15meh! (aiyah ... Chap Gor Meh lah!)

We didn’t take any photos last night…so here’s a picture of the sweet young thang that served as fodder to the pack of hungry wolves men at last night’s dinner…still cute hor?



It was all very spur of the moment…a dinner affair that was hastily put together while Jack and I chatted about our love sex lives … yes, our Jackman has a new side piece, and it ain’t me … :-(

I was looking like an Ang Pow a Stepford Wife in a RED dress … (Excuse me, it’s CNY and OK to wear Red) when Jack escorted me into RED STAR! Billy was already there. Alan aka Chatboy (really?) and Simon sauntered in gay-ly a moment later. Mr White (aka Jeff Lim Chong Kee) was there with his family and joined us briefly…Guys, if you remember, he was also there when we gathered at Kent Ridge last year…too much of a coincidence, duncha think?…could it be he’s stalking one of us? Come to think of it, he was kinda giving me the eye…(I wish…hehe)

Vin Sen couldn’t make it cause he has to conduct a sex-ed class. Fabian, David & Edward had to cancel when they suddenly remembered they had to spend Chap Gor Meh with their families … so that left the “homeless” 5 to partake in the CNY Lo Hei experience … actually, there was more Lo then Hei as we decided not to order the yusheng since some of us had it for lunch earlier. The small number lent a cosy and intimate feel to the evening, and I’m liking it cause I got to spend quality time with a bunch of my favorite guys…☺

While Chatboy prodded my piece (commented that it was very unresponsive) and exhorted me to touch his thingy … Simon dreamed about freshly caught fish steamed to perfection. The love-sick Jack played AC/DC sappy love songs in his head and longed for Xanadu (so gay!)…and Billy lamented the demise of our buffet days. True, true… these days, we are more a la carte than all-you-can-eat! Gone are the days that I can actually eat 5 Big Macs or an entire large pizza is a single sitting … (although I wonder why I’ve been looking kinda tubby lately…)

Dun ask me how, but the topic suddenly changed to FUTSAL (WTF?)…I wiki’ed it at home and found out (to my dismay) that I have apparently agreed to play some kind of “small-scale football”. (I was in Primary 3 the last time I played…but was kicked off the team for throwing the ball “like a girl”…so my football career ended before it even started … luckily …)


I am the designated Watergirl, or as Jack so subtly put it, “The Water Bitch!” … yes, I’m hopeful that I’ll get to play, and kick some balls … preferably his. So if you guys reading this are itching (to put on your very short shorts) to join our new Futsal team, please contact any of us for more details. We hope to get the balls rolling very soon … (insert eye-roll if you think this is too corny)

Beethoven for the Indus Valley

George is back at it again!

Our very own "Bono of the Classical Music" has taken humanitarian aid to another level. This time the funds raised will go to the people of Pakistan, hit by devastating floods just a few months ago.

http://myemail.constantcontact.com/Meet-Our-Beneficiary--Acumen-Fund--and-Co-Presenter--American-Pakistan-Foundation.html?soid=1104072551026&aid=gdtmSHxLcdA

So please take a look at his appeal & if you are in NY .... watch the concert! George will be conducting "Beethoven Symphony No 9 in D minor"

Cheers!

It's been months leading up to this event. The excitement & expectations culminating to this event. The turnout was not what we would have liked it to be, but the atmosphere and the camaraderie was excellent. as such, the committee would like to thank all who turned up.

The ambiance was excellent, the food to die for and the desert - simply divine! With tender ribs, lamb shank, pasta for dinner, a smooth Hoegaarden beer to help with the mood, we topped that off with desert. Namely the Cheese cake & Bernard's recommendation the molten choc fondants.

Serious planning

As you would expected it, Jack commented about the molten chocolate fondants "Now I know how a woman feels like the first time a man c@mms in her mouth!" ;-) For that, thanks Bernard, our "Host" for that evening covering the deserts.

The talk that night centered around the preservation of youth. The likes of Kay Heem and Lip Wei were at the top of the list! Still looking great, like time stood still for them in their 30s!

Towards the end of the night, the comm ended with a plea to the guys to keep their circle of friends in the loop, reach out and tell them about the 30th Anniversary in Jul/Aug 2011.

With that, we wish you all a Blessed Christmas and a Wonderful New Year in 2011!

It took us, the committee, some time to find the perfect place. The consideration of the menu, the accessibility, the price. After countless food tasting & visits .... we decided to hold it at V-Golf! You can look forward to some nice Christmas dishes, drinks & old friends.

Who? What? Where? When? How much? .... I know ....

This event is for you - the Class of ACSS 81

This time we need your help. Please register by clicking on the "Buy now" button & get your credit cards ready! As we are trying desperately to cover the cost, we'll need the payment made upfront.
