We shall henceforth remember this weekend as either a “gourmet” weekend or a “stuff-face” weekend or worse still, an indigestion weekend :p.. I have just ingested two tabs of Rennie (medication for indigestion) and I still don’t feel much better. Burp!

After the afternoon lunch session, all of us were sure we didn’t need food again until, err… probably Monday or something :p. But guess we had underestimated our appetites. By the time we got to Brewerkz in the evening and found lay before us chips of a thousand different flavours (tortilla, tapioca, keropok, etc etc) as well as nicely grilled bbq wings, onion rings, pizzas and what-nots, we found ourselves eating again. I am convinced we are indeed gluttons.….

Solemnisation and celebrations went like a breeze, except for a short (and amusing) moment when the lovely Justice of Peace’s feathers were ruffled when she was (in her own words) “for the very first time” called the "JOP" (instead of the usual JP). Hahaha..

On our part, I think we made the night memorable for our dear friend (and maybe for ourselves as well), breaking into a rendition of our much loved RGS song & motto “Filiae Melioris Aevi” (Daughters of A Better Age) - sung opera-style (with the appropriate accompanying handhold), followed by an impromptu acapella “Stand By Me” with swinging, swagging and finger clicking…it was fun and at the same time sentimentally nostalgic... of course we would all have loved to sing the actual RGS school song, except that none of us could really remember past the first line - "From High Olympus flows to us the glory... err...err...".. :p found it online anyway..
