International High Table (6 Mar 08)

Attended the International High Table organised by Butler Court. The idea was to bring food from our own native country (sorta like a pot-luck session) Anw we cracked our heads as to wat to come up with, and finally decided to go with pineapple rice, pineapple tarts and bak kut teh! (very pineapple theme...lol...)

Pineapple tarts from me.....looks like i deprived Huiyian of her pineapple tarts....muhahaha

Pineapple rice from Hazel and Wanping

Bak Kut Teh from Yi Si

Our very own buffet here

Custard by the HK girls

Chicken hor fun

Jared, me , Hazel and See Hwei giving the thumbs up to the food....look at my empty pineapple tart bottle.....lolol

A little bit of table soccer with the HK girls, with Yi Si and Jinyang vs Michelle and Catherine. The girls won...btw....and they were so ecstatic abt it!



While See Hwei, myself and Kinya were chatting away.......

Yi Si decided to take some unglam and random shots of us...ok more of Wanping actually...hahaha....tt expression is priceless!

We returned the favour by making them our camera models!







Group photo together

A very enjoyable evening on the whole. Most coincidental thing was tt even though the event was organised for the whole of Butler, somehow only those from Block F (our block!!) turned up. Anw we got to know our neighbours (the HK girls) a bit better, as well as got to interact with the warden in charge.
