Chalet on the 9th and 10th December!!!

Ok Gang,I presume all of you are here staring at this ugly,lifeless thing which I think people are calling a "blog" or something like that after receiving my message. Well, I don't think I really need a blog,but I have my reasons for having one now,and I have a feeling I'll bore you guys with these reasons,but what the heck,I guess I'll bore you
anyway.Therefore,the reasons are as follows:

Sometimes I may organize outings or events such as bowling, karaoke or just simply a lepak session. Now,because the GANG is expanding by the day,I can't simply send an sms because a)I don't have everyone's contact numbers (eg baizura and shu,and I'm too shy to ask..really...) b)the message itself would take up 3-4 pages and not everyone will receive it (try sending a 3-page sms to 20 people) and c)some people,it seems, don't bother to reply to smses (no nashriq,I'm not referring to you).
Oh, and to sound like dayat, "sms nowadays expensive".

Which brings us to using e-mails, but similarly, I don't have everyone's e-mail accounts and this time, I'm too lazy to ask (try keying in AnUar_R84@hotmail.com into ur hp and you'll see what I mean).

And planning these outings during our monthly gatherings doesn't seem to help cos they always seem to "tak jadi" in the end. So I did my homework and observed that most of the GANG have their own blogs and are quite active on the net.Then, like a flash of lightning,it hit me that hey,maybe starting my own blog is a way to reach out to these people.

Hence the birth of this blog,so tt you techno-savvy individuals can just simply log on to the net and check the details of upcoming events and outings right here. Whether I will update it regularly with sprinklings of my boring little life,laced with unimportant ramblings such as "oh,my toenail broke yesterday and it hurts" or "caught brad pitt/orlando bloom/aliff aziz/bj kadir on tv and he's soooo handsome!" is another matter altogether. But hey,even Dayat achieved gold in his IPPT during NS,showing that the impossible CAN happen,so do watch this space.

Ok,now that we have got "THE REASONS" out of the way (that was quite a mouthful wasn't it?), its time for "THE CHALET". Ok,basically,I had been panning a chalet for us and have been scouring the net for a suitable chalet that is affordable,available and is big enough to house all of us (all of us refers to: me,sri,dayat,fana,nozie,sharul,arip, rad,al,azlina,baizura,nashriq,qiqin,firdy,mar,azrie,shu,maria,hykel & zaf-->20 of us). Now,I have already taken leave for 9 & 10 dec which, incidentally, coincides with our dear Nozie's birthday. So,the chalet will be held over this 2 days. The chalet which I have selected,after painstakingly studying the other chalets,is aloha changi chalet L.You can view the details of the chalet here: https://www.aloharesorts.com.sg/booking/chalet/chaletDetails.asp?lid=9.

Now,because yours truly is a civil servant (ehem ehem),I get to book the chalet at a subsidised rate of $85/day so its $170 for 2 days,$181.70 after GST.But here's the thing - I need you guys to get back to me A.S.A.P on whether you can make it for the chalet because most of the chalets are fully booked and I want to book this chalet by tuesday latest. I can't book now because there's a cancellation fee if I cancel and it doesn't make sense to go ahead with it when only 4 people can make it (what?!and play Scrabble all night?).

Therefore I really need your cooperation on this one and do what is necessary to make it for the chalet.Apply leave,claim off,take MC,whatever - get back to me asap via sms. And for your info,7th is a sunday,8th is a public holiday(deepavali) so maybe you can have a long weekend and come back to work on Thursday? I promise you there will be lots of fun but its only fun if all of us are there.

So please say you can go and we'll all be happy. =)
