Mambo Jumbo

November 4, 2010 by natasha Leave a Comment

With 2 new folks (from HQ) in town, and Viki asking me if I was gamed for a night out of Mambo Jumbo (something we agreed to do once every 5 years just to access how old we’ve become, or how young we still are!), I organized a last minute party to Zouk yesterday, shouting across desks to whoever else was interested to join in and made concrete plans. We were going to show our US folks what synchronized dancing in Singapore was all about!

We agreed to meet at 10, I only managed to arrived at 11 after some unforeseen delays here and there; still early by Mambo’s night standards no less – and managed to get a long nice table just beside one of the bars and right beneath the DJ. It was awesome, having all that space to ourselves, until some old man and his younger mistress came along to share it and even stopped us from taking photos (at one stage), just in case he might get caught fooling around…or that’s least what one of my colleagues thought. Hah!

And as always, some good things NEVER change. And the music really only started to peak from 12.30am onwards. We squealed, screamed, mimic the appointed dancers on the podiums, jumped around as we clang our beer mugs and cocktail glasses and laughed away. Oh boy, those feelings of good ol days of going almost every Wednesday then just came gushing into my very happy heart.

I couldn’t fit my compact cam into my teeny weeny bag, so here’s some low quality shots from the iphone4. Even the flash from the phone couldn’t save it. Blah!

Hello, I’m Natty

Hey there, and welcome!

I’m Natty – a full time working mom in the media industry, and one who mom-guilts a fair bit. I am known for throwing ridiculously last minute yet spectacular (by my standards) birthday parties for my kids, hunting down places to entertain the kids with, and sometimes advice my fellow parenting bloggers and marketers on advertising rates and formats with my media hat.

When I’m not snoozing on any of my kids’ bed while winding them down for bedtime, I’m here blogging about parenthood, family travels, last minute party preps and broaching ‘usually unspoken’ topics which I believe needs to be shared more of – such as fertility challenges, the ups and downs of marriage life, learning how to exercise self-compassion, parenting truths, and adulting (the real 30-something sort, not the millennial’s definition).

I’m no pinterest or helicopter mom, so don’t expect stylised photos and curated stories in this space.

Also, if you have any party-related questions like where I ordered that gorgeous chiffon birthday cake from, you can start by reading ‘Diary of a Party Mum’ page. Else, feel free to drop me a note, query or connect with me on Instagram @so.nattyb or email me at sonattyb@gmail.com
