Sorry for being so late for posting this. I was waiting for the pictures to arrive(and BTW, they still hadn't arrive :p)
Oh well, we will make do with whatever pictures that I currently have.(Though I will update this post whenever I receive new pictures though I doubt it because those people seldom go online. O.o)
Verdict
Well..overall the Prom Night was a joy to attend. :D
The only thing I hated about it was rather personal. My father wore the shoes that I intended to wear for Prom Night to work, so I had to wear his other pairs of shoes but all of them were all too small. As a result, I got blisters on my foot after Prom Night. Pain Throughout! Ouch!
You have no idea how glad I am from the fact that the food is edible! Woots! Hahas...I was so worried that the food would just taste bad and I would go home with a overturned stomach. :p
Lastly, I had fun there. Did not really took much pictures of myself (You know I don't really like to Camwhore. :p)
All right, enough beating around the bush, it's time to draw the curtains and start the...
Still at home (Opps?)
But anyway, I'm just trying to tell you that I left home rather late that day. I left house at around 3:51PM. (and this picture what taken really really long ago but never had the oppportunity to use it. :p)
Wanted to take a picture of myself after wearing the clothes for Prom Night but the lighting during that period of time wasn't very ideal.
Waiting for the Sun to set?! (Literally)
Jaytii called to ask when I was reaching(since we were supposed to reach Compass Point by 4PM. Opps?Hey, Lai Yin told me that she was going to be late so she changed the meeting time to 4:30PM but I couldn't contact Jaytii(until just now).
Of course, by then it was too late, so I walked my way towards Compass Point (Bear in mind that I could not walk fast because of the stupid shoes. :o)
After what seemed like an eternity, I finally reached the meeting area. YES!
Bought plasters. (Though it proved to be of little help later since I got more blisters during the night. Hahas)
We waited for half an hour for Lai Yin to show herself.
We stayed another half an hour for Guan Hui to be visible. (okay, no offence intended.)
So yeah, we waited a total of 1 hour to finally set off for Singapore Flyer(the Venue of the Prom Night)
So you can't say I'm late, right? :p
Uber Chaos
Heading to the nearest MRT Station leading to the Singapore Flyer was easy but reaching to the destination is actually easier said than done.
The original(or not-so-original) plan was to take the public transport to the destination and that includes reaching there via buses.
For some reasons unknown to me, Chris decided to walk from the MRT Station to the Singapore Flyer.
Did I mention that my foot hurt? Nevermind...
I wonder why Chris never knew of our plans to board a bus to Singapore Flyer
(oh wait, maybe I know why...;)
Oh well, so begins our great and painful journey from City Hall MRT Station to Singapore Flyer...
Lesson Learnt: Never, never walk to Singapore Flyer unless you feel like running a marathon.
During our slow and tormenting walk, we passed the Esplanade. Opps, my bad. We entered it as well. Hahas!
(I feel old. =.=)
It was amazing that we reached there 10 minutes early.
Walked around with them since Ms Pey did not allow us to enter yet. (Yes, I can't believe such a thing can happen too!)
That's when I started wondering if we could board the Flyer despite having boarding it once already. But it was during the day! Johnston told me the views were rather good during the night.
Hence, I'm curious to see how nice it is. Ha!
Keller informed me that there's currently a promotion for students. Just (wonder why we need to use the word "just" since it's still not anywhere cheap but still...) $10 and we can board the Flyer!
Nevertheless, we did not go to board the Flyer(yet) because the Prom Night is starting!
And the fun begins~!...
Prom Night Part 1 (With Teachers)
More photo time! (Did I mention that we were early? :p)
Behold! The Stage! Okay, the teachers hadn't arrived yet (except Ms Pey. :o)
Notice that there are balloons everywhere??? LOL!
Our Dinner is at the sides of the Event Hall!
Isn't it amazing that just two rows of Buffet Table can make so many people full?
(okay, I was joking! The waiters would re-stock the food every time the food supply ran low on the tables. But the sad thing would be...the food's cold.)
Did you realise you could not really see the projector screen properly because of the balloons???....

From Guan Hui:
--
I wish I could show you the videos that were shown during the Prom Night(they supplied the videos in our CDs) but the school said they are retaining the copyrights. It's like.,..WHAT?! How come pictures of ourselves cannot be distributed by us? It just does not make sense. (I mean I don't recall selling the licenses of my face to the school. Hahas!)
So...sorry! No videos to see for this.
--
As time passes, more and more people arrived!
(okay, until Jaytii and the others pass me the pictures next time, I think we would move on to the 'games' that the organising committee so KINDLY organised.)
--
The 'games' we played during Prom Night
The first game was really challenging. The DJ would play six songs and we need to identify the songs. After the second song, we gave up.(Because we could not identify the first two songs. XD)The second game was just plain
We were suppose to use the first letter of our Christian name or Family Name to form a sentence: "NCHS Hooray"
=.=
You know this game is very discriminating and unplayable?
Just look at my Christian name and family name: Leroy Lim
Is 'L' needed? =.=
Praise the BRIGHT guy who suggested this game...
Nevertheless, one group(coincidentally, all boys) managed to form the sentence and the best part was..there was no prize.
=.= I guess they wasted their efforts and they had to lead the singing of the School Song. Hee...
Dinner Time!
After the games, we went for Dinner. Obviously, I'm not going to let anyone take pictures of our unglam-ness. (Not that anyone was free to take pictures anyway :D)
We had Fried Rice, Noodles, Peking Duck, Fried Prawns, Oysters, Chicken, Satays, etc
Not to mention, we had salads and Chocolate Fondues! Mmm!
Intermission
After dinner, we went aboard the Flyer! (the pictures that we took of ourselves during the trip are mostly with lai Yin I do not have many pictures since our cameras, save Lai Yin's, could not take nice pictures in the dark. O.o
That's me walking towards the Singapore Flyer. Looks cool, no?
Update: Received More pictures from Guan Hui
This picture is so blur that I almost wanted to remove it. :p
Shucks, another failed attempt.
Note: Funny, how come Guan Hui sent me photos that do not have my face? O.o
Now for some Group photos!
Prom Night Part 2(Without Teachers)
We missed the Farewell Video during the Intermission, but I had watched it when I reached home. Since I missed the opportunity to do it there, I would like to say a BIG "THANK YOU" to Ms Tan, my form Teachers!Update: Kay Wei 'dared' to upload it! So here's the video. :)
When we returned to the Event Hall, the lights were dimmed as people danced (since the teachers had left. Woots?)
Separated from Chris, Jaytii and Lai Yin and the rest of us changed tables to some where near the drink bar. Hee!
Lots of people already started 'harvesting the balloons'. Wonder why people like balloons???
Anyway, Wei Ting, Bao Lin and Cynthia also wanted balloons.
In the end, Wei Ting and Cynthia managed to get balloons. (Cynthia got one of each colour) while Bao Lin got none since she arrived late. :p
P.S: Who says being tall is good? I ended up helping them taking the balloons that were high up. LOLs...Just joking!
Some random photo when we were sitting on our new table. :p
From Left: Me, Vanessa, Angeline.
Taken by request from Yvonne. =.=
From Left: Cynthia, Me.
(My eyes went missing in the picture?!)
This was taken when we were talking. We only realise(I think, if I recall) after the photo was taken, which was of course, too late.
I had no idea when this photo was taken! Answer me, Vanessa! LOLz...
Don't look at me, Guan Hui sent me these. >=D
Our new table. So empty...
We got bored, so we were playing with the flowers.
Surprise shot. No idea how to react to this.
Isn't this picture similar to Vanessa's one?
This is like the most clear picture among her collection?
HOME
It was getting late and they had to go home.Jaytii, Chris and Lai Yin went home without us. (We were suppose to pool a cab!)
Oh well, I ended up hitching a ride on Bao Lin's Sister's Car to a bus stop near her house so that I can go home. Thanks, Bao Lin!

Hopefully by tomorrow, I would get the pictures from Johnston and I will post about AFA which I when on 21 November 2009. ;)
