By 7pm on this day, I will be accompanying hubby to a dinner function.
I am so nervous now as it has been some time since I attended a dinner function (other than those held by my previous companies). My last formal dinner function was in December 2008 when I was still at my previous company, and I was about 6 mths pregnant with Ben... and I don't have to worry about getting costumes (they are kinda lenient towards pregnant women I guess...)
I don't do well in socialising... seriously...
I am very very shy when it comes to meeting strangers and people.
I don't mingle around much and I don't drink and I don't smoke. So, what else could I do other than stick close to hubby and close friends / colleagues??
And this year's theme is 'Back to School'...
Grrrrrrr..... reat... I've already managed to borrow a school uniform from hubby's cousin who has just finished her high school. Thank God with this theme I don't have to worry about getting make up and stuff, since, well... yes, I don't do make up as well... I am such a low maintenance woman come to think of it!!!
Anyway, school uniform - check... sling bag (which is actually Ben's old diaper/travel bag) - check... shoes - hmmm... just going to wear my sandals... so shoes - check, books... maybe I should bring some stuff to read... meal plans for Ben - check... hope I didn't miss out anything...
Hmmmm... I hope I get through this dinner smoothly...

Well, I never had a formal dinner, but my fingers are crossed for you and I'm sure you'll be just fine :)
A themed dinner function? That actually sounds like fun and it takes the guess work out of "What am I going to wear?" Have a great time. Please be sure to tell us all about it tomorrow!
Hi Vivienne,
Thanks, thanks...I'm just kinda planning to camouflage and blend into the background and just enjoy myself with the hopefully nice food... ;p
Hey Polly!
I'll try to snap some pics and post up something... ;p
I'll be there, Jenny. One less stranger lah :)
Wei Yun!
Hmmmm...getting nervous... 5 more hours...
Relax, relax...
All ordinary folks. Just prepare yourself for a good laugh, looking at all the old uncle and aunty in school uniforms, haha!
Thanks for cheering me up, Wei Yun! See you tonight! :|
A formal dinner function where people dress up in school uniforms? Sounds more like a clubbing theme! =-P
You never struck me as shy, always touting your poo pictures. ;)
Regards

I'm so shy that I only dared to post Ben's poop pictures instead of mine ;p
Just remember...it's only a dinner. You know how to eat, don't you? Have fun...SITS sent me by, and I'm glad they did!
