[21st birthday party]

Had really great fun at the party! It sure was fun organising and hosting it! Erm, by hosting, I mean inviting my friends, talking to them etc. Can't have this party without my mum's help! She played a big part in this--food, place and gave me her suggestion of many decisions! She helped me in the areas where I can't split myself into 2. Esp at the part when we have to go down to deco the room. Haha. Thanks mum! And thank God for her! :) Her patience and her un-complaning attitude!

My emcees were great! Peter and John! They did a really great job! I really asked the right person! And it's really better that I just stand behind and not hosting the whole prog and be entertained by them! I am really glad that they are able to stall time when my computer cock up. Impromptu and really good at the brother-talk! Haha. Thanks alot pals! You guys were great! Thanks! I owe you one! :)

The food was good. In many people's opinion. Didn't get to try the dessert though and many dishes too. Haha. But I'm glad everyone said it was good.

It was nice to see my cousins again though I didn't get to talk too much with them. Haha. But it sure is nice! :) But last minute, people did back-out. Was quite sad about it :( Oh well.

The people who came were my primary sch friends, sec sch, ntu mse clique, ntu crusaders, family and chruch friends! =))

The highlight of the party was the video! I believe, without the video, the party would just be something that would fade off in the memories of others. A beautiful and awesome video made by my clique! I was so touched that they did this! I started crying non-stop from the start to the end. Until Yixian had to offer me a piece of tissue to wipe my tears. Haha. Was more touched than laughing my way off. Haha. But it was still funny!

Thank each one of them: Wanting, Jue Xuan, John, Peter, Wee Siang and Qiao Yong for taking time to make the video and come out with the lyrics! Haha. It sure was a nice one! =)) Check it out below!

Well, hope that my romeo will come soon! I'm still waiting. Haha.

On another note, I was telling my bro that only on 2 birthdays, you'll receive many presents: 1st birthday and 21st birthday (if you organise a party). Haha. And it's really been a long time since I last received soooooo many presents! Each one is unique and beautiful! Really liked them much! =D

The birthday cards and wishes are also especially touching to me! I was reading each and every one of them twice over! I am very encouraged when I see the many wishes and hopes and encouragement for me to draw closer to God, walk in His will, wait upon Him and grow closer to Him! I am really touched! And it's just what I needed. Needed that boost to persevere in my life and press on despite circumstances. The going has really been tough recently. And this is an answered prayer from God! =) Thank you God!

On another note, I've been doing self-de-brief on my own. Haha. Pointing out what could have been better and what I should improve on. So here goes, for those who are orgainising a party:

  1. Should get someone else to handle the laptop (cos of my laptop screw-up, I missed quite a bit of the thank-yous said to me by my emcees and choon seang. sorry!)
  2. Shouldn't start so early at 6pm
  3. Should do more videos or performances. People are more entertained by that, than by quizes/games
  4. Pay more attention to the guests especially if I'm up on the "stage"
  5. Spend more time preparing. Too last minute already. Even the speech wasn't well-prepared nor written down in points :( I really regret this one.

Okay. That's all then. Overall, I had a memorable 21st birthday celebration. Sorry to those whom I didn't invite. Didn't have alot of space in my function room!

Photos will be loaded soon! Meanwhile, enjoy the video! =)

And another one on my milestones in life by Matthew!
