Greatest Christmas Party Ever
The moment the invitation was posted I knew I’m coming to the Black Tie Christmas Party of IATA Geneva and it was almost a month ago.
As days passed by and pressure is sinking in to find the perfect dress, perfect get up, shoes… everything. It wasn’t just an ordinary party, it’s a black tie party - my first! It’s like a gala that you have to wear an evening gown and be a perfect lady like for the night.
Finally last weekend my ex-boss from Manila convinced me that I will meet everybody on that night, a chance I should not miss! So last Monday, I started hunting for the perfect dress and I only entered one store and after trying a few items finally the saleslady handed me a very simple and yet elegant black dress. It fit very well and I immediately paid for it.
Two days after I bought the perfect shoes to match the perfect dress and undergarments as well. I called the hairstylist to do a homeservice of my makeup and hair. So at 8:31 pm on Thursday I was at Movenpick Hotel already. It was a 4 course sit down dinner and I’m glad I made the effort of dressing up because everybody was so gorgeous on their night gowns and black tuxedos.
It was a fun atmosphere though I know not many wants to join because of the event being so formal but who cares, it’s not everyday that I get the chance to dress up like a real lady. So dinner was served and everybody is full already. There were wines everywhere and after a good dinner it was Party time.
I was seated with a couple of friends but I was looking for my team and finally I saw them on the other side of the room. People were dancing already but I don’t like the ethnic songs that are being played but I was on a very upbeat and happy mood =)
Finally the nice musics are playing already and it was party time. Everybody is already in the dance floor and I am so glad I joined. On our nice clothes and nice get up we were dancing our hearts out. Nobody cares about the moves just upbeat motions at the dance floor. People of differnt ranks were partying like crazy and it was so much fun!
I’m so glad I attended. It was a first kind of a thing for me.
