Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder-

I guess it's about time I posted about the Pacer Ball. It was a church event to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the existence of Pacers. Wow...five years...I can still remember the first few Pacers...all five of them.

So, to celebrate the momentous occasion, they decided to organise this ball. You know, the Cinderalla type. Wait, no. Haha! Not that kind of ball when all the bachelorettes in town trying to impress the prince.

Like all balls, it was a social event. So that was nice. Besides, we all get to dress up!

That's Kat, Eleni and myself.

Before dinner, there this time of 'mingling'. Basically, as people come in we are to go around to meet new people. It was funny because when we - our gang- always ended up together.

"Hey, meet anyone interesting?"
"Nah, not really."
"Oh, look. There's so and so."
"My, he looks great!"
"So have you watched MI 3 yet?"

And so on. Then someone says, "Um, Aren't we supposed to mingle?"

Then the same thing happens. After a while, we gave up and stuck together. Hehe...

Oh, the girls, I mean ladies, were given corsages when we walked in. Nice.

This is my view from me table. Sorry about the poor quality.

The food was good. I wasn't planning on taking pictures of the food, but now I wish I had. *smacks forehead* Anyway, there were four courses. I'm no food critic, but I say it was good.

There was an interesting plan about the dinner. The seating was guy girl guy girl. After every course the men are to switch to another table. The new table was by their choice. New table, new people.

But the men missed the first chance. Pastor was enjoying the company at his table so much that he forgot to announce the switch.

During the switching, there was some speculation. "Oh look, there he goes. I knew he was going to chose that table!" "I wonder where's he going." "Whoops, I think he's lost."

Anyway, there was dancing after a talk from Pastor. No, not that kind. More like line dancing. First was a traditional Victorian...sort of dance. Then a swing style. And I'm not sure what kind was the last one. Haha!

Everyone went a little crazy at the photo taking. When are we going to dress up again anyway?

Group picture.

Haha!

Uh...Randomness...
