Yeh i know, i know. It has been almost a week, but i was really busy and this is my blog, so who cares? Anyway, here i go.
My first 21st birthday was celebrated in penang, on the 6th of February 2011. It was an early celebration together with my besties since primary and secondary, together with the chinese new year celebration. It was also a gathering of sorts at Tao (ate a krazy amount of the cheese scallop *yum*) for us, since it was quite rare that all of us are able to gather together in penang. But they have been with me through thick and thin and i really really appreciate our long-standing friendship. To all those who have stuck by me for all time, cheers!
Anyway, it was kinda funny now that i think about it. I arrived late and i rushed to eat of course since the time limit given was only 2 hours. YES, i am late for almost 40 minutes, wasted my time. But still, i love the unagi, salmon, sashimi and scallop.(of cozzz!) After we were all watered and fed, (finally feeling rejuvenated), two of my friends left for the bathroom. They came back with the small tiramisu cheese cake from nearby Starbucks, and made the Tao play the birthday song on the speaker. I was shocked and totally gobsmacked. Needless to say, I.....
wanted to find a hole and crawl into it.
Hhaha, why???? U must ask. My dears, put yourself in my position. Haha, i begged them not to play the birthday song on speaker. When it was played, it was predictable that everyone, YES, everyone younger or older or even the baby have halted crying. The ah ma and ah pek at the opposite table saw me and was grinning!! Laughing at me. LOL, desperate to push the attention to someone else, i grab my friend's hand and wished her happy birthday. hehe, trying to keh si keh si that the birthday girl wasnt me. ahhahaha, my friend's mouth curved into a perfect O! hahah, it was priceless. if only i have a camera at that time.
But i was really really happy and touched as well. I thought it was a gathering for all of us, my birthday not included. Well, the usual routine continued, making a wish, blowing candles, receiving presents and also the thank you routine.
My thanks to Vanessa and Alan for the book, still havent finish reading, but it has brought me much laughter from the beginning. Even your private message inside was funny. haha. To Yee dear, my utmost thanks for the Parker pen, appreciate and lovin' it. To Chia Min, hahhaa the shirt was fabulous! There could not be a better present! (and the 2 ringgit in the plastic bag was a bonus ;D) and also joanne, carmen and jamie who helped to make my birthday a joyful and meaningful event. ^^
Fastforwarding to my birthday day itself, it was a... quiet day. Hahaha, i went to class, got through the day and went home. Andddd, this is where the excitement starts. *grins* Wearing the birthday present from chia min, i wore the brand new shirt to zhian may's place. It started off normal, zhian may drove me, phang ling, hin chi and chun yai outside for my birthday dinner. We came back home, sang the song, make a wish, blow the birthday cake and ate it to-gay-ther. ;D Zhen said my present was in the car, and i need to be blindfolded. To be clear, no, it wasnt a request. -___- I was escorted by Phang Ling to outside the garage. They peeled off my blindfold slowly, and in what seems like an eternity to me at that few seconds, they ended it with..
Rubbing a super nasty amount of flour mixed with something gooey on my face.
I screamed and shrieked in outrage. What? Do u think i am going to stomp my foot and say 'how dare u?' It is never too late for that u know, NOW IS THE TIME TO GET EQUAL. KEKEKE, THE HORN IS FINALLY OUT.
Did i mention it was four against one? Sheesh, and the gooey thing was actually yogurt. Anyway, i managed to grab ahold of a cup of yogurt *puffs up chest*, and it was revenge time. HEHE, revenge is best served hot. I made sure that i am not the only one who looked as though i survived a Tsunami, all of us looked equally like crap. on contrary to how i look, i felt as though i was in cloud nine. It was a krazy exprerience, but this for sure is my most enjoyable birthday. Thanks dears for all the effort u all spent to make this day meaningful to me. ^^
Also, a dedication to all my coursemates, especially calyn, song, isaac, chian seong, chester, kai waey, lee xien, ying xian and cally, thanks a lot for the present! I have decorated the contents with enough "blings" to blind a person, and i couldnt have love it more. Isaac, thanks for the cakes, i love it very much although it makes me put on a tremendous amount of weight ahha. Guilty pleasures indeed. *wink*
Last but not least, to all the well wishers, i really appreciate all the blessings from you all, my 21st birthday would not be complete without all of u. Thank u guys, All of u, again.
