The 8th 21st birthday party.

Actually, the title should be the 1st 17th birthday party.

But never mind.

My friends planned something for me. They informed everyone.

Except me. I don’t know anything.

If not for Best Bud Woo, the lead actor of the day would be missing in action. All the sabotage plans will be gone down the drain.

But of course, Best Bud Woo is an evil guy. He won’t let me off so easily.

Never mind. His birthday is just next month. My turn to play him.

Anyway, it was on the day itself I knew of the plans.

We had dinner at Waraku. So pleased to see Liji and Mr Poon around.

And Mr Poon said that there was a couple copulating around in public.

*coughs

Then Kavin got so high.

Liji had another party going on, so he had to leave early. But long time no see. Nice to see you around.

He kept asking why I didn’t blog. I changed address long long ago liao. That guy slow sia.

And soon, Luis, The Handsome Wan and Elvis came.

Elvis didn’t bathe again. After all the sweating from his frisbee and roller-blading at East Coast Park.

Someone, Miss Lim Shi Ying was super late. She reached at 10pm.

But better late than never.

Was so surprised when Suxian came in with the cake.

Made my birthday wishes. Was trying to focus on making my birthday wishes when the rest started chanting non-stop.

Let’s not say what they were chanting about ya?

*coughs

The video was great.

Thanks Best Bud Woo from stealing my baby photos from my mum. No wonder my mum was confident that my friends were planning something for me.

Thanks Desmond for coming up with the video.

Thanks Jeremy for coming up with the idea.

Thanks Chin Ya for helping me cut the cake. The knife they gave me, I could kill people with it.

The cake was great. It was unique and nice.

Thankfully it was Kung Fu Dunk instead of Secret. Otherwise The Handsome Wan will be laughing even more.

And to The Handsome Wan. You got a problem is it? Why laugh until like that?

And to The Handsome Wan again. No thanks for the cake on my face. I assure you will kena with bak kwa plus whipped cream on your face on your day.

Thanks Mr Poon, Kavin, Suxian and Miss Lim Shi Ying for the present. You guys rock.

Thanks STWC for the Holland jacket. I’ll be wearing it to Gary Chaw’s concert. I want to attract his attention.

I thought I would end up drunk that day.

Because they were telling me not to eat so much just in case I hurl.

They brought me to Clark Quay.

Soon, Why Chen, Raymond and Qiu Ping came.

I stared at that thing wide-eyed.

That reverse bungee thing. Suxian said it looks like fun. Your birthday we go try. I can accompany you if you want.

Everytime it went up, my heart went up as well.

Everyone was reassuring me.

Relax. It is nothing.

Ya lor. Not very high mah.

A while only. Never mind.

*coughs

You all go and try lah.

I dragged 2 guys whose birthdays are nearest after mine. Best Bud Woo and The Handsome Wan.

It turned out fine for me and Best Bud Woo.

But The Handsome Wan was in a delirious state.

The moment it went up, the feeling was normal. But when it came down, that was the fun part.

Because that thing was spinning as well, so at one point of time, our heads were perpendicular to the ground.

But it lasted for a while.

Before that thing stopped in mid-air and getting ready to land.

That was when The Handsome Wan looked downwards and got freaked out.

Wah. So high ah. So high. SO HIGH!!!

Both me and Best Bud Woo had to calm him down.

In the end, it was the guy who is of the biggest size who got freaked out.

The small kids were still sane and in one piece.

Everyone saluted me and called me brave.

*flattered

And also. Elvis got poled at the Danger signboard. The signboard was shaking after that.

While he was being poled, there was a couple looking on and the female covered her mouth with her hand in a shocked expression.

Alas! I could have been the one who was being poled. After all, it was my birthday celebration.

Heng ah.

It was a memorable day really.

I enjoyed it very much.

Of course, we should let people who talk a lot but don’t dare to try like Elvis try this bungee thing.

I reached home. And read the wishes on my 2 birthday cards.

Of course, I replied one by one to everyone of you guys according to what you wrote on the cards.

And of course. I was touched by what Why Chen wrote.

I got a shock when I opened her card. I saw that page full of colourful words. Really touched by what she said. She still remembers a lot of things. Those little things that I did for her way back.

And flattered too.

I sent an essay-like thank you sms to her.

Such great friends.

Now that my 17th birthday is over, it’s my turn now to do something for them on their birthdays.

Especially yours.

Why Chen says, Ah Seow is a quiet and mysterious guy.

I’m still one quiet and mysterious guy, you don’t know what I’m thinking. And it is because of this that I can come up with surprises.

*grins

Full of ideas.

I went cycling today.

Actually, I go cycling almost everyday. =)

Anyway, I thought about yesterday’s celebration you guys done up for me. Really pleased with that.

Yes. It was memorable.

Now it’s going to be my turn to do something for my other friends who haven’t passed their birthdays.

I have a lot of ideas swimming in my mind now.

After the birth of YRJS Film Productions, Pek Pek Film Productions and Lobocop Productions, I guess it is time for Ah Seow Film Productions too.

Of course, I’m a seasoned warrior when it comes to blogging.

But a noob when it comes to video-making.

I need to collaborate with the much bigger film companies for videos.

As Why Chen said, I’m quiet and mysterious.

Meaning that I’m unpredictable.

And since I’m unpredictable, it’ll be easier to execute some other plans.

I’ll see how it goes. After all, I’m so free now. So there are many many more videos to go.

Always remember.

Now, here’s what you must always do when you want to give a present to someone.

Firstly, of course, you must go and buy that present lah.

Of course, guys, unlike girls, don’t wrap their present. Because they are lazy, or simply, their wrapping skills cannot make it.

So the wrapping part is optional.

If you chose not to wrap the present, please remember to tear out the price tag.

After I accepted my birthday gift from Mr Poon, and was just about to take it out and see, I asked if he remembered to remove the price tag.

He gave his trademark stunned face and took it back and searched and confidently passed it back to me.

Just when I took out the gift from the plastic bag, Jeremy saw the price tag dangling at a corner of the gift and tore it out.

*coughs

Yes. The rest don’t laugh.

If you chose to wrap the present like STWC did, please remember to tear out the price tag too.

Just now, Best Bud Woo sms-ed me and told me to try the jacket on.

Despite being S size, it is too big sia.

Then I saw something dangling inside the jacket.

Whoever forgot to take out the price tag also.

Seriously.

I take it that I never see.

And the rest of you might want to take action to the one who is supposed to take out the price tag.

Anyway, I don’t really care if the price is 5 digits with the decimal point or the $1.7 million pink Lamborghini present parked at my house.

I have such great friends. They make a difference to my life. That is priceless.

And I’ll willing to sacrifice my time to them too.

What more can I ask for?

我很感动。

To Desmond, Luis, Jeremy, Shi Ying, Lye Zhen, Best Bud Woo, The Handsome One, Chin Ya, Elvis, Liji, Kee Chun, Suxian, Tammie, Kavin, Raymond, Why Chen and Qiu Ping.

This is what I’m going to say.

一盏黄黄旧旧的灯
照亮这整个生日会
谢谢你们 为我庆祝
我很感动 我很高兴

Edit @ 6.01pm, 6 July 2008:

Thanks Yonghui! I’m so so touched.

LOL!!!

Anyway today is my dad’s birthday as well.

Here to wish him Happy Birthday too!

Even though he is a man of few words, he really taught me how to think properly.

If not for him, I’ll be now smoking and having tattoos of dragons, tigers, phoenix and merlions all over my body.

I’ll make you proud someday.

Feeling lousy.

It’s 3.11am. I was supposed to be asleep.

Seriously. I should be asleep due to the influence of alcohol.

But after being semi-conscious for 1 hour on my bed, I’m widely awake now.

Yeah. Courteousy of Best Bud Woo and his younger brother. Somemore where got people mix half a cup of absolut vodka with such little Coke?

Might as well don’t mix.

In the end, I don’t even taste the Coke. The mixture that turned out was horrible.

And because it tasted horrible, I downed it fast.

So from now on. I die die will not take in alcohol.

Somemore I’m only 17. Underaged lah.

Of course, my body couldn’t take it. And I felt as if I was floating. But I’m still conscious mentally.

Not like a certain Ong Junda who thinks he is very garang by being able to drink a lot.

He ended up drunk and hurling a lot.

I don’t see a point in torturing myself with alcohol. Moreover, it is bad for health.

Now, I want to sleep but can’t get to sleep.

Damn.

Oh well. I’ll never touch alcohol again. It doesn’t taste nice and makes you feel like crap.

This 萧 is zai.

Just take a look at this clip.

Of course. All 萧s are zai.

LOL!!!!

罗志祥 is zai. 小钟 can’t sing for nuts.

Seriously, 罗志祥 is damn good at imitating people.

Whereas 小钟 makes a lousy singer.

Both super good comedians.

Thanks for the wishes. No thanks to that one who never wish.

I was so touched. Some people got up early in the morning and sent me birthday wishes.

But then hor. I was woken up and was still blur to reply. When I was fully awake, it was 1pm already.

OMG~!!!

I slept half of my birthday away.

And cycled the other half away. I cycled to Labrador Park. Wanted to go to Vivocity, but it looked like it was going to rain.

And true enough, it didn’t rain.

*shakes head

Oh well.

I want to thank people. For their wishes. According to the time they sent.

The Handsome Wan
Ah Chua
Yvonne Yap (my cousin)
Best Bud Woo
Chew Soon Kueh
Wei Ping (BMT mate)
Ah Lye the fat
Suxian
Desmond
Raymond (Why Chen’s potential)
Kavin Aw
Why Chen
Setter Peng
Heow Hui
Eileen Ee
Chin Ya
Qiu Ping
Lye Zhen
Jeremy Tan
Luis Ong
Miss Lim Shi Ying (with her big big red caption at the bottom of the post)

Big big thank you!!!

I don’t know why they wished me happy 21st birthday when I’m 17 this year.

Only Jeremy got the age right.

Ah Chua’s wish was the dirtiest. R21 content. Let’s not talk about it. Want to know ask me personally.

Not suitable to be out on blog. =)

I was really surprised to see this alien number which I’ve never seen before, who turns out to be Raymond. I accused him of stealing my handphone number. But forgave him soon after.

I was ticked off by his adorable woman soon later in her sms.

Fierce sia. =P

Hey Raymond. Get her. I’ve helped you test water already. If you get bullied she’ll protect you.

=)

And it was a ploy. She was using him to test if I would bully him before she shoots back at me.

Which she did.

A total of 6 people successfully woke me up in the morning.

If it were any other day, I’d have cursed and sweared. But today, I give you all special discount.

Hope you guys have a nice day too.

I was wondering what happened to that guy who wished me last year.

He wished me last year to pass my driving at my 1st attempt.

This year, he is missing. He still owes me money. A lot of money.

Since he never wish me today, I shall charge him interest. 21% interest.

*coughs

I’m 17 this year.

Correction. I’ll charge him 17% interest.

Late King Ong. Got money to bet no money to return me. Never mind. Now not even a birthday wish.

*fumes

You watch out. I’ll buy 2 bottles of whipped cream just for you.

*evil grin

Even though I spent my birthday alone cycling, it has been fruitful.

It has since been a long long time since I cycled. Took all my pressure away. I felt carefree.

At least I did what I want to do during my birthday. No regrets.

Now for birthday wish.

Of course, I’ll keep it a secret.

I’ll disclose the other birthday wish.

*I hope I won’t strike/mount/whatever just don’t do anything with the #$%& kerb on my TP test.

By the way, I listened to the radio. The DJ was talking about the traits of those born on 1st July. For guys, we are the sensative new age guy.

Meaning that girls who have guys born on 1st July are lucky because we are sensative to their feelings.

I don’t know if it is true or not. I test first then I tell you all.

And some other traits also. Mostly are positive. The only negative one will be we tend to be emo at times.

Aiyah. In short, those born on 1st July are zai.

Edit @ 12.31am, 3 July 2008:

Yes Ah Lye the fat. I’m open to treats anytime and anyday.

Hahaha.

Don’t treat me anything spicy can liao.

Meanwhile, we can also discuss what we can do on Ah Chua on his big day.

And I’m here to add one more guy to the list who wished me for my birthday.

It’s belated, but I appreciate the thought.

Sorry, he is not Late King Ong. That guy needs several reminders.

Thanks Mr Poon, for waking up to sms me after 20 hours of sleep.

Yes. 20 hours of sleep.

I was equally stunned. But come on. He’s Mr Poon. 20 hours of sleep is nothing for him.

1 July 2008

Ok. Today is my birthday.

Happy 17th birthday to me.

Sorry. Since I’m 17 this year, means I’m still legally underaged to drink alcohol. According to the law.

Anyway, happy birthday to the following people also.

Ruud van Nistelrooy
Patrick Kluivert
钟琴
林宥嘉 (exact same day sia)
Princess Diana
Liv Tyler
Pamela Anderson
侧田

I’ll be hiding one corner today.

To prevent people from trying to sabo me today. After all, I did so many wicked things to people during their birthdays.

*coughs

And I’ve bought a fellow 萧 album.

Now my birthday wish.

*I hope I won’t strike/mount/whatever just don’t do anything with the #$%& kerb on my TP test.

2 for $20.90

I’m going to avoid eating chocolate ice cream for this week.

Seriously.

Today, I decided I was in need of ice cream. And since 7-11 ran out of those kind of 2 for $4 offer ice cream, me and Best Bud Woo went to the nearby petrol station in search for ice cream.

He saw Ben and Jerry’s selling at 2 for $20.90.

I decided since it’s 2 hours before my birthday, maybe I should treat him.

And bought 2 tubs of 473ml of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream.

I was shicked when they told me that they had no spoons.

We had to go to McDonalds’ to get spoons.

Soon, we were at the pull-up bar.

Totally shocked to find the 473ml of ice cream filled to the brim.

And let me tell you. You can die eating this 473ml of ice cream.

It is damn a lot lor.

Barely halfway I felt thirsty.

Madness.

2 of us eating 473ml of ice cream.

It would be just nice if 2 persons share one tub.

Oh well.

Ice cream. Nice but too much can kill.

The 7th 21st birthday party.

Yesterday was Lye Zhen’s 21st birthday.

The man himself generously treated all the friends he invited over a dinner in a posh cafe at Furama Hotel.

The time to meet was set at 6pm.

As usual, Best Bud Woo was late.

Since when he was not late? Even during the normal la kopi sessions we have, he can be late for up till 45 minutes. Even when the coffeeshop is just 5 minutes from his house.

But no matter how hard he tries, he can never be and will never be the world record holder of being late.

Anyway, he reached around 6.45pm.

Someone just needs to teach him a thing or two on punctuality.

Anyway, me, Jeremy and Kavin met at Jurong East MRT station platform.

Kavin is super on time. He is really a loyal friend. And we went off to head to Coffee Bean to quench our thirst and to wrap Lye Zhen’s birthday present.

And the wrapping paper? Kavin was told to buy it.

In the end, he found one small piece of wrapping paper at home and brought it.

By the time the paper reached Chinatown Point, it looked like kiam chai.

To hand the task of wrapping a present to 3 guys who are noobs in this field is totally a wrong idea.

These 3 guys stared at the wrapping paper and the present and looked at one another before Jeremy decided he wanted ice blended mocha.

And this China guy at the Chinatown Point Coffee Bean outlet.

The way he speaks English. I don’t understand sia.

Me:
Can I have 2 ice blended mocha?

China guy:
Di you wan kim?

Me:
Sorry. Come again?

China guy:
Do you want kr-im?

Me:
Sorry. I don’t get what you are saying.

It turns out that he was asking me if I wanted whipped cream in the ice blended mocha.

Piang eh.

He is a China guy. I can talk Chinese. Then talk Chinese lah. I’m not a jiak kan tang guy. I top the class when it comes to Chinese essay writing you know.

But for other aspects, I’m not that good.

Anyway, after the ice blended mocha came, the 3 guys continued to stare before Jeremy decided that we anyhow whack. Anyway, Lye Zhen won’t know that we anyhow whack.

I mean, who cares about the wrapping paper when the birthday present is the real thing?

And because of Jeremy’s innovation, somehow, he managed to create pattern on the way he wraps. But it is darn obvious that it was the work of a guy.

Surprisingly, it turns out well.

That’s why I always say.

STWC. We improvise. Anything. Anytime. Anywhere. Anyhow.

And finally, Best Bud Woo came. And we made our way to Furama Hotel.

And ever since Kavin and Hongjun reached that place, they never stopped eating.

Especially Kavin. He wanted to eat the whole cafe down.

It was a buffet dinner by the way.

The desserts were really good. The main course was so-so. But it is worth it by just eating the desserts only.

And the way Kavin eats the dessert. Those kind of small small jelly on a spoon-like mini container. The way he stuck the whole mini-container into his mouth, thinking that the container was a spoon.

We could die laughing.

And of course, we saw Mun Keong around. Lye Zhen’s best pal in JJC.

And this girl called Yixian. She turns out to be from Jurong Primary School too. And also in the same Primary 4 class with Luis and Best Bud Woo. If I’m not wrong, Alison is also in the same class with her from Primary 1 to Primary 3.

But I don’t remember seeing her before, despite her class being next to mine.

Anyway, according to the birthday boy, she was just a friend.

*coughs

I wasn’t the only one coughing. Everyone else did. Some even coughed louder than me.

Anyway, we concluded that Lye Zhen’s claim of him and the girl were just friends were simply nonsense. Darn obvious.

Now I can ask him this question. I asked this same question to Joe Wee 2 days ago.

Eh. When geting married?

Soon, we proceeded to Kbox for some sing song session.

The song 无辜 is a cannot-sing-song. This song made me 破音.

Seriously. I feel so sian.

Anyway, Elvis makes a lousy singer. Whatever you do, don’t be a singer.

But of course, Junda is more jia lat than you. The way he sings is like how a chicken is being slaughtered.

I really miss Zi Cheng around. At least we got a zai singer. Somehow, I feel irritated when Elvis anyhow sings. Corrupting the songs that should sound really nice.

But anyway, we were feeing so high, and at that time, Elvis was mad already under the influence of alcohol.

I understand. But I felt like pouring cold water on those who were mad.

And that includes Best Bud Woo, who hugged the microphone and sang despite the whole KTV system being shut down.

And shoes of all sorts of brands started flying towards him.

Poor Lye Zhen. Being the birthday boy, he was being forced to down several mugs of beers.

After that, he started going haywire.

His face was damn red. Even redder than the Spain national jersey you see in Euro 2008.

Soon, the effect of alcohol started to kick in.

He started become semi-conscious. And hanged a plastic bag on his ears. And expected the expected.

He hurled. All the crap that he has taken before came out.

Later on, his face was as white as the Fuhua Secondary School uniform.

Heng I didn’t drink. Because I don’t like beers. If it were Chivas, of course I’ll whack.

But if it were Chivas, not only Lye Zhen will be hurling. Desmond will be hurling as well.

For your information, Desmond currently holds the record of the longest distance hurled.

He hurled all the way from the National Library to Jurong East.

Actually, he already started hurling at the scene when we drank the Chivas. Means from Baccarat to National Library to Jurong East.

Hmm.

Let me quote this line. You should know which song this is.

啤酒伤身体。

I hope I don’t end up like Lye Zhen.

I don’t like beer. I’m guai. I don’t drink.

Perhaps you might want to make me hurl by making me drink lots of Pokka Green Tea.

But I think you’ll only make me want to pee a lot.

And someone send me pictures please.

Otherwise I can’t come up with an EP post for Lye Zhen.

Edit @ 12.24am, 30 June 2008:

Hmm. Seems like I’ve received 3 very negative comments.

So sorry about it. I’ll edit some parts of the post which I deem is neccessary.

Meanwhile, I guess it is time to change the way I blog. Since I have to change the way I blog, now I have to think about how I am going to go about doing it.

Thanks for the feedbacks. Negative or not.

I’ve regained freedom. No more work commitments.

Doesn’t mean I have lots of time to blog also. I’m going to cycle like there’s no tomorrow.

Can’t remember when was the last time I really cycled. Short trips to places like JP don’t count.

So I’ll be on my bicycle most of the time next month. Before school term starts and I’ll have no time for all these cycling trips.

As for now.

I want to watch the Euro 2008 final.

Edit @ 3.35am, 30 June 2008:

Hahaha.

I felt a bit cheeky at the time I was blogging.

But after that I felt a bit wrong lah.

A bit over already. Because usually the way I blog, not really that over.

Maybe too long never blog already, that’s why.

Of course, sometimes I get really off-form during blogging. Either end up exceeding the limits, or I can’t put my thoughts in my post.

And of course, everything is in words, sometimes can’t really tell the tone used properly.

Something that should sound funny end up sounding serious. Then end up some people misinterpret.

I should learn how to put smileys or emoticons in my posts. Seems like I seldom use them in my posts.
