The Silverstones, an NUSS band, provided the entertainment and accompanied ASA members and guests who belted out evergreens and Christmas songs during open mic. Professional dancers Mr Lim Chee Kiang (Engineering \u201983) and guest performer Ms Jaslin Lim danced gracefully and flawlessly to the songs \u2018Pink Lemonade\u2019 and \u2018Happy Christmas\u2019, mesmerising everyone present. Although it was only the first day of the Christmas month, the mood and spirit of Christmas caught on very quickly when attendees did the conga dance to the song \u2018Gimme Hope Jo\u2019anna.\u2019 Throughout the celebration, everyone danced and sang, and of course, helped themselves to the delectable Christmas hi-tea buffet and ate heartily.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
