo Restaurant with Casino Royale as the theme (if I remember correctly). I was still on maternity leave then so I just visited. I came in my jeans with a glittery top and everyone else were beautiful in their evening dress.

This year, our party will be held at the Hyatt Hotel & Casino. The theme will be 80's! Ayayaya! :) There will be a chorale competition this time (ala 'Sister Act' daw). I am betting that my department will win! (Hahaha!)

I'm sure it's gonna be fun - as always. I can imagine the overflowing booze, dancing and singing all night and staff getting drunk and crazy (I'm always sober during these type of social events, pathetic?!) :)

Hmm... it's time to think what to wear!

Why I love parties

I love attending parties but more so I love organizing one. Yes, it can be stressful but I love the fact that it makes you a little bit more creative than your usual self. It makes you think of crazy things and makes you go gaga over one particular theme. Here's my recent project....

I am glad to have friends and support group who can help me execute the ideas in a cost effective manner too :)

I am officially back to being a child (at heart!). But take note, I have friends who are more OC than me when it comes to party planning. Right, Anne? ;)
