my absolutely lovely cake!
YEs ...this is a loooong overdue entry on my 21st birthday party! It was a great party for me....got to all the friends that i haven't seen for a looooong loooooong time. It was great that they bothered to show up and it really made my day. Would really love it if Eileen could come but she couldnt.....but she still gave me the best surprise of the day! She sent me a mango cake in the afternoon! Was pleasantly surprised...hee...and the cake's real yummy!! Thanks to eileen sweetie.
Oh well, the party concluded about a month of preparation involving my WHOLE family as well as Alvin as well. Poor them...gotta work so hard for me! Haha...pampered pampered me! I love all of them!! Me mum even took leave to prepare all the stuff for me...and she did spend a whole lot of $$ as well....sigh....but still...i enjoyed myself and thats the important thing right? Hee....
Bought mainly balloons as decorations....pretty pretty pink metallic balloons...as well as pastel pink and white balloons with "PRINCESS" written on it with glitter! Absolutely beautiful....i still have them on my bedroom wall. I also got this banner thing for guests to write on....though the color dont match my theme....but it's a nice keepsake to remember the day!
Another pleasant surprise was the fact that most of the hall people came in pink! They were like the only ones who adhered to the dresscode lor...haha....didnt expect but i liked that! It was really nice.....came out really well in the photos and my mum was surprised as well. Thanks guys!
Had to go around entertaining the people i invited....but inevitably i had to neglect some....feel a little bad about that...but that's the way it has to go right.....i cant split myself into soooo many parts to cater to all people at the same time. But the fact that i get to see all of my friends make me really happy that day. Feel so touched...really....and after the whole party...i really felt like crying...and i did....cos it was a sweet sweet experience.....one which will remain etched in my memory for many many years. I guess it achieved its goal...hee....it was indeed a memorable day.....
Cant help but feel emotional after that. One was because i feel really different then....as if i had really grown into an adult overnight. Another reason was because i feel so blessed....like i was being loved by so many people. My family...my friends...my relatives...my godbrothers...my dearest darling.....didnt realise so many people cared so much for me. Really grateful to my godbrothers for being so sweet that day too.....
Memories are still so fresh in my mind...though it has passed for quite some time already...and i have been overwhelmed by all the happenings around me since then. The endless projects and presentations....assignments...and now exams really took my mind off that day ever since the end of the party. But looking at all these pictures....it really brought back all the memories....i feel like crying again...........
Love ALL my friends....especially dearest Kristy...Mabel....darling Alvin....and my beloved mommy and daddy and my sweet lil' brother. I guess it was you guys who really made it a really special day for me........
And as for everyone who turned up....i really appreciate it! Really....it wouldnt have happened without you guys.....thanks soooo much......
