EDIT: I added some lovely, lovely photos from Raf. Go visit her blog for more! I also pushed the date up 'cos I know there are lazy bums out there who don't like to scroll to the bottom :)
OK. I should be sleeping in a bid to reset my body clock; but I couldn't resist. Here are the photos which tell one heck of a story of what happened on July 20. Amazing day, that was.
So Amande, XT and Zhu came over to cook up a real storm. We made Amande's Potato Salad,and my Deep Fried Chicken, and there were the fruits and hotdogs that XT and Zhu pre-made, respectively.


And so, we were all ready to go; armed with big, metal trays filled up to the brim with delish food. Yes, I am praising our own culinary skills, ha!
No prizes for guessing what we did there. We played board games:

Card games (the usual Bridge and Dai Dee, what else. Oh, and Asshole Dai Dee, very Medieval, if you ask me):

Very proud of being a bona fide Bridge player, she is:

And, psst, we are all closet Mahjong Aunties!

I wasn't really one of them (I'm more a card person), but I heard the sounds of the tiles being 'washed' (shuffled) on the table, and some random exclamations of "Peng!", "Hu!" and whatnot. Yes, we were very noisy. Like how true blue Mahjong maestros should be.

OK so RJ's house was a mini gambling den (sans the money actually. We were playing more than gambling) But apart from that we also photowhored as USUAL:

Yes, those are polaroids. Amande brought her talking Polaroid camera which was a hoot. The resulting photos looked nostalgic, really. I'd like to develop that photo and look back on it again, 10/20 years on.

Hooray, more camwhoring.

I'm a supporter, too! And I end up looking like one of those pseudo-cute tweens. Hehe. It was meant to be a "I'm so insane my eyes refuse to look at the camera" pose. Bah.

Raf brought her humongous monster of a camera. And we all were soooo fascinated with it. Here she is teaching us how to use her fantabulous camera. It was really fun, and a lot of us took it and rushed around clicking away frenetically.

A good part of the evening was spent chilling, and catching up:


At some point of time our eyes were glued to the telly. This is my personal favourite, for some reason:

The power of the telly does not hold for long. We soon turn back to whatever it is we were doing. Mahjong, Bridge, and Dai Dee. Our class is a real winner.

The evening soon passed, and a whole lot of people made their way back. The remaining people, however, were game for a round of Twister. And twist we did, to the sounds of Earth Wind and Fire...

I was giggling away at poor Zhu's plight. I was out of the tangle by then and was happily snapping away at the poor sods. Haha!

Sister and her butt ruled the Twister mat, they did.

RJ declares some lurve for the Twister game. Of course she loved it, that perv. Heh.

OK, I don't know exactly what Elks is smiling at, but I assume it's cos she's happy about NOT being in a tangle, for once.

And here I have some really random pictures of us having fun. I'm not done with this post yet, though, cos I await some really great photos from Raf and Pam T. EDIT: First two photos from here are Raf's.
