Fly FM Pagi Show Lion Dance 2010

Aaarrrgghhh… I totally messed up this time… I only took shots of the food that was served & the awesome memorabilia that was presented to us for the Pagi Show Lion Dance… If you have no clue as to what I’m talking about, I suggest you checkout this post.

So this year, we attended 5 locations…

Day 1 – Charmaine’s Home & Office Location @ Glomac

Since I forgot to take shots of the performance or the lion for that matter, I shall talk about the AWESOME BUFFET spread Charmaine’s family got for us! It was AMAZING! Apparently, it was cooked by her uncle who does it as a hobby… now that’s one hobby I have never heard of…

Check it out…

Knowing that Fabes & I were on a specific diet, they were so kind… got us a whole tray of HEALTHY food! The vegetables were braised with possibly thick & brown oyster sauce – served on top of banana leaves to bring up the smell of clorophyl… VERY NICE!

Then it was MEAT TIME! A variety of cocktail sausages, star-cut nuggets and wrinkly… something…

Then the ever wonderous CHICKEN BOXING!

and more! chicken cooked with thick broth – thickened through coconut cream…

Then the meehoon… garnished with some green stuff – I think it’s spring onions…

Ahhh.. Charmaine, her family, cousins and her two uncles who got the buffet spread going (far left)

THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Day 2 – Symantec’s office @ Damansara Uptown 2 & another office location @ Mutiara Bangsar

Again, these people @ Symantec were SOOOOO NICE! Apart from the VERY ‘NICE’ Ang Pau (thank you thank you thank you), they got us yet another buffet spread!

How about specially ordered roast lamb accompanied with lamb juice & mint?

They had looooooaaaaaaaddddsss more food but the highlight for me was Brenda’s cake! She baked this very awesome Oreo Cheese Cake all the way through the wee hours of the morning! She got home at 9pm the night before and because of her VERY KIND HEART and SOUL, she decided to bake… and wrapped up at 2am! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Me savouring the VERY LOVELY CAKE – forget the diet – CAKE I MUST EAT!

Day 3 – Taylor’s College, Sri Hartamas
This was special, not only did the Student Council got everything hooked up including setting up a stage, getting posters drawn up and giving us a HUUUUGGGEEE welcome… these guys were amazing, at the end of the performance, we were taken for a mini tour around the campus ended at the student council office where we were presented this!

Wow! Fabes, Nadia and I were completely speechless! Every class made customized Chinese New Year greeting card, thanking us for the lion dance performance… and the saying is true, some things ARE more precious than money… THIS WAS WORTH A LOT to us. THANK YOU SO MUCH… Taylor’s College, Sri Hartamas – YOU ROCK!

It’s not the end…
Well, knowing that Taylor’s College was our last stop for the Pagi Show Lion Dance 2010 escapade, it was a little sad, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to play with Loo Loo no more (a name fabes gave to the lion head we were handling) and not getting to perform… BUT deep inside I knew… 2011 will come, Chinese New Year will be here again and WE WILL BE OUT ONCE MORE!

I’ll do it ANYTIME… it was very very tiring BUT a GREAT experience AND for all who sent in your entries for the Lion Dance and didn’t get picked, don’t worry, there’s next year and it’ll be BIGGER, BETTER and more AWESOME! Kong Xi Fa Chai!
