  • Cal Bears in HK

    Last Saturday was the annual Berkeley Ball, a formal dinner ball for Cal alumni and friends presented by the Berkeley Club of Hong Kong. As a fellow alumni, I was also photographing the event so I was pretty busy all evening, although I was still able to enjoy parts of the evening, especially the Men's Octet performance.

    There were 350 guests (alumni and friends), and the event was sold out. Who knew there were so many Cal alumni here in HK?! I won't say what year I graduated (that'd give my age away...hehe), but let's just say that it's been a long time since I've been in a room with so many Cal people, including a professor (guest speaker, Dr. George Smoot III).

    Go Bears!

    These guys are literally "Cal Bears"! ;)






    The Men's Octet was there, and they were amazing! If you're not familiar, they're a widely popular 8-member male student acappella group at UC Berkeley. Aside from their regular concerts around the Bay Area and the States, they also perform for students on the Berkeley campus plaza at lunchtime every week or so. As a student (oh so many years ago), it was at these lunchtime performances that I first discovered them. Ahh, the memories... :)






    Me and my friend Wendy (also a fellow alum).

    Reunions are a great time to meet old and new faces; sharing stories and accomplishments as well.

    How fun!  Hey, we're not THAT old!  Actually, I think out of all of us (Terence, Stephen, me and you) I think you aged the least amount!  I on the other hand aged the MOST!

    Awesome!!!  Looks like it was a fun event, thanks for sharing your great photos!  Go Bears!!!

    Btw, I have never been to a Sammi concert and I debated on heading out to Las Vegas this past year to see her but with buying a new house, money's tight.  I will just admire her from afar.  =)

    ah,  swang and I chose the Macau grand prix over this.... and although it looks like fun,  i'll chose fast cars over dressing up if i have the choice. ;-)

    i haven't been to an event since last year though,  i hope they do more again soon.
