Last Friday, we headed out to the Wang cousins' space-themed party for the viewing of Mars. The place was decorated with big blue and silver stars, blue and silver streamers, and a huge TV playing space movies. There were also so many desserts! Saw GChoi and ILee, two of my babies. :P For the viewing of Mars, we all headed outdoors at midnight. The location of the house was perfect for star gazing - no city lights to obscure the view. When we first saw Mars, it was a "Is that Mars?" reaction. You know how we're always told that Mars is red? Well, it was more of an ivory-with-orange-glints star. It was definitely the biggest "star" in the sky. Mr. Adprab had a pair of red sunglasses which he supposedly got for free at some club. Putting the shades on, Mars was definitely red. So his free sunglasses were of some use. :P Ooh, I also got to see the Milky Way. I never noticed it before in the sky but I guess it's always been there.

We're SO close to booking a DJ. So there's this one DJ who sent us this really nice folder of contracts, customer testimonials, songlits, and scheduling sheets...but we haven't met him yet. I feel almost BAD for not booking an appointment to speak with him. grrrr. Not sure if we should. Why couldn't he just meet with us? sheesh!
