it's one month plus after the Chingay performance, and as promised, to thank for all the hardworks and effort we put in for the past 4 months, PAYM organised this Appreciation Night for all participants of PAYM Chingay and City Alive!
finally, a night for the chairperson and all the choreographers, dancers and participants to party together the whole night. we accessed the Sentosa Boardwalk and walked to the Azzura Beach Club at Siloso Beach.
At the Sentosa Boardwalk
cute eh?
signboard directing us the way
we found Azzura Beach Club finally, and the queue was seriously long when we reached. it was 6pm, and yet they haven't opened the door for entry. it was more than half an hour of waiting, when they finally allowed us to go in.
we have to show them the e-mail they sent to us as a proof because this party is only opened for invited guests. they also checked our IC for our age, below 18 will be given a pink wrist-tag, and above 18 will be given blue wrist-tag. underages were not allowed to order alcoholic drinks xD. hahaha
the entrance
our IC and the invited emails xD
cheers!~
good bye long queue, we're going in xD
lol. after almost an hour of queueing, we finally stepped inside the Azzura Beach Club. it's actually linked to Siloso Beach, just that our turf was surrounded with barrier, so that outside people were unable to sneak in and kpo-kpo join us. haha. today was strictly for invited guests only xD
i was actually more into the wide spread of buffet foods provided there. i am very hungry because i came with an empty stomach :D obviously since they indicated in the email that there's a lot of foods provided, i should not waste it, came with an empty stomach is the best way to show my support to the foods out there =D
looks nice eh!
signboard for tonight
PAYM
blue wrist-tag to show that we are above 18,
and not forgetting, our finger lights xD
beautiful sunset at Sentosa
the quality and quantity of foods they catered for all of us xD
sinful yet delicious :)
take as many as i want xD
our foods
with drinks
after dinner, we went around looking for familiar faces, looking for friends who we have made during the past 4 months, time to catch up and of course, to take pictures! after today's big gathering, i don't know when is the next time we can meet up with one another.
looked like today is really the last time we, the PAYM participants, get together as a whole.
sky slowly turning dark
Happy 40th Birthday, PAYM
me and Ginnette
friends spotted. like so hard to find them, especially when there's so many people crowded together at one place. so once we spotted our friends, immediately rushed over to take pictures with them =D
Daniel, Ginnette, Amirul, me and Charmaine

the choreographers and dancers
Melvin, Marcus, Benjamin, Jun Wei and Jin Wen (oh! where's Freddie? =/)
with them...
and soon, it's PARTY time. while waiting for the guest-of-honour to come, we just repeatedly dance our Chingay dance, music just kept playing and we can dance till we drop. lol.
after the arrival of the guest-of-honour, it's performance time. some dancers formed up their own team and volunteered to put up performance for us. first team up was our friends, Amirul's and his teammates, performance. love their team the most xD i support and root for their group
people getting ready to dance.
first team performance
GO! GO! GO!
and followed by other team..
and next, it's video time, reminiscing the past 4 months that all of us spent together. we worked, we played, we practiced, we trained, we rehearsed, we stressed, we sweat and we danced together. 4 months of hardwork, just for that 2 days of performances.
2,000 youths, 80 young community leaders, 45 training sessions, 454 hours, 1 PAYM
we went to order our free flow of drinks. didn't really wanted to take any alcoholic drinks although we have already reached the eligible age. nah, not today. i don't wanna get drunk and walked home floating lol. cranberry drink for me will do xD
bartender to serve us =D
and yeah, we managed to find more and more of our friends there. nice to see them once again. it has been a month since we last met with each other. we saw Benjamin, but sadly Jia Yun wasn't here today.
with Benjamin
with Aaron, he needs to bend until so awkward to accommodate with our pathetic height
might as well, we stand on a platform to accommodate his height instead xD
with Benjamin and Kenneth
playing with kissy mouth, and of course to outshine ourselves with our coloured contact lens
twin terror 4eva
and then, there was a PK dance match between the guys and the girls. obviously, i found that guys can dance more awesome than girls. haha.
the PK Match
someone putting up yo-yo performances
and now, a bigger version of yo-yo. ( i don't know what is that call?)
and now a fire performance
nice eh?!
Guest of honour, Mr Yam Ah Mee making his speech..
followed by Kenneth, PAYM Chairperson =D
and lastly, before we left the place for home, we took one last picture with all the choreographers and dancers. looked like this would be our last time taking picture with all of them, a pity Freddie wasn't here today =(
and all of us were each given a goodie bag from PAYM. greatly appreciated for the dinner, party and there's still goodie bag for us xD
with the choreographers and dancers
Goodbye Azzura Night Club
goodie bag with Chingay tee shirt, headphone and some vouchers inside.
trying out our headphone to act cool
on board the Sentosa Express, back to Vivo City
See You Again...
Will be back, soon =D
looks like the PAYM Appreciation Night today really marked everything to a perfect zero. Goodbye Chingay 2011, hopefully there's still PAYM Chingay 2012 xD
