24th Birthday

Damn. I’m not getting young.

Given the tight schedule, my upcoming Egypt trip and the need to go to Johor, I decided to throw an early birthday party.

With my mind occupied on many things (a big part thanks to the excitement of going to Egypt) I booked a VIP room at Red Box karaoke. Got a little bit of discount thanks to Khai Ng‘s member card.

The room could fit about 20 people, so I invited my main friends: (if the room could hold more people I’d invite more!)

– Internet Marketers
– SRDC’ians
– Ex-DJians
– Team Mercenaries
– RYM

Me and Yuenn. How come she gets more gorgeous with age? Hmmm…

Karaoke’s nothing without Khai. You know, this is actually deja vu. Look back at what happened 3 years ago.

My best best buddy for 2 consecutive years ๐Ÿ™‚

Wow, Evelyn Toh! Idol! She’s easily amused, and that’s what I like about her. ๐Ÿ˜›

With Terence Toh and Joshua Thong. Bummer I couldn’t join them and the rest of the gang for the RYM Camp. That would be the time I’m flying off to Egypt. ๐Ÿ™

Dulcie and Delia! ๐Ÿ™‚

Roy and Ziet. Was a pleasant surprise to see Roy here actually, when he’s based in Singapore!

Marcus Chang joined the party later. Excellent screamer. Can’t say the same for singing though. ๐Ÿ™‚

Only the people who came that night knows what song Terence was singing! Let’s leave it at that.

Kent, Ashley, Kenneth, Zim… Gangsta!

Screaming away…

I don’t know how, but someone included Thai songs into the play list! And since there were English subtitles, we might as well sing to our best word for word!

Have fun at the RYM Camp! ๐Ÿ™‚

Wrapped up the night with a birthday cake.

Went back to Johor the next day, and spent my actual birthday with Mom and sister Ashley at our new home there.

Thanks everyone and I feel so blessed to have you friends in my life!

Dee Ferdinand and Jodie O’Tania Wedding

Congratulations Dee and Jodie for tying the knot on 9th November 2010! May you both have a blissful, loving, everlasting marriage and journey together! ๐Ÿ™‚

NOTE: I didn’t take many pictures on my trip to Jakarta this time. It’s so embarrassingly little! But if you want to see them, they’re on my Facebook photo album.

Justinโ€™s Farewell Party

20th March 2010. Saturday. My crib. ๐Ÿ™‚

Justin Lee was going to leave for the Ireland! This came across as a shocking news to everyone at the RYM, but it’s been planned for a long time.

So we in turned planned up something for him: a farewell party over at my place. ๐Ÿ™‚

I rented the BBQ pits for the entire day and thankfully I managed to secure the place; sometimes booking in advance won’t help and moreover Saturdays are very popular as other churches and organizations also rent the place.



THE ORIGINAL PLAN: Kevin Avinash was to call Justin out for a casual game of pool at Casa Tropicana, and lead him to the BBQ pit where we would throw him the surprise!

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED: In a terrible mishap, Kevin SMS’ed everyone involved in throwing the surprise party… including Justin himself. ๐Ÿ™ Dum dumz.

LOL



Even I didn’t buy into the cheesy setup – it was only less than 2 weeks ago Justin approached me to see if I could rent the place for Fun Nite.

And Casa Tropicana is a very, very unlikely place to play pool even though the new place just opened up. (and that is at the first floor, I must add… which means you don’t need any key or access card to get there)



We should be glad that in spite of the surprise being blown prematurely Justin still obliged to play along, haha! ๐Ÿ™‚

What he didn’t count on was yet another surprise we had in store for him: we dunked him into the pool.

Boy Band WIN

Since Justin also knows Eugene San and Daniel Khoo, called my Ex-DJian friends over too.


L-R: Eugene, Daniel, Justin, me

Posaaaah!


The only reason this pic has some ‘boy band’ quality is thanks to Eugene’s dreadlock hair. ๐Ÿ˜›

Getting Dunked Into The Pool



Almost every other people – myself included – got dunked into the pool. ๐Ÿ™‚ Was a bit afraid the security guards would chase us away or the neighbors would complain to the Management. I’ve stayed here for almost a year already and no one THAT happening ever came to use the pool THAT way. Not after 10PM. ๐Ÿ˜› Hee hee!



Me and Debbie Debz Debz! Known her from Sunday School since we were 15! Barely changed. Good or bad thing, you decide!

At My Crib

Later we cleaned up the place and since the lights were mostly off at the pool area, we moved up to my place. I never had so many people in my house before! This is twice the size of the crowd that came to my place for housewarming last year.



Then the kids picked up my Darth Vader replica light saber. Never failed to impress the newcomers to my lair. ๐Ÿ˜‰


Turn to the dark side!

Ooowf! Castration!


Have fun in Ireland Justin! I’m sure many of us will miss you, and hope to see you again when you return a few years from now!
