Hello people, sorry for the extremely late update! I do have some really important news here.

1. ATTENDANCE!
After the final collection of the 45 dollars on 19th, we have recorded only a total of 43 people attending the prom.
After that we went to meet Mr Soh who said that 43 is something like a class outing. It would be unenjoyable to organise a prom in the hall which would have too much space to fill in.
He hence suggested a change of theme - eg BBQ or hi tea or something.

For the past few days, Huisze&Connie has been looking for location at sentosa so that we can have a little party there. However, after searching there isn't an ideal location within the budget that we have set.

2. HIGHLY IMPORTANT!
With this, i would like to announce that the prom is cancelled. We will be refunding the full amount to you. However, for those who wish to continue we are pleased to inform you that we have managed to source out two good resturants located in town for a nice gathering.
The websites are :
1. http://bobbys.com.sg
2. http://www.palatevine.com.sg
You may take a look and let us know if you are attending still.
The date is still the same, time to be confirmed.

Do let Huisze&Connie know if you wna refund by thursday, 26th november 2009, 2359 hours.
We will then be meeting you on Friday at the pavilion outside school from 10 to 11 to refund you :D
If you are joining the dinner, we would like to let yknow that we are currently in discussion with the resturants for a suitable meal/course dinner. After the dinner we can go and high :D The leftover money will be returned on that day! :D

Thats all, we regret to inform you this decision as there is v v v low attendance.
Love, Huisze&Connie,

2009-11-11T05:18:00.001-08:00

Hello again.

Firstly- sorry for all the confusion of the venues.

We confirm now, that its school/

I'm very sorry that this decision is very, very, very, very ,very disappointing.

A few things to clarify

1) MONEY MATTERS

55bucks - for what we told the comb science people today is a rough budget. it'll be lower than that because we hear a lot of complains that since its in school, its too expensive. It'll not exceed 50. we apologise for the very scary information.

2) Venue- school

Firstly, we apologise we cannot have it in the hotel for basically two reasons

(i) lets not talk about affording it first.

We are second priority for the hotel, number one, and it'll be very difficult for us to get the place if we have very little people- which is so because a lot cannot afford.

Yes we know you'll say " then get a hotel or a date that we have first priority"

A lot of hotels are fully booked. and, we've tried a lot of hotels and we've only got one response.

Yes, you might say " why so loser?" We're very sorry.

We've tried Orchid Country Club as well- but we need 400 to have the ballroom. and we do not have 400 unless everyone makes it.

(ii) having it at the hotel will really stop a lot of people from attending. because of the price.

I shall not elaborate on this because its very straight forward

So, I know all of you are like - " SCHOOL, SIAN, DON'T WANT TO COME LIAOZSX"

But, we hope you can understand.

Of course, we apologise that we did not look for many many many many many many hotels.

The aim of the prom, is for everyone to get together and enjoy the last night together.

If we go for something that some people really really want, and we forget the rest of our friends who might not be able to make it, isn't it not very nice

we know - everyone wants to have a very very very very glam, prom.

school does not mean - lousy.

Please trust that we'll do our best to plan this prom, to make it memorable.

this is an event that we want to include most of our friends in.

we hope that you won't say that its lousy because its in school,

we're here together as one batch. lets think for one another.

71 bucks - huh so ex.

school- huh so lousy.

we're sorry, we cannot satisfy your disatisfaction, we truly are.

we hope to see you on friday still!

$22 bucks, is to confirm you're coming

the remaining amount will be collected on another day- most prob the day itself :D

I hope you'll be convinced.

We really, will try to make this a fab one :D

Love, Organizing Com.

A-LO-HA!

People, this entry aims to give a brief idea of the themes,
I've tried to come up with the best themes I could,
So read the details bfr deciding! :)

FIRST: No specific dress code for most the themes!

SECOND: There will be a theme song for each theme. Theme song has to be quite slow, cause cannot starting alrd 'high', y'all will be exhausted. P/S: Theme songs have yet to be finalised.
THIRD: Be ready to danceeeeeeeeeee!

1. BORN TO BE WILD

This is a wild theme, you can dress anyth you like, -in animal prints? anything.
However, it can also be referring to rocker style. So there's no limit to dresscode.
So don't feel pressurized. It's not a beauty contest.

Theme song: -

2. ESCAPE

This theme is more like a funky and freedom kind of thing. It marks the end of our secondary school life, and prom is kinda like an escape avenue, or whatever you wna think of to link to the theme. You wna come in glittery dress, no problem! HAHAHA.

Theme song: -

3. PAINT IT BLACK AND WHITE

Black and White always reminds you of the past, -walking down memory lane etc.
So for this, strictly black and white clothing. If you want to make it a masquerade, it'll be great. But, not all would want to take their time to make their masks. But, maybe y'all can buy!

Theme song: -

4. RETRO ROMANCE (I kinda typed it wrongly at the poll)

Basically, it is one of the most specific theme. Retro. If you choose this, you'll have to go shopping and choose retro clothes and ready to be retro! Polka dots, hairbands, Afro hairstyle! HAHA, hmm, and more. That means, the 60' music will accompany us throughout the night.

Theme song: -

5. TUESDAY NIGHT FEVER

This is a retro theme but not as specific as Retro Romance. For this, we can have most genre of songs. No specific dresscode. Tuesday, cause prom day falls on Tuesday.

Theme song: -

6. NIGHTLIFE 2009

This actually associates wildness, funkiness, and everything together. No specific dresscode too.
I like this, no tryna influence you, but, it's more general and kinda cover every aspect. hahaha! still, it's your decision! :-D

Theme song: -

LASTLY,

A) STRICTLY NO SLIPPERS!
B) THEME SONGS WILL BE UP BY THIS WEEK. So look out for it!

Cheers, Irina.
Any ques, ask me personally or email to clambake!

: To those who are like " Huhhhh, its in school." we understand your -huhhhh(s).

But, we promise that we'll make it very very memorable for everyone. We ourselves won't want to regret, so we don't want you to regret making the decision to come to prom too!

Also, we would like to urge people who really can make it to come!

Though the venue isn't the best, it doesn't matter the most

What matters is the friends around you, the time you spend with your friends, and the last moments with your batchmates.

We are truly sorry if the decision to have prom in school has upsetted many,

We hope the prom that you'll attend this year, WILL be a memorable one, and we definitely are trying our best! :D

We sincerely hope to get your support,

And thank you for reading!

We love you! :D

LATEST HOT UPDATE FOR PROM!

Okay, we have been getting alot of response regarding the prom that the cost is quite high and i think quite a few of you have expressed that school will be a better cheaper option.
So for now, we are stating our finalised details.

VENUE : School Hall
DATE : 1 December 2009.
TIME : to be confirmed.

As we are holding it in the school, the price would be cheaper - most probably around $55. The money would be used for decorations, caterers, deejay, Emcees and staff.
As usual, we will be having the first collection on the dates as stated in the post right before this.
The first collection would also be $22. However if you wish to pay the full sum you may as well.

Huisze&Connie will be meeting MrSoh to discuss the details for the prom like the time and everything. As we are holding it in the school we will have to get approval from MrTanYeeKan. Hence, dates is subjected to changes.

We are extremely sorry for the changes, but it another light, the school can be quite a cool place too! Plus, we can pay lesser now.
We will try to make it as nice as possible one lah.
SEEYOU AT PROM!

HELLO :D

FIRST CHOICE FOR PROM

We've looked at Intercontinental hotel, and the possible date for the prom if it would be there would be December 1st!

Interconti- 70.62 bucks per person --- yeap this sounds a little bad? but

The place is good :D Connie and Huisze have went to see the place, and extra info from connie was that, Lee Min Ho stayed at intercontinental when he came to Singapore so, :D YEAH!

HAHAH!

Extra information, if most people are agreeable to have it there, we have to confirm very soon because we're second in the waiting list for the December 1st!

If we're able to pay the 30% deposit first, we might get the place :D

and, its really a great place

the ballroom is humungous, the lights are pretty

the atmosphere is wonderful,

and outside the ballroom, before the prom starts, there'll be a cocktail reception!

and you can take tonsssss of photos and warm up before the actual thing starts :D

SECOND CHOICE-

SCHOOOL!

School would be kind of weirrdddddd, but it would be cheaper and we can actually get caterers and people to do up the place and the atmosphere could be as good!

So, I need everyone to confirm with your monitors your attendance first!

then, further information will be given out

we need to act fast, to make prom great :D

Also, we're hoping the 4N ,4E and 5N will all make it :D so nobodys left out :D

Hope you'll make it, we'll have a great time!

*PS, seriously, interconit seems to be worth it :D

TATA!

** CONNIE IS NOT A LEE MINHO FAN, SHE READS THE NEWS!
