And the story begins...: A Belated and An Advance Birthday Party

Alex birthday was yesterday, 27th November whereas tomorrow, 29th November would be Ken's birthday. Since there's only one day gap between these two birthday, me, Ah Wei, Jun and Guat Shan decided to organized a small party on the 28th November to celebrate both Alex's and Ken's birthday.

Credits to YK lady boss who took this lovely pic.

The party was intended to be small but somehow, it turned out bigger than expected. There were about 25 of us attended the party. Initially, it was only Ken's group and Alex's group. Then somehow Khai Chiah, Wei Chyi and the others came as well. I did not say it was a bad thing. In fact, the more the merrier, right? It was amazing how the Sarawakians, 7 of them (and they're tall) managed to fit into a little Kancil. It was really a waste I did not capture that moment like how Henry (about 6ft tall) and Alex (about 190cm) fit in the front passenger seat and how Henry rolled out from the car when he opened the door.

3 groups of cho tai tee kakis.

Just like all other birthday celebrations there were food, drink, games, chats and of course, cakes. The few differences between our party and normal parties are in normal parties, usually the birthday boy treats the rest or the birthday boy get treated but for this case, we paid for our own food. The second difference is in normal parties, we play games like maybe musical chairs, dance-and-stop and public canning but for us, the word 'game' only bore one thing to our mind. CHO TAI TEE!!

Why is Khai Chiah feeding Alex?

After eating and playing, comes the cake singing. Since the party was for 2 person, there were 2 cakes- a Black Forest and a White Lady. We sang several times for no particular reason and then we performed the usual tradition of biting the candle from the cake, which was pretty interesting. We ate and the excess bits of cakes were collected and smashed onto Ken's face. Alex was smart enough to run around and hid himself for a whole 30 mins! He actually went to a mamak shop, had a drink, went 7-11 for I-don't-know-why then only return also to have his face smashed with creams.

Some played cards while waiting and others waited patiently for the 'celebrity' to appear.

When Alex ran away, we patiently waited for him at first then we decided that while waiting, why not spend the time wisely and play some cards? That's Kampar entertainment for you ^_^ The party end not long after that. We paid and well, another round of cho tai tee, then we went home. As brief as I may describe the party, every minute spent on that moment was filled with details.
