HAPPY NEW YEAR

In the New Year 

I wish you the best year you’ve ever had

And that each New Year

Will be better than the last

May you realize your fondest dreams

And take time to recognize and enjoy

Each and every blessing.

Happy New Year 2014 and many more!!

It was a last minute decision actually.. . was decided little more than a couple of days ago. I was thinking, hey this is madness. How can we possibly do it in 3 days. The Chairlady just said.. 'ok let's do it on the 30th December.'.... I was thinking geezz.. easier said than done.. But  she said, "come on.. 'Let's Just Do It! ".

Yes, a Christmas and New Year Party to be hosted by the Unduk Ngadau Organising Committee and to invite all the  'State Level Unduks  Particpants of 2013'. Well we did not really expect the 41 ladies' attendance especially when invitation was at the eleventh hour and so the attendance of some 16 ladies was actually great!

And we did it, yes, with cooperation and teamwork by some of our committee members, we managed to find a lovely venue at the KDCA Cultural Village, caterer, arranged games and entertainment, decoration, got confirmation from more than 50 guests consisting of crew members, members of MICC of KDCA, Unduk Ngadau Committee and viola, we were set to go!

Guests were informed of the theme colour which was red and came 7.00 pm, the lovely guests strode in mostly decked in red...

Weather was superb, not a drop of rain, the food and drinks great, the music lovely and we sang and dance into the night till we almost dropped...hahaha.. I got a leg cramp from dancing the "Jamilah Dance', absolutely delightful..

Cheers everyone,  and Happy New Year!!
