Linda's Sau Gong Party 29 Jan 2016

Before I start the onslaught of CNY posts I want to highlight Linda's Sau gong party!  Sau gong means to wrap up the year's work and go on a hiatus for CNY celebrations, then continue work after the Lunar New Year.

So it was ... we had a grand Sau Gong Party at Hee Lai Ton on 29 January 2016 where we all dressed to the 9s, ate,danced and had a blast to sau gong, except that it was not from "gong"

or work, but dance classes, hehe!

 Linda surrounded by some of her students (there are more!) after we gave her a hamper to show our appreciation.

 Out teacher looking radiant and beautiful in her profile pic.

 Dressed elegantly, the type of gown I would like to wear as a "mother-in-law" hehehe..if only I had her figure and height.

see? we are goofing around with selfies, dressed in red and eating tangerines, abundant during this season.

 We always have lots of fun taking pictures

and selfies in between food

and mock molest!

So, sau gong is also good excuse for a party, no?

Pre CNY Party by Jenny

This is Jenny, my first dance teacher after I moved to Puchong. Although I went on to join other classes and had other teachers, I still stuck with her, mainly also because of all the friends that I have made here!

Jenny in front with her selfie stick and all of us kwai kwai at the back!

my friends are from the Tempua Monday class and BK3 Tuesday class, some too, like me are also from another dance teacher class, hehe, we join a lot of classes! Note my hair, still fresh and nice!

To start of our mini party, we had a few dances first!

In face, quite a few! I am hidden, behind Lee Lee!

After dancing, we ate! Look at my hair. all wet and plastered to my face!

Well, at least I had a good workout!

 

Food was potluck, we brought stuff to share!
