A very good evening ladies and gentlemen, a very warm welcome and thank you for joining us on this special day of Jasper&Seeyin.... thats how it begins......
It was Monday at the wedding banquet, I was supposed to be there at 6 pm for the debriefing, rushed from my office 5:30 sharp hope to reach on time, aiks i was late and my partner was there rehearsing himself when i reached. Quickly i changed and got ready for the last rehearsal...oh my, its almost 7pm then and the guests were coming in soon.
I'm not used to public speaking, even worse this is the first time emceeing, quite nervous and heart beating fast..90rpm?. My worrisome came by... but with the help of my partner, we managed to run through a few times, and i was wee bit relieved.
It started around 83o that night, was slightly delayed. Standing on the platform, facing the guests, i felt adrenaline rushed through my veins at first. Slowly and steadily, we carried through the first session, then the second. I like the toast session best, the "yam seng" cheers from heng dai was like eveready batt, long and powerful. Finally, we made the closing and banquet ended at 1030.
It was a wonderful night, and i had great time, gave it a 99% =)
Nothing to boast about, but im really happy for passing my basic theory test...after years (2 yrs to be exact, ever since sis bought a car) of wanting to have my driving license converted. I was perpetually delaying, gave all sorts of excuses i.e. laz to study, no leave to sit for exam, the exam is tough, timing not right .... all lame excuses i could think of.
