I think my quarter century mark is going to be a very precious memory in my heart for years and years to come. Keke. Yeah.
Received alot of well wishes from my friends right from the clock striked 12mn to before the day ended. Think about 20 lovely people remembered it was the day of my first cry and sent me a simple but much appreciated "Happie Bdae". Feels good. I always wonder when will be the day I stop receiving bdae msgs, because i guess when you grow older, some people just don't care anymore or don't bother anymore? Will we start to feel that a birthday is just another birthday? I guess so. SOme people just don't think it's any special, despite it's the day you were brought into this world. Well. I think it's special. Haha. So while I still get to enjoy the feeling of being a birthday princess, I will. Hehe. =) It also shows that I've touched the lives of these friends somehow, which is why they remember me bah. Thanks so much to them.
Anyway I had a nice dinner with the badz gals on Sat nite at Vivo Marche. Too bad jen and dino were not there to join us. After dinner, we made our way to my fav clubbing place and had a smashing celebration at St James. Hazel, huimin, me, yijia, yongsiang, weimin, tianlu and gf, xinjie and keith. One bot of chivas, one bot of hennessy, one flaming lambor for me (which cost only $10.70 during happy hour!). We played tag team games, guys vs gals (my favourite combi cos I'm always so confident when i'm with the gals, HAHA), and true enuff, we won more than the guys did. What was unfair was that when they lose, they only need to drink a mouthful, but when we lose, we down half a cup. All because they are in Yunshuang's team and i am the bdae gal. haha. but HEY, i think we still drank less than the guys. The live band was entertaining as usual, especially the gay guy who has endless sex jokes to talk about and who cross dresses (he wore this super tight tube) and it was super hilarious. =) I tink jw would have liked the band, and him. Hee.
We stayed till Boiler closed at bout 4am, moved on to Dragonfly, and we did a most amazing thing after that. Haha. At 5am, we set off to a KTV pub in Boat Quay. Me, haz, huimin, ah siang, & yijia. DAMN ONZ lar. Played bluff with dice, sang a couple of songs, played poker cards till 6am where the pub shut down. ANDDDDD, we went to eat prata. And had a good old chat, like how we always do. As usual, I ordered plaster and I told yj that I had borderline high cholestrol. So, he forbidded me to eat the egg yolk, and though he had his retainer on and he didn't order any food, he purposely removed the retainer, and gulped my egg yolk for me. & even chided me when I tried to dip my prata in the remaining egg yolk on the plate. HAHA. Nag nag nag. But I think i need friends like him in my life. Yup. Can't live without them.
After we finished the prata at 7am, ah siang (the Boat Quay regular) told us that we can never get cabs there. True enuff, it seems like the whole singapore was also at boat quay at that time. Haha. So me, haz, yj and ys hopped onto bus 12 when we saw it, leaving the obstinate huimin who said she will wait for a cab herself. Haha. Funny thing is when we were on the bus, she msged saying she was also on a bus eventually cos there were NO cabs. HAHA. We were so tired on the bus, but we still kept on talking. Haha. About anything and everything. Till yj reached home, haz reached home, and me and yongsiang dropped at Blk 201 and walked two bus-stops home. TADAH. I reached home at 8.30am. Damn zai.
On Sunday, I celebrated my bdae together with Yuheng's 1-year-old bdae at jw's house. Well, he's an adorable BB. Makes me wanna cry when i flipped through his album, of his journey from shanmei's tummy till now. They kept all the foetus scans, the wristband at the hospital, the slip of paper that says 'Baby Boy' and his weight, head circumference etc. So sweet. I wanna do dat too for my BB next time. Hee.
On my actual day, I received nice presents from Leela, Janice and Aruna at work. 2 necklaces and a pair of earrings. Hee. And a nice bottle of sand and seashells from Elvina, all the way from South Africa where she went holiday-ing. =) & best of all, 12 pink roses from jw and a cute little furry teddy to go along with it. Hehe. Was looking forward to it all day long. So bad of me rite, like you have expectations about smtg, and when you have expectations, you will only create disappointment for yourself when one day the gift doesn't arrive. So maybe it should be HOPE, not expect. If it comes, it's a bonus. Janice said it'll be my last time receiving the prezzie, cos once after marriage, romance dies, and the guy will insist that $$ is better spent on milk powder instead. Wah lau. I don't believe. =) I think romance can last forever. Be it just one stalk of rose when you are old and frail.
So on this happy Monday (which doesn't have any blues =p), I went KTV with my dearest pals again. Maybe fate dictates. Cos those who could come tonite was exactly the St James gang on Sat nite. Me, haz, hm, weimin, ah siang, yj. HAHAHA. 3 on 3 again. Trust me, it was one of the wildest, craziest, fun, wacky KTV sessions I ever had in my entire life. Haha. Pssst, check out my room number above. Talk about coincidence, I think I should buy 4D this week. HAHAHA.
Well, it ain't the first time I experienced blackouts in Partyworld. The same thing happened few years back at Loyang Partyworld (on my birthday too), when I was there with jw and our families, after a nice dinner at Geyland Lai Huat. I tot it was Partyworld's way of saying happie bdae to me, HAHA! In the dark. Plus extended singing time. Plus a free jug of beer. Wahaha. This year, we were at International Building in Orchard, and the electricity jumped AT LEAST 10 times. Haha. Luckily they saved our list of selected songs. If not we will just faint. Wahaha. No beer this time, but after some sa jiao and haggling with the waiter, we had free additional drinks and they didn't charge $$ for the room. But hey, you think that's the end of the nite? Neh. When i mean crazy, I really mean crazy. Wahaha.
We still managed to sing quite alot of songs that nite, despite the blackouts. Hehe. We didn't wanna keep waiting for the electricity to turn back on and for the comp to keep restarting, so we took 6 sets of dice to play bluff while we waited. Wah rauz. Dear yijia and his fabulous forfeit ideas. I ended up balancing wet tissue on my head and biting a straw between my lips for 3 min each. If any dropped, time would restart. Look like a cuckoo! Haha. But who cares. Friends for 13 years liaoz. It wasn't easy for yijia too. He must have had a stiff neck from 'kiap-ing' the wet tissue with his cheek and shoulder blade, and then he had to balance FOUR wet tissues, two on his feet in the air, and two on each of his shoulder. Even more cuckoo. HAHA. Slowly, we up the stakes and soon before I realised it, I was performing a BAO QING TIAN in front of everybody, but HEY i only know the first two verses of the song can??? Supposed to sing until very wei1 wu3, and act like bao qing tian. Wahaha. My forfeit was the EASIEST. Cos I hardly knew the song. Haha.Here's what my fellow frenz had to perform in the end. Wahaha. When you lose, you perform!! I had so much fun and laughed soooo much at each.
1) Weimin - Sexy Naughty Bitchy (Tata Young)
Damn farnie! Jellyfish dance and he was supposed to keep touching his head to make it look sexy sexy sexy. Haha. He looks so comical and cute.
2) Yijia - Ai wu she (Jolin Tsai)
Our of the A.H.S's fav KTV song. Haha. This time round, yijia had to perform the whole song, imitate every dance move on the red sofa! *phew* I almost lost to him that round. Wahaha. It's so much more funny when he does the forfeit. Keke. Go go sister!! Go go brother!!
3) Huimin - Jiu gan tang buoy bo (Su Rei)
The only girl who can sing Hokkien songs well is Huimin. Wahaha. Damn high and hard to sing! She was supposed to be very melancholy and depressed at the start of the song, and then turned high and chirpy the next. Damn good! Like she was holding her own concert on the sofa. "Ba ni men de shou gei wo! (aka Give me your hands!) and we all started following her and singing with her. Damn high. Wahaha.
4) Yong Siang - Dui ni ai bu wan (Aaron Kwok)
100 marks for effort! He tried to jump, and shake, and dance like Aaron kwok in the video! Wahaha. Ah siang may be huge in size but he's not bad on the dance floor! Wahaha. =) Love this song. Reminds me of xiaozhu too. HAHA.
5) Hazel, featuring Yijia - Leng bao li (Jolin Tsai)
Too bad My hips don't lie didn't have the original MTV, so we settled for this, which was a good choice too. Wahaha. Body rolls and booty moves ain't a problem for Haz, and it was just entertaining and hilarious to see her and yijia try to follow all the moves together.
Right. I'm not putting up the above 5 videos here in case my friends decide to jue jiao with me when they realise. Wahaha. Maybe I will consider You Tube. HAHAHA. =) But hey, i'm showcasing the BEST video of the nite below. Read on. =)
At 12mn, when we were chased out by Partyworld who said they can't fix the technical hitch, we went to McDonald's for supper and drinks. Keke. Ma chiam next day no need work lidat. Woohoo. Anyway the story is that during KTV, yijia asked 'Do you know what's the use of a Sony Ericsson phone besides using it to call?' Obviously we didn't know, and I guess it was just another one of his lame jokes. Wahaha. But it was damn farnie! He had this ringtone that sounds EXACTLY like a shaver. So he put his handphone to his chin and started 'shaving'. Haha. Hilarious.
At McDonald's, weimin asked yijia to send him the ringtone, and the ever playful yj decided that wm should do a dare before he could earn the ringtone. So in the end it was decided they would challenge each other to Ji Ku Ba and the loser had to go up to the staff, ask for Sweet & Sour sauce, and in the midst of it, take out the phone and pretend to start shaving. Guess who lost? HAHAHA. You are right. it's the one who suggested the whole thing. Mr Chew Aik Kah aka Zhou Yijia. Here's the prized video. Wahaha.
Thanks for giving me so many fond memories on my bdae. Hee. My last bdae being single. I think I will always laugh my head off when I look at the videos and reminisce what happened tonite. Wahahaha. One of my best bdaes ever.

I remember 5 years ago, during my first year in uni, junwei and I were still not together as a couple, yet. =) It was in june, and we made a special trip back to hall to celebrate Muthu's bday for him. His 25th bdae. Junwei was still driving his red Honda, and he actually picked me up from my house. Haha. One of the first few occasions bah. I forgot whether I was already in love with him liaoz, or was it just a passing crush.
ANYWAY, the point is that we went to 7-11 to buy a sandwich (as a cake) for Muthu cos there were no other stores open. Haha. Somehow I think we managed to get a candle. & we sang bdae song for him! He said it was one of the best celebration he ever had. Haha. Of cos, I think we had some drinks too. In blk 33. =) Muthu commented that he had reached the quarter century mark! Wahaha. I thought it was a feat. Cos it still felt so far away to me. I just reached 20 at that time.
But look, in 3 days time, I would be at where he was. Quarter century old. What have I achieved in these 5 years, I wonder? Yeah, I graduated, I have a job, I travelled, I shifted back from hall to home, I managed to hang onto my relationship with jw for over 4 years. Oh. & how can I forget. I got engaged!! on Eiffel!! Haha. Probably my best achievement so far. =p
How amazing time flies. How scary, actually. Soon, I'll be 30, then 40, and then hit the half century mark! Haha. It's precisely why I keep telling myself I need to cherish whatever time left I have in my life. You never do know what's going to happen tmr, do you? All we can do is treasure today.
A happie bdae to me in advance.. congrats for reaching the quarter century mark.. =)
