SFC Dinner

After Tambunan Run, I attended our SFC dinner at Dewan Hakka, Likas. I carpooled with Mildred and Fiona.

We had to go early because of parking.

Small Reunion for ex-Inpens at Sate Mesra, City Mall

On the 30th September, we had a small gathering organized by Mr. Saharom Salim at Sate Mesra, City Mall. We arrived late. Anyhow, I didn't manage to join them upstairs as I was busy handling my kids. Managed to catch up with them when the guys had their ciggy break. It was a nice gathering but the Ramadhan buffet offered by Sate Mesra was a TURN OFF. I will not recommend anyone to go to this place. Why?
  1. Firstly, the service was really bad (though they charge 10% Service Charge).
  2. The buffet spread was lousy.
  3. Unbelievably chicken sate was out.
  4. The staircase leading to the upper floor is slippery (one of the staff had a fall during our dinner).
  5. The toilet was dirty.
  6. The cashier took donkey years to calculate your bill (I tot they were using abacus but no).
  7. Bill upfront (before your order comes, they have already billed you)
  8. One of the menu in Ramadhan buffet was laksa Sarawak, I waited for them to refill the condiments but after 45 minutes still none. I gave up waiting!
And in general, NO SATISFACTION! Not even a burp. And I agree with Shemah and meatball that the pricing is ridiculously expensive. And I totally agree 100% to what Yone wrote on her blog (you should read it in details just in case you intend to go to Sate Mesra).

Location: Sate Mesra, Lot S-0-3/S-1-3, Block A, City Mall, Kota Kinabalu
Review: Negative (not even 1)
Standing: A-ai, Zeebah, me and Shayna, Trudy Lai, Christine & Muneez
Seated: Yusrih's wife & Rashdan's wife

St Francis Convent Class of 93 REUNION

Yesterday, I attended the reunion held at the Mediterranean Bar & Restaurant, Tg. Aru. Although I am not a full pledged SFC (I did my upper forms in SBPS), I attended the reunion anyway just to see my old friends from my former school. I arrived a bit late (the event starts at 1pm). At the registration, I met Aloysia Sang (still the same Aloy!), Imelda Latiff, Ratnawati (the soon to be Missus and still gorgeous), Dr. Flora Chong (she works as a doctor in Sarawak), Dr. Pamela Yong (a dentist and just opened SMILE Orthodontics located along Jalan Lido - Kepayan) and Melody Goh (the same ol’ gal).



Items on display. Can't believe that our fellow schoolmate still keep them in good condition. Kudos to Melody Goh! Doiii tu nametag bah...tapi paling teruk lower secondary lah...KUNING!




BOEING!
BOEING! BOEING! BOEING! BOEING! BOEING!

The Meditarranean Bar & Restaurant, First Beach, Tanjung Aru

As I entered the Meditarranean Restaurant, I saw may familiar faces (all actually). Everyone was busy updating each other. While looking for Mildred Sikayun and Fiona Chuan, I bumped into Chesity Boon Mei Mei (whom by the way still the same Chesity). She supplied the sound system.

Chesity Boon Mei Mei & Jocelyn Lee

I sat with Mildred (married with one kid), Fiona (married with one kid) and Jocelyn Lee (whom by the way kurus even though she has 2 sons).

The event started with Deborah Suzanne Disimon (married with one kid) and Chesity Boon made the introduction. Then, speeches by Christine Fletcher (still kurus) and Michelle Ann Iking (gorgeous as usual).

Aloy did a multimedia presentation on LCD. It was really nice to see old pictures (muka-muka woros). We had a good laugh to see our dulu-dulu punya gambar. Oh ya, throughout the event background music mostly from the 90’s (thanks to Chesity!). Keluar lagu2 like “A Shoulder to Cry On by Tommy Page”, “I Wanna Sex You Up”, “Pump Up the Jam” and loads more. After the multimedia presentation, then of course makan time.

Then after makan, we played some games namely Guess Who? (write the full name of each picture) and our team won (Liza is a fast writer). We got the SFC T-Shirt each.


The frontal of the T-shirt

Then a game on our knowledge on movies during the 90’s, name that tune (the DJ will play songs of the 90’s and we have to jot down) and also each person were given the opportunity to nominate “Who changed the least” (won by Aloysia) and “Who you expect turned out to be what you have expected” (won by Chesity).

After that, we sang the school song. Both in English and Malay! And surprisingly, I could still remember most of the lyrics and so could many of us. The 6kg cake (in the shape of SFC badge) was cut by Aloysia.

All sang the school song

6kg cake in the shape of SFC badge..yummy..


Aloy has the honour of cutting the cake

After that, Melinda J. Bagiu sang a song (sorry can’t remember the title) and she still has her Bakat Interact winning voice! I also met Dr. Judy Siambun (who works at Kota Marudu hospital), Adeline Hendry (residing in Canada and she is due anytime – 2nd baby), Emily Amandus (works in Hyatt), Esther Majawat, Diana Mogindol, Lesley Shawna, Tayana Murugasu (residing in UK), Christine Anthony (just became a mummy in June), Jocelyn Basilius (ever kurus), Josephine Chai (works in STPC as Marketing Manager), Velerie Siambun (masih cute maciam dulu), Hana a.k.a Hubbs (begitu juga ndak pandai besar2), Shanty Toisam (you rock girl!), Faridah Jabul (iri om iri), Kitty Ku (who owns a saloon in Tg. Aru Plaza) and Kareen Lim. I left about 5.45pm. It was a great event.
