Happy Birthday to My Dearest

Long overdued post. Celebrated Fadz birthday last Sunday with a surprise birthday bash, surprise here being redundant because for the 3rd time in a row, one of his stupid friends had to give the game away by messaging Fadz. 3 birthday surprises, 3 different stupid people. IF I EVER CATCH YOU SVEN, YOU ARE GOING TO DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH.

Ahem.

Back to what happened. Let's pretend we all don't know that Fadz knew there was a birthday surprise. I had booked an Aloha Changi Bungalow to celebrate his 21st birthday. Totally ulu, but the gorgeous fauna that made up the courtyard of the bungalow was absolutely fantabulous.

The bungalows are in a cluster of 3, so if you're looking for privacy, that's it. Changi Village is like 20 minutes away by bus. Haha!

Sobz, only a damn dedicated girlfriend would lug a stupid, fucking heavy X-Box from Bukit Gombak to Tampines by train. Somemore on the train, I was about to sit down when this guy cheong-ed and grabbed the seat just before my ass hit the plastic seat. Tamade. KNNBCCB to you. Hope your balls fall off you, you uncultured, boorish, no-class toilet cleaner!!!! Sorry toilet cleaners, no offense. Ok, no-class drug dealing pimp master!

Met up with Vincent and Rachel who graciously agreed to meet me early to decorate the bungalow. Thanks man! And they had a car! My saviours!

Credit also goes to Becky and Nazrul who soon turned up to help cut paper! Hehe...

So old school right? Anyway, we were rushing for time cos we work damn slowly and Fadz was arriving soon... Gosh, can you believe it... 21 year olds rushing out a poster using BARBIE crayons supplied by Rachel... Muahaha... embarrassing sia.

The finished product. Don't comment.

The birthday boy soon arrived and the plan was that I would fetch him from the bus stop. So how did I lure him to the chalet? Let me sidetrack here a little. A week before the actual event, I spun a ridiculous tale about how my ex-JC class was having a class chalet and made him agree to go with me. Anyway, he soon got a job at Carrefour and was actually suppose to work on that Sunday. I threw a hissy fit and made all sorts of excuses about how he just HAD to turn up. *snort* Ok, so I can't totally blame Sven for messing things up. I wasn't very convincing anyway.

But back to fetching Fadz from the bus stop. The plan was that because there's a long walkway from the entrance of the cluster of chalets to the actual chalet, I would message Vincent when we reached the entrance so that they could get ready the surprise. They were supposed to surprise Fadz when we opened the chalet door with Sparklers. Unfortunately, things never go right. They lighted up so quickly that when the door opened, Fadz and I were greeted by huge billows of smoke. The Sparklers had burnt out already. -_-''' Only Sern Yong's ones were left, and that crazy boy lit them up and started waving them at Fadz like joss sticks. That boy needs therapy.

Let the fun and games begin! Of course we need food, and lots of it. Had it catered, so everything was deliciously marinated, without me having to lift a finger. Haha!

Mmmm, don't you just like burnt BBQ food? The cookers were eating as fast as they cooked. The only way people got any food was by standing near the grill and snatching the freshly cooked food.

I asked for coolest pose and I get.... WTF??? (Fadz, Vincent, Sern Yong and Rajeev)

The very talented Miss Becky serenading Fadz with her rendition of Oasis' "Wonderwall", with lyrics changed to fit the occasion.

Cake time! FYI, the Bengawan Solo Mocha Cake is a very good face mask. Ask Fadz. He got a full face of it.

Awww, who doesn't love a man with goldfish cheeks?

Group shot!

And the Incredible Alan Hulkman attacks the cake!

Of course, we cannot miss the ritual sandwich birthday treat. Sigh, at least they were kind enough to remove Fadz' glasses. But when Rajeev jumped on Fadz first, I swear I heard all the air rush out from my poor baby. When the 9th guy jumped on him, I was seriously contemplating calling the ambulence. When he came up for air, poor Fadz was totally red in the face.

Give boys an X-Box and they'd be entertained for hours. Easiest way to keep your male guests happy, while the girls eat all the food!

Oily, tired and grateful that the day had come to an end.

Thank you Alan, Rachel, Vincent, Ling Ling, Alwin, Rajeev, Jia Quan, Eng Chok, Janelle, Oon, Ji Kun, Becky, Li Wern, Isaac, Yi Zhe, Sern Yong and Nazrul for making this happen! Rest assured I have given up on surprises and would celebrate Fadz' next birthday ALONE.

Happy 21st Fadz! Love you lots!
