Heart 2 Heart Nite

The atmosphere was romantic at the fairytale castle on valentine's night. The garden was lit by the gentle glow of candles (littered all around the perimeter) and ambient maroon lights. Nine tables were set and forty gorgeous people turned up decked in their glamarous best for the first ever Transit and LIFE organised Heart 2 Heart Nite.On the fence, hundreds of little lights cast a fairy tale ambience, setting the tone for a candlelit garden party. Guests mingled and exchanged pleasantries to the sway of easy-on-the-ears love songs.Candles burnt all night as we sang, danced, laughed, and feasted. The ice-breaker was -as promised- the fairy tale game. Each person was given a fairy tale role -prince charming, snow white, the little mermaid, etc etc. Then the girls had to find their partners by asking every guy by random. A funny thing that happened was Joy had a midnight curfew, and ironically the card she got was Cinderella.There were special performances from Darren & Bernice (who wore a dress for the first time in her life), Tammy & Joshua. Games were played. Songs were dedicated. Uncle Kevin and Auntie Lillian danced. Photos were taken. And as the last glass was raised to end a fantastic Valentine's night, the satisfied guests left.... and the crew started clearing until the wee morning hours. Yup, it was a great Valentine's Day for all of us -some of us more than others.Kudos to Kevin & Chloe for a good job done.

Kevin braved the last minute rush and millions of changes to see this event through. It was amazing how he managed to do it all though he had to face an exam the day after. Hey, you did well, we're very proud of you!

Chloe was very sick before, during and after the event. Yet she gamely worked hard alongside us til the wee hours of midnight without a complaint; and still managed to look gorgeous that night. Here's to you, girl!


Special mention goes to Lydia Lamit who worked around the clock to help prepare the food, even missing the first 2 performances to help the caterers, you're the best, girl! Shannon was a doll to help with transporting things and people, we appreciate your generosity with your car.... it's a big deal to us that you allowed us to put so much junk in it, because we know how well you look after your car.
Justin (Jianz) was instumental in the moving and clearing up of things, your strength is your strength! Thank you for all your tireless efforts... since you've came to Transit you've been such a great help.

Joshua Long was a godsend in buying and picking up last minute things when we most needed it. You saved the day, Joshua!

Ben Michael kept the music and dedications going on all night, a heroic sacrifice indeed. You rock, Ben!

Justin Ooi (yeah, Pino!) and Darren Ashley were very very helpful in putting up all the thousand little lights, moving furniture, cleaning up, etc... they endured the dirtiest jobs with an admirable attitude. You guys are fantastic... thanks again Justin for your ever-ready helpfulness, and Darren for performing.

To Yaw, thank you for taking all those tables and chairs, moving everything back, transporting the sound system, japanese screen, etc. You may be quiet but your presence is so very important.

Che Siong, we are grateful you stayed to help clear up, fetch people, manage the food, keep things in order... you know your contribution did not go unnoticed.

Bernice, the girl who looked gorgeous in a dress, thanks for fixing up the sound system and wiring. Faster train up someone before you leave... if not next time havoc!

Sean J, for emceeing and turning down Ferhad to be there for us, you're the man! Hope Valentine's was as good for you as it was for Hosanna... hehe.

Auntie Lillian deserves the credit for a delicious meal which was beautiful presented, we're amazed at how you whipped everything together! This night could not have been possible without you. And thanks for loaning us so many things from your house..

To Uncle Kevin, who worked behind the scenes to hold everything together, and quietly snuck behind to wash dishes while everyone was busy enjoying themselves... thank you again for everything you do.

A huge shoutout to our sponsors Auntie Betty Saw and Uncle Shum Chew Weng. Thank them for their generosity the next time you see them in church. Thanks also to Vincent Tan for loaning us the lights and fabric.


Of course, we owe special thanks to Auntie Anne for her generosity in letting us use her kindergarten for free. Thank you very much! We admire your work with the special children.


Most of all, we thank God for going before us to make everything turn out so smoothly. It was clear that His hand was upon this in getting us so many sponsors and allowing the event to work with just one week's planning.

It's such a crazy thing... only by His divine favor could this have worked out. Such is His grace, mercy and goodness, He even controlled the rain and gave us perfect weather (anyone notice how there was no wind so the candles were able to burn all night? It was raining and windy every night that week before and after the event.) We love because He first loved us!


You guys, it was such an amazing night. Im so proud to work side by side with so many talented people. Your sacrifices and love spur me on and encourage me to be a more generous and giving person. I'm so touched by all the love we had for one another that night. You guys are the best! Love y'all....
