My 23rd Birthday!

If you don't know when's my birthday, you're not fit to read my blog. HAHAHAHA! Just kiddin' :D LOL! It's almost 5 months past my birthday and I'm blogging about it now...WOW! LOL!

Yes, God introduced me to this world via my parents on this sacred date - 7th August. HAHAHA! Ok, the sacred part was a joke. LOL!


Yup, I’m really privileged this year :D My birthday was celebrated FOUR TIMES! :D The first birthday surprise was already blogged in the month of September called “Footprints Birthday Surprise” :D

This blog post covers the 2nd, 3rd and 4th instance of my birthday celebration :D Mainly the 2nd instance actually since it was planned by me. HAHA!

The 3rd instance was celebrated with my church friends from Heart of God church in Orchard over a meal and supper J

The 4th surprise birthday celebration was with our extended Pumpfest family where they surprised me during Pumpfest Homecoming :D

Yup, my “official” birthday celebration was held at my previous house’s function room, at Eastpoint Green Condo :D Haha

Since FOOT’12 was recently over, I decided to ride on the novelty of our newfound friendships and invited my whole DOMA orientation group over to celebrate my 23rd year of being alive with me :D

The 7 of them depicted below is the “first wave” of people to arrive. LOL! They started the party going by Saboteur-ing. LOL!

The early birds Ryan, Terry, Calvin, Yu Xin, Teo Sian, Wei Chong and Chor Seng :D
Ok, while waiting for the rest, we saboteur-ed lor…HAHA! I still remember how Teo Sian destroyed the whole game by confusing everyone. LOL!

He randomly disabled people from building and played mind games and all...and in the end, he was the spoiler. LOL LOL! HAHA! But that's what makes the game fun right? LOL!

When the rest arrived, we started makan-ing :D And soon enough, they were singing K in the karaoke room and some of us were below playing pool :D Here's a pool shot of Wei Chong and I :D

Wei Chong & me playing pool :D
Yup, it was a really simple get together to play games, talk and sing together on my birthday :D It really is an excuse to get together to catch up actually…Haha!

I shall let the pictures tell the rest of the story…We took A LOT OF PICTURES. The few shortlisted ones are the nicer shots, you can see them all on my Facebook page :D

Let's start the picture roll with the first guy to leave...HAHA! He came super early and left super early also...he had some ATC meeting or something... -_-" Haha!

Me & Teo Sian :D
Anyway, Teo Sian's in Taiwan for exchange now! And it's my turn soon! :D Like in a few days timeeee :D :D

Yup, Teo Sian has been a great help throughout FOOT. Being an ex-GL, he really helped to hype things up and make people feel comfortable with his LOL jokes and his spontaneous dance moves...HAHA!

And oh yes, must credit Kai Sen our photographer for the 1st DOMA shot...HAHA! Thanks for volunteering to be the photographer! :D

The interesting part about this outing is, the next day or the day after, we have our Pumpfest Homecoming 2012 outing and we are supposed to submit a video. So we used this outing to film our video...LOL!

So yup, we met up, ate, took a few photos and called it a day...here's the picture roll with my Heart of God church mates :D

The best thing about this surprise birthday celebration is their SURPRISE BIRTHDAY CARD!! :D I totally loved it! HAHA!
