SCB Christmas Party 2008 - 12Dec08




It was time again for the annual SCB Christmas Party. However, this year's party was more low-keyed compared to the previous years. For one, the prizes were not as grand but they did not scrimp on the food and the open bar. Party was held at the PICC Forum Food was catered by Via Mare. Our table was also very nicely placed. Our seats were preassigned and it was a nice surprise to see that we're seated behind the CEO table, near the stage exactly in the middle.

Contrary to what other people think, I just proved that pregnant women are not necessarily lucky in raffle prizes. They gave away 100 winners of 1000 pesos, 20 winners of 5000 pesos, 5 winners of 10000 pesos, 1 winner of 20000 pesos, 1 winner of 30000 and 1 winner of 50000 and I did not win any of those. There were minor appliance prizes and I didn't win any of that too! Oh well.

We didn't have trip prizes this year (we used to have prizes for trip to the US, Europe, Australia etc) probably due to the economic crisis and we somehow understood that. It was fun though even if I was not able to join my team in the round of drinks (the tequila shots just keep on coming) and the dancing. I think my baby enjoyed it though as he kept on kicking during the live band performance.

Sunshine Sangalang said...

Sunshine Sangalang said...

thank you :) too bad i couldn't wear heels to go with the dress. i just had to go with my flats/sandals.

Norrie Blackeby said...

Were they the ones??? Gosh they look nice eh? Definitely hindi Market Market yan! I am glad you're using them :-)

Norrie Blackeby said...

Doesn't matter. The outfit looks very nice--siyempre nasa nagdadala eh?

Sunshine Sangalang said...

oh yeah. natatawa nga ako kasi they were asking me who did my hair as well. eh i just blow-dried my hair nung morning, put it up the whole day and took it down for the party. ganda na ng bagsak. hehe. i did my own make-up too.

Nonie David Carluen said...

Nonie David Carluen said...

so the choice was either you go to the party or you go to work? i don't get it.

Nonie David Carluen said...

naks naman - you now know how to blow dry your hair and put on make-up?! i am impressed.

Nonie David Carluen said...

bawal ba sa team mo ang aesthetically challenged?

Nonie David Carluen said...

ganda mo sunshine.

Sunshine Sangalang said...

yes, i think so.

Sunshine Sangalang said...

actually, the party was held after work. yun nga lang, in order to win in the raffle, you have to be present.

Sunshine Sangalang said...

siyempre, maganda at guwapo lahat sila. maganda ang boss nila eh. hahaha!

Sunshine Sangalang said...

thank you :) i was not happy with my make-up initially pero nothing much i can do about it as i did not splurge on a make-up artist like what my other officemates did.

JC Sobejana said...

wow buti ka pa nasuot mo sya.....di ko sya masuot.

Sunshine Sangalang said...

ba't di mo masuot? actually, maluwang siya sa breast area pero ok lang sa tummy area kasi ang laki talaga ng tummy ko.
