Year 1 Medic Ball 2006

Venue: Radisson SAS Hotel, Glasgow
date: 12th May 2006
Time: 7pm-1am

my first ball in glasgow!
it was smashing!
quite crazy.. 3 weeks before our finals, we are having a ball. and now that it's over, im thinking about exams again. I need to catch up with my revision and stress isnt helping much!
anyway...
the ball was fantastic, other than sean pissing out and we had to send him back to murano before supper.
but it was good fun.. everyone was so dressed up and pretty! we had a 3 course dinner, ceilidh (scottish) dance, disco.. and post ball events.
got to mix around with other people from other groups, dance with everyone,and know my friends better!. scots are so friendly and sociable... i just love it.
haha the dance floor was too small!
it was so so so fun dancing with everyone else! haha more hilarious, cause we were like little kids..
niece jonathan and maria are tops when it comes to stamina. esp jonathan... they danced so much!
mich and sean... sigh sigh. got tipsy too quickly!

I had my first dance ever, in all my 20 years.
and it felt....a little clumsy. yet somewhat natural.

we went to mayflower for supper till 3am. got home at half 3. watched the sunrise at 5am. slept at 6am, after washing up.

i was happy watching the seagulls flying in the sky, talking about lighthouses, and i remember tearing as i looked into the vast sky. His majesty and splendor, and His kingdom yet to come!

it was a beautiful night and morning,i know when i look back in future, I will have extremely fond memories. when i was a wee bit younger, and more naive, and .. greedy? i never thought memories were satisfying enough for me, that they couldnt mean something very very big. but i was changed, and i think, when we dunno what tomorrow holds and when we are called to greater things above, memories.. are what keeps that sentimental part of us alive. and the ones ive had, will certainly be more than enough for me to be thankful and happy.very happy. may they propel me to fulfil my calling, and you too as well.

*a toast to faith and hope and love*


it's a night i will always remember, and im sure when i look back in future, i will have very fond memories.
